The management of a hotel operation is considered a major business operation. Degree programs such as Hospitality management studies and certification programs prepare hotel managers for industry practice.

Historic hotels


Some hotels have gained their renown through tradition, by hosting significant events or persons, such as Schloss Cecilienhof in Potsdam, Germany, which derives its fame from the Potsdam Conference of the World War II allies Winston Churchill, Harry Truman and Joseph Stalin in 1945. The Taj Mahal Palace & Tower in Mumbai is one of India's most famous and historic hotels because of its association with the Indian independence movement. Some establishments have given name to a particular meal or beverage, as is the case with the Waldorf Astoria in New York City, United States where the Waldorf Salad was first created or the Hotel Sacher in Vienna, Austria, home of the Sachertorte. Others have achieved fame by association with dishes or cocktails created on their premises, such as the Hotel de Paris where the crêpe Suzette was invented or the Raffles Hotel in Singapore, where the Singapore Sling cocktail was devised.

A number of hotels have entered the public consciousness through popular culture, such as the Ritz Hotel in London, United Kingdom, through its association with Irving Berlin's song, 'Puttin' on the Ritz'. The Algonquin Hotel in New York City is famed as the meeting place of the literary group, the Algonquin Round Table, and Hotel Chelsea, also in New York City, has been the subject of a number of songs and the scene of the stabbing of Nancy Spungen (allegedly by her boyfriend Sid Vicious). The Waldorf Astoria and Statler hotels in New York City are also immortalized in the names of Muppets Statler and Waldorf.

The luxurious Grand Hotel Europe in Saint Petersburg, Russia achieved fame with its inclusion in the James Bond film GoldenEye.


Hotel operations vary in size, function, and cost. Most hotels and major hospitality companies that operate hotels have set widely accepted industry standards to classify hotel types. General categories include the following;

* Upscale Luxury
o Examples include Conrad Hotels, Ritz Carlton, Four Seasons Hotels, and JW Marriott
* Full Service
o Examples include Hilton, Marriott, Doubletree, and Hyatt
* Select Service
o Examples include Courtyard by Marriott and Hilton Garden Inn
* Limited Service
o Examples include Hampton Inn, Fairfield Inn, Days Inn, and La Quinta Inn
* Extended Stay
o Examples include Homewood Suites by Hilton, Residence Inn by Marriott, and Extended Stay Hotels
* Timeshare
o Examples include Marriott Vacation Club, Westgate Resorts, and Disney Vacation Club
* Destination Club


The word hotel is derived from the French hôtel (coming from hôte meaning host), which referred to a French version of a townhouse or any other building seeing frequent visitors, rather than a place offering accommodation. In contemporary French usage, hôtel now has the same meaning as the English term, and hôtel particulier is used for the old meaning. The French spelling, with the circumflex, was also used in English, but is now rare. The circumflex replaces the 's' found in the earlier hostel spelling, which over time took on a new, but closely related meaning. Grammatically, hotels usually take the definite article - hence "The Astoria Hotel" or simply "The Astoria."

A hotel is an establishment that provides paid lodging on a short-term basis. The provision of basic accommodation, in times past, consisting only of a room with a bed, a cupboard, a small table and a washstand has largely been replaced by rooms with modern facilities, including en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning or climate control. Additional common features found in hotel rooms are a telephone, an alarm clock, a television, a safe, a mini-bar with snack foods and drinks, and facilities for making tea and coffee. Luxury features include bathrobes and slippers, a pillow menu, twin-sink vanities, and jacuzzi bathtubs. Larger hotels may provide additional guest facilities such as a restaurant, swimming pool, fitness center, business center, childcare, conference facilities and social function services.

Hotel rooms are usually numbered (or named in some smaller hotels and B&Bs) to allow guests to identify their room.

Some hotels offer meals as part of a room and board arrangement. In the United Kingdom, a hotel is required by law to serve food and drinks to all guests within certain stated hours. In Japan, capsule hotels provide a minimized amount of room space and shared facilities.


The first cyclists, often aristocratic or otherwise rich, flirted with the bicycle and then abandoned it for the new motor car. It was the lower middle class which most profited from cycling and the liberation that it brought. The Cyclist of 13 August 1892 said: "The two sections of the community which form the majority of 'wheelmen' are the great clerk class and the great shop assistant class." H. G. Wells described this aspirant class liberated through cycling. Three of his heroes – in History of Mr Polly, Kipps and The Wheels of Chance – buy bicycles. The first two work in drapery shops. The third, Hoopdriver, goes on a cycling holiday. The authors Roderick Watson and Martin Gray say:

Hoopdriver is certainly liberated by his machine. It affords him not only a country holiday, in itself a remarkable event which he enjoys immensely, however ignorant of the countryside he may be, but also a brush with a society girl, riding on pneumatics and wearing some kind of Rational Dress. The book suggests the new social mobility created by the bike, which breaks the boundaries of Hoopdriver's world both literally and figuratively.

Hoopdriver sets off in a spirit of freedom, finally away from his job:

Only those who toil six long days out of the seven, and all the year round, save for one brief glorious fortnight or ten days in the summer time, know the exquisite sensations of the First Holiday Morning. All the dreary, uninteresting routine drops from you suddenly, your chains fall about your feet...There were thrushes in the Richmond Road, and a lark on Putney Heath. The freshness of dew was in the air; dew or the relics of an overnight shower glittered on the leaves and grass...He wheeled his machine up Putney Hill, and his heart sang within him.

Wells puts Hoopdriver in a new brown cycling suit to show the importance of the venture and the freedom on which he is embarking. Hoopdriver finds the bicycle raises his social standing, at least in his imagination, and he calls to himself as he rides that he's "a bloomin' dook" The New Woman that he pursues wears Rational Dress of a sort that scandalised society but made cycling much easier. The Rational Dress Society was founded in 1881 in London. It said:

The Rational Dress Society protests... against crinolines or crinolettes of any kind as ugly and deforming... [It] requires all to be dressed healthily, comfortably, and beautifully, to seek what conduces to birth, comfort and beauty in our dress as a duty to ourselves and each other.

Both Hoopdriver and the Young Lady in Grey, as he refers to her, are escaping social restraints through bicycle touring. Hoopdriver falls in love and rescues her from a lover who says marrying him is the only way that she, having left alone for a cycling holiday, can save her reputation. She lowers her social status; he raises his. McGurn says: "The shift in social perspectives, as exemplified by Wells' cyclists, led Galsworthy to claim, at a later date, that the bicycle had "been responsible for more movement in manners and morals than anything since Charles the Second."


Bicycle touring is a form of cycling where riders travel long distances, prioritizing pleasure and endurance over utility or speed. Touring can vary from single day 'supported' rides — e.g., rides to benefit charities — where provisions are available to riders at stops along the route, to multi-day trips with solo or group riders carrying all necessary equipment, tools, food, and clothing.

Origins

Bicycle touring is an activity as old as the bicycle. The historian James McGurn speaks of bets being taken in London in the 19th century for riders of hobby-horses – machines pushed by the feet rather than pedalled – outspeeding stage coaches. "One practitioner beat a four-horse coach to Brighton by half an hour," he says. "There are various accounts of 15 to 17-year-olds draisienne-touring around France in the 1820s. On 17 February 1869 John Mayall, Charles Spencer and Rowley Turner rode from Trafalgar Square, London, to Brighton in 15 hours for 53 miles. The Times, which had sent a reporter to follow them in a coach and pair, reported an "Extraordinary Velocipede Feat." Three riders set off from Liverpool to London, a journey of three days and so more akin to modern cycle-touring, in March that same year. A newspaper report said:

Their bicycles caused no little astonishment on the way, and the remarks passed by the natives were almost amusing. At some of the villages the boys clustered round the machines, and, where they could, caught hold of them and ran behind until they were tired out. Many enquiries were made as to the name of 'them queer horses', some called them 'whirligigs', 'menageries' and 'valparaisons'. Between Wolverhampton and Birmingham, attempts were made to upset the riders by throwing stones.

Enthusiasm extended to other countries. The New York Times spoke of "quantities of velocipedes flying like shuttles hither and thither". But while British interest had less frenzy than in the USA, it lasted longer.

The expansion from a machine that had to be pushed, or propelled through pedals on a small front wheel, made longer distances feasible. A rider calling himself "A Light Dragoon" told in 1870 or 1871 of a ride from Lewes to Salisbury, across southern England. The title of his book, Wheels and Woes, suggests a less than event-free ride but McGann says "it seems to have been a delightful adventure, despite bad road surfaces, dust and lack of signposts.

Journeys grew more adventurous. John Foster Fraser and two friends set off round the world on safety bicycles in July 1896. He, Edward Lunn and F. H. Lowe rode 19,237 miles, through 17 countries, in two years and two months. By 1878, recreational cycling was well enough established in Britain to lead to the formation of the Bicycle Touring Club, later renamed Cyclists' Touring Club. It is the oldest national tourism organisation in the world. Members, like those of other clubs, often rode in uniform. The CTC appointed an official tailor. The uniform was a dark green Devonshire serge jacket, knickerbockers and a "Stanley helmet with a small peak". The colour changed to grey when green proved impractical because it showed the dirt. Groups often rode with a bugler at their head to sound changes of direction or to bring the group to a halt. Confusion could be caused when groups met and mistook each other's signals.

Membership of the CTC inspired the Frenchman Paul de Vivie (b. April 29, 1853) to found what became the Fédération Française de Cyclotourisme, the world's largest cycling association, and to coin the French word cyclo-tourisme. The League of American Wheelmen in the USA was founded in Newport, Rhode Island on May 30, 1880. It shared an interest in leisure cycling with the administration of cycle racing. Membership peaked at 103,000 in 1898.The national cycle-touring organization in the USA is now the Adventure Cycling Association (ACA). The ACA, then called Bikecentennial, organized a mass ride in 1976 from one side of the USA to the other to mark the nation's 200th anniversary. The Bikecentennial route is still in use as the TransAmerica Trail.

Consuming five servings of fruits and vegetables each day may help lower lung cancer risk, especially if you eat a variety of fruits and vegetables, suggests a new study.


The World Health Organization estimates lung cancer causes 1.3 million deaths worldwide each year. Globally, cancer-related deaths total 7.4 million per year.

Published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, researchers found individuals eating a mix of fruits and vegetables were 23% less likely to develop lung cancer. And the more variety of fruits and vegetables consumed, cancer risk drops an additional 4% with each serving.

The scientists state a significant link between fruit and vegetable consumption and lung cancer was only found among smokers, with every two additional servings of fruits and vegetables smokers reduced lung cancer risk by another 3%.

The study, part of The European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC), involved people from numerous countries, such as Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Norway, the United Kingdom, and Greece.

Despite the benefits of consuming fruits and vegetables, smoking remains the major cause of lung cancer worldwide. In the United States, smoking accounted for 87% of lung cancer cases; 90% for men and 85% for women.

Experts are saying the obesity rate in the United States will eventually “top out” at 42%, up 8% from a 2007 prediction of 34%.


Common risks of obesity include type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, and stroke.

Writing in the Public Library of Science journal PLoS Computational Biology, researchers expect the number of obese people in the United States to climb to 42% over the next 40 years.

In the study, a mathematical model was applied to four decades of data from the Framingham study; a long term study analyzing the health and habits of a town in Massachusetts.

The researchers say the friends you keep may explain the continued increase in obesity; an American has an additional 0.5% chance of becoming obese with each obese social contact, i.e. friend, they make per year.

Obesity and the desire to lose weight have created a huge weight-loss market in the United States. In 2003, a report claimed Americans spend between $40 and $100 billion on diet products every year.

According to a World Health Organization estimate, in 2007, 400 million adults were obese worldwide.

Rich people in developing countries are bearing the heaviest brunt of the obesity epidemic, suggests a new study.


In 2005, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that 1.6 billion adults, ages 15 and older, were overweight and at least 400 million adults were obese.

Writing in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Harvard researchers found developing nations’ wealthy citizens were more likely to be obese than poor people, which is in stark contrast to U.S. trends, where lower income individuals tend to be fatter.

The WHO projects that by 2015, approximately 2.3 billion adults will be overweight and over 700 million adults will be obese.

For the study, researchers identified trends in the weights of more than half a million women across 54 developing countries between 1994 and 2008 and found people ranking in the top 25% of the population based on wealth had more than double the risk of being overweight, compared to the bottom 25%.

Researchers speculate that food is cheaper and easier for wealthy populations to afford and more upscale neighborhoods also have more restaurants.

But despite the obesity issues, the scientists found a significant portion of the population still suffered from being underweight.

Raw Food Cleanse is written by Penni Shelton, director of the blog Give It To Me Raw and Real Food Tulsa. This book is designed to help readers discover the benefits of a raw food diet and to put them on the path to reclaiming optimal health.

While Raw Food Cleanse is based on introducing readers to a raw food diet, Shelton says that setting yourself a goal of eating 80% whole, fresh, raw, ripe, organic foods will give you amazing results.

In the beginning of Raw Food Cleanse readers answer a series of questions regarding eating habits, physical health and lifestyle factors. This will help you to understand the things that may be contributing to your weight and health challenges. Based on your answers to the life cleanse questionnaire and your personal needs for cleansing and weight loss you then can select from several different dietary plans.

3-Day Energy Boost Cleanse

Shelton suggests that everyone begins with the 3-day cleanse because this gives you the opportunity to discover how your body responds to the cleansing process. Some people experience detoxification symptoms such as headaches, nausea, and fatigue while others report none at all.

This Raw Food Cleanse is based on raw juices, green smoothies, salads and low-glycemic fruits.

7-Day Rejuvenation Cleanse

This longer Raw Food Cleanse is recommended if you are recovering from a lifetime of poor diet and lifestyle choices, or toxic environmental exposures. It gives your body systems a chance to rest, restore and rejuvenate.

This is very similar to the 3-day cleanse but with a little more variety for food choices.

14-Day Deep Detox Raw Food Cleanse

This cleanse is appropriate when you have a bit more weight to lose and if you have already been successful with a shorter cleanse. It promotes a deeper detox, renewed energy and increased fat loss.

The first seven days are liquids only and the remainder of Raw Food Cleanse is a diet with a very high proportion of raw foods.

28-Day Total Body Reset Cleanse

The longest Raw Food Cleanse is advised for those with more serious health issues and the most weight to lose.

You will follow a liquid diet for the first 10-14 days consisting of fresh juices, smoothies and raw soups. This is followed by a diet based on a variety of raw foods.

Recommended Raw Foods

Leafy green vegetables, beets, bell peppers, carrots, tomato, zucchini, apples, berries, bananas, mangoes, melons, oranges, pineapple, seaweed, avocado, coconut, olive oil, almonds, cashews, chia, hemp, flax, macadamia, pumpkin seeds, buckwheat, lentils, oats, quinoa, apple cider vinegar, Celtic sea salt, miso, vanilla, herbal tea.
Sample Raw Food Cleanse Meal Plan

Upon waking

32 ounces pure, alkaline water with lemon

Breakfast

Blueberry hemp nut shake

Morning Snack

Fresh organic strawberries

Lunch

Salad with mixed greens, tomato, red onion, orange pepper and avocado
Cilantro lime dressing
Liquid gazpacho

Afternoon Snack
Raw veggies with red pepper hummus

Dinner
Spring rolls with peanut sauce

Dessert (optional)
Raw carrot cake

Women who eat foods high in trans-fat may double the risk for their infants to be overweight, claims a new study.


Trans-fat is formed in partially hydrogenated vegetable oil and is used in processed foods, such as snack cakes and potato chips, in order to extend shelf-life.

Dangers of trans-fat include increased risk of heart disease, type-2 diabetes, obesity, and even Alzheimer’s disease.

For the study, published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, researchers found breastfeeding mothers consuming 4.5 grams of trans-fat per day are more than twice as likely to have children with high body fat.

Mothers eating 4.5 grams of trans-fat each day were five times more likely to have a body fat percentage higher than 30%. And their infants had more than two times the risk of having over 24% body fat.

The scientists say the findings indicate that the detrimental health effects of trans-fat may be passed from mother to child.

Due to health risks, trans-fat has faced increased scrutiny in recent years. In 2008, California became the first U.S. state to ban trans-fat; prohibiting restaurants from using shortening, oil, or margarine containing artificial trans-fats for cooking.

Small amounts of trans-fatty acids are naturally found in foods such as meat and dairy, but the majority of trans-fats come from partially hydrogenated vegetable oil.

One day of binge eating candy can sabotage your weight loss plan and cause you to gain 1-2 pounds. Here are a few tips to help you to avoid gaining weight around the Halloween Season.

Tip #1: Eat a balanced meal before going trick-or-treating!

Eating a balanced meal and feeding your kids a balanced meal is a great way to curb the sugar/ dessert cravings. Try to fill up on lean protein, veggies, and fiber before your first piece of candy.

Tip #2: Workout before going out!

If you workout or exercise before trick-or-treating, your body will be more sensitive to insulin. All this means is that your blood sugar will be lower and your hormones won't fluctuate as dramatically after you eat candy or desserts.

Your body will digest sugar a little better if you workout before going out.

Tip #3: Eat a piece of fruit before you eat a piece of candy.

Before sitting down to a big bag of candy, eat a piece of fruit and drink 8 ounces of water. Eating fruit and drinking water has a significant role on satiety (the feeling of fullness). You'll likely eat much less candy if you start with fruit and water.

Tip #4: Give away the excess.

After Halloween, it's time to purge your kitchen and cabinets of the remaining temptations. Bring the extra candy to work or give it to someone else who can distribute it elsewhere.

You could always throw away the excess, but I know that seems wasteful. So try to give away the excess candy the day after.

Tip #5: Don't eat any candy at all!

I know this is a hard tip to follow. But, I want you to know that candy can be very addictive. Once you have 1 piece, you may feel like you need to keep eating until you're sick (I've been there.)

Do your best to resist temptation. We're all human, but if you can avoid eating a ton of sugar during the days leading up to and following Halloween, you can avoid gaining excess fat.

Cancer research is basic research into cancer in order to identify causes and develop strategies for prevention, diagnosis, treatments and cure.

Cancer research ranges from epidemiology, molecular bioscience to the performance of clinical trials to evaluate and compare applications of the various cancer treatment. These applications include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy, and combined treatment modalities such as chemo-radiotherapy. Starting in the mid-1990s, the emphasis in clinical cancer research shifted towards therapies derived from biotechnology research, such as immunotherapy and gene therapy.

Areas of research
Cause

This type of research involves many different disciplines including genetics, diet, environmental factors (i.e. chemical carcinogens). In regard to investigation of causes and potential targets for therapy, the route used starts with data obtained from clinical observations, enters basic research, and, once convincing and independently confirmed results are obtained, proceeds with clinical research, involving appropriately designed trials on consenting human subjects, with aim to test safety and efficiency of the therapeutic intervention method. Important part of basic research is characterization of the potential function of mechanisms of carcinogenesis, in regard to the types of genetic and epigenetic changes that are associated with cancer development. The mouse is often used as a mammalian model for manipulation of the function of genes that play a role in tumor formation, while basic aspects of tumor initiation, such as mutagenesis, are assayed on cultures of bacteria and mammalian cells.

Important Cell Types Involved in Cancer Growth

There are several different cell types are that critical to tumour growth. In particular Endothelial Progenitor Cells are a very important cell population in tumour blood vessel growth. This finding was demostrated in the high impact factor journals of Science (2008) and Genes and Development (2007)which also showed that Endothelial Progenitor Cells are critical for metastasis and the angiogenesis [1] [2]. This importance of endothelial progenitor cells in tumour growth and angiogenesis has been confirmed by a recent publication in Cancer Research (August 2010). This seminal paper has demonstrated that endothelial progenitor cells can be marked using the Inhibitor of DNA Binding 1 (ID1). This novel finding meant that investigators were able to track endothelial progenitor cells from the bone marrow to the blood to the tumour-stroma and even incorporated in tumour vasculature. This finding of endothelial progenitor cells incorporated in tumour vasculature proves the importance of this cell type in blood vessel development in a tumour setting. Furthermore, ablation of the endothelial progenitor cells in the bone marrow lead to a significant decrease in tumour growth and vasculature development. Therefore endothelial progenitor cells are very important in tumour biology and present novel therapeutic targets

Selama ini kita tahu bahwa kanker hanya bisa diobati dengan terapi kemo. Namun tampaknya persepsi ini harus dihapus dan dibuang sejauh-jauhnya. Kenapa? Karena sebenarnya ada obat alami untuk membunuh sel kanker yang kekuatannya SEPULUH RIBU KALI LIPAT lebih ampuh dibanding terapi kemo. Obat alami ini adalah buah yang familiar dengan orang Indonesia.


Tapi kenapa kita tidak tahu ?

Karena salah satu perusahaan Dunia merahasiakan penemuan riset mengenai hal ini serapat2nya, mereka ingin dana riset yang di keluarkan sangat besar, selama bertahun-tahun, dapat kembali lebih dulu plus keuntungan berlimpah dengan cara membuat pohon Graviola Sintetis sebagai bahan baku obat dan obatnya di jual ke pasar dunia…

Memprihatinkan, beberapa orang meninggal sia2, mengenaskan, karena keganasan kanker, sedangkan perusahaan raksasa, pembuat obat dengan omzet milyaran dollar menutup rapat2 rahasia keajaiban pohon graviola ini.

Pohonnya rendah, di brazil dinamai "Graviola", di Spanyol "Guanabana" bahasa inggrisnya "soursop". Di Indonesia, ya buah sirsak. Buahnya berduri lunak, daging buah berwarna putih, rasanya manis2 kecut/asam, dimakan dengan cara membuka kulitnya atau di buat jus.

Khasiat dari buah sirsak ini memberikan effek anti tumor/kanker yang sangat kuat, dan terbukti secara medis menyembuhkan segala jenis kanker. Selain menyembuhkan kanker, buah sirsak juga berfungsi sebagai anti bakteri, anti jamur (fungi), efektif melawan berbagai jenis parasit/cacing, menurunkan tekanan darah tinggi, depresi, stress, dan menormalkan kembali system syaraf yang kurang baik.

Salah satu contoh betapa pentingnya keberadaan Health Science Institute bagi orang2 amerika adalah institute ini membuka tabir rahasia buah ajaib ini. Fakta yang mencengangkan adalah : jauh dipedalaman hutan amazon, tumbuh "pohon ajaib", yang akan merubah cara berpikir anda, dokter anda, dan dunia mengenai proses penyembuhan kanker dan harapan untuk bertahan hidup. Tidak ada yang bisa menjanjikan lebih dari hal ini, untuk masa2 yang akan datang.

Riset membuktikan "pohon ajaib" dan buahnya ini bisa :
• Menyerang sel kanker dengan aman dan efektif secara alami, Tanpa rasa mual, berat badan turun, rambut rontok, seperti yang terjadi pada terapi kemo.
• Melindungi sistim kekebalan tubuh dan mencegah dari infeksi yang mematikan.
• Pasien merasakan lebih kuat, lebih sehat selama proses perawatan / penyembuhan.
• Energi meningkat dan penampilan fisik membaik.

Sumber berita sangat mengejutkan ini berasal dari salah satu pabrik obat terbesar di Amerika. Buah Graviola di-test di lebih dari 20 Laboratorium, sejak tahun 1970-an sampai beberapa tahun berikutnya. Hasil test dari ekstrak ( sari ) buah ini adalah
• Secara efektif memilih target dan membunuh sel jahat dari 12 tipe kanker yang berbeda, diantaranya kanker : Usus Besar, Payu Dara, Prostat, Paru2, dan Pankreas.
• Daya kerjanya 10.000 kali lebih kuat dalam memperlambat pertumbuhan sel kanker dibandingkan dengan Adriamicin dan Terapi Kemo yang biasa di gunakan.
• Tidak seperti terapi kemo, sari buah ini secara selektif hanya memburu dan membunuh sel2 jahat dan TIDAK membahayakan/ membunuh sel2 sehat.

Riset telah di lakukan secara ekstensive pada pohon "ajaib" ini, selama bertahun-tahun tapi kenapa kita tidak tahu apa2 mengenai hal ini ? jawabnya adalah : begitu mudah kesehatan kita, kehidupan kita, dikendalikan oleh yang memiliki uang dan kekuasaan.

Salah satu perusahaan obat terbesar di Amerika dengan omzet milyaran dollar melakukan riset luar biasa pada pohon Graviola yang tumbuh dihutan Amazon ini. Ternyata beberapa bagian dari pohon ini : Kulit kayu, akar, daun, daging buah dan bijinya, selama berabad-abad menjadi obat bagi suku Indian di Amerika selatan untuk menyembuhkan : sakit jantung, asma, masalah liver (hati) dan reumatik. Dengan bukti2 ilmiah yang minim, perusahaan mengucurkan dana dan sumber daya manusia yang sangat besar guna melakukan riset dan aneka test. Hasilnya sangat mencengangkan. Graviola secara ilmiah terbukti sebagai mesin pembunuh sel kanker.

Tapi… kisah Graviola hampir berakhir disini. Kenapa?

Dibawah undang2 federal, sumber bahan alami untuk obat DILARANG / TIDAK BISA dipatenkan.

Perusahaan menghadapi masalah besar, berusaha sekuat tenaga dengan biaya sangat besar untuk membuat sinthesa/cloning dari Graviola ini agar bisa di patenkan sehingga dana yang di keluarkan untuk riset dan aneka test bisa kembali, dan bahkan meraup keuntungan besar. Tapi usaha ini tidak berhasil. Graviola tidak bisa di-kloning. Perusahaan gigt jari setelah mengeluarkan dana milyaran dollar untuk riset dan aneka test.

Ketika mimpi untuk mendapatkan keuntungan lebih besar ber-angsur2 memudar, kegiatan riset dan test juga berhenti. Lebih parah lagi, perusahaan menutup proyek ini dan memutuskan untuk TIDAK mempublikasikan hasil riset ini.

Beruntunglah, ada salah seorang Ilmuwan dari team riset tidak tega melihat kekejaman ini terjadi. Dengan mengorbankan karirnya, dia menghubungi sebuah perusahaan yang biasa mengupulkan bahan2 alami dari hutan amazon untuk pembuatan obat.

Ketika para pakar risetdari Health Science Institute mendengar berita keajaiban Graviola, mereka mulai melakukan riset. Hasilnya sangat mengejutkan. Graviola terbukti sebagai pohon pembunuh sel kanker yang efektif.

The National Cancer Institute mulai melakukan riset ilmiah yang pertama pada tahun 1976. hasilnya membuktikan bahwa daun dan batang kayu Graviola mampu menyerang dan menghancurkan sel2 jahat kanker. Sayangnya hasil ini hanya untuk keperluan intern dan tidak di publikasikan.

Sejak 1976, Graviola telah terbukti sebagai pembunuh sel kanker yang luar biasa pada uji coba yang di lakukan leh 20 Laboratorium Independence yang berbeda.

Suatu studi yang di publikasikan oleh The Journal of Natural Products meyatakan bahwa studi yang dilakukan oleh Catholic University di korea selatan, menyebutkan bahwa salah satu unsure kimia yang terkandung di dalam Graviola, mampu memilih, membedakan dan membunuh sel kanker Usus Besar dengan 10.000 kali lebih kuat dibandingkan dengan adriamicin dan Terapi Kemo.

Penemuan yang paling mencolok dari study Catholic University ini adalah : Graviola bisa menyeleksi memilih dan membunuh hanya sel jahat kanker, sedangkan sel yang sehat tidak tersentuh/terganggu . Graviola tidak seperti terapi kemo yang tidak bisa membedakan sel kanker dan sel sehat, maka sel2 reproduksi (seperti lambung dan rambut) dibunuh habis oleh terapi kemo, sehingga timbul efek negatif : rasa mual dan rambut rontok.

Sebuah studi di Purdue University membuktikan bahwa daun Graviola mampu membunuh sel kanker secara efektif, terutama sel kanker : prostate, pancreas, dan Paru2.

Setelah selama kurang lebih dari 7 tahun tidak ada berita mengenai Graviola, akhirnya berita keajaiban ini pecah juga, melalui informasi dari lembaga2 tersebut di atas.

Pasokan terbatas ekstrak Graviola yang di budidayakan dan di panen oleh orang2 pribumi Brazil, kini bisa di peroleh di Amerika.

Sirsak mempunyai manfaat yang sangat besar dalam pencegahan dan penyembuhan penyakit kanker.

Untuk pencegahan:
disarankan makan atau minum jus buah sirsak.

Untuk penyembuhan:
- 10 buah daun sirsak yang sudah tua (warna hijau tua) dicampur ke dalam 3 gelas air dan direbus terus hingga menguap
dan air tinggal 1 gelas saja.
- Air yang tinggal 1 gelas diminumkan ke penderita setiap hari 2 kali.
- Setelah minum, efeknya katanya badan terasa panas, mirip dengan efek kemoterapi.

Dalam waktu 2 minggu, hasilnya bisa dicek ke dokter, katanya cukup berkhasiat.
Daun sirsak ini katanya sifatnya seperti kemoterapi,
bahkan lebih hebat lagi karena daun sirsak hanya membunuh sel sel yang tumbuh abnormal
dan membiarkan sel sel yang tumbuh normal.

Sedangkan kemoterapi masih ada efek membunuh juga sebagian sel sel yang normal.

Sekarang anda tahu manfaat buah sirsak yang luar biasa ini. Rasanya manis2 kecut menyegarkan. Buah alami 100% tanpa efek samping apapun.Sebar luaskan kabar baik ini kepada keluarga, saudara, sahabat,dan teman yang anda kasihi.

Kisah lengkap tentang Graviola, dimana memperolehnya, dan bagaimana cara memanfaatkannya, dapat di jumpai dalam Beyond Chemotherapy : New Cancer Killers, Safe as Mother's Milk, sebagai free special bonus terbitan Health Science Institute.


Travel is the movement of people between relatively distant geographical locations for any purpose and any duration, with or without any means of transport. Travel also includes relatively short[1] stays between successive movements. Movements between locations requiring only a few minutes are not considered as travel. As an activity, "travel" also covers all the activities performed during a travel (movement).

Travel is a wider concept than a trip. A round trip is a particular type of travel whereby a person moves from his/her usual residence to one or several distant locations and returns. A trip can also be part of a round trip.

Travel is most commonly done for recreation or to visit friends and family (generally as part of tourism), for business or for commuting; but may be for numerous other reasons, such as health care, migration, fleeing war, etc. Travel may occur by walking or human-powered mode, or through mechanical vehicles, either as private or public transport.

Travel may be local, regional, national (domestic) or international. In some countries, non-local internal travel may require an internal passport, while international travel typically requires a passport and visa.

The word originates from the Middle English word travailen ("to toil"), which comes from the Old French word travailler ("travail").[2] A person who travels is called a traveler (U.S.) or traveller (UK).

Until this moment there is no vaccine that can prevent or treat HIV-AIDS. But is not something that is impossible to conduct HIV prevention for themselves and others. Therefore, understanding the transmission process is the key to prevention. Here I would like to measures to prevent transmission of HIV AIDS if you are not infected with HIV-AIDS.

* Understand the HIV-AIDS and teach others. Understanding HIV-AIDS and how the virus is transmitted is the basis for preventive action (God willing in the next post I discussed the problem of HIV AIDS), spread the knowledge in to other people such as family, friends and relatives.
* Know your HIV status of your sexual partners of AIDS. Having sex with just anyone make the perpetrators of sex is very risky HIV-infected, and therefore know the HIV status of sex partners of AIDS is very important.
* Use a new syringe and sterile. The most rapid spread of HIV AIDS is through sharing needles with people alternately with positive HIV status, transmission through needle often occurs in IDU (injection drug user).
* Use a Condom Quality. Besides making ejaculation slower, use of condoms during sex * Melepasmu, cook dinner pas pake condom? * Quite effective in preventing HIV-AIDS transmission through sex.
* Perform circumcision / circumcision. Many studies in the year 2006 by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) showed that circumcised men have a risk of doing 53% less than those who do not perform circumcision. (InsyaAllah discussed in the next post).
* Perform periodic HIV testing. If you are someone with a high risk, HIV testing should be done regularly, at least 1 year.


There are several stages when you start to become infected with HIV virus until symptoms of AIDS:

1. Stage 1: Period window
- HIV enters the body, until the formation of antibodies to HIV in the blood
- No special tanda2, people with HIV look healthy and feel healthy

Everyone that tofu kidney constitutes man vital organ. But not many person which know kidney exhaustively. It was caused to increase society care to know kidney that have big contribution in that human body still low.

Terminologicaling it, kidney disease be not been detected, suddenly while mengidap's someone that disease and experiences its phenomena therefore lie on middle zoom until chronic.

"That kidney have carefully been looked after. In consequence a no disease its phenomena, so if was troublesome therefore direct to paroxysm," clear doctor that also writer at one of blog that health.

Still terminological almamater that Sam Ratulangi's University, functioning kidney as tool of filtration, which is issue salt excess, water, and acid. And discarding or manages electrolyte as k, Ca, Mg, PO4, discarding body metabolite rest, and on call does sekresi to result EPO that functioning to manage Haemoglobin blood (HB), vitamin activation d. for bone health, and mensekresi renin to manage blood pressure.

Nah, kidney disease that suffered by that man split up becomes acute kidney disease, kronik's kidney disease, and renal failure. On prerenal's invasive case because of vein trouble before kidney input, one that marked by hipovolemia, sindroma hepatorenal, veined trouble, and sepsis sistemik.

Damage on that kidney network is alone, lanjut is this court man, because of ingoing poison via mouth, muscle network desolation. While hemolisis because of all sort disease as diseased as sickle cell and lupus. In contrast to glomerulonefritis acutely that a lot of because of SLE, streptokokus's germ effect infection tenggorokan and also tooth, etcetera.

Utilised answers permasalah that, therefore poison shall be avoided in order not to kidney damage happenings as avoid fetes or unknown herb its mechanism. Cure that is done without doctor consultation (e.g. purpose AINS or Ibuprofen, aminoglikosida's faction antibiotic and contrast), consume obatan cancers or kemoterapi, and imunosupresan also as trigger other causative diseased it.

Muscle network desolation kidney that extends to get because of accident, wound pricks to outgrow, type doctor purposes statin, stimulan, etcetera. On post renal's phase, urin who will come out to constrain by marks sense calculus, cancer, stone, blood that wads on kemih's channel, disease about nerve urinary, as spina bifida.

Terminologicaling it again, post renal's trouble is marked with stomach ache and diarrhoea, tired, effortless, bellyful and puke, sukar is concentrate, urin menurun's production, and oedema. Kidneys diseased cure acute get by undertaking been done consultation craftily it (nefrologist or urologist) well with primary healing and also secondary.

In contrast to PGA what do happen deep calculation days or Sunday, chronic kidney disease (PGK) having more process so long. "Cause of PGK for example glomerulonefritis, polikistik's kidney, infection, autoimun, etcetera. The number of times utilizes or without doctor consultation consume obatan asetaminofen, ibuprofen and tea pelangsing can also trigger this disease," its opens up.

Added by Scream, to measure condition of kidney health can be seen from kreatinin's rate, ureum, urin's protein, HB, and Klirens Kreatinin.

Nutrition, Health and Heart Disease
Tips on How to Have a Healthy Heart, How to Prevent Heart Disease. Disclaimer and Privacy Policy
If an apple a day keeps the doctor away, what would it take to avoid a heart surgeon? How about a multivitamin / mineral pill and some omega-3 oil (canola-rapeseed, flax, fish)? Add a diet low in processed food and a good 'lifestyle' (don't smoke, control waist size, manage stress well, some exercise) and you will improve general health and help prevent heart disease. I know, it is normal to believe you're eating a good diet but there is mathematical certainty that even the best diet does not get you the vitamin levels that our bodies and genome developed on. Supplementation fixes this and is safe, cheap and, best of all: easy.

This site looks at the food, supplement and prevention side of disease. I study nutrition in medicine as an independent researcher but it is not my job. This site doesn't generate money or sell anything. Below are highlights about the nutrients that prevent damage to your artery and bone structure and sometimes even cure it, and about those that can help you survive already existing artery damage.

In food processing, as when making flour or noodles, we lose 60-90% of most heart healthy vitamins. We degrade proteins by frying and high heat and our factories hydrogenate oil which first zaps all omega-3 (really vitamin F-3) by trans-forming it into toxic trans fat.

Science shows that a heart healthy diet is one with relatively unprocessed foods with veggies and some fruits, and rice or grains that retain some of their original kernel-structure to slow digestion. Such 'whole' foods became scarce in Western diets. If you can't recognize part of the original food, the item is processed or refined. Some eggs, liver or fish are probably also vital for most of us.

Why a add multi-vitamin pill to your diet? Well, most fast single nutrient diseases like scurvy, beriberi and goiter were wiped out by food fortification, our 'weapon of mass nutrition'. However, processed foods low in many nutrients such as vitamins B6, B12, folic acid and others, cause 'Long-Latency Deficiency Diseases', such as heart disease, cancer, bone loss and Alzheimer's. Think of these as nutrient deficiency diseases with long incubation periods and the science suddenly makes sense! Start with cholesterol and the science will never makes sense (can your doctor explain the 6th figure from the bottom?).

While research is ongoing and not every nutrient is good for everyone, this site is one evaluation of the prevention evidence to date -but with a nutritional bias. The idea is HITMNS "Health: It's The Micro-Nutrients, Stupid!" [and only then the economy.]
Most scientists agree that almost no one has optimum levels of many key nutrients and that a multivitamin + mineral supplement fills many such gaps. Bonus: a high dose multi is the only therapy to lower homocysteine, a slow poison simply corroding our life-long structural proteins, linked to over 100 diseases. A bottle with 6 months no-iron multis has no child-proof cap, it's that safe! The evidence for benefit is massive and pennies per day.

Even in health, there's excellent science for taking such [normally, no-iron] multi plus foods and supplements for a total daily intake of at least 1 gram vitamin C, 1.2 g calcium, 600 mg magnesium, 1200 IU (30 mcg) D (when not getting adequate sunshine), about 200 IU 'mixed' E in a meal with fat and 200 mcg selenium [bench-mark of a great multi.]

The good news: there are major health benefits from omega-3 rich oils, like almost 1 teaspoon flax (lin) and fish oil or 2 tablespoons canola (rapeseed). Lesser sources are unhydrogenated soy**, mustard oil, wheatgerm, flaxseed, walnut, green leaf veggies (surprise), and of course fatty fish -and really not much else. Cardiologist de Lorgeril: '.. in most cases, the prescription of capsules containing oils enriched in [plant and fish] omega-3's ... will be, ethically and scientifically, an obligation.' [pictures on right]

The bad news: common oils with over 50% of the omega-6 poly-unsaturate linoleic may be harmful (soy, corn, sun and safflower, grape and cottonseed) as is all hydrogenated [trans] oil ('vegetable' shortening, deep fry oils or ghee, donuts and 90% of margarines). **) Soy oil is a double edged sword as per person use in the U.S. went from zero 65 years ago to 31g/day, 10% of average daily calories. Soy is the main source of excessive trans and omega-6 fats in many countries: it's hidden and it's everywhere (scientific poster: or ).

These simple basics should prevent or postpone nearly 80% of heart and other serious diseases! What could be easier than an oil change to canola or flax (linseed), away from corn, sunflower or unidentified oils, and a few supplements at the end of your largest meal. Easing off on the highly refined carbs, the next step, is not that easy --as, each year, the average American eats his weight in added sugars, 650 Calories per day.

Apart from lowered nutrients, grains ground into a dust (flour and most breakfast cereals) or starchy potatoes (low-fiber, rapidly absorbed carbs) keep you hungry and stress your insulin system, promoting overweight & adult diabetes. Here, high insulin plus high blood sugar team up to reduce blood circulation and promote heart disease.
All illness has nutritional links. There's no doubt that all omega-3 oils (nature's COX inhibitors) lower heart attacks and double your survival chances while Vioxx and Bextra raise risk, as may Aleve/naproxen & Celebrex. Omega-3's from fish have anti-inflammation effects and help arthritis and bowel disease. Why not consider if such condition can be linked to a low intakes of such oils. This site will help you think along those lines.

A good multi is a zero calorie Essential Food Group, Ounce Of Prevention and Nutritional Seat-Belt. There is no research showing that avoiding vitamins makes you healthier and it's the only easy life-style change you can make. This website may not make you smoke less, walk more or revolutionize your diet but these ideas are simple and benefits major.

Eat three squares and a snack
I start most days with a three-egg omelet (one yolk and whites) and some green tea with a scoop of Benefiber (a natural fiber supplement). For lunch, I usually order baked salmon and grilled veggies from a nearby restaurant. I never eat fast food. And for dinner, my wife, Sari, typically makes fish or chicken with veggies. We eat little starch at home. If I get hungry during the day or when I'm traveling, I'll have a mozzarella stick, fruit, wasabi-coated soy nuts, other nuts, or a high-fiber bar.

Indulge in moderation
I love dark chocolate. I keep a stash in the office and usually eat a piece after lunch. I try to limit myself to that single daily indulgence, although I also have a weakness for rugelach, a rich pastry my wife buys when our boys come home from college. If I'm lucky, they consume most of it before I have the opportunity to yield to temptation.

Exercise early and regularly
On weekdays, I'm up and in my home gym by 6:15 am. Three days a week, I use a machine called the Power Plate, which vibrates as I do various exercises. It helps warm up my old bones, while building balance and core strength. Then I'll do Pilates. This workout normally lasts an hour. The other two weekdays I'll do 20 to 30 minutes of interval training on an elliptical machine. This type of high/ low intensity is great for the heart. On weekends, I golf, play tennis, or occasionally do a boxing workout. (Follow Dr. Agatston's 3-Point Plan to protect your heart's health.)

Go easy on the supplements
I believe a good diet will provide most of the essential nutrients I need. So, besides Benefiber, the only supplements I take are fish oil, turmeric, and Cold-Eeze when I travel. The omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil protect the heart, while some doctors I respect believe the curcumin in turmeric helps prevent Alzheimer's disease. Cold-Eeze contains zinc, which may prevent colds or lessen their symptoms.


Prioritize sleep
I get at least 7 hours per night. I also believe in naps. If I have an evening social engagement, I'll nap for 30 minutes before going out.

Cultivate closeness
I've been married for 28 years, and my wife and I have not only a wide circle of friends but also two much-loved sons who come home often. We all try to spend a few weeks vacationing together in the summer. Studies show that a strong social and family network is not only helpful for your general health but also for preventing heart disease.
