Scratching your choice of location depends basically on the part of the body that itch. But if there are some parts of the body equally itch, then the level of enjoyment when scratched can be compared with each other.
In a study at Liverpool John Moores University, a professor neurosaintis compare multiple locations scratching among other arms, back and ankle. Some participants were given itching powder in these parts.
For 5 minutes since sprinkled itching powder derived from plant hairy African origin, the participants are prohibited from scratch and then asked to assess which parts of your body that feels the itch. Compared to the arm and back, apparently feels the most itchy ankles.
Similarly, after the participants were allowed scratching the body that feels itchy. When asked to give a satisfaction score between 1-10, then scratched his ankle when the average score is higher than most other parts of the body.
The results of these observations proves two things at once, namely that the most vulnerable ankles itch stimuli as well as providing the most current kenilmatan carded. The researchers said, the level of ecstasy equivalent to orgasm during sex.
"It is very interesting because so far back has always been a favorite location for carded when the body feels itchy," said Professor Francis McGlone who published the study in the British Journal of Dermatology, as quoted from Dailymail, Tuesday (01/24/2012).
The findings are expected to help overcome the chronic itching, especially those difficult to remove only the occasional scratch. People with eczema and psoriasis, for example, is often still feel itchy even after taking medicine and the skin is always carded.
Scratching ankle did not heal the chronic nature of disease. But by studying the nervous system in the ankle that gives a sense of satisfaction as the passage carded, it is expected that the itching in people with chronic illnesses can be overcome.
Small-scale studies report that supplements containing fat conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) may help children who are overweight to reduce the amount of fat, thus preventing the buildup of fat that occurs.
In this study, researchers found children who are overweight and obesity showed less accumulation of fat when taking supplements of CLA for 7 months compared with the placebo group. In addition children who consume these supplements also showed good levels of HDL cholesterol.
This proves that CLA supplements can help children reduce the buildup of fat so that the overall good for the health of children. Despite its effectiveness in children should be studied further. These results are reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. as quoted from FOXNews, Saturday (01/21/2012).
The study, led by Natalie M Racine from the University of Wisconsin-Madison involving 62 children aged 6-10 years who are overweight or obese. At random, these children were given CLA or a placebo that is sometimes added to milk once a day for 7 months.
Researchers found the CLA can help melt the fat body. In one recent study found obese women who have diabetes can reduce the amount of fat in their bodies by eating sulemen this for 4 months.
CLA is an unsaturated fatty acid that can also be found in products of beef, lamb and milk. However, CLA supplementation given to children in this study are generally derived from vegetable oils rich in linoleic acid.
Obesity that occurs in children should not be taken lightly, because it can be a serious problem. It is associated with risk factors for numerous diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, stroke and other diseases.
