HOW SHOULD WE FEED? Scientific in Turkey studies show that a diet poor in processed carbohydrates, high dietary fiber, rich in monounsaturated fatty acids (Omega-9), high in Omega-3 to Omega-6 and rich in vegetables and fruits has the strongest anti-inflammatory content.

Foods that fit this description, are the vegetablessuch as (spinach, celery, beets, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, mushrooms, radishes, onions, garlic), fruit (oranges, apples, pears, strawberries, cherries, blueberries, tropic pineapple), legumes, Turkish spices (turmeric, ginger, black pepper), nuts, whole grains, fish, turkey, poultry such as chicken, lamb, goat, animal meat, such as beef and natural extra virgin olive oil.

In the minds of most people whose relatives died due to cancer, the question “will I have cancer?” the question takes place. Studies on this issue show that 90-95% of many cancers, including lung, prostate, bowel and skin cancer, are not inherited in people except in a few cases.

The place of cancer in society Currently, cancer is the cause of two out of every ten deaths in America. This rate is also high in our country. For example, if 10 of your relatives have died, it is not familial that the cause of death of 2or 3 of them is cancer, but an expected result. If allof these people who have died have smoked in their health, the fact that more than 3 out of 10 people have died due to cancer is again a statistically expected result.

Studies conducted with identical twins also provide similar results, if one of the twins has cancer, therate of cancer of the other twin was not found to be different from other individuals in society.

23

Very few people with cancer have underlying familial factors. In this rare inherited group, cancer-sensitive genes are passed on to other members of the family.

These genes do not directly cause cancer because a number of mutations are required for the development of cancer. This is also the reason why cancer is more common in adults than in children, because the time necessary for the accumulation of errors is provided. People who carry such genes are more susceptible to environmental factors that cause cancer compared to people who do not carry them.

What are the genes that are known to be associated with cancer?

Genes that are sensitive to certain types of cancer have been identified, and it has been found that most of these damaged genes cause cancer in certain organs. For example, BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are involved in breast, ovarian and prostate cancers, APC, KRAS, MSH2 and MLH1 genes are involved in bowel cancer, VHL gene is involved in von HippelLindau syndrome, and STK11 gene is involved in Peutz-Jeggers syndrome. TP53 and RB1, on theother hand, are associated with many non-familial and spontaneously developing cancers.

environment) is effective in combination with these genes in terms of laying the foundation for cancer.

The absence of mutations in genetic tests does not mean that there is no risk and there is no definite cure for cancer, only that the possibility of developing a hereditary form of cancer is largely eliminated. The risk of developing non-hereditary cancer remains the same as in other individuals in society.

Can we avoid mutations and cancer?

In fact, mutation is not a very unnatural condition for a cell, we all experience mutations every day. These mutations/s occurring in the DNA are detected by the cell and are also repaired by the products of repair genes.

In research, it has been found that when a healthy cell is fused with a cancer cell, the cells that divide and multiply from this new cell that are formed arenot cancer cells, but normal cells. This is because proteins, which are products of repair genes in a healthy cell, repair disorders (mutations) in a cancer cell. It is possible to prevent cancer by keeping our genes intact by taking care of our nutrition and lifestyle.

In people who carry mutant (abnormal) copies ofthese genes, these types of cancer are observed more often than in society. A person’s lifestyle (nutrition, smoking, alcohol consumption, work

WHY DO OUR EYES DRY UP, SYMPTOMS AND TREATMENT Turkey Medicals member and Hatay hospital Eye Health and Diseases Specialist Dr. gave recommendations for the prevention of “dry eye” disease in society and in medicine.

According to Specialist Dr., there are three conditions for dry eye disease to not occur, and listed them as good tear quantity and quality, smoothness of the corneal surface, and the ability of the eyelids to function well.

Highlighting the 4 reasons that make up the dry eye problem, among these reasons, Specialist cited the deterioration of eye health due to the deceleration of

Noting that normally a person blinks 12-15 times a minute, while tears can remain on the corneal surface for 15-45 seconds without disturbing the uniformity of the film layer, Specialist Dr. said, “Focusing on a very careful point, reading books, spending long periods of time at the computer can reduce the number of blinks. Normally, when blinking 900 times an hour, this number can go down to 100. Factors such as air conditioning and cigarette smoke also reduce the time of tear rupture. In addition, dry eye can also occur with vitamin A deficiencies,” she said.

Symptoms of illness Specialist Dr. noted that the main symptoms of dry eye disease include redness, burning and stinging, blurred vision, sticking, feeling stuck, excessive watering, noting that dry eye is a problem that can lead to blindness.

Specialist Dr. who said that when the functions of

25

tears disappear, the eyes become prone to infection, said: “Oxygen cannot be transported in a healthy way. Since the cornea is a non-vascular structure, it is supplied with oxygen, when this nutrition is disrupted, vascularizations and cracks occur in the cornea.

These are a focus for infection. Structural changes can occur that will lead to a truly permanent loss of vision. Therefore, it is important to protect the tear as much as possible and keep the eye wet,” she explained.

Specialist Dr. listed the main causes of dry eye disease as follows: “If the blink reflex is reduced, there may be problems with the nerves regulating the blinking mechanism due to the presence of certain diseases, and keratitis occurs. In valve problems, weakness in valve function may occur with the development of facial paralysis.

The outward rotation of the eye for reasons such as thyroid or tumor, the outward rotation of the lid in old age or after trauma are factors that disrupt the transport of tears.

“It is aimed at increasing the production of tears with the help of various medications. Trying to prevent the tear from escaping. Tears are normally produced from the tear gland, transported by the functions of the lid and come to the tear sac. There is a system of channels in the lacrimal sac, these channels open to the lower part of the nose. It can reduce dryness if it is lacerated with tears. There are tiny holes that allow passage into the channels, they are clogged. Laser application or silicone plugs are being placed. These plugs can stay there for six months to a year.

An attempt is being made to reduce the evaporation of tears by using low-water lenses and/or glasses.

Tears can be replaced. They can be in the form of drops and gels, as well as in the form of pomade. If a person has a lack of vitamins A and B12 in his body, vitamin support is performed.

The pH ratio needs to be kept at a certain level.

If the valve has turned outward and there is valve paralysis, valve surgery can be performed. A person needs to create a healthier environment by balancing environmental factors. It is important to have a Tears can also decrease during menopause smoke-free environment, not to use air conditioning, If there are problems with eyelashes, infection of the spend less time at the computer and adjust the sebaceous glands, eye diseases such as trachoma, humidity balance of the house. The pH ratio needs special types of conjunctivitis, certain drug reactions, to be kept at a certain level. If the valve has turned and skin diseases can disrupt the balance in the eye outward and there is valve paralysis, valve surgery structure. In case of a decrease in tears, there are can be performed.” problems with the tear glands.

These problems can be caused by the absence or small size of the tear gland, as well as damage to the tear gland due to causes such as inflammation, tumor, radiation, burn, and trauma. Simultaneous disorders in other glands secreting in the body also need to be investigated. The amount of tears can decrease with hormonal effects in menopause and pregnancy.”

A person needs to create a healthier environment by balancing environmental factors. It is important to have a smoke-free environment, not to use air conditioning, spend less time at the computer and adjust the humidity balance of the house.

Allergy, which is a common health problem in all age groups, is more common in childhood. So much so that in our country, one out of every 3 children is diagnosed with an ‘allergy’. The most common allergic factor in spring and summer is ‘pollen’. Mainly tree pollen is responsible for the spring period, meadow-grass pollen is responsible for the summer Doctor listed erroneous habits that trigger summer

period, and weed pollen is responsible for the end of summer and autumn period. In addition, fungi, insects, sunlight and some nutrients are important causes of allergies in children during all three periods. The main principle of protecting children from allergic diseases is to keep them away from responsible allergens.

Child Allergy Specialist Prof. Dr. pointing out that it is extremely important for parents to avoid mistakes

that trigger summer allergies, said, “Another point to be considered should not be deceived by the good weather in the summer and disrupt the treatments.

Parents should always have medicines with them that will be used in case of emergency. Becauseespecially in children with asthma and allergic rhinitis, for example, symptoms in the form of a crisis can occur after an encounter with intense pollen,”he said, explaining the 8 erroneous habits that trigger summer allergies in children:

your child in the summer, as this will lead to his intense exposure to pollen.

Staying under the sun during these hours

The fact that the child is out between 10.00 and 16.00, when the sun’s rays are at their steepest on it, can cause sun allergy. Therefore, at this time, if possible, do not take it outside, if necessary, wear thin and long-sleeved clothes that cover your body. It is beneficial for children to receive the sun’s rays for a short time, so apply a sunscreen product to their skin Keeping doors and windows open 15-30 minutes after going out into the sun. Repeat the Keeping the doors and windows of the house open procedure every 3 hours. Do not take into accountthis between 05.00-10.00 in the morning and the windows time when you enter the sea or pool, re-feed the of the car open during the trip, taking the child outside product to your child’s skin. for a long time during these hours increases the exposure to pollen, as there is intense pollen Dressing up in colorful, floral clothes outdoors. Do not open the doors and windows of your home during these hours, and if possible, do Insect allergies in children are quite common, not take your child out onto the street. If you need to especially in the summer season. ”Among insects, go out with your child, do not forget to use masks, bees, mosquitoes and ants cause allergies most glasses and hats. Also keep the car windows closed often,” warns Allergy Specialist who listed suggestions as follows: and make a habit of turning on the pollen filter.

Drying clothes outdoors Drying a child’s clothes outdoors during pollenintensive hours is also one of the important mistakes made. This is due to the fact that pollen can stick to clothes and cause allergic reactions. Be sure to dry your laundry at home during the peak pollen season.

Not washing hands, face and eyes Not washing hands, face, eyes and nose at the end of the day, continuing to wear the same clothes can also cause pollen to remain in the body for a long time.

Make sure that your child takes a bath every day, if possible, and change his clothes.

Do not dress your child in short-sleeved and short-decked clothes outdoors, as this can attract bees and other insects. Also avoid clothes with flowers and flowers that resemble flowers, such as pink, yellow, and red, which may be of interest to bees.

Another point that you should pay attention to should be the smells. Do not apply cream or cologne to your child that can emit a floral scent. These errors can lead to anaphylaxis reactions that can be fatal in children who are sensitive to insects.

Ignoring the pollen status

Taking it outside immediately after the rain

Not knowing the pollen status of the destination during It is necessary not to take the child out into the open the trip is still one of the important mistakesto avoid. air immediately after the rain. Because even though Remember that each geographical region has its own the number of pollen in the air decreases during the plant diversity and pollen distribution, and therefore rain, the number of pollen in the air can rise suddenly. always take into account the pollen status when Therefore, if possible, take your child outside an hour traveling. after the rain.

Food allergies occur because our immune system has an abnormal response to nutrients. Symptoms can be seen in a single organ or in several organ systems such as the skin, intestinal tract. Food supplement, which are one of the most important problems experienced in infancy and childhood, sometimes give symptoms in the first months of infancy before the start of additional food, sometimes

as soon as the start of transfer food. Stating that babies with a family history of allergies have a 2-4 times higher risk of allergies than usual, Children’s Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Specialist Prof. Dr. listed the most common symptoms of food allergies as follows: “Food allergies in infants and young children poo green mucous and sometimes bloody, diarrhea, obstinate constipation, severe colic pains, atopic dermatitis, or eczema, urticaria (hives), recurrent attacks of wheezing and cough, or nasal congestion, runny nose is shaped like. Sometimes severe and persistent vomiting, such as reflux, difficulty eating and inability to gain weight can be the only symptom of food allergy in infancy. Cow’s milk, eggs, fish, peanuts, nuts, walnuts, dried nuts such as pistachios, soy, wheat, pulses and sesame are the most common nutrients that can cause food allergies.”

How is food allergy diagnosed?

When the diagnosis is delayed in food allergies, growth and development retardation may occur.

Sometimes, with an incorrect diagnosis, some children may also have to follow unnecessary diets for a long time. Prof. Dr. recalled that against this background, the patient’s history is very important: “The content and amount of food consumed, the time of appearance and improvement of symptoms, whether there were similar reactions before and after, the characteristics of the symptoms (it may be useful to photograph) should be well known. According to the information obtained from the history, skin prick tests to be performed by a child allergist by selecting allergens can help in the diagnosis. Skin tests can be done in any age group from the first day of life.

Looking at nutrient-specific IgE in serum can also help diagnose, but its clinical value is lower compared

to the skin prick test. In food allergies, sometimes the diagnosis may not be made with a skin test and/or a food-specific IgE measurement in serum. In the light of this information, elimination and then loading tests can be performed for suspicious foods.”

Food allergy in children may improve There is no proven treatment method for food allergies. Stressing that avoiding foods and products that the patient is allergic to is the only way to prevent reactions, Prof. Dr. these dietary processes, he said, can be a heavy physical and psychological burden on both the mother and the baby.

Professor Doctor for this reason, drew attention to the importance of adjusting and regulating the nutritional requirements of both the mother and the baby at the age of rapid growth specific to the patient and closely monitoring the growth and development of the baby in this process.

Reminding that there is a possibility of improvement of food allergies in children, Prof. Dr. “Milk, egg,wheat and soy allergies mostly improve over the years. In contrast, allergies to nuts, fish and shellfish are more likely to be permanent. Therefore, patients should be evaluated at certain intervals, a loading test should be performed and it should be followed whether it decelerates or not.”

“The risk increases more if the person’s mother, brother or aunt, such as relatives, have previously had this disease,” said Professor, who said that the family history of the disease is important.

The most common method of detection is as a result of manual control of one’s own breast. Because of the awareness of young patients, it can now be detected earlier. In such a situation, it is necessary to be examined by seeing a specialist doctor in Turkey without wasting time.

Because some tumors are larger, the tumor is reduced by chemotherapy treatment before surgery.

Radiation therapy can also be performed against the possibility of recurrence of breast cancer.”

With the developing technology in breast cancer, the patient can be discharged after 1 day or even on the same day. Early treatment increases the chances of success.

HOW DOES THE REGULAR USE OF OMEGA-3 AFFECT THE DEVELOPMENT OF INTELLIGENCE

Fish oils are at the top of the food supplements that doctors recommend the most for children. So why is fish oil so important? Turkey Medicals member and JCI Antalya hospital Specialist in Children’s Health and Diseases Prof. Dr. recommended from the age of 1 the great benefits of liquid fish oil regular use upon the healthy development of children by describing, “pregnancy and the breastfeeding period regularly since omega-3 showed that children’s intelligence 47

scores higher than others in tests need to be met,” he development,” he said. said.

How does regular use of Omega-3 affect the Omega-3 is a must-have nutrient for children. Since development of intelligence in children the age of 1, small children should regularly meet their Omega-3 needs, stating that they constantly warn “Which shall we prefer?” Doctor, who also made parents, Child Health and Disease Specialist Prof. Dr. suggestions to those who asked, suggested liquid fish said, “Because the fastest December of brain oils obtained from cod fish, which are in the form of development is in the 0-3 age range and a significant Cod Liver Oil, and added: part of the brain is composed of the Omega-3 fatty acid DHA. There are many studies that show that “Because you meet both high levels of DHA and EPA, children who take Omega-3 regularly every day as well as vitamins D and A, which are important for during this period are very beneficial for baby brain child development.” development. It is very important that the mother regularly meets the need for Omega-3 forthe brain ‘It is necessary to use it in all seasons’ development of the unborn baby during pregnancy.

After birth, the Omega-3 needed by the baby is Doctor, who said that there is incorrect information left passed on to the child through breast milk. In other from the past in the form of “the use of fish oilis words, during pregnancy and breastfeeding, thebaby Dec in the summer“, said, “Is the body that cannot also benefits from this Omega-3 by meeting the produce Omega-3 in winter starting to produce Omega-3 at the same time in the summer? Of course, mother’s own Omega-3 needs. no. For this reason, Dec is a great benefit to use 4 In a study conducted by Norwegian scientists, it was seasons of the year without a break so that you can found that children who regularly need Omega-3 see the necessary benefit,” he said. during pregnancy, pregnancy and childhood score much higher on the intelligence test administered when they reach the age of 4 than others. Omega-3 has numerous benefits not only for brain development, but also for the healthy growth of children. It helps to have a strong immune system, reducing inflammation, which is a common cause of many diseases. A serious decrease in the rate of heart and vascular disease is also observed in people who regularly use Omega-3,” he said.

We have to meet omega-3 fatty acids from the outside Since we cannot produce omega-3 fatty acids in the body, we must definitely take it from the outside, Prof.

Dr. said, “So how many families are there in our country that can regularly feed their child fish every week? Unfortunately, very little. For this reason, starting the use of liquid fish oil for a child who has reached the age of 1 is of great importance for regular Omega-3 intake. it is worth noting that children who use about 500 mg of liquid fish oil per day until the age of 3 and about 1000 mg every day after the age of 3 are lucky to have a healthy brain and baby body

As a doctor, they recommend liquid fish oils for children’s use, stating that these oils meet the child’s needs with higher amounts of EPA and DHA, and are the most natural form of fish oil. Dr. said, “I don’t prefer Omega-3 supplements that are presented in the form of gels or candies to encourage consumption. Because compared to liquid fish oil, the amount of DHA and EPA in them is very small. In addition, many additives can be used to prepare fish oil in the form of sugar. For this reason, the most correct fish oils for your child are those that are in liquid form. As in our childhood, you don’t have to worry about whether children will use liquid fish oil.

Children are now very comfortable using liquid fish oils flavored with natural aromas. Because there are fish oils that are quite tasty in taste and that children can use with love,” he said.

Be careful when trying to save money Stating that many brands were derived especially during the pandemic period after the importance of fish oils was understood by families, Prof. Dr. concluded his words as follows:

“However, the production of fish oil is an extremely sensitive issue. Based on the amount of Omega-3 written on the label of a product whose production quality is unclear, I think it is inconvenient to choose it just because its price is appropriate. Because it is extremely important for our children to have confidence in a product that we use constantly. “

For this reason, I believe that reliable brands derived from fish living in cold seas that have proven their worth in the field of Omega-3 for many years should be preferred.
