Genital herpes is so personal a health problem that people are very shy to talk about it even with their doctors. This sexually transmitted disease (STD) is caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2). It can be easily transmitted from one person to another during sexual intercourse or any kind of body contact. This health problem is very contagious because it can be spread by touching the person who has the virus on the surface of the skin. Genital herpes can also be spread by oral sex. HSV-2 is more common in women compared to men.

Symptoms of genital herpes

The symptoms of genital herpes can be visible specially around lips, genitals and anus. But the virus can be present inside the body even if the herpes symptoms are not visible. It can also be spread even if sores can’t be seen. Genital herpes symptoms look like blisters or ulcers.

Different people can be infected by genital herpes differently. In some cases the outbreak occurs within two weeks after the virus is transmitted. In some cases the symptoms can be seen after months, or even after years. Some people may suffer from painful genital herpes or some people can have painless genital herpes. Fever muscle aches, headache, painful urination, and vaginal discharge are some of the other irritable herpes symptoms.

Genital herpes can’t be fully cured but some medicines are available to treat the outbreaks and lessen symptoms. The two main prescription medicines are Famvir and Valtrex.

Famvir

Famvir is an antiviral medicine which prevents genital herpes from spreading. If taken immediately after the early warning signs appear, this medicine can also suppress the symptoms of herpes. It reduces the duration of suffering also. Famvir gives immediate relief within 24 hours from taking the medicine.

Valtrex

Valtrex is another effective medicine for preventing transmission of the herpes virus. But you should take safe sex measures to reduce that risk. Early diagnosis of herpes is important because it allows you to take Valtrex as soon as the warning signs appear.

Month ended yesterday the Minister of Health, Trinidad Jimenez, gave the deadline for implementing this measure – October – are few communities that have already made decisions and are developing experiences. Although there are.

For now, the SES is preparing a proposal he hopes a consensus with other communities before deciding how to publicize the public health costs of Extremadura. Some time ago already showed interest in developing this measure last March agreed on a Council of Interregional NHS, but in the long run because it gave priority to control spending on drugs, for which another commitment to informative bill.

Extremadura while it thinks, and there are communities that have rejected the proposal to provide such information to their patients. This is the case of Catalonia, Navarre and Husked. Others, such as Andalusia, and are carrying out pilot projects. On October 1 began operating experience in Costa del Sol Hospital in Marcella and within a year this autonomy wants all health centers and hospitals to inform the Andalusia’s, provided it presents no additional cost to the community .

More experience is the ‘bill in the shadow’ in Valencia. There has been reporting in situations of long hospitalization in years. In 2009, more than 200,000 invoices issued informative. Now, with his practice, which continues to expand, plans to introduce the bill information to the consumption of medicines in the same order?

The timing in the maximum for Health, Aragon has also begun to inform their users. The Department of Community Health has chosen a less direct stake to give information: it has posted on its website the cost of most common processes and not issued in the name of the city the price of a particular service, and may be consulted own initiative.

Researchers at the University of Granada and the University of Barcelona have discovered that treatment with messianic acid, a triterpene component extracted from pomade olive skin, inhibits HT29 cell growth of colon cancer treatment. Messianic acid is a natural element capable of inducing apoptosis or programmed death of these cells through mitochondrial intrinsic pathway. For this reason, scientists point to a new natural therapy for the treatment of carcinoma of the colon.

This was the first study to investigate the molecular mechanisms of ant tumor effects and pro-apoptotic messianic acid against colon cancer. The natural chemo preventive agents that are often part of our daily diet can become an effective and inexpensive way to control diseases such as lung cancer treatment. In recent years, there have been many investigations that have proven difficult triterpenes carcinogenesis by intervening in the processes of carcinogen activation, DNA repair, cell cycle arrest, cell differentiation and induction of apoptosis of cancer cells.

The triterpenes are present in a large number of plants used in traditional medicine and are known for their ant tumor properties. Are small messianic acid concentrations in some plants with medicinal properties, but the concentration in wax from olive skin is 80%.

The results of this study may support the use of chemotherapeutic agent messianic acid and cancer chemoprevention.

Why purple garlic in use for therapyA new research team of scientists from the Department of Chemistry and Environmental Technology (Tequila), Faculty of Chemical Engineering at the University of Castillo-La Manchu (UCLM) has failed to show that purple garlic is a source of medicinal and therapeutic properties. Investigations not only reveal the health benefits that have purple garlic, but it also freeze-dried extracts were obtained (a process used to preserve food the astronauts) for medical or nutritional and pharmaceutical.

Ignacio Garcia, head and one of the key drivers of these studies, said that these investigations began in 2000 at the initiative of a natural student Pardoners (Cadence), where it is grown in abundance purple garlic, after putting in value of the antibiotic effects of illicit extracted from garlic

Initial investigations, which have been supported medical services Gastroenterological Unit of Hospital Ramón y Canal de Madrid, focused on analyzing the cause-effect relationship between garlic and helicobacter pylori, a bacterium responsible for gastritis, of stomach ulcer or cancer processes such as MALT lymphoma.

Grace explained that the research and study “exceeded initial expectations,” because after making the first tests it was found that the benefits of garlic purple “were higher than the drugs themselves that come against these diseases.”

After seeing the benefits of garlic, the research work has focused on carrying out a perfect freeze-drying process of garlic extract, a method that would allow the removal of water by vacuum drying and low temperatures, so that “prevents its degradation and ensures its retention period to four or five years. “

The group in Spain and in Europe has patented this method, according to Grace, so that others cannot copy the intellectual property of the product. Now, the research focused on analyzing other purple garlic’s therapeutic effects, such as fighting cholesterol, its role as a vasodilator and antithrombotic and anti-tumor effects.
