The nutrition requires a variety of foods and their proper distribution throughout the day. More research is trying to make a distinction between genders with regard to what is most useful to present the food of each one of them. Below we offer recommendations as a result of three of them.
Coffee
About 2-3 cups of coffee a day can significantly reduce the risk of stroke in women, experts say the Madrid Autonomous University, who for 24 years were studied over 83,000 women. According to the Spanish researchers, however, this pattern occurs only in women with a healthy cardiovascular system. Problems in her coffee, not only will not help, but will hurt.
Reference: stroke is a consequence of a sharp breach in the blood supply to the brain (due to obstruction, rupture or strong contraction of blood vessels). Without oxygen, which is supplied with blood, brain cells die in a few minutes. So at a stroke providing immediate relief is crucial. According to statistics, stroke is the second reason (after attack) of premature death.
Apples
The apple extract reduces the risk of cancer, say U.S. researchers. Their observations show that it slows down and growth of an existing malignancy (eg adenocarcinoma). The experts from the University of Pennsylvania attribute this effect to those contained in apples flavonoids (which are found in large amounts in oranges, grapes, strawberries, plums).
Reference: adenocarcinoma is a malignancy arising in the tissues of the glands. It is the most common cause of death due to breast cancer, which is the second most common form of cancer (according to statistics, it is diagnosed in more than 10% of women aged 13 to 90 years).

With the advent of spring days many people know in advance that they will pay a high price for their negligence in the winter – Avitaminosis and poor function of the immune system lead to consequential health problems. The immune system is often referred to for health advice, but we know how it works in practice and what is its importance … Actually it combines a number of bodies that protect our body from foreign substances, bacteria and viruses. Organs of the immune system produce special cells (lymphocytes) and antibodies that recognize and destroy harmful substances. Thymus and bone marrow (a gland in the chest area) are considered major organs of the immune system. That is where lymphocytes are produced – the basis of immunity. Very important are the lymph nodes, which filter out foreign substances constantly in our body. The immune system is a reliable shield against many viral and bacterial infections, even against cancer. However, active immune system is responsible for some problems such as rejection of organs after pricking, the formation of Rh-conflict pregnancy and allergic reactions are also a result of the response of the immune system of the penetration of foreign substances. Spring is the period in which the body needs particularly to strengthen immunity. So – stop by and used mono-diets good food, first recommended specialists.
For its work the immune system needs a lot of vitamins and trace elements. Pay particular attention to antioxidants – these are mostly vitamins C, E and A. They neutralize free radicals and facilitate the work of the immune system. These vitamins are found in citrus fruits, carrots, liver oils. Important are flavonoids (contained in legume crops, tomatoes, peanuts), which not only deal with free radicals, but also have anticancer activity. The mineral substances are another component of healthy immunity, which may be delivered from lettuce, cabbage, broccoli and asparagus. Particularly important micro-nutrients are zinc and Selenium. Zinc (seafood, meat, nuts, eggs, cheese, cereals) helps the healing of wounds and recover strength. Selenium (liver, seafood, kidneys, wholemeal bread) is one of the known antioxidants, though not all its effects are studied. It is known that it hinders the aging process and allows to keep the freshness of spirit and healthy immunity. During this season you can look and immunomodulators – drugs that restore the functions of the immune system and strengthen it. The most famous natural immunomodulators are ginseng and Echinacea. It is important to know that immunomodulators can not prevent us from all diseases, and their continued acceptance can lead to reduced immune activity when the body is fully reliant on the adoption of incentive funds. So follow the directions on the adoption does not exceed the recommended dose and the period of their reception.
