If you travel on a regular basis for business, you most likely have your own techniques when it comes to getting the best deals, packing the right clothes and getting through airport security quickly and easily. Still, there are some little-known tips and tricks that may come in handy when you travel for business, whether you’re traveling domestically or abroad. Here are five of the best little-known travel tips for business traveling.

1. Get up and move on long trips.

It’s commonly known as “Economy Class Syndrome”, but it happens to travelers in business and first class as well. Its technical name is deep vein thrombosis, a blood clot that develops in the legs and can travel to the lungs or the brain. Doctors believe that a combination of conditions contribute to the syndrome, including sitting in cramped conditions for 10 or more hours, low cabin pressure, low humidity and dehydration. You are especially at risk if you smoke, have high blood pressure, or have a history of cardiovascular problems.

Get up and walk up and down the aisle at least every two hours, and be sure to remain hydrated. Remember, coffee, tea and alcoholic beverages actually contribute to dehydration. Drink water and fruit juices instead. The best way to give you an extra advantage is to book an aisle seat with extra leg room.

2. Keep your eye on airline fees.

Save your company a bit of extra money by being aware of hidden airline fees. Shop around for the best rates and package deals if you need to rent a car or are traveling to multiple destinations. While boarding an airplane, keep your bags below 50 pounds.

3. Take full advantage of what your hotel offers.

When you are away from home you do not have your usual connections, your hotel can help you. Perhaps you need a printer at 2 am, or reservations for a business dinner at an appropriate restaurants. At home, you would know exactly where to go, but when you are traveling, you need answers from a reliable source. A business class hotel can provide these answers and more.

Most business travelers know whether their hotel offers high spend internet and wifi connections, but hotels that deal with business travelers often take those services to a far higher level. The front desk clerk or concierge will often go above and beyond to be sure that you have everything you need for your stay, from a replacing a cell phone charger to arranging pickup and delivery of important papers.

4. Make the most of layovers.

Your best case scenario may not include any layovers, but that’s not always possible. If you find yourself in a foreign airport with time to kill, make the most of it. Many airports around the world feature special lounges and amenities for frequent and business class flyers. You can take advantage of a hot shower, a massage or a nap; plug in to recharge your laptop and cell phone batteries; put your feet up in a massage recliner. Working out may not be an option, but a brisk walk between terminals can serve the same purpose – and get your blood flowing and your brain working again.

Not traveling business or first class? Many airports offer “pay per visit” access to the business/first class lounge that will still allow you access to all the amenities offered to business and first class travelers.

5. Pack smart for safety and comfort.

Spend as much time thinking about your safety as you do about packing the right tie or blouse. Keep a “go bag” ready to go with your current prescriptions, over the counter medications that you use frequently, your health insurance information and an abbreviated medical history. Pack your own amenities kit for the plane trip, too. Bring travel socks, eye shades, an inflatable pillow and mints, as well as travel size moisturizer, toothbrush, toothpaste and mouthwash.

Five Additional Quick Business Travel Tips:

1. If you travel to the same city frequently or for extended periods, look into corporate housing instead of hotel stays. The savings could add up in just a few trips.

2. When using a pay phone at the airport, avoid isolated or poorly lighted locations, and face outward while you’re on the phone.

3. Check to see if your credit card or personal insurance covers you while driving a rented car and save the expense of rental insurance.

4. Ask at airport check-in if there are exit row or bulkhead seats available. They’re usually the last ones assigned and there’s a good chance you’ll get a better seat without the cost of requesting a specific seat.

5. Be sure to keep a photocopy of your passport and ID back at the hotel. It will make things immensely easier in case of loss or theft.

The recommended dose is one tablet daily.

In the previous part of this article I covered what steps you can take to ensure your long haul flight to Australia is a stress-free and comfortable experience. As I mentioned, I am shortly going to be planning a holiday to visit family in Sydney and so I’ve got a lot of planning and preparing to do, in doing so I’ve come across a bunch of helpful tips to make sure your long haul journey isn’t going to make your trip regrettable, this next part continues with how to spend time whilst on the plane.

Assuming there’s no delays or cancellations I’ll be boarding the plane and in no time I’ll be on the flight heading east, this is probably the worst part of the trip, having to stay seated for the good part of a day, I’m not an overly active person normally but I still appreciate being able to get up and take a stroll outside. This is obviously not an option unless I sprout wings, although there’s a list of smaller exercises you can do whilst sat on a plane in order to keep the circulation going and reducing the risk of a Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).

As well as this the pressurised cabin is going to really make me uncomfortable due to my contact lenses, the air is really dry in a plane so I think I’ll be taking them out before the flight, the dryness of the air will also mean that you’re left dehydrated. Being dehydrated is the greatest problem on a plane, it is not unknown for people to not realise and end up fainting or passing out. Although drinks like coffee and alcohol are free it isn’t advisable since these drinks are considered as diuretics, meaning you’re going to be up and down going to the toilet all through the flight.

Going to the toilet is obviously an expected occurrence but if you’ve ever had to endure an airplane’s toilet in the past you’ll know they’re not the most pleasant facility in the world, so the less I need to go the better, it is advised that drinking plenty of water prior to flying keeps you hydrated and having some water in a bottle during your flights is a good idea especially since you’ll be on the plane for a long time.

Aside from the in-flight entertainment which always seems to involve an episode of Only Fools and Horses that I’ve seen a thousand times and a film that I probably would have never seen if given the choice there’s not much else on offer. Luckily I’ve got a few options since I plan to bring my PSP and iPod to while away the time, some flights even have electrical outlets in the seat but this tends to be a feature of business or first class travel, so if the flight has sockets then I won’t need to worry about batteries running out. I’ve always got a book which I’ve been meaning to work my way through so I’m a bit spoiled for choice in the entertainment department.

One thing I don’t want to do when I get there is feel like I need to take a nap, by then I should be wide awake and ready to do some sightseeing, especially in Singapore so I don’t think I’ll spend too much time playing music and games and get some shut eye. I’ve heard from some travel tipsters that setting your watch to the local time of where you’re going and sleeping according to that time is a great way to avoid jetlag; this is something I’m going to try out since I don’t want to get into Singapore and end up sleeping whilst my connecting flight takes off.

So if I follow the advice I’ve found out about and do some preparation then hopefully I’ll have a fairly pleasant flight. Contrary to popular belief it’s possible to get cheap flights to Sydney these days and coupled with the fact that I won’t need to pay accommodation this should work out as a pretty thrifty holiday.

Obesity is defined as an excess of body fat that can significantly impair ones health.

If a person is more than 20 percent over their ideal weight they can be considered obese, however, obesity should be determined by considering the person’s height, age, sex, and build.

The National Institute of Health (NIH) also defines obesity as a BMI (body mass index) of 30 or above (A BMI of 30 is about 30 pounds overweight.)

Obesity is a complex health issue, primarily because there are numerous factors that can cause its occurrence. Being overweight is a concern to those in the health industry as well, because of significant contributions to health problems.

Health issues can include risk factors for:

* Heart Disease

* Stroke

* Type 2 diabetes

* Fatty liver disease

* Specific cancers

* Deep vein Thrombosis

* Breathing problems

* Gallbladder disease

* Arthritis

Diet, inactivity, genetic, psychological and physiological issues can all contribute to obesity.

Because of this, the treatment for obesity may be more than a mere matter of dietary changes. Physical activity coupled with counseling and support can supplement a structured diet to help patients conquer weight issues.

Quick loss schemes and extreme diets however, can be counterproductive, as they can actually contribute to increased obesity via the destruction of the metabolic process and yo-yo dieting.

Real world lifestyle changes will bring faster success at conquering obesity than anything else. This will include behavioral therapy as well as traditional counseling. Incorporating healthy eating habits and physical activity into daily routines will help curb the rising tide of obesity too, but we must be realistic and make this change gradual.

There are no quick fixes.

As with anything, education is the key to promoting awareness about various implications of obesity. If health agencies are proactive in making sure the public has all the facts, not only on the frightening emergence of obesity and obesity related illness, but on how to best meet the challenges associated with it, obesity can slowly but surely be eradicated.

Parents and educators also have a responsibility to be good examples and to foster health conscience habits in our children. They can do this by eating right and exercising themselves. Community centers can also lead initiatives for physical activities and organized sports where pre-adolescents, teens and young adults can get involved.

Such leadership can translate into adulthood; the knowledge and education can be further applied and passed on to future generations.

The use of compression stockings by patients after treatment of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) has been found to prevent post thrombotic syndrome (PTS)? Recent studies published in medical journals and professional web sites such as the “Annals of Internal Medicine”, “American Family Physician”, “American College of Physicians, and the “American College of Phlebology” have shown that compression stockings prevent post thrombotic syndrome in 50% of patients.

Post thrombotic syndrome is a long term complication of DVT that is experienced by 1 out of 3 patients. The symptoms include pain, swelling, cramping, numbness, tingling, and itching of the affected leg. The skin on the lower part of the leg may harden and darken. PTS symptoms may last for years. PTS may affect 50% of patients with DVT after 2 years.

The American College of Clinical Pharmacy recommends the use of compression stockings after the onset of a DVT. They recommend that patients wear the compression stockings for two years after initial onset of DVT. Below knee compression stockings with a compression level of 30-40 mmHg should be routinely prescribed to all patients in this group. With more patients with DVT is being treated on an outpatient basis by emergency department physicians, it is imperative that patients are prescribed knee high compression stockings upon discharge. Compression stockings are not contraindicated in combination of anticoagulant medication.

The positive clinical outcomes of wearing compression stockings are dependent on patient compliance. This is true for all medical indications of stocking use. A recent study on patient compliance by C.L. Morgan, et al concluded that patients with detailed instructions and education about compression therapy become more compliant with the prescribed treatment. It is important for the prescribing physician to educate the patient on where to find this detailed information or present it them personally. Many websites can adequately supply the patient with all the detailed information and education needed for upmost compliance.

Compression stockings are widely available today. They come in many colors and styles for everyday use. One of the best places to buy compression stockings is from the premium online retailers. There you can find a variety of styles of colors of stockings at a reduced price.  Shipping is fast and affordable and the prices are usually less than the pharmacies or health care stores. At www.thelaserveincenter.com patients can also find useful information about compression stocking information such as how to measure their leg for stocking size, how to don stockings, how to care for stockings, and much more.

For more information on the various scientific studies that confirm that the use of compression stockings can reduce post thrombotic syndrome in patients who experience DVT visit www.thelaserveincenter.com or the American College of Phlebology at www.phelbology.org or consult a local phlebologist.  

Summary:

Recent studies have confirmed that the use of compression stockings at the onset of DVT may prevent post thrombotic syndrome. Results are dependent on patient compliance. Patient education and training will increase patient compliance.

If you are an all-night game player or an iPod maniac then this article is for you. Headphones are an essential piece of kit for many of us today as they allow us to privacy and sound quality. We look at three very different types of headphones offering reviews on their features and benefits.

The first up is an adaptable set from Sennheiser, the CX 400 Headphones. They are compatible with mobile phones and iPods offering good sound quality however they cost about 40GBP online with an RRP of 55GBP. So the question is, is it worth the upgrade? The answer depends on what you plan to use it for, the sound quality is good and enhanced by a selection of three moulder rubber ear fittings. If you plan to use it for hands free phone purposes it is suitable as the standard cable is short so that you do not have massive amounts of cable flapping around, however this proves an issue when using your iPod and you have to use the whopper 1m extension cable.

For those of you who take your gaming seriously and are willing to spend 150GBP on headphones then the next product is for you. The Sennheiser PC350 Headphones are fantastic for sound and voice quality, however when wearing them sometimes it does feel like you head is in a vice. If you are not too concerned about them wearing away your scalp then they have an adjustable microphone and are foldable for storage to boot. They have a 3m extension cable so you can walk around your command centre, or bedroom to avoid deep vein thrombosis however they are very expensive. They can be found online for about 85GBP if you look in the right places.

A cheaper alternative to the Sennheiser is the Plantronics Audio 770 Headphones. These are affordable and extremely comfortable to wear with massive speakers. The major down side is the quality of the audio when faced with the Sennheiser model, but they only cost 50GBP RRP and you can pick a pair up online for around 40GBP. If no one is ever going to see you wear them then they are ideal because they are like two millennium domes on your ears and kind of make you look like Princes Lea from Star Wars however if that does it for you, then the headphones are a cost effective alternative to the Sennheiser.

The headphones market like many others is dependent on your requirements and budget as generally you get what you pay for. It is important to remember that exposure to poor sound quality for long periods of time can potentially be damaging to your ear so sometimes upgrades are worthwhile.

Lawsuits versus the entire Oganon entities, makers of Nuva Ring, maintain that the company withheld information regarding its potential side effects like Nuva ring stroke. Injuries that involve blood clot leading to strokes are the cudgels that class suits pound against Nuva Ring. Since readers particularly the users of Nuva Ring have a vague idea of how a contraceptive can cause bodily injury, this article will attempt to provide detailed Nuvaring information about Nuva ring stroke.

Nuvaring information presents Nuva Ring as third generation contraceptive.  It carries a hormone called desogestrel which is a synthetic derivative of the second generation hormone progestin.  This renders Nuva Ring as a third generation contraceptive. Focus of the blood clotting causes is centered on the synthetic hormone.

Desogestrel is said to be resistant to anti-coagulant proteins thereby causing nuva ring stroke or blood clots to form. The occurrence of blood clot is most often referred to in lawsuits as the cause of death or scientifically known as “venous thromboembolism”.  For this matter, blood clots may also result to, but not limited to stroke, heart attack, deep vein thrombosis, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accidents, pulmonary embolism and death.

A medical doctor expressed opinion in an article confirming that third generation pills are indeed not suitable for all women. Use of this hormone as medication requires medical counseling not only about the risks involved but also about its benefits.  However, this same doctor emphasized that the resistance to anti-coagulation protein resulting to blood clots is true in all birth control contraceptives and not just on third generation contraceptives.

The FDA also issued a statement to this effect, wherein their course of action is to work out with the manufacturers to update the information contained in their product labels and pamphlets. FDA maintained that they do not recommend women to stop using products that contain desogestrel or to change their contraceptives. Instead, more emphasis should be given on the proper medical consultation that these women should get before making their choice of contraceptive. Considerations should be made about health, age, lifestyle and present conditions before deciding and self-administering a contraceptive third generation or otherwise.

In order to combat the real issue, there are a lot of Nuvaring information provided online.  Nuvaring provides information sheets regarding the use of their product. Users are enjoined to comprehend both benefits and possible side-effects.  Nuvaring information is contained in an FDA approved information pamphlet.  This contains a comprehensive description of Nuvaring and its hormonal component detailing how it works as a birth control pill and its possible risks and side-effects such as Nuva ring stroke.

As a summary, it was gathered that all birth control causes high risk blood clotting leading to stroke, heart attack, high blood pressure and other major ailments. FDA and other medical experts do not discourage the use of third generation contraceptives but instead instills proper medical consultation be fore deciding to use them.  For that matter, a would–be user of Nuva Ring should gather enough Nuvaring information to learn possible side effects such as Nuva ring stroke.

A Leg ulcer is an open wound or sore that can be found on the lower extremities, namely the leg, but these lesions can go as far down as the feet and ankles.90% percent of these skin ulcerations are caused by venous insufficiency, otherwise known as varicose ulcers. Another five percent are the result of arterial (ischemic) disease. This leaves a remaining five percent, where myriads of other causes, like Neurotrophic (diabetic) attributed ulcers, exist. The appearance of the ulcer, the ulcer location, and the surrounding skin of the ulcer often define venous stasis ulcers, Arterial and Leg ulcers.

What are the symptoms of leg ulcers?

The symptoms of legs ulcers may not be particularly painful, but they can be very uncomfortable. Common symptoms include swelling in the leg, as well as burning or itching. There could be a rash, redness, brown discoloration or dry, scaly skin, particularly around the inside of the ankle. The leg ulcer may also be covered with yellow fibrous tissue or there may be a green or yellow discharge if the ulcer is infected.

Venous type leg ulcers may look like a hollowed area of broken skin and exposed tissue. Sufferers of this type of leg ulcer often complain of a heavy, wooden feeling in the leg, aches, swelling and itching caused by eczema. They may also experience a continuous leg pain that can be chronic or acute.

What causes leg ulcers?

Causes of leg ulcers can vary, but the most common reason behind them is lack of proper blood circulation. This is primarily why the majority of ulcers are venous or arterial in nature. Leg and/or foot ulcers can also be worsened by secondary bacterial and viral infections caused by eczema. Immunodeficiency disorders can contribute to leg ulcers, largely because a depressed immune systems is more susceptible to the condition. Other risk factors include age, family history of deep vein thrombosis, a sedentary lifestyle, smoking, diabetes and obesity.

In cases were leg ulcers are caused by obesity, losing weight may be sufficient enough to eradicate them for good.

The fear of flying is a highly complex issue and affects significant numbers of people but there are ways and means of dealing with the inordinate and unrealistic fear of flying.

It is either the onset of a dedicated phobia, also known as aerophobia or aviatophobia, or it is a combination of one or more specific phobias that manifest in the air. If you consider the constraints to an individual’s freedom whilst flying, then it is easy to understand how these pathological anxieties can be so crippling to some.

Pathological phobias

Freedom of movement in an airborne vehicle is largely restricted and can lead to fears of deep-vein thrombosis for instance. Then there is the fear of heights that can also manifest in psychical symptoms like sweaty palms, dizziness and shortness of breath; the fear of closed spaces, referred to as claustrophobia, is also a direct spin-off of flying and can lead to muscle tension, heart palpitations and stomach discomfort.

There are any number of specific anxieties that can and do have a marked effect on the well being of a passenger. In these instances, the best practice would be to deal with each symptom on its own. If you are experiencing a panic attack, breathe deeply and slowly into a bag and try a relaxation technique. If you are convinced you are going to faint, put your head between your knees and ask the stewardess for a cold drink.

Anxiety may not be related to flying at all

Fear of flying can also be a direct result of something unpleasant occurring prior to or after the flight itself. If, for instance, you fly to your head office for a meeting and are told you have been fired, your mind may well trigger off these unpleasant feelings all over again every time you fly. It is in this case clearly not the fear of flying that is the problem but the associated anxiety of losing your job.

This is all quite intricate to think through, but it would benefit you to explore the psychodynamics of the anxiety and to try and determine the circumstances in your life when the anxiety first developed if you suffer from these phobias.

Generally manifests in adults

As we get older we seem to become more aware of our mortality and often dwell on dangerous aspects of life or possibly life-threatening situations, and flying certainly falls into this category for many.

While it may not help us to completely overcome our fear when we are told that it is about 60 times safer to fly than to drive in a motor car in South Africa, we can use this information to influence our negative thoughts and feelings attached to flying in a positive way.

Tips to help you overcome the fear of flying

Don’t dwell on the negative possibilities; expand your awareness to embrace positive things. Take your mind off your fear by chatting to someone, or by concentrating on how beautiful the view is out your window.

Be well informed as to the relative safety of an aeroplane. Many uninformed passengers are under the misconception that it is the engines that keep a plane above the ground and therefore assume engine failure will lead to the plane plummeting to the ground. This is not true, as a plane can glide quite safely without engines for a distance and an accomplished pilot will be able land the plane without too much ado.

Instead of fighting the fact that you are not in control, resign yourself to this fact and rather do something positive like reading, sleeping (tablets can assist you with this) or even a cross-word puzzle.

If your fear of flying is attached to a fear of dying, look at a spiritual solution and if your fear of flying is a definitive phobia, seek clinical help.
