British scholars have tested to a team of rowers: after spending 45 minutes on rowing alone or in teams of six, that measured the ability of athletes to resist strong pressure on the arm. L `exercise in itself increases the pain tolerance, but the difference between the two groups was significant: the athletes who had rowed together for as long resisted the painful stimulus.

The substance, the researchers argue, is the `endorphin, a chemical produced by the brain, the analgesic properties similar to those under opium and morphine: the feeling of sharing and synergy generated by the team sports would be similar to that experiences dancing and laughing with friends or attending a religious ceremony.

“` The findings of the investigation – said Emma Cohen, who led the study – suggest that during a group training more endorphins are released by the brain than individual sessions of physical activity, even for the same effort. “

“The deputy minister – said Gianni Petrucci, president of Cone, who attended the press conference at the ministry – was clear: we give priority to the Olympics. The rest then we’ll see. Fazio has indicated a level of priority and the world of sports is not the first place, so I made an appeal to our doctors not to make statements to the effect that leaving things as they are. ” The implicit reference was to the doctor for the National, Enrico Castellacci, who a few days ago he had asked Mr Fazio to include in the categories to be vaccinated immediately, even that of football players. While in England salt alarm Italy then continues along the lines of care, sports medicine and the federation states: there is no danger that suggests a privileged way to the players.

According to the study’s author, Peter Krustrup University of Copenhagen, soccer is the sports most intense and demanding, requiring greater coordination and a wide range of movements such as twisting, jumping, rapid shooting, and (in very rare) the inverse. The stock five or soccer also had the benefit of committing the same way all the players, unlike football eleven in which, sometimes, some people become fatigued more than others.

In one of their studies, the researchers asked 47 men with hypertension to run or play soccer for an hour twice a week. From the analysis conducted after three months, showed that both activities with a decreased blood pressure of subjects, along with a substantial decrease in body weight. Unlike race, however, the football will also favor a decrease in the levels of cholesterol in the blood.

“Football affect several vascular risk factors such as oxygen consumption, heart function, blood pressure and cholesterol, even more than lifting weights and equally, if not more, of the race,” said Peter Krustrup .Well-being, then, a couple of hours of football every week. And if they do well for the heart, maybe even go well with the wives.

Not only vertigo: the researchers of the University of Florida (USA) and Chungham National University (Korea), in fact, Tai-chi would reduce the rate of blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes offering, is explained in the researchers, the same benefits of aerobic exercise on diabetes control. And also, “Tai-chi is a type of low-impact exercise and a little traumatic, which means it is less stressful on bones, joints and muscles compared to more intense physical activities.”

Diagnosis:

For the diagnosis, the doctor must first listen to the case history and symptoms of the patient, and then perform a physical examination. So he can check that no alarm symptoms are present that could indicate a serious underlying cause, such as tumors, inflammations, etc. Is this not the case, then there is non-specific neck pain. There is no evidence that additional medical imaging still useful. Moreover certified radiological anomalies, such as wear of the intervertebral discs, not necessarily worse outlook for the patient.

Treatment:

A combined or “multimodal” is the only treatment for which convincing scientific evidence that they are short and long term reduces pain and improves functional ability. It consists of physical exercises under the supervision of a health care professional, combined with mobilizations and / or manipulation (eg stretching) of the neck.
As exercise, manipulation and mobilization are performed there is no isolation or contradictory scientific evidence that they effect. This also applies to other treatments such as traction, electrotherapy, laser therapy, acupuncture, soft collars, injections of Botulinum Toxin dioxide and the intake of medication (paracetamol, anti-inflammatory and muscle relaxants).

This is a change to which we must adapt because, unconsciously, we alter our habits. Change an hour can be a process of adaptation of three to five days of changes.

The time change between summer and winter is comparable to jet lag, not as sharp but we must conform. The biological clock is disturbed with the dislocations in light reception. Time is changed to regulate light, which acts as a stimulus for the release of some hormones that are activated upon awakening. These can be altered cause insomnia.

Depending on each person can fully adapt to the new schedule up to five days. A single hour is not usually very traumatic for the body but it is important to monitor the first few days sleeping hours and the food we eat.

Some changes we can experience

The time changes affect in particular, who have an unwieldy structure into the biological and the psycho. Also those who are subject to engage in very hard times.

In sensitive individuals can affect this change result in irritation of the skin, changes in sleep or mood disorders mood.

The alterations that we depend upon our bodies suffer. The central nervous system may manifest with symptoms of drowsiness, irritability, difficulty with attention, concentration and memory.

We can feel fatigued, with less energy, malaise or note that despite the effort, our productivity is lower.

May also experience drastic mood swings coming to depression.
The most common digestive disorders are lack of appetite during the day, and increased hunger at night. This can increase the secretion of gastric juice.

The most viable if we see this change affects us is recommended to start to take her vows the day before the time change so we would not think too many conditions on the same day and consecutive. Especially if the next day he has to work.
