Sepsis merupakan keadaan yang serius tetapi jarang menular karena disebabkan oleh bakteri. Hal ini terjadi apabila bakteri (yang dapat berasal dari paru, usus, traktus urinarius) mengeluarkan toksin yang menyebabkan system imun tubuh melawan organ dan jaringan tubuh sendiri.(1)
Sepsis dapat menimbulkan kondisi yang menakutkan karena jika tidak teratasi dapat menimbulkan komplikasi yang serius yang dapat merusak ginjal, paru, otak dan pendengaran. Tetapi dengan mempelajari dan mengenali tanda-tanda sepsis maka kondisi buruk tersebut dapat teratasi dan anak dapat sembuh sempurna.(1)

Attack on Obama riles Beck's advertisers
By DAVID BAUDER
Glenn Beck returns to Fox News Channel on Monday after a vacation with fewer companies willing to advertise on his show than when he left, part of the fallout from calling President Barack Obama a racist.
A total of 33 Fox advertisers, including Wal-Mart Stores Inc., CVS Caremark, Clorox and Sprint, directed that their commercials not air on Beck's show, according to the companies and ColorofChange.org, a group that promotes political action among blacks and launched a campaign to get advertisers to abandon him. That's more than a dozen more than were identified a week ago.

Not really a news-y piece, but I thought it was worth sharing. This is yet another reason why I'll never get a Brazilian.

Always work with your doctor before taking any medication even if it is OTC (over the counter) medication to ensure that it is safe for you to take and it will not interfere with any other medications that you might be taking. Also realize that it will take on average about 5 days for your body to actually see some improvement from supplements and depending on the dosage, you might have to go through speciality stores to where they can pack more punch in a pill verses what you can get at the drug store.
