Microbiological Study of Conventional Drinks in Mirpur Area, North Dhaka City of Bangladesh

Fruit juices are incredibly popular because of how tasty and fresh they are. These juices contain all the nutritional benefits that were found in whole fruits. Juices are a nutritious beverage for people of all ages. People enjoys these drinks to meet their thirst almost every day during their work break or way to work. However, the situation is very different if they are exposed to pathogenic microorganisms when the juice is being processed. Juice might provide the bacteria with adequate chances to survive and grow because of its nutritional qualities. It was a cross sectional study. 10 samples were included in this study from different areas. To examine the microbiological quality, we included two different types of fresh juices in this investigation. There was contamination in every sample. Growth in MacConkey agar media showed pink mucoid colony. And also metallic sheen in EMB media is been noticed which determines the samples contain fecal coliform. The result is in between 1- 100 MPN which indicates these drinks can cause intermediate risk. These beverages' water has both a physicochemical and a microbiological component. For many individuals, buying traditional drinks from street vendors is a crucial way to quench their thirst. However, it might not always be safe to drink and might include potentially dangerous germs. The goal of the current study was to evaluate the microbiological quality of ordinary drinks sold on the street, specifically the presence of fecal coliform bacteria. This study demonstrates that juice samples from street vendors in Dhaka North city are not complying with microbiological specifications of WHO. It also indicates that conventional drinks Mirpur area of Dhaka North City may not be safe for human consumption.

Thus, we are so attached to them that they have become part of our everyday life, recognizable in the culture and the society surrounding us. Coffee is one of those foodstuffs: a drink known as black gold, which had to travel a long way in space and time to be in our warm cups today. Coffee, however, is much more than an ordinary drink that satisfies our senses of smell and taste. It has eventually become a true socio-cultural phenomenon which has acquired specific characteristics and has shaped norms of behaviour in different societies. In this paper we will present the significance and the influence of coffee on the culture of contemporary societies in Italy and Serbia, as well as on the formation of significantly different customs and rituals associated with coffee drinking.

The Effects of Probiotic Yogurt Drink on Lipid Profile, CRP and Record Changes in Aerobic Athletes

Lipid profile and CRP are among the most important inflammatory markers prognosticating cardiovascular diseases. The present study aims to investigate effects of probiotic yogurt drink on lipid profile, CRP and records of normal-weight aerobic athletes. Thirty convenient athletes with similar BMIs (22± 2) were randomly put into two groups of ordinary and probiotic yogurt drinks. Their blood samples were taken before and after the experiment and the CRP and lipid profile were calculated through F and t (Satterwhite and paired) tests. Results revealed that both types of yogurt drink significantly increase HDL and decrease CRP; yet, the decreasing effects of CRP on athletes' records were significantly higher in probiotic group (-28 seconds) compared to the ordinary drink group (-2 seconds). Probiotic yogurt drink has a greater effect on decreasing serum CRP, increasing HDL and VO2MAX and improving athletes' records.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ijls.v9i4.12672

Beneficial Effect of Tea on Human Health

Tea, with its 5,000-year history, is one of the most popular beverages in the world. According to various estimates, over 4 billion people consume tea. This number has increased in recent years due to the widespread marketing of cold tea-based beverages. During the first millennium tea was primarily considered to be medicine rather than an ordinary drink. Over the last few years a large number of epidemiological studies have conclusively proven that tea is beneficial for people with cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, and cancers. Tea catechins are included in numerous dietary supplements and medicinal products. This review summarizes scientific information related to the effects of tea on human health which have been published in the last decade.

Voluntary dehydration in men working in heat.

An investigation was carried out on 77 steelworkers, divided into two groups, at their work places. Group I (30 subjects) drank ad lib. a special tea containing (17.1 mmol/l NaCl, 1.34 mmol/l KCl, 0.14 mmol/l Na2HPO4, and 0.57 mmol/l vitamin C). Group II (47 subjects) drank ad lib. ordinary drinks (water, mineral water, and soda-water). Determination of water balance was performed seven times in all within 3 weeks. In groups I and II sweat losses were 5.1 +/- 1.2 kg and 5.0 +/- 1.3 kg, and intakes were 4.1 +/- 1.1 kg and 3.4 +/- 1.1 kg, respectively. When the intake period of the drinks with salts was extended it was found that voluntary dehydration decreased and amounted to 10% of sweat rate on the last day of the study. The voluntary dehydration in group I was lower by 40%, the difference being highly significant in comparison with group II (P < 0.001). Data obtained from anamnesis and a questionnaire results showed smaller fatigue, higher work capability and better subjective feelings in group I. Five subjects who previously had complained of recurrent pain and muscle spasm experienced disappearance of these symptoms. The importance of intake of water containing salts in hot working conditions and their role in maintaining the water-electrolyte balance for normal physiological functions and subjective feelings were discussed.

TREATMENT OF HEAT RASH IN INFANTS IN 1746 ACCORDING TO DR. JEAN ASTRUC

Jean Astruc (1684-1766) is best known for his book on venereal diseases, De Morbis Veneris (Paris 1736); it may surprise some that he was also interested in pediatrics. The English edition of his lectures on children's diseases published in 1756 contains many suggestions for the treatment of illnesses of infancy and childhood. The following is a good example of early 18th century pediatric practice. Let the patient be lightly covered and his cloths frequently changed; let him also be kept in a cool place, and lye in clean linen in the afternoon, or during the heat; thus the tumours will vanish at last by the change of the season: but if they be too obstinate, order a decoction of mash-mallows and milk. If they degenerate into a sort of impetigo, order Galen's Cerat, which is made of wax and the oil of sweet-almonds, boiled to a proper consistence. You may add a little vinegar, of frog-spawn water, or boil these with wax, and anoint the tumours therewith; the patient must abstain from all salt and spiced meats, wine, etc., and let him take for his ordinary drink, pullet broth, or mineral waters; he may also drink of barley-water, or water mixed with lemon-juice, and use moderate exercise.1

An inquiry into the beverage of the ancient Caledonians, and other northern nations, at their feasts

The early inhabitants of the north-west part of what is now called Scotland, appear evidently not to have been far advanced in those arts which are commonly reckoned the improvements of polished life. A simple race, whose principal care was herds and flocks; their dainties were produced by hunting, and their ordinary drink must have been water, which was supplied by every fountain or stream, or milk, which was procured by little labour. But, as these could only serve to answer the pressing calls to thirst, it is evident that inventive luxury had made them acquainted with some fermented liquor, which was used at festivals and grand entertainments, that dissipated their cares, elevated their spirits, and is called by their poets, The Joy of the Shell. But what that liquor was, of what made, or how prepared, we are left almost entirely in the dark.
