The Dhaka Times Desk According to a recent health report, these cold drinks have no nutritional value except calories and sugars.
Drinking water with biryani or oil spiced food can cause gas. So drink cold soft drinks regularly. Consuming such drinks in excess is not good for the body at all. For those with diabetes, soft drinks are like poison. However, a recent study has revealed that women who drink soft drinks every day have a higher risk of developing liver cancer.
According to a health report, these cold drinks have no nutritional value except calories and sugars. If you have a habit of drinking this drink for a long time, the extra calories in the drink will increase the amount of fat in the body. A group of Indian researchers from Birmingham and Women's Hospital has also shed light on this issue. Nearly one lakh postmenopausal women participated in the study. People who drink soft drinks daily have an 85 percent higher risk of developing liver cancer.
Why are women more prone to liver cancer than men?
In the study, scientists found that drinking cold soft drinks every day increases the risk of developing liver diseases such as fibrosis and cirrhosis. While there is no direct link to cancer with simple sugary foods, it is with obesity. It increases the risk of developing breast, pancreatic and liver cancer. Also, some soft drinks contain harmful chemicals like benzene and methylimidazole. High blood sugar is also responsible for cancer.
What causes increased risk of liver cancer?
# can cause liver cancer due to genetic factors.
# Being overweight can increase the risk of this disease if you don't try to control it.
# Alcohol is also harmful to the liver.
# also causes hepatitis B or C infection in the liver. Jaundice can increase the risk of this cancer.
# is also a habit of many, leaving pickles or such foods for a long time. After a period of time, fungus can grow on it. This fungus contains aflatoxin, which is responsible for liver cancer.
What are the symptoms of liver cancer?
When cancer occurs in other parts of the human body, its symptoms can spread accordingly. Common symptoms such as fainting, vomiting blood, and mild upper abdominal pain may also occur. Loss of appetite can also be one of the symptoms. Doctors believe that these symptoms are often seen in patients with liver cirrhosis. However, although the symptoms of cancer and cirrhosis are the same, these two diseases are not the same disease - there are different diseases. Source: Anandabazar Patrika Online.

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
