Insomnia or sleep-deprivation? Find out

The essence of a healthy lifestyle revolves around eating right and staying physically active.
But in hindsight, people usually tend to discard a sound sleeping schedule, body’s biological clock. According to the National Sleep Foundation (NSF), sleep is extremely essential for our health and wellbeing. Several individuals tend to not get enough sleep and end up suffering from multiple sleep disorders and most of them, go undiagnosed.

Various factors in our day-to-day lifestyle result in detrimental changes in our body and mind and irregular sleep is one of them.

The two types of Sleep:

REM Sleep or Rapid eye movement sleep is a phase that is characterised by random rapid movement of the eyes, accompanied by low muscle tone throughout the body. It is also marked by the ability to dream vividly. It is the state in which restoration of our brain and body functions occurs, including energy conservation and memory consolidation.

Non–REM sleep is marked by 3 phases of sleep that progressively deepens from light sleep, to restful sleep and ultimately, deep sleep.

Here are the three phases in the sleep cycle and REM phase described.

  • Phase 1: The duration between being awake and asleep.
  • Phase 2: In this phase, our brain waves slow down, body temperature drops and breathing and heart rate become more regular.
  • Phase 3: The final and third phase is the deep sleep – our body muscles are relaxed, blood pressure and breathing rate drops. Sleepwalking, bedwetting and nightmares occur during this phase.
  • REM Phase: This phase occurs about 90 minutes after we fall asleep, and is the dreaming stage of sleep. During this phase, the brain becomes more active and the body becomes relaxed and immobilised.

Let’s list down a few important issues to be known when there’s lack of sleep

Affects mental health: Sleep plays an important role in thinking and learning. Due to lack of sleep, a human brain can’t function 24/7 without giving it any rest. This eventually affects your mental health and results in fatigue and frustration.

Affects the immune system tremendously: It is said that sleep helps build up an effective immune system. Thus, lack of sleep can prove to be a barrier for your immune system and might eventually make you feel weak.

Affects the overall functioning: Sleep deprivation can lead to severe health issues including heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, irregular heartbeat and more.

Causes headaches: Several sleep disturbances like oversleeping, lack of sleep, or a change in your sleep routine often results in a severe headache, which can lead to other ailments.

How can you avoid Sleep Deprivation?

  • Avoid caffeine later than early evening
  • Take a power nap to boost your energy
  • Follow your proper sleep cycle
  • Maintain your room temperature and bed hygiene
  • Meditate for 20 minutes before bedtime
  • Listen to soft music before bed
  • Don’t use electronic gadgets 2 hours before bedtime
  • Keep your Cortisol in check
  • Sleep on good quality bed accessories
  • Say NO to smoking, especially at night

The best way to control sleep deprivation is with the right mindset. If you are facing a sleep disorder, keep a check on your sleeping habits by maintaining a sleep diary. Consult our Neurology department or our Pulmonology department, which addresses issues related to sleep disorders. A pulmonologist treats lung diseases and breathing problems associated with sleeping disorders. In case of any emergency, you can contact or visit ILS Hospitals, a multispeciality hospital, known for its excellent healthcare services.

Gastroenterology

The well-being of a human body is often related to the proper functioning of the digestive system. But modern-day diets and lifestyles often tend to meddle in with the smooth functioning, resulting in various minor and major digestive problems. It is only then the expertise of a gastroenterologist has sought after.

What is Gastroenterology?

Gastroenterology is a branch of medicine that deals with the disorders of the human digestive system. Starting from our mouth to the anus, the gastrointestinal tract, along with the alimentary canal, is responsible for the proper digestion of food. Physicians who specialise in this field are called gastroenterologists.

What are some of the common yet lesser-known facts relating to Gastroenterology?

  • Heart burns: Our current lifestyles result in one of the most common diseases stemming from our digestive system and that is gastroenteritis. The symptoms range from stomach cramps and diarrhoea, to nausea and vomiting. What people don’t generally know is that chest pain is also a key symptom of gastroenteritis and is often confused with a heart attack. So, the myth equating chest pain to heart issues is not a safe assumption to make and it is best to consult a gastroenterologist.
  • Blood in stool: Another common misconception is that blood in stool is usually the result of a tear in the track. However, this often stems from GERD or Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease, a condition where the acids in the stomach irritate the lining of the food pipe and cause blood to pass through. It is safe to consult any gastroenterologist for the same.
  • Smoking & digestion: The most common misconception that people tend to agree to is that smoking helps with digestion. The fact here is that it may help in the movement of the stool but never helps in digestion. On the contrary, smoking causes heartburns, peptic ulcers, liver diseases and also gallbladder stones.
  • Overuse of herbal supplements: The whole fad of switching to herbal and dietary supplements is causing people more harm than they know. People take these without weighing in the side effects just because they are natural. In reality, these supplements, if consumed in excess, include vitamins and minerals that can cause liver inflammation, scarring, liver cirrhosis and even liver failure.

ILS Hospitals has state of the art operating theatre, endoscopy suites, and modern types of equipment and modes of treatment for addressing the diseases. With years and years of research, Gastroenterologists provide comprehensive care for patients involving gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures as well as the interpretation of results. The bulk research performed by them translates to more accurate detection of grave diseases like cancer via colonoscopy. Most of the diseases treated by gastroenterologists are manageable, their main goal is to improve overall the quality of life using advanced clinical care. In case of any emergency, contact or visit ILS Hospitals, a multispecialty hospital, known for its excellent healthcare services.

ILS Speaks – Healthy Hair, Healthy You

Hair has been called crowning glory as it is symbolic to the person’s health, beauty, and overall personality. A luscious thick mane is always considered healthy and so to achieve that people use a lot of products and provide a lot of TLC to the hair.

Have you ever wondered what your hair is trying to tell you? Just like your nails, your hair has a lot to say about the health of your body. The condition of your hair can hint at serious diseases, like thyroid, anaemia, etc. as well.

In today’s blog, ILS Hospitals, one of the best hospitals in Kolkata and Agartala, will tell you what your hair is trying to tell you about your overall health. So, without any further ado, let’s proceed further.

Dull and lifeless hair

Dull and lifeless hair can happen due to a variety of reasons. You might make your hair dull and lifeless when you undergo chemical treatment, like hair colouring, rebonding, and other heat treatment or when you use harsh chemical-based products at home. From the medical point of view, dull and lifeless hair strictly indicates poor nutrition.

Solution: Eat lots of fruits, vegetables, and meat. Drink plenty of water and avoid harsh chemicals on your hair.

Grey or white hair

Grey or white hair is normal after you turn 35 years. But if you have white hair in your twenties then it is a matter of concern. The hair becomes white due to insufficient melanin, a pigment that gives hair its natural colour. This can happen due to vitamin B deficiency and stress.

Solution: Stay away from stress and eat vitamin B rich foods, such as eggs, fish, chicken, mutton, oysters, milk, whole grains, almonds, broccoli, spinach, bananas, avocados, bananas, and so on.

Thinning hair

Hair thinning or receding hairline occurs due to nutritional deficiencies or thyroid. Hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism can cause hair loss in men and women. If you wish to know more about thyroid, read this blog: Your Complete Guide On Thyroid

Solution: Consult your medical professional, preferably visit ILS Hospital and get thyroid function tests.

Excessive hair fall 

Losing 50-100 strands of hair a day is completely normal but if the hair strands exceed this normal range then it can indicate towards iron deficiency or anaemia.

Solution: Eat foods rich in iron, like chicken, fish, cashews, whole grains, fortified cereals, spinach, legumes, lentils, tofu, raisins, apricots, and so on. Also, get a blood test to check your haemoglobin levels.

Dry hair and scalp

Dry hair and scalp can mean that you are not getting healthy fats in your body. Also, dry hair and scalp can happen due to scalp diseases, like psoriasis.

Solution: Eat healthy fats, like eggs, cheese, avocados, fatty fishes, coconut oil, almonds, cashews, etc.

For other hair-related queries, visit ILS Hospitals in Kolkata and Agartala to consult our professional trichologists.

Anemia And Its Prevention In Women

Anemia is a health condition in which the body does not make enough RBCs (red blood cells) or hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is an essential protein found in the blood that is responsible for giving blood its colour and it also helps in the transportation of oxygen throughout the body. When you have low hemoglobin, you have anemia, when you have anemia, you encounter symptoms, like fatigue and shortness of breath. Anemia can be mild to severe and short-term to even long-term.

Anemia is a serious health concern in our country, India. More than 50% of women in India under the age of 15-49 years are suffering from anemia. It is a matter of concern and we all must talk about it. The biggest question to ask is why women are more prone to suffer from anemia? As per health professionals working at some best hospitals in Kolkata, women are more vulnerable to suffer from iron deficiency anemia because of blood loss during menstruation, pregnancy, and post-childbirth. Mostly, in our country, more women are suffering and have been diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia, obviously, due to malnutrition or poor nutrition. Anemia can be easily diagnosed by a blood test or hemoglobin test and is treated by medications, blood transfusion, and lifestyle changes, all depending upon the severity and the type of anemia.

Today, ILS Hospitals, one of the best hospitals in Kolkata and Agartala will guide all women who are reading this blog on preventing this serious medical condition called anemia. So, to all women, carefully read and apply the following mentioned things in your life to never see the face of anemia.

Consume lots of iron-rich foods

Iron is crucial to avoid iron deficiency anemia. Consume iron-rich foods, like spinach, eggs, red meat, chicken liver, fish, peas, black beans, kidney beans, chickpeas, tofu, oysters, apples, banana, and pomegranates.

Get sufficient vitamin B12

Most patients with anemia have low vitamin B12 levels. Eat eggs, fish, chicken, mutton, milk, cheese, butter, fortified breakfast cereals, and so on.

Receive enough vitamin B9 or folate

Vitamin B9 or folate is extremely important for pregnant women. Consume foods that are rich in vitamin B9, such as peanuts, whole grains, eggs, fish, liver, leafy greens, citrus fruits, etc.

Include more vitamin C in your diet

Vitamin C helps in better absorption of iron. Have more tomatoes, bell peppers, oranges, lemons, papayas, strawberries, and so on.

Avoid drinking hot beverages along with meals

Ensure to not drink hot beverages – tea and coffee along with your meals as it hampers the iron-absorbing power of the body.

Take vitamin supplements

Sometimes diet cannot provide all the vital nutrients needed for the body. In that case, vitamin supplements are prescribed by the medical practitioner. Consult the doctor and ask him or her to prescribe you vitamin supplements if needed.

Get a complete body checkup to rule out other types of anemia
There are other types of anemia as well – sickle cell anemia, hemolytic anemia, etc. Get a complete body checkup from a reputed healthcare centre or hospital in Kolkata to rule out other types of anemia.

Visit ILS Hospitals, the leading hospital in Kolkata and Agartala to get accurate diagnoses and timely treatment for anemia.

Childbirth: ILS Hospitals’ Guide On Postpartum Depression

Pregnancy and childbirth are incredible experiences but for some women, they can also become overwhelming. Sometimes, pregnancy and delivery are not sunshine and rainbows because baby blues are real. Baby blues are a psychological condition felt by women right after delivery. When you have baby blues, you feel unhappy and emotionless for no reason. Usually, baby blues go away on their own within a week but in case if a new mother has baby blues that last longer than two weeks then she might be suffering from postpartum depression.

Today, ILS Hospitals, one of the best hospitals in Kolkata and Agartala will tell you 4 outstanding facts on liver so stay connected!

Your liver can regenerate itself

Yes, you heard that right. It’s an absolutely correct statement. A liver can completely regrow itself from 25% to 100 % in a matter of weeks. When a person donates 75% of his or her liver then the liver can regenerate itself to its original size in two weeks without fail.

Healthy liver = Well-functioning brain

Your liver regulates plasma glucose and ammonia levels in the body. If these two enzymes are not regulated then it will lead to a serious medical condition called hepatic encephalopathy (declined brain function) that can result in a coma. So, yes, admit it, a healthy liver is crucial for a healthy brain.

Liver is important for drug metabolism

Oral medicines are first converted by the liver for the body to accept and if your liver does not or is unable to perform this vital function then no matter how much effective the oral medicines are, they just won’t work.

Our liver is the second largest organ in the body 

The liver weighs more than 3 pounds and is the second-largest organ in the body. So, which one is the first largest organ? Well, it’s your skin.

Since the liver is such a superstar organ, it needs great care and love. An unhealthy liver can lead to serious liver ailments, like fatty liver disease and cirrhosis. If you want your liver to be young and healthy, then take note of the following things:

  • Eat a healthy and balanced diet
  • Maintain a healthy weight
  • Ditch your sedentary lifestyle
  • Avoid hepatitis B and hepatitis C infections
  • Quit smoking
  • Drink alcohol moderately
  • Get regular medical checkups

Covid -19: How To Breastfeed Your Baby If You’re Covid Positive

COVID-19 cases are increasing drastically and the vaccine is still not available to the masses. If you’re a COVID positive new mother then you have to take as many precautions as you can because you have to breastfeed your newborn baby.

(Get in touch with the best gynaecologist in Kolkata for clearing queries related to gynaecological health.)

According to WHO (World Health Organization), mothers can breastfeed their babies even if they have tested positive for COVID-19. We still don’t have enough evidence to point out that Coronavirus can be transmitted through breastmilk. As breastmilk is extremely important for the newborn baby’s health and development, we encourage all new mothers to breastfeed their little ones cautiously and by keeping note of the things mentioned below:

Wear a mask while breastfeeding

Never forget to wear a mask or cloth covering before breastfeeding your baby. Wear a proper face mask that covers your nose and mouth perfectly. You can also wear a face shield over your mask.

Wash your hands before and after holding your baby

Wash your hands right before and after holding your baby. Also, use a hand sanitizer once you’ve washed your hands with soap and water.

Use a breast pump

Using a breast pump is an excellent choice now as it will require contactless breastfeeding. Ensure that the breast pump is well-sanitized after each use. When you’re using a breast pump, you can ask someone else to hygienically feed your baby.

Avoid close contact with the baby

Do not let emotions drive you. Avoid touching and being in close contact with your baby while breastfeeding.

Take good care of yourself and we hope you defeat Corona soon. For any health-related supervision, visit ILS Hospitals, the best hospital in Kolkata and Agartala.
