Being overweight increases your risk for gout. If you are overweight, a diet that is low in fat may help you lose weight. But avoid fasting or very low-calorie diets. Very low-calorie diets increase the amount of uric acid produced by the body and may bring on a gout attack.
How the diaphragm works. When we breathe in, the diaphragm moves downward and compresses the stomach and intestines to make space for the air that comes in (this is why itâs hard to breathe on a full stomach, thereâs no space for the air).
In this way the each side of the diaphragm affects the corresponding lung (left or right). When the diaphragm contracts, it increases the negative pressure around the lungs in the pleural cavity. The elastic lungs are forced to expand and air is drawn in â inspiration.When the diaphragm relaxes, it returns to its dome-shaped state thereby reducing the negative pressure.ome diseases that affect the muscles of the body may also involve the diaphragm. These conditions are not specific for the diaphragm and there may be other areas affected with muscle weakness or even paralysis.
