Bahaya toksin dalam badan

Kebanyakan rakyat di negara ini sejak dahulu lagi, lebih memberikan penekanan kepada kecantikan dan kesihatan luaran berbanding dalaman.
Sebenarnya tanpa kita sedari, untuk kelihatan cantik dan sihat, ia perlu bermula daripada dalam yang seterusnya akan membentuk kecantikan luaran.
Pakar konsultan produk kecantikan dan kesihatan RF3 World, Dr. Zannat Begam Sawal Hamid, 33, berkata, tidak kira lelaki mahupun wanita, masing-masing sanggup mengeluarkan wang yang banyak untuk membeli set penjagaan kulit, namun tidak ramai yang terfikir untuk membuang toksin dalam badan.
Jelasnya, toksin merupakan bakteria yang terkumpul di dalam organ badan manusia seperti otak, jantung, hati, pituitari, pankreas dan organ pembiakan.
“Kesan pengumpulan toksin ini tidak dapat dilihat dalam jangka masa pendek kerana ia memerlukan masa untuk membiak dan bertukar menjadi penyakit. Justeru, kebanyakan masyarakat jarang memandang serius hal ini.
“Walhal pencegahan daripada peringkat awal perlu dilakukan sebelum toksin bertukar menjadi bakteria jahat lalu menyerang bakteria-bakteria baik sehingga membuatkan sistem imun badan menjadi lemah,” katanya yang pernah bertugas di Bahagian Perubatan Tradisional dan Komplimentari, Kementerian Kesihatan selama tiga tahun.
Tambahnya, toksin lazimnya terkumpul di dalam badan seseorang disebabkan beberapa faktor seperti sisa makanan tidak dicerna sepenuhnya, merokok, terdedah kepada pencemaran udara dan mengamalkan cara pemakanan tidak sihat.
“Cara pemakanan yang tidak sihat di sini merujuk kepada mereka yang gemarkan makanan segera, kerap makan makanan yang dipanaskan melalui ketuhar dan jarang menjamah buah-buahan serta ulam-ulaman.
Kosmetik
“Selain itu, bagi mereka yang kurang melakukan senaman dan sering menggunakan alat kosmetik yang mengandungi bahan plumbum dan logam turut menyumbang kepada pengumpulan toksin ini,” ujarnya yang merupakan pemegang Ijazah Perubatan dan Pembedahan dari Universiti Malaya, Kuala Lumpur.
Katanya, penggunaan alat kosmetik sering diambil remeh oleh wanita.

Mereka jarang meneliti kandungan di dalam alat solek yang digunakan.
“Sebenarnya, alat solek atau set penjagaan badan yang memberi kesan perubahan terlalu cepat adalah tidak elok digunakan kerana ia mempunyai kandungan bahan yang amat kuat sehingga mampu melunturkan warna kulit dengan pantas.
“Oleh itu, saya menyarankan agar masyarakat menggunakan produk-produk semula jadi atau mengenal pasti dengan membawa alat penjagaan yang digunakan kepada pihak kementerian untuk mengetahui sejauh mana kesan penggunaan bahan tersebut kepada tubuh,” jelasnya yang pernah bertugas sebagai pegawai perubatan di Hospital Selayang, Selangor.
Sementara itu, apabila ditanya apakah penyakit yang boleh dialami oleh seseorang yang mempunyai toksin dalam badan, Zannat memberitahu, kanser dan masalah hormon seperti migrain, sakit sendi, kencing manis, ketidaksuburan, obesiti dan tiroid adalah penyakit yang popular dialami oleh masyarakat.
Menurutnya, antara simptom awal seseorang itu mempunyai toksin berlebihan dalam badan bila mereka berasa mengantuk berpanjangan, sistem imuniti rendah, kulit berjerawat dan bahagian keliling mata gelap.
Selain itu, badan terasa banyak angin, alahan, berat badan meningkat, kehadiran selulit, hormon tidak stabil dan kulit tidak sekata antara simpton yang turut dikenal pasti disebabkan toksin berlebihan.
Brokoli
Bagi mengatasi masalah ini, Zannat memberitahu, mereka yang dapat mengesan masalah tersebut daripada awal perlu memperbanyakkan makan makanan beralkali seperti timun, jagung, brokoli dan jus delima.
“Perkara paling mudah bukan sahaja perlu dilakukan oleh mereka yang mempunyai toksin tetapi oleh semua golongan masyarakat adalah minum air mineral dengan banyak kerana ia dapat meneutralkan badan yang berasid.
“Jika keadaan masih tidak reda dan penyakit terus berulang, anda dinasihatkan agar pergi mendapatkan rawatan doktor dengan segera,” ujarnya lagi.
Jelasnya, jika ia tidak dirawat, dikhuatiri penyakit akan menjadi bertambah buruk sehingga boleh mewujudkan profil asid deoksiribonukleik baharu yang akan memberi kesan kepada anak yang bakal dilahirkan.
John Terry deserves this new deal
- John Terry has made 661 appearances for Chelsea in an illustrious career
- 34-year-old has won 13 major honours with the Blues during his 17 years
- Terry's existing deal was set to expire at the end of this season
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho insists John Terry's 12-month contract extension is not a sentimental gesture after the club confirmed their captain's new deal on Thursday.
The 34-year-old central defender has penned fresh terms, worth in the region of £150,000 per week, which expire at the end of next season after another sterling campaign for the Stamford Bridge club.
The new deal does not include an option for a further year, but the Barclays Premier League leaders will provide Terry with another extension next season if he continues to play regularly.

Mourinho said earlier this year that there would be no issues regarding a new deal for Terry, and the Portuguese proved true to his word after Chelsea announced the news on Thursday.
Mourinho said: 'This new contract is not to say, "Thank you very much". It is because John continues to perform. He is a top defender. I am happy that he completely deserves this new contract after a season where he has already played 40 matches.'
Terry, who has made 661 appearances for Chelsea since making his debut in 1998 — scoring a club-record 63 goals for a defender — is on course to secure his fourth Premier League title this season to add to the success in the Capital One Cup earlier this month.
He said: 'I'm delighted to have signed an extension to my contract with Chelsea.
'After adding another major trophy to my collection this month I hope myself, the players and manager can continue to bring success to our club.

'Playing for this great club makes me so proud. And as always I would like to thank the fans who have continually supported me.'
Terry's big-money new deal is a far cry from his days as a trainee. He revealed he used to warm the toilet seat for senior professionals during his time in the academy.
'I'd do anything for them,' Terry said. 'I'd make their teas and coffees, even silly things like sit on the toilet to make the seat warm for them in the cold winter days at the training ground.
'It's bizarre when you think about it but that was part of growing up.'
After signing the new deal Terry hopes to stay at Chelsea for some time to come.

Terry told Chelsea TV: 'It's been a great couple of years for me. My form has been good and I've earned the contract, so I'm delighted to stay for another year. And hopefully there could be a few more years after this.'
The central defender, who has retired from England duty, lifted the Capital One Cup with Chelsea on March 1 - his 13th major honour with the Blues - and hopes to add the Premier League title.
Chelsea entered the international break with a six-point advantage over nearest rivals Manchester City and with a game in hand.
As well as three Premier League titles - Terry (centre) has won the Champions League with Chelsea
'Hopefully there's many more (trophies),' Terry added.
'That's a massive part of why I'm staying. I want to win trophies. I want to remain in the side, of course, and for me to get to 14 (trophies), 15, that's my target.
'We're very close at the moment. We still need to get over the line. It's going to be tough. The Hull game (a 3-2 win last weekend) showed how tough it's going to be.
'To get that big one at the end of the season would be fantastic. Then we can regroup and go again next year. I'm delighted to be here and hopefully there's going to be many more.'

Forced to fight to the death
- Dogfights organised in northern China to celebrate end of Spring Festival
- Outraged animal rights activists call for new laws to protect dogs
- But organisers defend brutal bloodsport as simple 'entertainment'
- WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT
Gathered in their hundreds, spectators crowd round to watch as two dogs are forced to fight to the death in barbaric cages.
These shocking scenes from northern China drew outrage from animal rights activists in the country, who have called for a change in the law to protect the canines.
But the local villagers who organised the event have defended the dogfights as necessary 'entertainment' in an isolated part of the country.
Barbaric: These shocking scenes from northern China drew outrage from animal rights activists in the country
Bloody: The competition was open to anyone who brought a dog along and the winner of each bout was rewarded with a pack of cigarettes and a china mug
Spectacle: Hundreds of people turn up to watch the dogfights in northern China, which are held to mark the finale of the Spring Festival celebrations in the region
The dogfights, which lasted over several days, were organised by six villagers in Sanjiao village in Jishan county in northern China's Shanxi province to mark the finale of the Spring Festival celebrations.
The competition was open to anyone who brought a dog along, and the winner of each bout was rewarded with a pack of cigarettes and a china mug.
One of the organisers, Shi Pan, 45, protested that because the village was in a poor rural area, the locals had to resort to creating their own entertainment.
He said: 'People in the city criticise our dogfights but they have all sorts of money to pay for entertainments which we don't have access to. We have to organise things to entertain ourselves.'
While banned in some countries, dogfights are a common attraction in northern China which hosts more than 100 festivals each year attracting visitors from neighboring provinces and tourists alike.
Police have said the event did not breach any laws and that there have been no official complaints.
They added that some of the people who who turned up had allegedly grabbed stray dogs off the street, and claimed they were their pets.
Attraction: While banned in some countries, dog fights are a common attraction in northern China
Violent: Despite the vicious scenes sparking outrage, organisers have insisted that the dogfights are part of the traditional 'entertainment' in the area
Brutal: The dogs are forced to fight to the death in cages, leading to calls from animal rights activists for new cruelty laws
Rural: Organiser Shi Pan declared the dogfights as a 'great success' and added: 'We plan to do the same thing next year'
China has no animal cruelty laws, and a person who damages a dog or another animal can only be prosecuted for damaging property if the animal belongs to somebody.
Dogfighting is illegal, but only if it involves bets. Simply allowing the animals to fight purely for entertainment comes into a grey area where it is difficult to prosecute anyone involved.
Chung Lu, an animal rights activist in the country said, said: 'Events like these are exactly why we need a functioning animal cruelty law in China, because people do that they want and get away with it unless they know the law can stop them.'
But a defiant Shi Pan said: 'It was a great success, we plan to do the same thing again next year. And we don't care what the people in the city say.'
