Researchers have discovered that children who eat a Mediterranean diet are much less likely to suffer from asthma. In fact, women who eat this diet while they are pregnant pass the benefits along to their unborn child.
The study was published in the British Medical Journal’s Thorax and detailed the benefits for children whose mother’s stuck to a Mediterranean diet during their pregnancy. They discovered that women who ate primarily fresh fruit, nuts, grains and vegetables passed on benefits to their children that reduced the risk of asthma symptoms.
A new ray of hope is there for the people who frequently suffer from asthma, rheumatoid arthritis or are susceptible to allergies or other inflammatory diseases.
A new study conducted by researchers at ‘Barts’ and ‘The London School of Medicine and Dentistry’ has found a key component of the body’s own responses to allergens. Allergens are the substances that cause the immunity system of the body to trigger a fight against the foreign bodies. These foreign bodies could be just dust, pollen, peanut, milk, penicillin etc. and since they are not recognized by our immune system, body reacts to them. The symptoms occur in the form of inflamed airway or runny nose or itching in the eyes or rashes on the skin. So this key component which triggers this fight can be targeted to reduce the allergic reactions.
Food is essential for sustenance and needless to say it is the basic requirement of life. The basic elements or constituents of food include the carbohydrates, proteins, fats and minerals. These are all cooked in a variety of ways depending upon one’s tastes and even drank if it is in the form of liquid.
The source of food ranges from plants to animals and to today’s what is called ‘RTE foods’ or the ‘ready-to-eat processed foods’.

These lawnmower injuries are among the leading causes of amputations in children. Such types of severe injuries caused by the lawnmowers very often require amputation or extensive reconstructive surgery.
“Otoacoustic emissions” are sounds that are produced by healthy ears in response to an external sound stimulation. First described by Kemp in 1978, normal hearing is regulated by a cochlear mechanism, present in the healthy outer hair cell, which magnifies the stimulus internally.
There are certain soft sounds, which a normal ear would produce in the response of the sounds which travel in. OAE or “Otoacoustic emission” testing is the recording of these emissions. Such echoes are not produced by a deaf ear.
Nail is a horn like structure on the edge of the fingers; to have long nails though is a symbol of feminism. Fingernails and the toenails are made up of a protein called ‘keratin’.
There are no nerve endings in the nail. The growth of nails is at an average rate of 3 millimeters per month. For the complete growth of the finger nails the maximum time required will be three to six months.
Calcium Channel Blockers are also helpful in reducing multiple risks involved in the Parkinson’s disease.

Next 50 years will be witnessing almost 32 times more technological progress compared to the progress made during the whole 20th century, according to a futurological vision advanced by Ray Kurzweil, an eminent computer expert from America.It is all about the speed of technological advancements. Current pace of technological progress is extremely high and it will reach at the higher levels with tremendous speed soon.
One of the most important features that would be characterizing these technological advancements in next twenty years should be the development of computers which will be almost at par with the human brains and human intelligence. “One of such outcomes may be artificial intelligence matching human intellect the 2020s”, Ray Kurzweil says.
Eva compounds, a patent invention that involves ‘injection molding’ concept for soles which have a treading surface of different colors, and which require cross-linking of two different types of granules for better expansion. ‘EVA’ has 4-60% of ‘vinyl-acetate ethylene copolymer’, which depends on the kind of addictive used for injection molding.
This addictive could either be cross-linking, expansible or thermoplastic. The permeability on EVA compounds is lower, making it advantageous for some products. The higher the vinyl-acetate content in these compounds, the lower the tensile strength, stiffness and softness would be; however, its permeability and toughness increase. These compounds are non-toxic, chemically stable and biocompatible.
Glucose monitors and so many other instruments would be available far cheaper in near future. University of Florida students have demonstrated an innovative way to use the airbrush to make ‘microelectrodes’.
The “airbrush” is a very popular tool for tattoo-makers and screen-printing for T-shirts. This unexpected technological application of airbrush has been discovered by a group of engineering students at the University of Florida who used to make paper aircrafts as their hobby.
