Science Is Finally Proving The Existence Of Meridian Points Throughout The Human Body The Facts:Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University Richard Conn Henry published a paper in the journal Nature titled "The Mental Universe" emphasizing how metaphysics plays a central role in understanding the nature of our reality.Reflect On:Are we metaphysical beings? What impact does our collective consciousness have on our physical material reality and the overall human experience? Is our consciousness manipulated in any way today? What Happened: In 2005, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University Richard Conn Henry published a paper in the journal Nature titled “The Mental Universe.” A fundamental conclusion of the new physics also acknowledges that the observer creates the reality. The underlying idea he’s getting across with this statement is that in some way shape or form, consciousness is directly intertwined with what we perceive to be our physical material world, and that the nature of reality is made up of non-physical “stuff.”
healthscatter2.png (PNG Image, 700x600 pixels) Circadian rhythm Some features of the human circadian (24-hour) biological clock The term circadian comes from the Latin circa, meaning "around" (or "approximately"), and diēs, meaning "day". The formal study of biological temporal rhythms, such as daily, tidal, weekly, seasonal, and annual rhythms, is called chronobiology. Although circadian rhythms are endogenous ("built-in", self-sustained), they are adjusted (entrained) to the local environment by external cues called zeitgebers (from German, "time giver"), which include light, temperature and redox cycles.[2] History[edit] The first recorded observation of an endogenous circadian oscillation was by the French scientist Jean-Jacques d'Ortous de Mairan in 1729. The term circadian was coined by Franz Halberg in the 1950s.[14] Criteria[edit] To be called circadian, a biological rhythm must meet these three general criteria:[15] Origin[edit] Circadian rhythms allow organisms to anticipate and prepare for precise and regular environmental changes.

Study: The Human Body Responds To Sharp Changes In Solar & Geomagnetic Activity The Facts:Data from the CDC's Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS) shows, as of today, 929 deaths, 316 permanent disabilities and more than 15,000 adverse reactions reported after of the COVID-19 vaccine.Reflect On:Should private institutions/companies have the right to mandate this vaccine for people and employees? When it comes to vaccines, should freedom of choice remain? Why is only one perspective presented by mainstream media? What Happened: According to the CDC Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System (VAERS), as of today (February 20th, 2021) 929 deaths, 316 permanent disabilities and more than 15,000 adverse events have been reported from people after taking the COVID-19 vaccine. Many articles have been using VAERS to claim that the COVID-19 vaccine is causing deaths & injuries, but according to Facebook Fact Checker Health Feedback, the adverse events attributed to the COVID-19 don’t demonstrate a causal relationship between the vaccine and the adverse events.

Melatonin Melatonin, also known as N-acetyl-5-methoxy tryptamine,[1] is a hormone that is produced by the pineal gland in animals and regulates sleep and wakefulness.[2] Melatonin is also produced in plants where it functions as a first line of defense against oxidative stress.[3] As a medicine, it is used for the treatment of insomnia; however, scientific evidence is insufficient to demonstrate a benefit in this area.[8] Melatonin is sold over the counter in the United States, Canada and some European countries. In other countries, it may require a prescription or it may be unavailable. History[edit] In 1958, dermatology professor Aaron B. Lerner and colleagues at Yale University, in the hope that a substance from the pineal might be useful in treating skin diseases, isolated the hormone from bovine pineal gland extracts and named it melatonin.[13] In the mid-70s Lynch et al. demonstrated[14] that the production of melatonin exhibits a circadian rhythm in human pineal glands.

'100: What Time Creates' | Elderly Portraits of 100-Year-Old People This post may contain affiliate links. If you make a purchase, My Modern Met may earn an affiliate commission. Please read our disclosure for more info. For years, photographer Anastasia Pottinger has strived to shine a spotlight on an underrated and overlooked demographic: the elderly. Specifically, she features centenarians—people who have lived to be 100 years old—in her series of revealing portraits. Compiled into a book called 100: What Time Creates, these one-of-a-kind photographs offer an “intricate look into the beauty that can be found by appreciating and valuing how our bodies change with the passage of time.” Pottinger notes that modern society's obsession with youth is what initially inspired her to turn her attention to older subjects. In addition to shooting photographs of the elderly for this passion project, Pottinger also specializes in child photography. To see her body of work, check out the website for Rogue Studios, her photography company. Related Articles:
Suprachiasmatic nucleus Part of the brain's hypothalamus The suprachiasmatic nucleus or nuclei (SCN) is a tiny region of the brain in the hypothalamus, situated directly above the optic chiasm. It is responsible for controlling circadian rhythms. The SCN interacts with many other regions of the brain. Neuroanatomy[edit] The nucleus can be divided into ventrolateral and dorsolateral portions, also known as the core and shell, respectively. In terms of projections, the core receives innervation via three main pathways, the retinohypothalamic tract, geniculohypothalamic tract, and projections from some Raphe nuclei. Circadian effects[edit] Different organisms such as bacteria,[2] plants, fungi, and animals, show genetically based near-24-hour rhythms. The SCN sends information to other hypothalamic nuclei and the pineal gland to modulate body temperature and production of hormones such as cortisol and melatonin. Circadian rhythms of endothermic (warm-blooded) and ectothermic (cold-blooded) vertebrates[edit]
Want to Be Taller? Radical Surgery Permanently Extends Your Legs. IN THE LAST YEAR, at least 30 men have made an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon named Dr. Kevin Debiparshad to have him saw through their perfectly healthy leg bones. At his LimbplastX Institute in Las Vegas, Debiparshad cuts through patients’ femurs or tibias, forces the bones to separate with metal implants, and sends them on their way to heal. Once their bones grow back, they’ll be several inches taller — like that one scene in the 1997 sci-fi film “Gattaca.” “It’s no secret that taller men have an advantage when it comes to dating,” reads a LimbplastX Institute press release. When Futurism spoke with Debiparshad, he dismissed the press release as marketing hyperbole — though he didn’t quite rule out dating as a motivation for leg-extension surgery. “I don’t think [dating is] the main reason people do that,” he said. Officially called distraction osteogenesis, the leg extension surgery involves cutting either the femur, tibia, or both, and using metal braces to extend the bones.
Tryptophan Tryptophan (symbol Trp or W)[2] is an α-amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. It contains an α-amino group, an α-carboxylic acid group, and a side chain indole, making it a non-polar aromatic amino acid. It is essential in humans, meaning the body cannot synthesize it: it must be obtained from the diet. Like other amino acids, tryptophan is a zwitterion at physiological pH where the amino group is protonated (–NH3+; pKa = 9.39) and the carboxylic acid is deprotonated ( –COO−; pKa = 2.38).[4] Function[edit] Metabolism of L-tryptophan into serotonin and melatonin (left) and niacin (right). The disorder fructose malabsorption causes improper absorption of tryptophan in the intestine, reduced levels of tryptophan in the blood,[10] and depression.[11] Recommended dietary allowance[edit] In 2002, the U.S. Dietary sources[edit] Use as a dietary supplement[edit] In 2001 a Cochrane review of the effect of 5-HTP and tryptophan on depression was published.

Why Your Brain Needs Exercise In the 1990s researchers announced a series of discoveries that would upend a bedrock tenet of neuroscience. For decades the mature brain was understood to be incapable of growing new neurons. Once an individual reached adulthood, the thinking went, the brain began losing neurons rather than gaining them. But evidence was building that the adult brain could, in fact, generate new neurons. In one particularly striking experiment with mice, scientists found that simply running on a wheel led to the birth of new neurons in the hippocampus, a brain structure that is associated with memory. Since then, other studies have established that exercise also has positive effects on the brains of humans, especially as we age, and that it may even help reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative conditions. Physical activity improves the function of many organ systems in the body, but the effects are usually linked to better athletic performance. Flexing the Brain
