The Role of Oxalates in Autism and Chronic Disorders. Read this article in: Dutch A mummy that had been preserved for a couple of thousand years in the high desert of Chile was discovered upon X-ray examination to have a very large oxalate stone in the kidney, about the size of a golf ball. The discovery of this ancient sufferer is testimony to the fact that kidney stones and oxalate toxicity have afflicted humans for a very long time. Oxalates (the salt form of oxalic acid) are extremely painful when deposited in the body. About eighty percent of kidney stones are caused by oxalates and they are by far the most common factor in kidney stone formation. There is also a large degree of genetic variability in the ability to detoxify the chemicals that produce oxalates. Perhaps twenty percent of the population has a genetic variance that increases their likelihood of producing oxalates, even when not consuming a high-oxalate diet.

Some kidney stones acquire a stag horn shape, while some oxalate crystals resemble pieces of coral. A Dr. Dr. What's Hot: March 2013. News flashes are posted here frequently to keep you up-to-date with the latest advances in health and longevity. We have an unparalleled track record of breaking stories about life extension advances. Dr Gerardo Ferbeyre of the University’s department of biochemistry and his associates discovered that metformin inhibits the expression of genes that code for a number of inflammatory cytokines observed during cellular senescence.

"Cells normally secrete these inflammatory cytokines when they need to mount an immune response to infection, but chronic production of these same cytokines can also cause cells to age,” Dr Ferbeyre explained. “Such chronic inflammation can be induced, for example by smoking. " "We were surprised by our finding that metformin could prevent the production of inflammatory cytokines by old cells.

There Is Only One Type of Cholesterol: Here's Why. 11 Ways to Keep Your Blood Pressure Just Right. 11 Ways to Keep Your Blood Pressure "Just Right" Imagine for a moment the water pressure in a garden hose. If the pressure is too low, the hose is limp and won't spray.

If the pressure is too high, the hose can burst. Your arteries and veins — the vessels that carry blood throughout your body — work pretty much like that garden hose. If your blood pressure is too low, your organs don't get the blood they need to function properly (particularly your brain). This can make you feel dizzy and light-headed when you stand up; fatigued throughout the day; and "crash" after exercise. If your pressure is elevated, the strong rush of blood can damage blood vessels, leading to heart attack, stroke, kidney failure and other diseases. The best blood pressure is optimal blood pressure — not too low, not too high, but "just right. " If your blood pressure is too low it's likely you'll have one or more of the symptoms I just described. In my opinion, blood pressure shouldn't be elevated above 140/85. 1. 2.

A database for medicinal plants used in treatment of asthma. The New Science: Magnetism and Plasmatronics Will Change Everything We Know About Health and Our Universe. Michael Forrester, Prevent DiseaseWaking Times The developed world has dwelled on primitive technologies for far too long. Whether it be conventional aircrafts, primitive vehicles with combustible engines, or treatment systems that are worse for our health than the diseases they attempt to cure, there is no end to the stagnant lack of advanced technology available to humanity. All that is about change in less than a decade. Think about traveling at 40 times the speed of sound or being able to eradicate any disease even before it is ever created.

Science will soon be unlearned and the new science will take over the planet. This incredible emerging technology is coming our way soon, and this time the people of the world will know it is here to stay. The very first thing world powers do when their control systems are threatened (and they can’t elimate the idea) is they create a misinformation system to make people believe that powerful new emerging technologies are a hoax. Ultimate Jamming.
