Discovered: Indian spice reduces Alzheimer's symptoms by 30% Despite millions spent on drug research and development, one of the more promising treatments for Alzheimer's disease (a progressive brain disorder that affects more than 5 million Americans) is found in a substance widely known for its ability to spice (and color) food.

The compound curcumin, only found in turmeric, is a widely used spice found in Indian food, and is also popular in the cuisines of other South Asian countries like Nepal, Iran and Thailand. The bright yellow spice is familiar to fans of curry dishes, but it has been used in other preparations as well. For centuries, it has been used in Asian medicine. Like other brightly colored foods (think blueberries, pomegranates and tomatoes), it is the compound that gives turmeric its color that makes it a powerful antioxidant — in this case, curcumin. And like the lycopene in tomatoes and the beta-carotene in carrots, bright orange-yellow curcumin has some seriously amazing health benefits. More research is needed.

Árið 2009 var farið að fjalla nokkuð um siðblindu, aðallega í bloggum en svolítið í fjölmiðlum einnig. Í júlí 2009 skrifaði ég pistilinn Snákar í jakkafötum með testosteróneitrun og benti þar á blaðagrein eftir Kristján G.

Although this therapy is not curative, it nevertheless reduced the autistic disorders' severity in three-quarters of the children. The researchers have filed a request for authorisation to perform a multi-centre European clinical trial in order to determine more precisely the population concerned by this therapy. Details of this work have been published in the Translational Psychiatry review dated 11 December 2012. Contribution made by the fundamental research on neuronal chloride Previous work carried out by the team of researchers led by Yehezkel Ben-Ari in INSERM unit 901, the Institut de Neurobiologie de la M-diterran-e (INMED) in Marseille, on intracellular chloride concentrations have demonstrated that they are abnormally high in immature neurons or neurons previously affected by epileptic seizures or other cerebral lesions. From fundamental research to clinical research Indirect experimental data suggest that the inhibitory transmitter GABA's action is modified in autism.

Dr. Reversal of Osteoarthritis by Nutritional Intervention. ACA Journal of Chiropractic/November 1990 ~ FULL TEXT Reprinted with permission. Ó 1990, all rights reserved. Luke R. Bucci, Ph.D. Research from rheumatology and orthopedic clinics from Europe on the ability to reverse osteoarthritis has been accumulating for the last 25 years. Based on these results, this article will describe a nutritional program, that in conjunction with standard therapies used for osteoarthritis, can actually reverse the course of osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is a collection of ill-defined joint diseases with cartilage degeneration being a central feature. [1-3] Usually, deficient cartilage repair, joint bone remodeling, and later, synovial inflammatory processes promote extensive de-generation and erosion. [1-3] Osteoarthritis has the highest morbidity (incidence) of all diseases, with almost universal occurrence after 50 years of age, although not all cases are severe.

Low Vitamin K Status Associated with Osteoarthritis. Low Vitamin K Status Associated with Osteoarthritis What problem was studied? Poor intake of vitamin K, a fat-soluble vitamin present in leafy, green vegetables and some vegetable oils, is a common problem with potentially negative effects on a number of body systems and functions, including joint health. Insufficient vitamin K can result in abnormal cartilage and bone mineralization and thus possibly the formation of osteophytes (“bone spurs”) that are seen in osteoarthritis (OA). Arthritis Foundation postdoctoral fellow Tuhina Neogi, MD, and colleagues undertook a study to determine if poor vitamin K status is associated with the features of OA seen on X-ray. What was done in the study? The investigators calculated the prevalence of OA, bone spurs and joint-space narrowing (an indication of cartilage destruction) in the participants’ joints in each of four ranges of blood phylloquinone levels.

Harp seal. Description[edit] Whitecoated pup Physiology[edit] Thermoregulation[edit] Harp seals combine anatomical and behavioral approaches to managing their body temperatures, instead of elevating their metabolic rate and energy requirements.[2] A thick coat of blubber insulates its body and provides energy when food is scarce or during fasting. Blubber also streamlines its body for more efficient swimming. Senses[edit] Vision is its critical sense. Life history[edit] Harp seals prefer to swim in the ocean, spending relatively little time on land.[3] These are extremely social animals and they can be very noisy, as well.

On the ice, pups call their mothers by "bawling" and "mumble" while playing with others. Reproduction[edit] Harp seal mother nursing pup Females mature sexually at age five to six. Newborn pups weigh around 11 kilograms (24 lb) and are 80–85 centimetres (31–33 in) long. The stranded pup cries at first, and then becomes sedentary to conserve body fat. Migration and vagrancy[edit] Seal nutrtitional composition. Hovedside - Polargodt. Polarolje 0,5 L - Polargodt. Forskning på selolje og selkjøtt – resultater så langt. I et forskningssamarbeid mellom Nasjonalt institutt for ernærings- og sjømatforskning (NIFES) og Haukeland Universitetssjukehus (HUS) ser selolje ut til å ha en lindrende effekt på ledd og muskelsmerter hos pasienter med kroniske betennelsestilstander som inflammatorisk tarmsykdom. Resultatene så langt er lovende, men det trengs større kontrollerte studier for å få en endelig avklaring og beskrivelse av effekten av selolje på leddsmerter.

Selolje-studiene I en pilotstudie publisert i 2002 (Arslan et al. 2002) ble 10 pasienter med inflammatorisk tarmsykdom (IBD, kronisk tarmbetennelse, pasienter med ulcerøs kolitt og Crohns sykdom) og leddsmerter gitt selolje (10 ml x 3 per dag) i 10 dager gjennom sonde ned i tynntarmen. Pasientene følte seg mye bedre i leddene, men tarmsymptomene ble bare delvis bedre. Da fem av pasientene senere fikk ny selolje-tilførsel, ble de undersøkt av en revmatolog før og etter behandling, og igjen ble grad av leddsmerter mindre. Kontaktperson: Livar Frøyland. Effects of duodenal seal oil administration in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Selolje kurerer leddsmerter. Resultata er oppsiktsvekkjande etter fem år med kliniske forsøk med selolje i Bergen. Pasientar med betennelse i tarmen og vonde ledd blir kvitt smertene for kortare eller lengre periodar.

Forskarar ved Haukeland universitetssykehus og Nasjonalt institutt for ernæring og sjømatforsking (NIFES) er dei første i verda som har forska på selolje og leddsmerter, og arbeidet kan få store konsekvensar for pasientar i framtida. Utvetydige resultat- Om ti år kan selolje bli sjølve «grunnsmøringa» for denne pasientgruppa, og den viktigaste behandlingsforma mot leddplager, seier professor Arnold Berstad ved Haukeland universitetssykehus til BT. - Er dette ein ny vidunderkur? - Det ser slik ut. Pasientane har ikkje opplevd noko liknande før. Sidan 1998 har forskarane i Bergen gjort kliniske forsøk med selolje.

. - Feittet til selen stivnar ikkje i kulda, forklarar Berstad til BT. - Når revmatikarar får i seg det same feittet, blir også dei mjuke i ledda, og stivnar ikkje når det er kaldt. Crohn's disease. Signs and symptoms Gastrointestinal Many people with Crohn's disease have symptoms for years prior to the diagnosis.[19] The usual onset is between 15 and 30 years of age, but can occur at any age.[20] Because of the 'patchy' nature of the gastrointestinal disease and the depth of tissue involvement, initial symptoms can be more subtle than those of ulcerative colitis. People with Crohn's disease experience chronic recurring periods of flare-ups and remission.[21] Abdominal pain may be the initial symptom of Crohn's disease. Symptoms caused by intestinal stenosis are also common in Crohn's disease.

Perianal discomfort may also be prominent in Crohn's disease. Systemic Extraintestinal Crohn's disease that affects the ileum may result in an increased risk for gallstones. Crohn's disease may also involve the skin, blood, and endocrine system. People with Crohn's often also have issues with small bowel bacterial overgrowth syndrome, which has similar symptoms.[36] Cause Genetics Immune system.

Food

Fermented Food for Beginners: Lacto-Fermented Vegetables. This is part 3 in a four part series. I renamed this series Fermented Food for Beginners in the hopes that it will encourage anyone who was intimidated about making their own ferments, as I was. Before the advent of modern day canning most of our American fore mothers understood the process of lacto-fermentation. They had crocks of real sauerkraut, lacto-fermented cucumber pickles and other treasures such as beets, onions or garlic waiting out the winter in the root cellar. Those countries with histories deeper than our own also traditionally fermented vegetables with simply salt, water and spices – knowing that the lactic acid produced would prevent the putrefication of these precious nutritional storehouses, keeping them fed through winter.

Kimchi from Korea and cortido from Latin America are just two of the flavorful and delicious condiments not native to our own country. If you are like I was – intimidated and a bit doubtful – then don’t be. Cortido Pickled Cucumbers.
