Worm infestation in stomach

Worms are a very common in unhygienic conditions . This is especially for children who play in soil and eat without washing hands. These worms grow well inside stomach taking away all our nutrition. This results in poor nutritional profile of child and howmuch ever the child eats , he or she may look very weak. Giving Albendazole is a remedy. this syrup can be taken once in 6 months. This not only kills the worms in stomach but also the E.coli and other bacteria in stomach. our stomach houses bacteria ( less than 20,000 colonies) which help in absorption of vitamins and minerals from our stomach. When deworming is done , it kills the bacteria too. hence vitamin and mineral absorption is hindered. How can be rectify this condition ? supplementing with yeast , from natural sources and more intake of vitamins is required. Hence one can have sour curds rich in yeast and bacteria that help in vitamin and mineral absorption . Drinking more juices and having more greens also add on to the vitamin and mineral supplementation. That is why after treatment from hospitalisation , doctors give yeast packet , sachharomyces so that vitamins and essentials nutrients are absorbed by the stomach.
When zinc and selenium which are required for hair growth are not absorbed easily from the stomach, there is hair loss .
Also zinc deficieny and nutritional deficiency is seen as white patches on the face like that of fungal infection .
Hygienic conditions are hence a must. Children should be insisted on washing their hands with soap before food. In case of addiction to chocolates , the glucose in it helps in growth of worms. Hence deworming is suggested once in 6 months. subsequent to deworming , intake of juices and natural bacterial supplements is suggested. 

Science Day Feb 28th - in honour of Sir C.V Raman

About Sir C.V.Raman

First Indian to receive Nobel prize

He received Nobel Prize in 1930 for Raman Effect. He received Bharat Ratna in 1954.

He is an Indian Physicist

When light travels through a transparent medium, there is change in wavelength of the some of the deflected light. This is called Raman scattering.

Science day is celebrated every year on Feb 28^th in honour of C.V.Raman

Raman effect in brief

Raman Effect: fingerprinting the universe-Excerpts from 2010 Times of India

Sir CV Raman won the 1930 Nobel Prize for discovering the "Raman effect".

His discovery has finally become a breakthrough technology.

Raman scanners, weighing just one-third of a kilo, are being used as Hand-held scanners at airports to detect drugs , explosives, hazardous chemicals and gases. 

Police forces are using Raman scanners for forensic work.

The scanners work by detecting the molecular structure of the object they are scanning.

When a beam of light falls on an object, a very small part of it interacts with the atoms of the object and scatters light in a pattern which is unique for a particular molecule. This is the Raman Effect.

Raman scattering is difficult to detect

Lasers are needed to amplify the signal.

Every molecule has a different Raman pattern and hence Raman scanning is called the fingerprinting of the universe

Normally to find the chemical composition of a substance we need to carry out many chemical and physical tests. This is a time consuming process. In this process we use the substance taken for analysis and hence it is a destructive process. Raman scanning takes just 20 seconds. It does not require cutting, extracting or destroying a substance.
