Osteoporosis
X-ray

What is it?
Osteoporosis is a weakening of the bones, that can lead to breaks which are difficult to heal.
Bones are made up of a thick outer shell with a honeycomb mesh inside. Osteoporosis occurs when the gaps in this honeycomb become bigger making the bone fragile and brittle causing them to break easily. The wrists, hips and spine are particularly at risk. What causes it?
During childhood and the teenage years the skeleton grows and develops, with the bones getting longer and the internal mesh becoming more dense until they achieve their greatest density when a person is in their late 20s.
A natural part of the ageing process is that bones get weaker in people over 30 and the honeycomb becomes less dense.
However, in some cases this occurs faster than in others leading to osteoporosis.
A poor diet in youth can also lay the foundations for the disease in later life.
Who gets it?

Women are particularly at risk because they have smaller more fragile bones to start off with.
This is complicated by the menopause during which the body stops producing oestrogen - a hormone essential for good bone health.
And because of the natural ageing process, the risk increases with age.
However, more and more research is indicating that the disease can affect younger people, with the National Osteoporosis Society reporting an increase in incidence of the disease among young women, particularly those who are underweight or who have suffered anorexia.
How can it be prevented?

Diet and exercise are the two key preventive measures.
The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy says skipping, jogging and aerobics are the best exercises to beat the disease.
A high calcium, well-balanced diet throughout life but especially while the body is still developing is recommended. Dr Nicola Keay, an osteoporosis researcher who has studied the effect of the disease on young women, said there were dangers in failing to find a balance.
"If you're doing too much exercise or don't eat enough, or if you don't do any exercise and eat lots of fast food, those extremes obviously aren't good," she said.
"The message is to get a balance - do enough exercise, eat a reasonable diet and don't go on a crash diet at 10 or 12 worrying about being too fat because it's the worst thing you can do for your bones."
What is the treatment?

Gentle exercise can help those who are already suffering the disease but have not yet suffered any fractures to rebuild bone strength.
Drug treatments can help restore levels of oestrogen in those who have stopped producing it, or target it to where it is needed in people who have low levels of the hormone.
These therapies include including hormone replacement therapy, oestrogen derivatives and a new generation of drugs known as selective oestrogen receptor modulators.

Youth 'cannot live' without web

A survey of 16 to 24 year olds has found that 75% of them feel they "couldn't live" without the internet.

young people at computersThe report, published by online charity YouthNet, also found that four out of five young people used the web to look for advice.
About one third added that they felt no need to talk to a person face to face about their problems because of the resources available online. The findings will be unveiled at the Houses of Parliament on Wednesday.
Despite high-profile examples of internet security breaches, such as the recent incident of phishing email scams, 76% of the survey group thought the internet was a safe place "as long as you know what you're doing".
"Probably the middle-aged are the most vulnerable," said Open University psychologist Graham Jones.
"I think children, teenagers and people under their mid-20s have grown up with technology and they understand it deeply.
"So-called silver surfers have got time to learn about it and understand it as well. One of the biggest problems for children is not that they are vulnerable but that their parents don't know what they're doing."
'Digital natives'
The survey, funded by the Nominet Trust - a charity that encourages the safe use of the internet - looked at how the web influences the well-being of people aged between 16 and 24.
Its author, Professor Michael Hulme of Lancaster University, names this age group "digital natives" as they have grown up in an environment rich with computer and mobile technology.
"For young people the internet is part of the fabric of their world and does not exist in isolation from the physical world," he said.
Youthnet, set up by the broadcaster Martyn Lewis in 1995, runs websites offering advice, information and volunteering opportunities to young people.
"The need for a safer, trusted [online] place has never been greater," said Fiona Dawes, Youthnet's chief executive. "Youthnet will be taking the insights of this report to heart as we plan the future of our services."

 WAVES  
Assalam-O-Aaliakum!
Fellows, how many of you have seen sea? I guess most of you. Do you notice the waves in the sea- their rise and fall. They have their crest and trough. Waves are made up of water particles and the position of each water molecule that makes the wave changes as the wave moves on.  No particle stays stationary. One time it is in its peak position and few moments later it is in the dip.
Life is like a wave. Each of us has up and down moments. No one in this world has ever come without his set of challenges. We are deluded to believe that happiness comes with money. If so happened, then the rich people with things would be happy. But their money doesn’t fetch them happiness. Yes, poverty can be a cause of unhappiness but that is no proof that only money can bring pleasure to one’s life.
Every one’s life has its own sets of challenges and pleasures. Life is full of stuff. Like waves, you cannot stop it. But you have a choice of the way you deal with it. You can be the one that toss and let be turned by waves. Or you can be the one that takes each thing that life throws to you and enjoy it like the sea surfer having fun riding on the waves.  Or you can be like the submarine that ride deep beneath the ocean and stays at peace even when there is storm raging in the sea. Some who fail to understand the nature of waves end up drowning.
Can you stop the waves in the ocean? You can't because it's the nature of the ocean. Likewise you cannot stop the waves in the sea of your life. All you can do is decide how to handle the waves of your life.
Give it a thought. You don’t want to be tossed and drowned. Attempting to surf can be fun but what if you get tired? The best way is to calm your inside, so that like a submarine, you can ride deep beneath the waves. Once you have peace within you, you will be saving your energy from drainage and will find in you more potential to handle life’s challenges.
Till next time, Allah Hafiz
