Experiments by British researchers showed that laser-activated dye, which are used for medical diagnosis produces a number of chemicals which could kill bacteria.  It would replace the traditional method of treating with oral antibiotics.  The skin infections can be treated on the spot.  Studies show that indocyanin-green dye killed variety of bacteria’s, when activated by near-infrared laser.  Most infections cases are associated with hospitals and other health cares where patients with infections of burns and surgical infections suffer much as conventional methods fail to treat and lead them for long hospital stays.  Now this new treatment method of using dye safe for humans could save lives and helps people to get released from hospitals soon.

If you are trying to follow Kareena Kapoor and aiming to fit size zero then halt, men do not like women with that kind of a size. Men have always been drooling after a fabulous figure but not a size zero figure so why kills your self for it. Men have never like skimpy women nor have they given an eye for fat women but what they feel is that a great body neither only bones and nor just the fat is what they like. So women stop those crash diets immediately and stick to the proportions that were one prescribed as 34, 28, 34 and see men eyeing you where ever you go. So Katrina is just fine and Kareena is out.

Government has now decided to put pictures on the cigarette boxes that will give messages of warning to the smokers. This is governments yet another effort to prevent people from smoking. But the debate is how effective would this effort turn out to be. Desibaba sources found out that the fact is that the people who actually smoke do not even bother what is written on the cigarette pack then how much will they bother about the pictures and secondly there are a lot of people who buy only few cigarettes at a time. These people will anyways not be able see what is there ion the pack. It is a known fact that a smoker quits smoking only when he gets a call from within. So no matter what is written or printed on the pack it will hardly have any effect on the smokers. But we also appreciate governments to make smokers cautious. Probably by seeing the pictures they will realize what harm can the cigarettes do to their health or to the health of those who become passive smokers because of them. Passive smokers can be anyone to their friends, family and kids. There are also many hindi films and hindi songs which target to pass the message of not to smoke and to make people aware of the risks of smoking.

Treatment in hospitals in India Is very expensive, and considering the amount of people who are not from wealthy families it is something very difficult for them to offered treatments. But some things have to be treated for and then it has to be done, and families have to arrange money by some way or another. Going to government hospitals means getting slow and useless treatment, but the only plus point is that the treatment is free, but in private hospitals the treatment I good but it costs to have this good treatment.

Going through an article in local newspaper about the make up made me aware about the thoughts of majority of people. They say that some form of make up is somewhat essential for most, if not all. Some is used to ’spice up’ our looks, some for medical purposes and there are a whole bunch of reasons others are worn, which of course depends with the wearer and perhaps the respective occasion. Some people go to bed wearing make up because they want to look beautiful the first thing they wake up in the morning. Of course every one wants to look good when you go out, when you are attending a special occasion but too much of obsession with it is really weird.
