Thina, abantu abadala, sinesibopho ngokuyinhloko ngezimpilo zethu nempilo yethu, kanye nempilo yezingane zethu. Ingabe sicabanga ukuthi yiziphi izinqubo ezibangelwa emzimbeni wengane okudla kwayo kusekelwe ekudleni kwanamuhla?
Kusukela ebuntwaneni, izifo ezinjenge-coronary heart disease kanye ne-atherosclerosis ziqala. Imithambo cishe yazo zonke izingane ezidla ukudla okujwayelekile kwesimanje sezivele zinemifudlana enamafutha uma sezineminyaka eyi-10, okuyisigaba sokuqala salesi sifo. Ama-plaque aqala ukwakheka lapho eseneminyaka engama-20, akhula kakhulu lapho eseneminyaka engama-30, bese eqala ukubulala ngokoqobo. Ngenhliziyo, kuba yisifo senhliziyo, futhi ebuchosheni, kuba unhlangothi.
Ungakumisa kanjani? Kungenzeka yini ukuhlehlisa lezi zifo?
Ake siphendukele emlandweni. Uxhaxha lwezibhedlela zezithunywa zevangeli ezamiswa e-Afrika eseningizimu yeSahara lwathola ukuthi kwakuyisinyathelo esibalulekile ekunakekelweni kwezempilo.
Omunye wezibalo zezokwelapha ezidume kakhulu zekhulu lama-20, udokotela waseNgilandi uDenis Burkitt, wathola ukuthi lapha, phakathi kwabantu base-Uganda (isifunda esiseMpumalanga Afrika), azikho izifo zenhliziyo. Kuphinde kwaphawulwa ukuthi ukudla okuyinhloko kwabahlali wukudla kwezitshalo. Badla imifino eminingi, imifino enesitashi nokusanhlamvu, futhi cishe wonke amaprotheni abo atholakala kuphela emithonjeni yezitshalo (imbewu, amantongomane, okusanhlamvu, njll.).
Izinga lokushaya kwenhliziyo ngokweqembu lobudala liqhathaniswa ne-Uganda ne-St. Louis, e-Missouri, e-USA lalimangalisa. Ekuhlolweni kwezidumbu ezingama-632 e-Uganda, yicala elilodwa kuphela elalikhombisa i-myocardial infarction. Ngenombolo efanayo yokuhlolwa kwezidumbu okuhambisana nobulili nobudala eMissouri, amacala ayi-136 aqinisekise isifo senhliziyo. Futhi lokhu kuphindwe izikhathi ezingaphezu kwe-100 izinga lokufa kwabantu ngenxa yesifo senhliziyo uma kuqhathaniswa ne-Uganda.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukuhlolwa kwezidumbu ezingaphezu kuka-800 kwenziwa e-Uganda, okubonise i-infarction eyodwa kuphela eyaphulukisiwe. Lokhu kusho ukuthi wayengeyena ngisho imbangela yokufa. Kwavela ukuthi isifo senhliziyo asivamile noma cishe asikho phakathi kwabantu, lapho ukudla kusekelwe ekudleni kwezitshalo.
Emhlabeni wethu ophucuzekile wokudla okusheshayo, sibhekene nezifo ezifana nalezi:
- ukukhuluphala ngokweqile noma i-hiatal hernia (njengenye yezinkinga zesisu ezivame kakhulu);
- i-varicose veins kanye nama-hemorrhoids (njengezinkinga ezivame kakhulu ze-venous);
- umdlavuza we-colon kanye ne-rectum, oholela ekufeni;
i-diverticulosis - isifo samathumbu;
i-appendicitis (isizathu esiyinhloko sokuhlinzwa okuphuthumayo kwesisu);
- isifo se-gallbladder (isizathu esiyinhloko sokuhlinzwa kwesisu okungaphuthumayo);
- isifo senhliziyo ye-ischemic (enye yezimbangela ezivame kakhulu zokufa).
Kodwa zonke lezi zifo ezingenhla azivamile kubantu base-Afrika abakhetha ukudla okusekelwe ezitshalweni. Futhi lokhu kusikisela ukuthi izifo eziningi ziwumphumela wokuzikhethela kwethu.
Ososayensi baseMissouri bakhetha iziguli ezinesifo senhliziyo futhi babeka ukudla okusekelwe esitshalweni ngethemba lokunciphisa lesi sifo, mhlawumbe nokusivimbela. Kodwa kunalokho kwenzeka okuthile okumangalisayo. Isifo sesishintshile. Iziguli zaba ngcono kakhulu. Ngokushesha lapho beyeka ukunamathela ekudleni kwabo okujwayelekile, okwehlisa imithambo, imizimba yabo yaqala ukuncibilikisa ama-cholesterol plaque ngaphandle kwezidakamizwa noma ukuhlinzwa, futhi imithambo yaqala ukuzivulekela.
Ukuthuthukiswa kokugeleza kwegazi kwabhalwa ngemva kwamasonto amathathu nje okudla okusekelwe ezitshalweni. Imithambo ivuleka ngisho nasezimeni ezimbi kakhulu zemithambo emithathu yemithambo yenhliziyo. Lokhu kukhomba ukuthi umzimba wesiguli ubulwela ukuba nempilo ngokuphelele, kodwa akazange anikezwe ithuba. Imfihlo yemithi ebaluleke kakhulu ukuthi ngaphansi kwezimo ezivumayo, umzimba wethu uyakwazi ukuzelapha.
Ake sithathe isibonelo sokuqala. Ukushaya umlenze wakho ongezansi kanzima phezu kwetafula lekhofi kungenza libe bomvu, lishise, livuvuke, noma livuvuke. Kodwa izophola ngokwemvelo ngisho noma singenzi mzamo wokupholisa ukulimala. Sivele sivumele umzimba wethu wenze into yawo.
Kodwa kuthiwani uma sihlala sishaya i-shin endaweni efanayo nsuku zonke? Okungenani kathathu ngosuku (kwasekuseni, kwasemini nakusihlwa).
Cishe ngeke saphola. Ubuhlungu buzozwakala ngezikhathi ezithile, futhi sizoqala ukuphuza amaphilisi ezinhlungu, sisaqhubeka nokulimaza umlenze ongezansi. Yebo, ngenxa yamaphilisi ezinhlungu, okwesikhashana singazizwa singcono. Kodwa, eqinisweni, ngokuthatha izinzwa, siqeda okwesikhashana imiphumela yesifo, futhi asiyiphathi imbangela eyinhloko.
Okwamanje, imizimba yethu ilwela ngokungakhathali ukubuyela endleleni yempilo ephelele. Kodwa uma sililimaza njalo, ngeke saphola.
Noma thatha, isibonelo, ukubhema. Kuvela ukuthi cishe eminyakeni eyi-10-15 ngemva kokuyeka ukubhema, ingozi yokuba nomdlavuza wamaphaphu iqhathaniswa nezingozi zomuntu ongabhemi. Amaphaphu angakwazi ukuzihlanza, akhiphe yonke itiyela, futhi ekugcineni aguquke abe sesimweni esinjengokungathi umuntu akakaze abheme nhlobo.
Ngakolunye uhlangothi, umuntu obhemayo udlula enqubweni yokuphulukiswa emiphumeleni yokubhema ubusuku bonke kuze kube umzuzu lapho ugwayi wokuqala uqala ukubhubhisa amaphaphu ngawo wonke amaphaphu. Njengomuntu ongabhemi uvala umzimba wakhe ngakho konke ukudla okungenamsoco. Futhi sidinga nje ukuvumela umzimba wethu ukuba wenze umsebenzi wawo, uqalise izinqubo zemvelo ezisibuyisela empilweni, ngaphansi kokwenqaba kwethu ngokuphelele imikhuba emibi nokudla okungenampilo.
Njengamanje, kunezinhlobonhlobo ezintsha zesimanje, ezisebenza kahle kakhulu futhi, ngokufanele, izidakamizwa ezibizayo emakethe yemithi. Kodwa ngisho nangethamo eliphezulu kakhulu, bangandisa isikhathi sokusebenza ngokomzimba ngamasekhondi angama-33 (njalo qaphela imiphumela emibi yezidakamizwa lapha). Ukudla okusekelwe ezitshalweni akuphephile kuphela, kodwa futhi ishibhile kakhulu, kodwa kusebenza ngokuphumelelayo kunanoma yimuphi umuthi.
Nasi isibonelo sempilo kaFrancis Greger waseNyakatho Miami, eFlorida, eU.SA. Lapho eneminyaka engu-65 ubudala, uFrances wathunyelwa ekhaya ngodokotela ukuba ayoshona ngoba inhliziyo yakhe yayingasenakwelashwa. Wahlinzwa izikhathi eziningi wagcina esehamba ngesihlalo esinamasondo, elokhu ecindezelekile esifubeni sakhe.
Ngolunye usuku, uFrances Greger wezwa ngesazi sokudla okunempilo uNathan Pritikin, owayengomunye wabokuqala ukuhlanganisa indlela yokuphila nemithi. Ukudla okusekelwe ezitshalweni kanye nokuzivocavoca umzimba okusesilinganisweni kwenza uFrancis wasimama emasontweni amathathu. Washiya isihlalo sabakhubazekile futhi wayesekwazi ukuhamba amakhilomitha angu-10 ngosuku.
UFrances Greger waseNyakatho Miami ushone eneminyaka engu-96 ubudala. Ngenxa yokudla okusekelwe ezitshalweni, waphila eminye iminyaka engu-31, ejabulela ukuba nomkhaya wakhe nabangane, kuhlanganise nabazukulu abayisithupha, omunye wabo owaba udokotela odumile emhlabeni wonke. isayensi yezokwelapha. yona UMichael Greger. Ukhuthaza imiphumela yezifundo ezinkulu zokudla okunomsoco ezifakazela ubuhlobo phakathi kwezempilo nokudla.
Yini ozozikhethela yona? Ngethemba ukuthi wenze ukukhetha okufanele.
Ngifisa wonke umuntu alandele ngokuqaphela indlela yokuphila enempilo egcwele, azikhethele yena nabathandekayo bakhe konke okuhle, okubaluleke kakhulu nokubalulekile.
Zinakekele!
