There are also obvious logistical problems with fetal personhood bills. An estimated 10 to 20 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriages, with the actual number likely much higher as many women miscarry before they know they are pregnant. In addition, the risk of miscarriage is higher for specific groups of women, such as older women, women with weight problems, women who have already miscarried, those who have contracted infections or who have immune response issues, and those who regularly use drugs, including alcohol and nicotine.

As a result, the implementation of fetal personhood laws would require unconstitutional discrimination and invasion of privacy. If a fertilized ovum has the same rights as a person after birth, each miscarriage (or failure to implant) would need to be scrutinized for intentional or reckless neglect. Detection would only be possible by registering all incidents of unprotected sex, and effective surveillance would require regular pregnancy testing, in particular of women at risk of miscarriage (think mandatory weekly pregnancy testing for women over 40 until they reach menopause). Of course, no one is advocating this.

Proponents of punitive pregnancy-related provisions have, however, successfully advocated for the growing surveillance of pregnant women from marginalized or stigmatized communities through social services, and in particular through medical providers. The organization National Advocates for Pregnant Women has documented the growing arsenal of state laws that treat drug use and addiction in pregnant women as a form of child abuse. Because health care providers in all states must report child abuse to the authorities, this reframing forces doctors and nurses to breach patient confidentiality for pregnant women who admit to struggling with drug use or addiction. The predictable result is a breakdown in the therapeutic relationship at best, and at worst, a reluctance to seek care at all for the women who arguably need it the most.

 How To pregnancy Testing.....

Many of these bills are pushed through without consulting the medical community, which is the case for the bill currently pending in New Hampshire. House hearings are under way, and both pediatricians and obstetric-gynecologists will testify to its predictably disastrous effects on the provision of addiction treatment and child welfare.

To be sure, both child abuse and drug addiction are serious matters, which require appropriate state support. Attempts to redefine drug use or addiction as child abuse in pregnant women, however, disregard the medical and psychological needs of both abused children and pregnant women. Advocates of such legislation are attempting to transform the fiction of fetal personhood into law by appropriating the problem of child abuse and punishing pregnant women in need of treatment for substance dependency or addiction.

How To Pregnancy Testing ?

?

 In New Hampshire, a bill to redefine opioid use or addiction in pregnant women as child abuse is making its way through the legislature, despite vocal objection from the state’s medical community 

When should you test? You can take most home pregnancy tests three to four days before your missed period -- but if you test too early, you're more likely to get a false negative, where the test says you're not pregnant but you really are, says Laurence Cole, MD, professor of obstetrics and gynecology and chief of women's health research at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque.

This illusion is increasingly hard to sustain.

In March 2014, Purvi Patel, a 33-year-old woman in Indiana, was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment for, prosecutors claim, inducing an abortion. Patel has maintained she had a miscarriage, and has never tested positive for any of the abortifacients the prosecution claims she took. In fact, the pathologist for the prosecution partially relied on the long discredited “lung test“ to determine if the recovered fetus had been born alive: a practice from the 17th century disproven as bad science over a century ago.

From a medical perspective, fetal personhood bills make no sense. “Conception“ is not a medical term and is interchangeably used to refer to the moment an ovum is fertilized and the moment a fertilized ovum implants in the uterine lining. “Fertilization“ is a medical term—referring to fusion of male and female gametes to form a zygote—but not all fertilized ova implant in the uterine lining (that is: not all result in a pregnancy), and the precise moment of both fertilization and implantation is hard to determine. As a result, the length of a pregnancy is usually calculated with reference to the pregnant woman’s last period—when she clearly was not pregnant yet—because that moment is an observable factor that can be defined.

We all know how we cry tears when we are sad,  or geting butterflies in our stomach when we are nervous. These are simple connections between the mind and the body that are easy for us to understand. But what about the bigger issues, when the body gets ill, diseased, or damaged?

Now with Your Body Speaks Your Mind, Deb Shapiro—author of The Body Mind Workbook and Unconditional Love—shows you a practical way to learn the language of your body so you can understand how your thoughts and feelings directly affect your physical health.
The body shows us what we are unconsciously ignoring,denying,or repressing, she says. With her breakthrough book, readers learn:

• A system-by-system guide to your body that reveals what it is telling you about yourself
• A cross-referenced index of symptomatic illnesses, from headaches to pneumonia, and the emotional imbalances they symbolize
• Creative visualization and meditation techniques on CD to enhance your ability to listen to, communicate with, and heal your body see this next post.                                                                                                                                                      The Mental Health Foundation also notes that fewer than half of those who report mental health problems consume fresh fruit every day, compared with more than two thirds of those who do not report mental health problems. The issue here may be somewhat ‘chicken and egg’: does a poor diet contribute to the problem, or does the problem cause the lack of interest in eating healthily?

Asthma

Asthma Is not a grad problem in  the presents world.

“There are more hazards with undertreating asthma, such as losing days of school or even death,  says William Lunn, MD, the director of the interventional pulmonary service at Baylor College of Medicine, in Houston. “As a doctor, I would hate for parents to get scared by reports and decide that their kids should not be treated with asthma medications.”

 

 

What you may have heard:
 

Depandes Of your Care thats your child. Oral steroids suppress growth in children
Corticosteroids are powerful anti-inflammatory drugs that do a great job of suppressing the underlying inflammation that can lead to asthma attacks. They can either be inhaled or swallowed as a liquid, and include the drugs prednisone, prednisolone (an oral version of prednisone), Flovent, and Pulmicort. Although people often refer to them as steroids, they are not in the same class of drug as the muscle builders sometimes abused by athletes. You also may have heard that oral steroids can stunt a childs growth. says William J.

That's World's Fatest man see this.. who weighs almost 1000 pounds transported from his bed by SEVEN people using a specially designed stretcher for a gastric bypass and a 'second chance at a normal body'

• Andres Moreno weighs 960 lbs and has become bed bound in recent years.
• Team of seven had to help transport him from home to a Mexican hospital.
• The 37-year-old will undergo risky surgery to remove part of his stomach
• Surgeons say experience of operations on people of his size is limited
•  But Moreno is optimistic of success and having a second chance at life

World's heaviest man - who weighs in at a staggering 960 lbs - is going for fat reduction surgery tomorrow. 

A team of seven staff had to help hoist Andres Moreno out of bed and onto a special reinforced stretcher to transport him from his home in Obregon City to a Guadalajara hospital for the gastric bypass on Wednesday.

The 37-year-old had become bed bound over recent years due to his weight and also suffers from a variety of serious illnesses.

 

Mexican Andres Moreno, the world's heaviest man, is going for fat reduction surgery tomorrow

The 37-year-old has become bed bound over recent years due to his weight and also suffers from a variety of serious illnesses

Medics will remove the majority of Moreno's stomach, around 70 per cent, and re-route a lengthy portion of his small intestine at the Mexico Gastric Bypass unit in the Arboledas Hospital. 

The procedure is used in morbidly obese patients to reduce meal quantities and the absorption of calories from food in a bid to make them lose weight.

A team of seven staff had to help hoist Andres Moreno onto a special reinforced stretcher to transport him from his home in Obregon City to a Guadalajara hospital for the gastric bypass on Wednesday

The Director of Mexico Gastric Bypass board, Judith Tavares, added: 'Andres is like a vase that has suffered several blows and we do not know at what point it can shatter.'

Moreno is the second Mexican to claim the title of fattest man after the Guinness World Record awarded Manuel Uribe with the title of heaviest man alive in 2006.

At his biggest, Uribe, from Monterrey, weighed a shocking 1,230 pounds (560 kilograms) and had been bed ridden since 2002.

Moreno said he had always been on the large side. He was born weighing a hefty 13 lbs and by the age of ten was already tipping the scales at 264.5 lbs. A healthy ten-year-old typically weighs anywhere between 57-100 lbs

Moreno's friend holds up a pair of his huge trousers as the 37-year-old prepares to go into hospital for weight loss surgery

Medics will remove the majority of Moreno's stomach, around 70 per cent, and re-route a lengthy portion of his small intestine at the Mexico Gastric Bypass unit in the Arboledas Hospital (pictured)

But after a television appeal for help, he began receiving medical assistance and slowly started to lose weight.

By the following year, he had lost almost 400 lbs to slim down to 840 lbs.

Sadly, despite his incredible weight loss, he was still morbidly obese and was never able to stand up on his own again.

That didn't stop him marrying Claudia Solis in 2008 - one of the few occasions he left his home during the past decade.

He passed away last year aged only 48.

He proceeded to put weight back on; in December 2009 he weighed 416 kg (917 lb; 65.51 stone) and in March 2012 444.6 kg (980 lb; 70 stone).

Mexico has one of the world's fattest populations, with 70 per cent of people overweight and a third of them are obese, causing a range of serious health problems.

The country also suffers one of the worst rates of diabetes which kills more than 80,000 Mexicans every year. 

Studies show that Mexicans are eating more processed foods than ever before and fewer whole grains and vegetables. 
Your Life Is Not Easy If is Fat.
