Heart Disease is a Sulfate Deficiency Problem | News in Nutrition. Heart Disease is a Sulfate Deficiency Problem References: Theor Biol Med Mod, Half of us, men and women, die of this scourge. I have spent a career battling heart disease in Emergency Medicine and now Functional Medicine. And I’m still puzzled why it happens. Stephanie Senneff from MIT, suggests a different consideration that fits all the present criteria better than the cholesterol hypothesis. It starts with the “structure” of water. This is where it gets really interesting. Where does heart disease come in? What is the takeaway? To test this hypothesis, one would presume you could fix heart disease if you eased the lack of sulfated compounds. WWW:What will work for me.

Pop Quiz When you push two magnets against each other, and they push back against each other, you create the same effect as red cells lined with cholesterol sulfate have in capillaries.

Does high dose vitamin D supplementation enhance cognition?: A randomized trial in healthy adults. - New research suggests it is possible to slow or even reverse aging, at least in mice, by undoing changes in gene activity—the same kinds of changes that are caused by decades of life in humans.

By tweaking genes that turn adult cells back into embryoniclike ones, researchers at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies reversed the aging of mouse and human cells in vitro, extended the life of a mouse with an accelerated-aging condition and successfully promoted recovery from an injury in a middle-aged mouse, according to a study published Thursday in Cell. The study adds weight to the scientific argument that aging is largely a process of so-called epigenetic changes, alterations that make genes more active or less so. Over the course of life cell-activity regulators get added to or removed from genes. In humans those changes can be caused by smoking, pollution or other environmental factors—which dial the genes’ activities up or down.

The Salk study was conducted on middle-aged mice. News Release. Marijuana's Active Ingredient Shown to Inhibit Primary Marker of Alzheimer's Disease Discovery Could Lead to More Effective Treatments LA JOLLA, CA, August 9, 2006 - Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute have found that the active ingredient in marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, inhibits the formation of amyloid plaque, the primary pathological marker for Alzheimer's disease.

In fact, the study said, THC is "a considerably superior inhibitor of [amyloid plaque] aggregation" to several currently approved drugs for treating the disease. The study was published online August 9 in the journal Molecular Pharmaceutics, a publication of the American Chemical Society. According to the new Scripps Research study, which used both computer modeling and biochemical assays, THC inhibits the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE), which acts as a "molecular chaperone" to accelerate the formation of amyloid plaque in the brains of Alzheimer victims. About The Scripps Research Institute. News Release. Genetically engineered algae kills 90% of cancer cells without harming healthy ones. Algae has been genetically engineered to kill cancer cells without harming healthy cells. The algae nanoparticles, created by scientists in Australia, were found to kill 90% of cancer cells in cultured human cells.

The algae was also successful at killing cancer in mice with tumours. Nico Voelcker, from the University of South Australia, worked with researchers from Dresden in Germany to engineer diatom algae and loaded it with chemotherapeutic drugs. Publishing their study in the journal Nature Communications, the team also found that when they injected the nanoparticles into mice, tumours regressed. Diatom algae is a type of tiny, unicellular, photosynthesising algae. Researchers genetically engineered the algae to produce an antibody-binding protein on the surface of their shells.

"To minimise the off-target toxicity, the drugs can be hidden inside the antibody-coated nanoparticles. Groundbreaking Research: Cannabis Treats ADHD Better Than Adderall. The medical use of marijuana is no secret. It can be used to treat a number of ailments, chronic and short term. According to a groundbreaking new medical study of 30 patients with ADHD, all 30 reported improved concentration and sleep as well as reduced impulsivity after using medicinal cannabis. These 30 patients all reported having limited success with conventional treatments like Ritalin and Adderall. 22 of the 30 patients opted to forgo their previously prescribed medications and use marijuana to manage their symptoms instead.

It’s a small sample group, yet it’s an incredibly positive development. “Cannabis appears to treat ADD and ADHD by increasing the availability of dopamine,” said Dr. David Bearman, a cannabinoidologist. Basically, cannabinoids in marijuana might correct dopamine shortages in the brain that’s seen with people who have ADHD. Source. Cat Jump Fail with Music: Sail by AWOLNATION. Medical Marijuana Achieves ‘Complete Remission’ Of Crohn's Disease; Drug Improves Appetite And Sleep Function, With No Side Effects. Crohn's disease, one of several inflammatory bowel diseases, achieved "complete remission" in nearly half the subjects of one study that were exposed to smoking medical marijuana on a regular basis.

Published in the journal Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, the study examined the effects of consistent marijuana use on Crohn's patients who suffered from severe cases of the disease. The results of the 21-subject study point toward the drug's anti-inflammatory properties as being responsible for quieting symptoms in many patients, and even reaching total remission in others. The Disease: Causes, Symptoms, And Treatments Often mischaracterized as an autoimmune disease, Crohn's disease is in fact an immune deficiency state. There is no cure for Crohn's; however, various methods are aimed at limiting flare ups and keeping the disease in remission. The Study And Its Findings Twenty-one people with severe, intractable Crohn's comprised the study. Source: Naftali T, Lihi BL, Iris D.

Mixed Findings on Pot's Effect on the Developing Brain. WEDNESDAY, Aug. 26, 2015 (HealthDay News) -- Marijuana's potential effect on brain structure remains a subject of intense scientific scrutiny, but mixed results have emerged from two of the latest studies on the topic. Researchers in one study have concluded that marijuana use likely does not directly affect the size of the amygdala, a brain site linked with emotion, emotional behavior and motivation. "We found that while cannabis users had lower amygdala volumes than nonusers, that difference appears to be linked to other predisposing factors," said senior author Arpana Agrawal, an associate professor of psychiatry at Washington University School of Medicine in St.

Louis. But researchers in the other study found that marijuana use in the teenage years could increase kids' risk for developing schizophrenia if they carry a high genetic risk for the mental illness. Both studies were published Aug. 26 in JAMA Psychiatry. Some environmental factor could also be at play, she added. Six Reasons Why Exercising Is Better When You Consume Marijuana. (image via vanderbuilt.edu) I received the following article from Anthony Franciosi, founder of The Honest Marijuana Company out of Colorado, and felt it was worth passing along. Exercising is important, and I think that cannabis is also important. Below are six reasons to combine the two: The words “marijuana” and “exercise” may not go together upon first glance, but they actually go hand in hand. Listen up. Did you know that weed is actually the best thing you can do for your workout routine? Sure, we know pot has the power to relieve pain and stress, but did you know it can also improve focus, increase metabolism, and make you BETTER at your favorite sports?

Let’s look at the facts. Some of the most incredible athletes are actually pot smokers. Don’t believe me? I mean, this may sound crazy, but think about it. If that’s not reason enough to introduce pot into your fitness regime, I’m really not sure what is. Weed raises your metabolism. Pot smokers are just thinner. As Wellspring notes: How to Make the Best of Stressful Times: 7 Mindful Tips | The Miracle Forest: The Zen Smile of Mindfulness. We've finally been able to carry out our plan, my husband and I, to move into a more natural area. We've been living in the city center all our lives, and we couldn't be more excited to live next to a nature reserve where the forest literally starts in our backyard.

Living in the city has taught us many important lessons though. We weren't sure we'll ever be able to move to a place where we could connect with nature more, so we made our peace in the city. We were happy among the noise. Because happiness and peace, as I always say, does not depend on our external conditions--it's solely an internal thing. Anyhow, these past few weeks have been a bit stressful for me, so I used this wonderful opportunity to gather a list for all of you based on what I've noticed on myself during my own stressful time. These are a couple of tips that can encourage you to go on with a smile, even in stressful situations. 1. "I surrender to your will. " 2. Such a relief, to empty the mind. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Injectable cryogel-based whole-cell cancer vaccines: A new minimally invasive vaccine that combines cancer cells and immune-enhancing factors offers a promising strategy against patient-specific cancer cells -- ScienceDaily. New research led by Wyss Core Faculty member David Mooney, Ph.D., in collaboration with researchers at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute could potentially yield a new platform for cancer vaccines. Leveraging a biologically inspired sponge-like gel called "cryogel" as an injectable biomaterial, the vaccine delivers patient-specific tumor cells together with immune-stimulating biomolecules to enhance the body's attack againstcancer. The approach, a so-called "injectable cryogel whole-cell cancer vaccine," is reported online in Nature Communications on August 12. Mooney, who leads a Wyss Institute team developing a broad suite of novel cancer vaccines and immunotherapies, is also the Robert P.

Cryogels are a type of hydrogel made up of cross-linked hydrophilic polymer chains that can hold up to 99 percent water. The Man Who Discovered Cancer Said This (And Wrote a Book On Curing It) Dr. Otto Warburg was the man who discovered the cause of cancer, he was awarded the nobel prize in 1931 for his work. Initially it was my understanding that he discovered cancer but he actually discovered the cause which in my opinion is even more valuable than discovering cancer.

Many people have recognized a problem, a disease, a tumorous lump growing on someone and labeling it a disease. The cause of that disease is even more important and relevant than the disease itself if you want to do something about it. He’s one of the most relevant figures in our history when it comes to cancer, what causes it and how to really treat it. His discovery led him to certain conclusions. Oddly enough Dr. So what was his thoughts on cancer? His first belief was that cancer itself cannot exist in an alkaline environment. Beyond this Dr.

As the name suggests, they are similar to the chemicals found in marijuana (Cannabis sativa) and its active ingredient, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). “Chronic stress is one of the major causes of depression,” Haj-Dahmane says. “Using compounds derived from cannabis — marijuana — to restore normal endocannabinoid function could potentially help stabilize moods and ease depression.” Recommended: See Also: [Above videos do not mention Cannabis.

Dr. Allan Frankel says, “As a short-term life-prolonging medicine and a long-term therapy for chronic conditions, medical cannabis is a miracle drug that is endorsed by countless doctors and nurses, as well as the patients whose lives are dramatically improved by its use.” Marijuana as a medicine is a strong, safe, easy to use and extremely inexpensive if you grow it yourself as a weed in the backyard or living room. The pharmaceutical industry has nothing pharmacologically equal to cannabinoids. Marijuana is lipophilic, which means that it can be dissolved into a fat-soluble substance and then readily enters cell membranes.

In other words, it can be effective when applied topically on the skin. Marijuana can be used transdermally to relieve pain and pretty much singlehandedly resolve just about any condition on the skin with relative ease. Medical marijuana can be applied as a balm, lotion, ointment or rubbing alcohol solution. Dr. Hemp Salves & Oils Offer Potent Solutions Dr. Posted by: An Open Letter to Dr. Laura Schlesinger. Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God’s Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination… end of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God’s Laws and how to follow them.

Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighbouring nations. I know you have studied these things extensively and thus enjoy considerable expertise in such matters, so I am confident you can help. Thank you again for reminding us that God’s word is eternal and unchanging. Your adoring fan, James M.

AG News | Cannabis Found To Aid in Healing Broken Bones. Medical marijuana has been popping up in the news a lot lately, as new studies continue to find evidence that cannabis has a wide variety of medical applications. The latest discovery: Cannabis can be used to heal fractures and rebuild bones.

Researchers at Tel Aviv University and Hebrew University, publishing their findings in the Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, have conducted a study to discover how the non-psychotropic components of cannabis can be applied outside of cancer, Parkinson’s, and MS treatment. Despite the surmounting evidence in favor of medical marijuana, the drug still remains Schedule 1, on par with drugs like heroine and LSD, constituting that it has no known medical application.

How it works Researchers under Dr. Gabet and Bab’s team are building off of studies they have conducted in the past, where they discovered that the cannabinoid receptors within our bodies both stimulate bone formation and prevent bone loss.
