Penyakit YANG Bisa Diketahui Dari Bau Badan: Kenali Sejari Awal Sebelum Terlambat!
YOGYAKARTA - Body odor is very often associated with a person's lack of hygiene, but this can in fact be an early sign of disease because research shows certain diseases have their own odor traces. Want to know what kind of disease can be known from body odor?
The smell, as broadcast by Medical Daily on May 11, occurs when germs mix with sweat and this is also influenced by various factors such as hormones, diet, certain medicines and the underlying health conditions.
Launching from ANTARA, other aspects that affect body odor are moisture, genetics, overweight, and exercise. Researchers also find hormonal changes such as menstruation and ovulation can cause a change in body odor.
Then, how does a disease affect the smell of the body? For experts, when a person is exposed to a disease, this affects the way his body works.
Changes in different biochemical processes can lead to the production of small molecules that are volatile in the body, transported by blood throughout the body. The body after that releases it through breath, urine, and sweat.
"According to scientific literature, there is evidence that the scent may have indicators for lung cancer, breast cancer, diabetes, melanoma and many more," said biomedical researcher at Ben-Gurion Universitys Kiryat Bergman Campus in Beer-Sheva, Israel, Yehuda Zeiri.
1. Preeclampsia
This is a hypertension disorder caused throughout pregnancy. Complications generally start after 20 weeks of pregnancy in women who do not have blood pressure problems. This situation increases protein levels in urine which indicate kidney damage and signs of damage to other organs.
If not overcome, preeclampsia can cause complications for pregnant women and children who are not yet born and can even have a severe impact.
2. Diabetes
Research shows that patients with diabetes have the smell of fruit, caused by ketoacidosis due to inadequate insulin or inefficient in the body. This fatal condition causes the body to burn fat for fuel.
3. Heart Failure
When the patient's heart stops functioning or slows down, some toxins and contaminants accumulate in urine, sweat, and breath. The smell of raw fish is related to liver failure.
4. Lung Cancer
Lung cancer occurs when cells in the lungs grow unnaturally. Research shows lung cancer can be detected at the earliest stage using only a simple breath test called Na-Nose.
Tech developers hope to expand their use to find out early signs of other serious diseases such as Parkinson's, kidney disease, liver disease, Alzheimer's, and multiple sclerosis (MS).
5. Kidney failure
Kidney failure is a serious health condition that occurs when one or both kidneys stop working. This can be caused by medical conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension.
Researchers have found that in-depth ammonia indicates kidney failure. Based on this discovery, scientists from the University of Illinois have developed a single-use feature that could tell the breaths of kidney failure.
"In clinical regulation, doctors use large instruments, basically the size of a large table, to find out and analyze this compound. We want to give patients a low-cost sensor chip so they can wear it," said Ying Diao, the team leader who developed the technology.
