Green tea is the choice to live healthier. Many of the properties that can be learned from a healthy cup of green tea.
OCHA is Japanese for green tea. People's daily "Sakura Country" familiar with drinking green tea and black tea as often as we are. Once inside the philosophy of tea in Japanese culture. In fact, they had a tea ceremony.
Green tea became a worldwide reputation as a lot of research proving the benefits of healthy green tea. Many studies showed that incidence of cancer, heart disease, and various diseases caused by modern lifestyle is so low in Japan. The reason of course is the daily tea they drank.
Healthy compounds in green tea are catechins, particularly epigallocatechin gallate named or abbreviated as EGCG. Catechin is classified in the group of antioxidants that naturally exist in vegetables and fruit. Also exist in tea and wine.
"If you drink wine, we could be drunk. Now, instead of drinking wine, of course we choose the tea, "said Prof. Dr. Ali Khomsan, professor of food and nutrition from the Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB).
EGCG antioxidant power in this truly awesome, could four to five times higher than vitamin C and E. Not surprisingly, green tea is effective to inhibit cancer cell growth. Antioxidants in tea are able to kill cancer cells without harming surrounding healthy tissue. This work is similar to chemotherapy, but without side effects.
Luruhkan cholesterol
Another benefit of green tea is to lower bad cholesterol (LDL). Effect of cholesterol because green tea has been tested in animals and humans. Substances called polyphenols in green tea block the absorption of cholesterol in the intestine and encourage him to be removed immediately.
In a double-blind and randomized study at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, U.S., 240 adults were given an enriched green tea extract theaflavins and placebo. After 12 weeks, patients who received green tea extract showed that LDL and total cholesterol in the body of their fallen significantly compared with group receiving placebo.
How much we should drink green tea? Prof. Ali Khomsan invites us to be wise. "Everything that is excessive is not good, if less so," he said.
Brewed on High Temperature 80 Degrees
- In order for the benefits gained maximum body, preferably green tea is not brewed with boiling water too. Hot water used in brewing green tea should range between 80 and 85 degrees Celsius.
- There are many options to enjoy green tea: there is a form of powder, tea leaves and tea bags (tea bags). Green tea powder form can be enjoyed as a beverage, can also be mixed with ice cream or yogurt.
- The higher the quality of the leaf, the water temperature should be lower. Boiling water will ruin the tea leaves and causes a bitter taste.
- Better yet, place the pot or mug of green tea warmed before use so that the tea does not cool down faster.

Babies 6 Months Know Where the Good and Bad
New York- Every man is believed to already have an inherent moral stance since birth. Proven in infants aged six months was able to distinguish good and bad things before parents teach it. Professor Paul Bloom of Yale University wrote in the New York Times magazine that the baby 
was already preparing for a moral stance since birth.
This finding is unknown after the researchers asked the babies of all ages to choose characters that are seen as behaving bad or good. It turned out that these babies tend to prefer a good character. In addition, they also do not like naughty or bad character by the way do not want to see it and try to hit him.
Research conducted by a team of psychologists from the Infant Cognition Center at Yale University, Connecticut, this contradicts the belief promoted by the psychology of Sigmund Freud. Mr psychologist stating that newborns do not have a moral stance and require a condition to know right or wrong.
Meanwhile, in another study, researchers involved infants aged 6 months to 1 year and animated movies using the media to show good and bad characters from the stories. The result, approximately 80 percent of babies prefer good character who likes to help with ways to measure how long they view the photos from these figures.
"With the help of well-designed experiments, we can see that the thoughts, feelings and moral considerations have been formed since first year of life," said Prof. Paul Bloom, as quoted from ParentDish, Tuesday (11/05/2010).
Peter Willatts, psychology from Dundee University said the findings suggest a person can not enter into the mind of a baby and asked them to do something, but have to find out that what most attracted his attention. This shows that babies are actually able to determine what is good and bad by itself.
"We now know that in the first six months, babies learn things faster than we imagine. Sometimes what is mind and infants studied hard to understand," he said.

Dying For Choking Threatening Childhood
Children under the age of 3 years most pleased to enter something into my mouth because that's where they get the satisfaction. Negative effects, children die due to choking risk. Neck choking occurs when there are foreign bodies that enter and inhibit the respiratory tract so that the child choked. Any object that size could enter the mouth of a child is very likely engulfed, and then lodged in respiratory flow and cause choking.
Data Centers for Disease Control (CDC) as reported by ilansir from HealthDay, Tuesday (20/05/2010), citing 60 percent of cases caused by choking on food. 31 percent by other non-food items, and 9 percent again the cause is not listed.
When choking, children generally signaled by putting his hands around her neck. Other signs that may be accompanied, among others:
1. Not able to speak
2. Difficulty breathing or her breathing sound
3. Unable to cough
4. Lips, skin and blackened
5. Loss of consciousness or fainting
A child who choked should immediately get help, because consequences could be very fatal. During the airway is blocked, obstructed the supply of oxygen to the brain and can cause death. International Red Cross recommends the approach the five-and-five on first aid in case of choking.
1. Give five pats on the back using the palm of the hand, right between the shoulder blades
2. Give five pressures in the abdominal area using Heimlich maneuvers.
3. Perform alternating two steps above, again and again until the objects that cause choking out.
Not only children who do not know where the dangerous and is not, even adults sometimes have to die because of choking incident.
Choking can happen when someone is drinking or eating quickly or in haste and in significant amounts, when accidentally inhaled food while laughing or crying and acute alcohol poisoning, especially during swallowing and chewing ability has been weak.
When someone choke point so that no obstructed breathing oxygen into the lungs. The brain will be very sensitive if the intake of oxygen is reduced and the long run will begin to die in the time between 4 hours to 6 hours. This is where the importance of first aid.

Babies Can Distinguish Toys Based on Gender
Can you distinguish a toy baby girl or boy? It turned out perfectly. In a room filled with dozens of children, a baby boy will be swiftly chose toy cars while female babies calmly took the doll. Before a child can crawl, trends are like a growing suspicion in society, that boys liked the robot-woman or toy cars and dolls.
In the study researchers gave seven different toys, and found the boys prefer toy car, digger, and the ball as well as ignoring the teddy bear. While the girls chose a teddy bear, toy-cooking dishes or other miniature colorful.
"Given that boys prefer toys that can walk or move while girls love the toys that have facial features or related to parenting," says Sara Amalie OToole Thommessen from City University in London, as quoted from Health24, Tuesday (20 / 4 / 2010).
In this study involving 83 children aged 9 months to 3 years and observed during three minutes of play time. Previously, researchers surveyed 300 adults to ask what the toy that came to mind first when dealing with gender. Approximately 90 percent said cars for boys and dolls for girls.
"We are very interested to see if the boys have different preferences about color. We offer pink and blue teddy bears, but these children did not show interest in the teddy bear at all," said Thommessen.
Based on this study found girls aged 27-36 months approximately 50 percent are interested in dolls and boys about 87 percent are interested in cars than the ball. These results increase the perception of choice of sex toys ever conducted on the study in 2001. However, socialization and environmental impacts also could not be ignored, because the selection of children's toys that can also be based on what is often seen by the child.
While still a baby, a father will tend to be more actively invited joking son, while the girls spent more time to talk. When older men more actively encouraged to explore the environment, while girls are encouraged to play quietly. This makes the boys more like cars, robots or other moving toys, while girls prefer things that have facial features or the game of parenting.

Sugar Solution Prevent Baby Crying When Immunisation
Toronto, When immunized, usually a baby will cry because the injections cause pain. According to one study, crying baby can be reduced by giving them sugar solution.
Quoted from the BBC, Thursday (13/05/2010), research conducted by a team from the University of Toronto shows a few drops of sugar solution can reduce the number of babies who cry up to 20 percent during the injection. In addition, the solution can reduce the duration of crying babies up to 10 percent.
This conclusion was based on clinical data from 14 previous studies, which observed 1674 times injections. Sugar solution used has a content of 30 percent, while the age of the baby involved is less than one year. Solution consisting of sucrose and glucose were given only in small quantities, ranging from a few drops to 1 / 2 teaspoon. Giving is done through the mouth, before the baby is injected and afterwards.
Adam Finn, professor of the University of Britol support the research. According to all forms of efforts to reduce the pain during the immunization can be accepted, because babies tend to refuse to injection. "I support if there is further research on this subject. Parents would also be happy if the baby does not cry," said Finn.

Beware of Children Who Could not Stop Eating
Every parent would be pleased if they see their children have a high appetite. But if the child has a voracious appetite should beware. I could have a rare genetic disorder is due. As experienced, Ethan Starkweather (9 years) from Oklahoma who suffered a rare genetic disorders known as Prader Willi Syndrome.
This condition is triggered continuously want to eat that make obesity worse and becomes a disease that can not be cured. Due to this condition, the family was forced to change Ethan's house to make it easier to live with this disorder. Prader Willi is caused by mutations in genes that are marked with brain dysfunction of the hypothalamus and pituitary glands, causing hormone disruption.
Prader Willi is usually associated with chromosome 15 and gene OCA2. Children with this syndrome will be born with a sickly, weak muscle control and has a weight below normal at first.
"But at ages 1-6 years he will develop a voracious appetite that led to his being fat is not healthy. Parents need to hide or lock the food, because they would never be satisfied," said Dr Kent Holtorf, an endocrinologist in Los Angeles, as quoted from AOLHealth, Wednesday (12/05/2010).
The greatest problems of children with this syndrome is to maintain her weight. Besides these children are generally shorter stature than other normal children, have problems with mental development, breathing, balance, growth rate, thyroid hormones and sex hormones are low.
Children who have this syndrome tend to have symptoms such as almond-shaped eyes, delayed motor development, an insatiable appetite, there are such lines or bands in the skin, rapid weight gain, skeletal abnormalities of the body, a slow mental development, testicular tidka down on the boys as well as hands and feet is very small compared to the body.
Doctors often have difficulty in diagnosing this disease and should always be under control. Treatment today is the use of growth hormone to reduce body fat and several new diabetes drug to slow her appetite.
"When these children were born, they initially had difficulty with your appetite. If a parent has a child with a voracious appetite and muscle weakness, genetic testing should be done to get the right diagnosis," said Dr. James Sears, a professor of child health. Dr. Sears said it is important to get the right diagnosis for patients with Prader Willi. Ideally, children with this disorder must perform strict low-carbohydrate diets.
But this only seems easy to say and difficult to do, because these children have a hunger that high all the time and it's hard to feel full. For that needed the cooperation of all family members, friends and the neighborhood. Children with this syndrome can actually have a normal life, but this is often hampered by illness at risk of obesity that makes heart disease, diabetes or a problem with the bone.

Excess Mother's Milk For Infants Health
The advantages and benefits of breastfeeding can be viewed from several aspects: nutritional aspects, imunologic aspects, psychological aspects, aspects of intelligence, neurological, and economical aspects of the postponement of pregnancy.
1. Nutrition.
Colostrum Benefits,
- Colostrum contains immune substances, especially IgA to protect infants from various infectious diseases, especially diarrhea.
- The amount of colostrum produced varies depending on the suction baby's first days at the birth. Although slightly but enough to meet the nutritional needs of infants. Therefore, colostrum should be given to infants.
- Colostrum contains protein, vitamin A and contains high-carb and low fat, so in accordance with the nutritional needs of infants in the first days of birth.
- Helps remove dirt infants meconium is first greenish black.
The composition of breast milk
- breast milk easily digestible, because in addition to containing the appropriate nutrients, also contain enzymes to digest the nutrients contained in breast milk is.
• Breast milk contains nutrients that are useful for high-quality growth and development of intelligence of infants / children.
• In addition to a high protein, ASI has a comparison between Casein Whei and appropriate for babies. Whei ratio with Casein is one of the benefits of breast milk compared to cow's milk. Breast milk contains more of the 65:35 whey. Protein composition of breast milk causes more easily absorbed. While cow's milk has a ratio of Whey: Casein is 20: 80, so that is not easily absorbed.
Composition of Taurine, DHA and AA in human milk
• Taurine is a kind of amino acids in human milk second most who serves as a neuro-transmitter and an important role in brain cell maturation process. Experiments on animals showed that taurine deficiency will result in the occurrence of retinal disorders.
• Decosahexanoic Acid (DHA) and Arachidonic Acid (AA) is a fatty acid long chain unsaturated (polyunsaturated Fatty Acids) necessary for the formation of brain cells are optimal. Amount of DHA and AA in breast milk is sufficient to ensure growth and intelligence. Addition of DHA and AA in the body can be formed / synthesized from its constituent substances (precursors) that each of Omega 3 (linolenic acid) and Omega 6 (linoleic acid).
2. Aspect imunologic
• Breast milk contains anti-infective substances, clean and free of contamination.
• Immunoglobulin A (Ig.A) in the colostrum or breast milk levels are quite high. Secretory Ig.A not absorbed but can paralyze pathogenic bacteria E. **** And a variety of viruses in the digestive tract.
• Lactoferrin is a protein that is a component of immune substances that bind iron in the digestive tract.
• Lysosim, enzymes that protect babies against bacteria (E. **** and Salmonella) and viruses. Total lysosim in 300 times more milk than cow milk.
• White blood cells in the breast milk in the first two weeks of more than 4000 cells per mile. Consists of three types, namely: Brochus-Asociated Lympocyte Tissue (BALT) antibodies Respiratory, Gut Asociated Lympocyte Tissue (Galt) antibodies respiratory tract, and Asociated Lympocyte Mammary Tissue (Malt) antibodies breast tissue.
• bifidus factor, a type of carbohydrate that contains nitrogen, the growth of Lactobacillus bifidus bacteria. These bacteria maintain the acidity of the intestinal flora of infants and useful for inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria.
3. Psychological aspects
• Confidence for breastfeeding mothers: that mothers can breast-feed with breast milk production is sufficient for a baby. Breastfeeding mothers are influenced by emotions and love saying to the baby will increase the production of hormones, especially oxytocin which in turn will increase milk production.
• Interaction of Mothers and Babies: Growth and psychological development of infants depends on the mother-baby unit.
• Influence of maternal-infant contact directly: the bond of love mother-baby occurs due to various stimuli such as touching the skin (skin to skin contact). Baby will feel secure and happy because the baby feel the warmth of the mother's body and heard the mother's heartbeat that has been known since the baby still in the womb.
4. Aspects of Intelligence
• mother-infant interaction and content of nutritional value of milk is needed for the development of the nervous system of the brain that can improve the intelligence of babies.
• Research shows that IQ in babies fed breast milk has a 3.4-point IQ points higher at age 18 months, 4-6 points higher at age 3 years, and 8.3 points higher at age 8.5 years, compared with infants not breast-fed .
5. Neurological Aspects
• By sucking the breast, neural coordination with swallowing, sucking and breathing that occurs in newborns can be more perfect.
6. The Economic Aspect
• With exclusive breastfeeding, mothers do not need to pay for baby food to infants aged four months. Thus it will save expenditure of households to purchase infant formula and equipment.
7th. Aspects of Pregnancy Postponement
• With exclusive breastfeeding can delay menstruation and pregnancy, so it can be used as a natural contraceptive commonly known as the Lactational amenorrhoea method (LAM)
