Rice crisis in the Philippines

Is it really there's a crisis in rice here in the Philippines or it's just a part of the plan of our President to caught our attention and forget the issue of ZTE case she'd been link?

This question comes up on my mind when a tricycle driver told us that it might be the reason. When I open the television and saw hundreds and thousands of people who are falling in line just to buy rice, I feel pity. Especially when I saw them crying because there are people can't buy during that day because the allowable kilograms of rice to be sold in the market is already done. And now, what happens to the Philippines? Why is it we are now buying rice from abroad? I just wonder how long will this last. What I am most concerned is the effect of this in health among my beloved filipinos.

Tawa-tawa herbal plant

Dengue are known to lower the platelet count of patients. Even though there is no studies that support the rumor that tawa-tawa helps curing patients with dengue, there are some medical practitioners here in the philippines who are suggesting the use of tawa-tawa with dengue patients because of its miraculous effect that highers their platelet counts.

Magnetotherapy a.k.a Magnetic Therapy

During this days there are new trends in health field and of course as health care providers we are updated about the health news... Recently, my mother order a magnetic bracelet from her friend and wanted to try the effect of it because it was endorsed that it reduces back pain and other chief complaints... As for now she confirmed that it was effective, after being tired from work, she feels relief but still finding other effects... In terms of efficacy, I wanted to share what I searched from the internet, it was from wikipedia.com here it goes, Recent studies conducted by Dr. Thomas Skalak of the University of Virginia's Department of Biomedical Engineering has shown that moderate strength magnetic fields can reduce inflammation from injury in rats. A trial of magnetic therapy for the treatment of wrist pain from carpal tunnel syndrome and chronic low back pain did not find any health benefits above placebo. Blinding the patients and the practitioners to the therapy is difficult since magnetization can be easily detected, e.g., by the attraction force it produces on ferrous objects. A randomized controlled trial has found a statistically significant effect using non-magnetic and weak magnetic bracelets as controls against strong magnets. However, blinding was not perfect, as patients can assess the magnetic strength of the bracelets. A study on humans of static field strengths up to 1 T found no effect on local blood flow.

AIKICOMJUKADO MEMBER

I'm a member of N-E AIKICOM JUKADO MARTIAL ARTS INSTITUTE under Grand Master Shihan Nelson Eresma Sr.-12th Degree Blackbelt and he's my Master also in Tae Kwon Do in our school called the Davao Doctors College Martial Arts Club also known as DDCMAC. The title of the institue means, AI for aikido, KI for Kick boxing, COM for combat, JU for judo, K for karate, A for arnis, and DO for dozu. My highest grade during the exam for green belt is the aikido, but what I practice so much is the arnis. When taking the exam I am very exhausted because you need to do all the katas, forms, and the like with no rest. And in the last part you need to do karate against two knives(real kitchen knife). At first, I was surprised because during my practice I was only taught to fight against one knife. But I'm happy after the exam, because it finally ended. Currently I'm still in green belt level and not able to finish my training due to hectic schedule as a nursing and a graduating student, hope to be back in practice soon...
