The Dhaka Times Desk Parents are also responsible for deciding how to maintain the standard of living of children. To deal with diseases like diabetes, obesity, parents must first be aware.
Obesity is one of the many physical problems of the current generation of children. However, the parents are more responsible than the children. A study also said that children are increasingly falling prey to this disease due to their lack of awareness. A research paper published in the 'International Journal of Obesity' has given such information.
A group of researchers from Sweden's 'Karolinska Institute' recently conducted a study on nearly 200 children between the ages of 4 and 6 who were suffering from obesity and found that if parents are made aware of this before the problem becomes massive, the severity of the disease is much lower. Can be partially prevented. The researchers first divided the children into two groups. The researchers looked specifically at the diet and physical activity of the children in the first group.
The children in the other group were asked to continue with their normal lifestyle. "Discussing the issue with the whole family before it's even a problem really makes them more aware of it," said researcher Paulina Nowicka, assistant professor of pediatric sciences and principal investigator of the study. The children of this generation who are brought up by grandmothers, grandmothers, need to be informed about how to handle, how to pull the boundaries.
Children of the house are very dear to the elderly. But there is a difference between this generation and their generation. Along with this, the prevalence of new diseases like diabetes and obesity has increased. Therefore, before making the children aware, everyone else in the family needs to have the same idea about this. In order to prevent diseases such as obesity, a range must be created from the beginning through constant dialogue about how children should be outside the home. Where everything from eating and drinking to exercise will be under the control of the parents. Source: Anandabazar Patrika.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
