Technology is a whole means to provide the goods necessary for the survival and comfort of human life. The use of technology by humans begins with the conversion of natural resources into simple tools. Prehistoric discovery of the ability to control the fire have raised the availability of food resources, while reinventing the wheel helped humans in traveling, and control their environment. Recent technological developments, including the printing press, the telephone, and the Internet, have far physical barriers to communication and allowed humans to interact freely on a global scale. However, not all technology is used for peaceful purposes; the development of increasingly intense destructive weapons has taken place throughout history, from clubs to nuclear weapons. Technology has affected society and its surroundings in many ways. In many societies, technology has helped improve the economy (including today’s global economy) and has allowed an increase in the leisure. Many technological processes produce unwanted byproducts, called polluters, and deplete natural resources, harming and damaging the Earth and its environment. Various kinds of application of technology has affected the value of a society and new technology often raises new ethical questions. For example, the widespread notion of efficiency in the context of human productivity, a term that was originally only involves machining, another example is the challenge of traditional norms. This is harmful to the environment and human isolate; advocate ideologies such as transhumanism and techno-progressivism view the process sustainable technologies as useful to the society, the human condition and health technology. Of course, at least until recently, it was believed that the development of the technology is only limited to the human race, but scientific studies newest hinted that other primates, and the community of dolphins particular have developed simple tools and learned to pass on their knowledge to their descendants.

2.2 Effect of Technological Progress in the Field of Health

Nowadays, information technology has grown very rapidly and have an impact to various fields of human life including the health sector. Progress in the health sector due to the technological advances in science. So many findings obtained from the information technology both in terms of organizing a treatment and the development of health research.

Advances in technology in the health sector growing so rapidly. The development of these technologies can be seen from the many changes to the system used in hospitals from ancient times to the present. Anciently systems used in the health sector is more user while the current changes in the health sector through a combination of technology has created a wide range of the latest treatment techniques that had never been considered before. The enormous technological advances in the field of health, with the development of technology impact the development of knowledge so fast. Such as, the use of information technology to support health information management that has the capability of processing more quickly with a variety of the latest innovative applications. In general the technology in the health field that are changing so rapidly that in the use of medical records. With a computer-based medical record will collect a variety of complete patient clinical data.

     Other technological advances that their electronic prescriptions. If in ancient times, prescribing manually even allow for mistakes. At this time, the electronic prescription is expected to reduce reading errors by others who treat these recipes into drugs given to patients. In addition, electronic prescriptions are part of a patient’s health record system that will help health workers to avoid the mistakes that typically occur in prescribing drugs such as drug interactions, how to use the wrong, or the prevention of drug-induced allergic reactions. In addition, the advanced tools in the health sector that serves to support the treatment of patients as an ultrasound machine that can detect the disease early, a heart transplant, a kidney transplant and other technology weapons development. The emerging technology demand the realization of positive impacts on people’s lives, especially in the health sector.

It is undeniable that advances in technology provide a lot of influence in the health field. That influence can be either positive or negative influence. With increasingly rapid technological advances bring great changes in the society.

Recent Health Technology Invention

  • MelaFind: Skin Cancer Scanner Based Electromagnetic Waves

This tool serves as a detector capable of distinguishing moles are harmless to skin cancer (melanoma), a deadly cancer that attacks the skin and has a shape similar to a mole. Examination of melanoma generally use a tissue sample or more commonly called a biopsy. However, sometimes the procedure is considered ineffective because it could be suspected of being a mole that turned out not dangerous cancer. This equipment utilizes the technology of photography with different types of electromagnetic wavelengths. Then the data obtained are matched with melanoma database that has been collected before. The following illustration sightings date device health

  • Aspirin Electric

Headaches and migraines can generally be relieved by aspirin. Now scientists succeeded in developing advanced medical devices that can fight the pain of migraines and headaches. These include a small electrical signal transmitter that can be implanted in cranial (skull), especially in the jaw bergusi. Such a device would emit electrical impulses to block pain signals emitted by the head part of the nervous system called the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) is.

  • Plaster Anti Diabetes

Controlling glucose levels or blood sugar in people with diabetes mellitus or diabetes is generally done using a blood test periodically. It is certainly very disturbing comfort and must be done carefully so as not infected with various types of disease-causing microbes. However, Echo Therapeutic, a provider of medical equipment successfully developed anti-diabetic plaster. The plaster can be applied to the skin and its bio-sensor will detect biochemical changes in the skin due to fluctuations in blood sugar levels. The information obtained is sent wirelessly to the special monitor. Easy, is not it? With anti-diabetic plaster, you do not need to bleed again to determine glucose in the blood.

Those are several advanced technologies for our health that we hope can help ourselves to decrease the pain or disease. Because as you know that, health is more important than others.

Weight Loss Body Wraps

by Posted in Weight Loss Tagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

It seems everywhere you go online these days you are blitzed with remarkable before and after pictures promoting some instant weight loss product. One such product that seems to be everywhere these days is the body wrap. Once only something you could have purchased in expensive salons, online companies now promise you even more spectacular results for a fraction of the cost of a salon treatment. Suddenly wrap parties are spreading like wildfire across America, usually promoted by events pages in social networking sites like Facebook. Here, at these wrap parties, women wear the wraps, take before and after pics and measurements, and then fall all over themselves for what is usually described as “magical” and “phenomenal” results. But if these wraps really do deliver on all these unbelievable promises, what in the world are in these wraps?

The most common and well renowned body wrap at this time is known as the It Works Ultimate Body Applicator, but more commonly known as “that crazy wrap thing”. This wrap was invented by a well-respected and highly acknowledged scientist by the name of Luis Mujares. It turns out that Mujares, also a well renowned herbalist, more or less stumbled upon this incredible formula on the quest to cure skin cancer. Once the “side effects” of the wraps were fully noticed, which for most people involved substantial and almost immediate inch loss, the wrap was quickly patented and eventually sold to a company called It Works as a health and beauty product. This body wrap quickly became the flagship product for the entire company, finally getting full exposure in recent years through the power of social media.

So how exactly does this body wrap work? Well, it apparently works on reducing the overall size of fat cells. You see overweight people are not larger because they contain more fat cells, they are larger because their fat cells have become enlarged and inflamed. In fact, scientists now claim that a single fat cell can grow to be approximately 1,000 times its original size. So the all-natural and herbal ingredients contained within the body wrap work together to promote a process called Lipolysis. This literally means “fat-breaking”. The plant extracts and botanical ingredients get into the fat cell and chop up the large fat molecules into smaller ones, which are now allowed to exit the cell. They are then burned up as energy somewhere else in the body. They are also flushed out of the system by drinking lots of water while wearing the wrap.

Now there will always be skeptics and naysayers out there who will assert that the claims made by It Works are far too good to be true. No body wrap or herbal supplement can ever cause you to shed inches in minutes, can it? Nevertheless, this crazy body wrap movement continues to gain momentum, and the web keeps getting flooded with incredible testimonials and amazing before and after pictures. People will always be looking for a quick fix to whatever it is that ails them, and these wraps are definitely no exception. How long this viral movement will last is anybody’s guess, but if the pictures and reviews keep flooding the net the way they have, we might never hear the end of this. Who knows, maybe I’ll even end up at a wrap party this weekend.
