Doctor fish is the name given to two species of fish: Garra rufa and Cyprinion macrostomus. Other nicknames include nibble fish, kangal fish, and doctorfishen; in non-medical contexts, Garra rufa is called the reddish log sucker. They live and breed in the outdoor pools of some Turkish spas, where they feed on the skin of patients with psoriasis. The fish are like combfishes in that they only consume the affected and dead areas of the skin, leaving the healthy skin to grow, with the outdoor location of the treatment bringing beneficial effects. The spas are not meant as a curative treatment option, only as a temporary alleviation of symptoms, and patients usually revisit the spas every few months. Some patients have experienced complete cure of psoriasis after repeated treatments, but due to the unpredictable nature of the disease, which is strongly influenced by endogenous factors, this may simply be regression toward the mean.
Garra rufa occurs in the river basins of the Northern and Central Middle East, mainly in Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. It is legally protected from commercial exploitation in Turkey due to concerns of overharvesting for export. Garra rufa can be kept in an aquarium at home; while not strictly a "beginner's fish", it is quite hardy. For treatment of skin diseases, aquarium specimens are not well suited as the skin-feeding behavior fully manifests only under conditions where the food supply is somewhat scarce and unpredictable.
In 2006, doctor fish spa resorts opened in Hakone, Japan, and in Umag, Croatia, where the fish are used to clean the bathers at the spa. There are also spas in resorts in China, Belgium, the Netherlands, South Korea, Singapore, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Hungary, Slovakia, India, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia], Philippines, Hong Kong, Bucharest (Romania), Barcelona (Spain) and France. In 2008, the first widely known doctor fish pedicure service was opened in the United States in Alexandria, Virginia, and later in Woodbridge, Virginia. In 2010 the first UK spa opened in Sheffield. They are used to help treat patients suffering from various skin disorders, including psoriasis and eczema, since the fish will eat and remove any dead skin.

Fish Foot Therapy

The major focus of fish foot therapy is skin exfoliation. The concept is that you soak your feet in a warm pool teemed with tiny hungry ‘doctor fishes’. Doctor fishes are scientifically known as Garra rufa and are natives of Turkish towns, Sivas and Kangal. The warm temperature of the water ensures that nutrients do not survive. This means the ravenous doctor fishes eats away dead and scaly skins softened by the warm water, revealing soft, pink, smooth and healthy skin underneath.

Fish Therapy for Eczema
Doctor fishes have long been associated with healing of psoriasis. It is suggested that when the doctor fishes nibbles on dry skin through their gummy mouth, the nibbling action triggers release of an enzyme known as Dithranol. This can help in treating the skin condition called eczema.
Besides eczema, fish therapy can help in treating other itchy skin conditions such as psoriasis, dermatitis, etc. So, if you want to be treated by the doctor fishes, be prepared to soak yourself in a warm pool for 8 hours a day up to 21 days before taking breakfast. During the twenty one day period, you may have to drink at least three glasses of water on an empty stomach. You may be abstained from taking medications during the entire tenure of treatment.

Durian, the King of Fruit and is a Sought-After Red Durian

The durian (pronounced /ˈdjʊriən/) is the fruit of several tree species belonging to the genus Durio and the Malvaceae family[1][3] (although some taxonomists place Durio in a distinct family, Durionaceae). Widely known and revered in southeast Asia as the "king of fruits", the durian is distinctive for its large size, unique odour, and formidable thorn-covered husk. The fruit can grow as large as 30 centimetres (12 in) long and 15 centimetres (6 in) in diameter, and it typically weighs one to three kilograms (2 to 7 lb). Its shape ranges from oblong to round, the colour of its husk green to brown, and its flesh pale yellow to red, depending on the species.
The edible flesh emits a distinctive odour, strong and penetrating even when the husk is intact. Some people regard the durian as fragrant; others find the aroma overpowering and offensive. The smell evokes reactions from deep appreciation to intense disgust, and has been described variously as almonds, rotten onions, turpentine and gym socks. The odour has led to the fruit's banishment from certain hotels and public transportation in southeast Asia.
The durian, native to Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia, has been known to the Western world for about 600 years. The 19th-century British naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace famously described its flesh as "a rich custard highly flavoured with almonds". The flesh can be consumed at various stages of ripeness, and it is used to flavour a wide variety of savoury and sweet edibles in Southeast Asian cuisines. The seeds can also be eaten when cooked.
There are 30 recognised Durio species, at least nine of which produce edible fruit. Durio zibethinus is the only species available in the international market: other species are sold in their local regions. There are hundreds of durian cultivars; many consumers express preferences for specific cultivars, which fetch higher prices in the market.

RED DURIAN

Red Durian is an exotic durian fruit red as blood. Eating durian is not drunk because the alcohol content is relatively low. Red Durian (Durio graveolens) is widely available in Kutai district, living in forests, fields and the edge of the Mahakam river.
Red Durian this by the Dayak Kenyah called durian leaves. Perhaps due to the leaf width almost as wide as the palm of an adult hand. This plant likes the soil type silt (alluvial) to place its growth, with a height of 50-800 m above sea level.
Durian Durio graveolens Latin name has a characteristic red-colored flesh. Unlike the durian in general, smaller seeds and red durian flesh were thicker and sweeter. Alcohol levels were lower and more stinging fruit aroma. For size, the fruit is of medium size or slightly smaller than the other durian. Fruit skin color is no different from other durian fruit that is yellow. To monitor this way of life just like any other durian fruit that is grown in the tropics at an altitude of approximately 50 to 800 meters above sea level.

Fishing and Health

Fishing is the activity of trying to catch fish. Fish are normally caught in the wild. Techniques for catching fish include hand gathering, spearing, netting, angling and trapping.
The term fishing may be applied to catching other aquatic animals such as molluscs, cephalopods, crustaceans, and echinoderms. The term is not normally applied to catching aquatic mammals, such as whales, where the term whaling is more appropriate, or to farmed fish.
According to FAO statistics, the total number of commercial fishermen and fish farmers is estimated to be 38 million. Fisheries and aquaculture provide direct and indirect employment to over 500 million people. In 2005, the worldwide per capita consumption of fish captured from wild fisheries was 14.4 kilograms, with an additional 7.4 kilograms harvested from fish farms. In addition to providing food, modern fishing is also a recreational pastime.

Recreational fishing
Recreational and sport fishing describe fishing primarily for pleasure or competition. Recreational fishing has conventions, rules, licensing restrictions and laws that limit the way in which fish may be caught; typically, these prohibit the use of nets and the catching of fish with hooks not in the mouth. The most common form of recreational fishing is done with a rod, reel, line, hooks and any one of a wide range of baits or lures such as artificial flies. The practice of catching or attempting to catch fish with a hook is generally known as angling. In angling, it is sometimes expected or required that fish be returned to the water (catch and release). Recreational or sport fishermen may log their catches or participate in fishing competitions.
Big-game fishing describes fishing from boats to catch large open-water species such as tuna, sharks and marlin. Sport fishing (sometimes game fishing) describes recreational fishing where the primary reward is the challenge of finding and catching the fish rather than the culinary or financial value of the fish's flesh. Fish sought after include marlin, tuna, tarpon, sailfish, shark and mackerel although the list is endless.

The Health Benefits of Fishing
There are many reasons that people fish. Some fish for pleasure, some fish for food, and some fish to make a living.Of all the possible reasons for fishing, fishing for pleasure is probably the most enjoyable because
people do it as a matter of personal choice. There is no pressure in pleasure fishing. There are no adverse consequences for not catching fish. Maybe a small measure of disappointment, but that's it. In addition to the pleasure of actually catching fish, there are many other benefits. Most of these are good for one's physical health as well as one's mental health.

Physically, fishing is not all that demanding. It doesn't take a lot of strength and stamina to fish. However, fishing does incorporate the exercising of the lungs, heart and various muscle groups. After all, one does have to get to a place from which they can fish. That generally includes walking, possibly some minor climbing, and carrying one's gear to the favorite fishing spot. These are all physical activities which burn calories and exercise various muscle groups, all of which is good for one's health. The various activities involved in readying oneself for fishing are also good exercise for the muscles of the fingers, hands, wrists and forearms. Assembling a reel to one's rod, attaching hooks, sinkers, bobbin's and even the bait are all activities which work these muscles to some degree. Then, there is the casting of the bait into the water. This activity exercises the muscles of the upper arm, shoulder and back. One probably won't get a good cardio workout from fishing, but one will get enough exercise to maintain a degree of dexterity and maybe some muscle tone.
Fishing is also good for the lungs and skin. After all, fishing is mostly an outdoor sport. Being outdoors gives one an opportunity to get plenty of fresh air into one's lungs. Fresh air is healthy air. It contains
plenty of oxygen which is fundamental to a healthier physical and mental state. Sunshine is another health benefit derived from fishing. Although some people like fishing enough to brave inclement weather, most prefer a nice sunny day to fish. Sunshine, in moderation, is good for one's health. It produces a number of beneficial attributes for maintaining a healthy body and appearance.

Mentally, fishing requires very little effort. Attach some form of bait to a hook, cast it into the water, and wait for the fish to bite. That doesn't sound like it requires the use of many brain cells, does it? Certainly not, and that is the biggest health benefit of all. Because fishing doesn't require a huge amount of brain power, all those brain cells get to kick back and relax for a while. Fishing allows one to rest and relax one's mind. No pressure, no deadlines, nobody wanting this or that, no noisy machines or people; just fresh air, sunshine and plenty of rest and relaxation. A brain vacation! Of course, one needn't lapse into a comatose state while fishing. It is sufficient to just clear one's mind and wonder or daydream. All that's lacking is a couple of sandwiches, a thermos of coffee or a jug of iced tea, and maybe a few other snacks to keep one's appetite in check. Fresh air, sunshine and exercise work on one's appetite, so it is always a good idea to take some appetite appeasing food on any fishing trip.

In conclusion, fishing is a great recipe for a healthier body and mind. Take a little exercise, mix it with sunshine and fresh air, and add a few snacks and something to wash them down with, then do it frequently and enjoy better health. And there is one more benefit. With a little luck, one may catch a fish for dinner, and everyone knows that eating fish is very healthy.

Fishing for health - eliminating isolation
The Department of Health describes social isolation and exclusion, as a ‘breeding ground for poor heath.’ In Charleville a group of health professionals is working to overcome that.

Jill Carroll was part of a team who instigated the Charleville District Health Service Fishing Club. The project helps socially isolated people to participate in group activities, by providing a small group setting - culturally appropriate to the area.

Participants chose fishing as their group activity, and the project hasn’t faltered.
“It was what they wanted to do. It was purely client driven.”

Jill says mainstream activities only reach those who are socially competent and self-motivated. “It’s an opportunity for those who don’t ‘fit’ in general social situations to gain a social comfort zone.

“Fishing was the perfect choice. It was something they had been involved in during the days when they used to be included in society; something they had in common.”

She said Club members’ enthusiasm was encouraging, and the catches were typically ‘big!’

“The social implications of the project have been great. The fishing trips are giving these people a more positive outlook on life, and there’s been a decrease in doctor and hospital admissions.”

And despite limited health funding, Jill said the fishing group was sustainable. “If it’s a small project, it works. A lot of programs find it difficult getting funding. We’re sustainable because it doesn’t cost much for us to keep going.”

Local indigenous women elders will be the next group to take to the river, and plans are in the making to expand the project to include mental health and disability patients.
