Health is the treasure that can not be bought for any money. In most of cases a human being is borne healthy. In further life the components of health are maintained and formed by the particles of the water we drink, the air we inspire, the meal we eat, the clothes we wear and the household environment, conditions of working and recreational places, habits and etc. Certainly the condition of environmental ecology, namely the ecology of micro-district and inhabited locality in general, is a matter of great importance.

The health is divided into following components: physical, mental and spiritual. Failure in each of them is considered an illness. Health is an integral part of our existence. Indeed it is not said in vain that “a healthy beggar is happier than a bedridden king”. Only a man of solid health can rise to eminence in the life which he is striving for. Unfortunately nowadays not even all infants are absolutely healthy. What is it connected with? How to maintain and strengthen your health for long and happy life without any diseases? These and many other questions connected with the true strengthening of health agitate every single person.

Meanwhile at the beginning of 20th century the eminent local and foreign doctors have stated that people may prevent many cruel diseases by ordinary observance of hygiene requirements. This statement may evoke smile or perplex some people as they believe that they carefully practice proper hygiene: they wash up and bathe in houses and apartments with amenities. But the results, obtained in researches of scientists from nearly every country, evidence that the household life of modern people is more polluted than life of our ancestors. As for environment it is more polluted with industrial and domestic wastes compared to last centuries. Each of us can make own contribution into enhancement of environment if we do not litter and expectorate in the entrances of buildings, yards, streets and etc. For the rest the environmental condition depends on operation of specialized services. But the condition of our household and working environment (micro-ecology) directly depends on each of us as we can and should keep absolutely clean our houses, apartments, office premises and things inside. As per the information of the Institute of Human Ecology under the Academy of Medical Sciences of the Russian Federation, there are about 150 types of chemical effluxion discharged in an ordinary apartment: lacquer varnish and paint, glue of furniture and chipboard, household cleaning products and anthropotoxins (wastes products of human being and domestic animals). The specialists believe that the effects of such chemical mixture to human body are equal to a state of chronic intoxication of drug addicts. Being in the premises with high content of chemical substances in air has a negative impact on health and working capability. Most of chemical substances (phenols, formaldehydes, hydrocarbons and etc.) are the strongest carcinogens. A man (and domestic animals too) discharges waste products like anthropotoxins through the skin and lungs. It becomes obvious when a severely ill man is in the apartment. In most of cities due to climate peculiarities there is no possibility to air premises frequently and properly in order to minimize the level of air pollution. With breathing the air pollutants get into our lungs and remain there. We unconsciously purify the air with our lungs by inspiring this cocktail which causes the symptoms of rapid fatigability, health deterioration, headache, weakening of body defenses. The ideal conditions are created by ventilation and air conditioning systems: optimal humidity and temperature promote rapid growth and generation of bacteria in these systems. Upon switching these systems on after a long down time the huge mass of bacteria together with dust and air gets into the premises and may cause infectious diseases (including legionellosis) to the people inside.

The food has a direct and ongoing influence on physical, mental and spiritual health and behaviour of people due to impact on function of brain and body in general. Certainly the natural products are more preferable as they do not contain any supplements including colorants, artificial flavors and preservation agents. The sleep quality has an effect on health and sleep itself directly depends on meal. It is necessary to relax not only the body but also brains in order to have a quick sleeping process and sound sleep too. The purity of food products has an impact on health too. Just recently it has been considered that our stomach is sterile as due to hydrochloric acid inside the bacteria can not live in the stomach. But then it was established that gastritis and peptic ulcer disease are caused by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori. The recent researches of foreign scientists have shown that the human stomach is home for 128 different kinds of bacteria. So the question is: what do these bacteria come from? The answer is obvious: they come from dirty ready-to-eat and unpacked food which is sold frequently along the roads, kiosks without any washstand and etc.

If you set your mind on searching the people with absolutely clean and beautiful skin of face and open parts of the body in your environment, you will hardly meet such people owing to the fact that at present most of people has mite-affected skin. Even the people apart from the medicine are aware of the medical statement that Demodex mite exists in every human skin. Regarding the dermatophagoid mites the scientists of nearly every country write about their mass presence in the household dust, bedding, clothes and hairs of people, but no one says that they can affect the human body itself while one and half century ago the discoverers of mite informed about its capability to penetrate deep into the skin and to cause so-called chorioptic or dermatophagoid scabies. The Japanese researchers have found out by chance this mite deep in atheromatous plague of human aorta. According to the method developed by us it is possible to see this mite nesting in prenatal hairs of skin of almost everyone. It was calculated that 28 grams of household dust may contain up to 42 000 mites which waste products are the strongest allergens among those known as of today. 70% of allergic diseases of respiratory tract are caused by these substances.

During the millenniums our home and bed is the natural environment for small mites. Unfortunately such a long coexistence has already developed into their parasitizing on and inside the human body. It is a regular process. But this fact of the clinical medicine is still neglected. At present a bed, terry carpet, places of dust collection and the body of the affected man are the primary places of inhabitation and generation of mites. Our long-term observations show that dermatophagoids cause various changes in skin, organs and tissues of the affected man. So the question arises: is it possible to get rid of the mites affected the skin by practicing the proper hygiene? The answer to this question is rather positive: the proper observance of hygiene requirements by children of 5-6 years old can provide a full clearance of skin from parasites. The elder people can not clean fully their skin from mites without special treatment but only with practicing the hygiene as their skin glands have rather a complicated structure.

Keeping the body, clothes, housewares and household environment clean directly depends on willingness and desire of each of us. What observance of hygiene requirements is the proper one? Many patients say that they take shower every day. But while examining their skin the competent specialist obviously sees that they just pour water on their bodies, in a literal sense, but do not wash up properly. The proper one is the washing with soap and wash-cloth. At that the washing with soap and wash-cloth should be practiced a few times during one session. It is obligatory to wash the scalp, face and other parts. The towel, which we are going to wipe with, should be ironed as well as the clothes to wear after the washing. Regarding the facial skin it should washed up twice in a day (in the morning and evening) with soap and properly. To avoid washing up the face with soap as widely recommended by cosmetologists is wrong.

Remember: a healthy facial skin with such care will be well-preserved and healthy skin (of any part of the body) will never become dry or oily!

Due to everyday proper washing the skin of the scalp will not be problematic and hairs will be thick and shiny and never come out. It is worth to add that bedding are to be daily and properly cleaned through airing and shaking up outdoors or in the house with the help of special vacuum cleaner which fully suck up dust, fungi, mites from carpets, bedding, outer garments and upholstered furniture. The household items should be made of the material (leather-like material or leather) which does not absorb dust. The synthetic floor covering is not acceptable for housing and office premises due to its scuffing which is favourable for our invisible cohabiters. The house should not be extremely furnished which is convenient for proper cleaning of the premises. The cosmetic renovation of housing and office premises with general cleaning of inside things should be carried out in time manner. Only under such conditions we may say that we practice the proper hygiene. This is the only way for us to get rid of intruders which we pick up with our hands, clothes and belongings while being outside.

Ozone-rich air, natural solar exposure (therefore do not curtain windows), mechanical removal are miticidal. Moreover the clothes and bed-linen should be ironed from both sides thoroughly and regularly. It is essential that each of family members without any exception is to practice the proper personal hygiene. I promise you that in such family there will not be any allergic individual! Is it trivial and fabulous? Many examples can be given. For example, a top-ranking family man washes up once in two months and almost under pressure of his home-folk. Actually his wife saves him by providing clean clothes. He smells very specifically and tries to suppress this smell with perfumes. But the doctors have to rack their brains to identify the reason of allergy which affected his child. With interacting with his child any of us can get the allergic matter which every representative is capable to generate 5 000 000 descendents. So you may consider how important the personal hygiene, timely and proper cleaning of all usage items are.

Only the proper hygiene is able to provide the real health! Only by practicing the proper hygiene our patients fully recover from photodermatosis, comedones, baldness, discoid lupus erythematosus, dermatitis, food allergy, drug allergy and kiss-type allergy, rosacea, bottle nose, eczema, neurodermatitis, psoriasis, Para psoriasis, prurigo, furunculosis, demodicosis, nasal allergy, celloid, erythroderma, incipience of exanthematous lupus erythematosus, incipience of vitiligo, incipience of scleroderma, precancerous skin diseases, skin cancer, deep-rooted recurrent lurticaria and many other diseases. If you suffer from any of the above mentioned diseases and wish to recover in full and for this purpose you are ready to observe all prescribed recommendations then welcome to our clinic!
