According to a U.S. study that Almdoama to read and solve crossword puzzles and calculations mental life can reduce the opportunity to develop dementia.
Scientists have found who has sought in 65 cases of healthy elderly in the age of 76 who were attending to this matter was to have a less destructive of the protein - known as beta amyloid - associated with Alzheimer's disease than those who were less active mentally.
And a survey of researchers compared the brain at the University of California, Berkeley, levels of amyloid plaques of 65 volunteers with 11 others in the twenties.
Said Dr. William Jagust - Professor at the Institute of Berkeley, Helen Wills Neuroscience, who led the study - that this indicates that cognitive therapy can have a significant therapeutic benefit if applied early enough before the onset of symptoms.
For his part, urged Dr. Simon Ridley, Head of Research Alzheimer's Association, the British research, to take precautions when you come to any conclusions.
He added that while the study found an association between cognitive activity and levels of amyloid protein in the brains of healthy adult volunteers can not be inferred that one causes the other directly. It is important to follow these healthy participants and stand on whether those who have higher cognitive activity were less likely to develop Alzheimer's in the long term.

Scientific study conducted in the United States on the impact of some components of the so-called "Mate Tea" in the fight against colon cancer cells.

The study carried out by researchers from the University of Illinois, U.S., that some compounds that are found in what is known as tea, "yerba mate" or "Mate" can stimulate the process of cell death in colon cancer tumors in humans.

The Tea Mate of medicinal herbs is believed to have many health benefits and is preparing a beverage hot belongs to the category of stimulants such as tea, and dates of origin of the herbs in the origin to the continent of South America, specifically Bragoae, and widespread use in a number of Arab countries like Syria and Lebanon.

A team of researchers conducted a study in the laboratory on samples of colon cancer cells in humans that have been isolated, and then subjected to treatment by acid derivatives Alcafuelaqueenik in Mate tea.

The results of experiments published in the journal "Science of Nutrition and Molecular Research food" that the increased concentration of acid derivatives Alcafuelaqueenik that were exposed colon cancer cells has led to the death of cancer cells in a process of "suicide cell" or "programmed death", which is used by When the cells it infects a large defect or damage caused by the adult can not be processed.

Kill cells
The researchers in a report published by the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences, Environment and Consumer Sciences at the University of Illinois Aarbana on its website, they were able to identify the mechanism that has worked through these compounds to kill cells.

Where some of them by reducing the levels of molecules associated with operations of tension in the body which regulates the role of many genes affecting the process of cell suicide, through the production of important enzymes.

The researchers believe that the results of the study strongly suggest that the derivatives of compounds of caffeine in Mate tea can be an anti-cancer agents, may help in treating some diseases related to exudative reactions in the body.

However, its role may be more useful in the colon, as this part of the body plays a major role in the uptake and metabolism of compounds related to caffeine.

The study team believes that the results provide evidence supporting the existence of vital benefits of Mate tea, especially when there is reason to feel concerned about the possibility of the emergence of cancerous tumors in the colon.

Israeli pressure to displace the Christians of Palestine

Lane Christians in Jerusalem, which is witnessing increasing migration of its citizens more than others

Atef Douglas - Nablus
Palestinian Christians suffer from the increasing pressure and the Organization at the hands of the Israeli occupation of pushing them to migrate in an unprecedented way in all areas of their presence in the West Bank, particularly in the city of Jerusalem, and their numbers began to decline dramatically after 2000.
 According to statistics obtained by Alice to the average annual number of immigrants arrived to 600 Christians from all the Palestinian territories after 2000.
The Secretary-General of the Islamic-Christian support of Jerusalem and holy sites Hanna Issa that the occupation has persistently deportation of Palestinian Christians and other Muslims, but his focus was more on the Christians because they are less numerous.
He explained that the occupation wants to turn to a religious conflict between Jews and Muslims, as well as trying to eliminate the co-existence and religious tolerance between Christians and Muslims, in addition to the basic objective is the draining of the cities of its indigenous population of the Palestinians.
And spreads over 40 thousand Christians in the West Bank is focused a large part of them in the town of Beit Sahour, the center of the West, while living about 1250 in the Gaza Strip, and the number of Christians in Jerusalem since 2000 to about ten thousand people after he arrived Tadeddahm to about 13 thousand before that year.
Dangerous escalationHe warned Hanna and Christian leaders with the escalation of violations against Christians, which are threatening the social fabric of the Christian, and called to address the Israeli practices and strengthen their presence especially in Jerusalem.
Israel has imposed on Christians and Muslims penalties social and economic, was deprived of the "reunion" for families, especially in Jerusalem, as it has been the withdrawal of the identity of any man to marry outside of Jerusalem, "and if the child is born to a Christian family in the West Bank, Israel refuses to recognize it."
And Christians face higher penalties than others because of their numbers at least - by Ziad Hammouri director of the Jerusalem Center for Social and Economic Rights - where not more than 2% of the number of Palestinians, "Therefore, any action against them, either demolition or relocation of a size larger to them than others and receive Highlighting more ".
Said Hammouri of the island that is what makes Christians are under pressure to displace the wider ownership of land from the territory of others inside the Old City of Jerusalem.
He also said that part of the church officials are not Palestinians or Arabs, "and those who lease property of the church for many years, and part of them has bought property of churches and property of Christians," adding that this makes the risk of expropriation and displacement greater.
Israel has imposed on the Jerusalemites many kinds of taxes, the most important tax, local taxes, "property" in addition to the siege and closure imposed on the city and led to the loss of many people for their work and brought the poverty rate, including more than 70%.
He Hammouri that Israel notified the nine places in the church last year for demolition, demolished as part of the church in the Christian quarter of Old City.
And nationalIn the opinion of the Archbishop of Sebastia of the Roman Orthodox Archbishop Atallah Hanna, the danger is that the occupation wants to turn the conflict into a religious "because he wants to show Palestine in one color and one group."
According to Atallah troubled occupation of the national defense of the Christians and Velstinithm, and thus fear of exposing the world for its crimes and violations against the Palestinians.
Israel and the exercise by the President of the National Rally Dmitry Dliani Christian Jerusalem "ethnic cleansing" against Jerusalemites especially those who are Christians, for fear of exposing the occupation and its crimes through their relations with the West.
According to Director of the way to liberation theology in Jerusalem priest Naim Ateek, this role does not rely upon a lot, because there are a lot of Western countries that are attacking Palestinian Christians, and is working to support the occupation at their expense, "but we win the favor of the world to us through a policy of consciousness that we do and our resistance the peace. "
He called Atiq global Christian leaders to take the role of the defense of Palestinian Christians and their support morally and financially to ensure their steadfastness.
