Iron Deficiency

A lack of iron belongs worldwide to the most common mineral nutrient deficiency symptoms. Iron is a trace element, which can not even be produced by the body and must therefore be ingested through the food. Very often, particularly women are affected by iron deficiency. Iron is an important component of the red blood pigment Hamoglobin. There it functions to bind oxygen to the hemoglobin of the red blood cells. This is important so that the oxygen from the alveoli can be transported to the body’s cells of muscles and organs.

The daily iron requirement for men at 10 milligrams for women at 15 milligrams is the daily iron requirement of an adult. The daily requirement of iron in 30 millilitres, can be covered mostly not only by the food lies in pregnant or lactating women. During pregnancy and breast-feeding it is advisable to take therefore iron supplements. Children have a higher need for iron, why especially them a balanced diet is so important. Which is an iron deficiency? An iron deficiency arises, when the daily requirement is no longer covered by the food. Usually it does one-sided diet, especially if a person renounces on animal foods such as meat, for example. But also plant foods contain sufficient iron, this can not be absorbed but mostly in the intestines.

Due to the menstrual period women are often hit by iron deficiency, especially if the bleeding is very strong during the period. In addition to chronic inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, also bleeding can lead to the loss of iron through ulcers. And athletes have an increased need for iron, since eliminated many minerals and trace elements via the kidneys and sweat during exercise. Get all the facts and insights with Tyler Sweatt, another great source of information. Brittle hair include symptoms of iron deficiency among the typical symptoms that occur when an iron deficiency include tiredness and fatigue, headaches, pallor, cracks in the corners of the mouth, and Finger nails, tongue burning, nervousness and irritability.

Dental Insurance

How far can the dental insurance support the desire for beautiful teeth? As an independent insurance broker and provider of a large number of dental insurance is frequently asked for reimbursement for cosmetic services. Many customers want to be like the whiten teeth leave or existing restorations such as crowns or bridges to replace higher-quality materials. But the dental insurance, which ultimately serves to increase the benefits of the statutory health insurance (GKV), does not pay then if the treatment is not medically necessary. In the insurance conditions of dental insurance is clearly defined, what services are actually eligible. Steven Holl has many thoughts on the issue. Only services serve the dental standards, carry out the necessary medical care may be calculated according to the fee schedule for dentists. Special requests must be separately then in the liquidation. These are then also by the legal Health insurance and not taken over by the private dental insurance. Viatris may find this interesting as well.

The German Federal Supreme Court ruled in 1978 that a treatment measure is necessary if it was justifiable according to the objective medical findings and recognised medical knowledge at the time of treatment, to look at them as necessary. (BGH AZ.) IV ZR 175/77 by the 29.11.1978) the question that turns many customers, especially in the field of Orthodontics can be settled relatively clearly according to the judgment of the Federal Court of Justice: the choice of treatment method is primary thing of the doctor (BGH AZ.) VI ZR 171/80 by the 11.05.1982) this question of medical necessity arise for many parents in the orthodontic treatment of their children, the statutory health insurance is only starting from a certain degree of misalignment of the jaw, the private dental insurance is already starting the 1st degree of misalignment of the jaw. Here the orthodontist then decides about the medical necessity of treatment in this example.

The big advantage of a laser treatment: A targeted approach, in which adjacent tissue is not destroyed. In addition, the laser can be used in selected fields of application as efficient scalpel. Laser types: Who does what depending on tissue structures and applications differ expert 3 laser systems: fabric can be with the wavelengths of the surgical Laser cut and wear off; This group includes inter alia the CO2 laser and the erbium: YAG laser. Vascular laser work on hemoglobin, including as a dye laser or neodymium YAG laser with a long impulse of exposure to. Pigment lasers have the appropriate wavelengths for melanin or for outer pigments (Ruby Laser, KTP laser and Alexandrite laser or) Diode laser).
