  • Causes of Hair Loss
    Hair loss, in both men and women, can be a difficult matter to face. Most of the time, the individuals who are dealing with hair loss focus solely on the prevention/treatment of hair loss rather than the origin, which may aid in the prevention/treatment of hair loss. Although hair loss causes vary from person to person, there are a few main factors that cause hair loss, such as heredity and aging.

    In men, the most common causes of hair loss are heredity, hormones and aging. These contribute to the potential for men to lose hair. In women, some common causes of hair loss include poor cir ...

  • Time Management Mastery

    From Potential to Performance

    One of the great things about life is that we can realistically be or do anything we choose to. This includes being a good time manager! We must believe that we can be a good time manager - that we have the potential. Unfortunately, many people say, "Well, I am just a poor time manager," as if it was ingrained in their DNA. The truth is that anyone can be a great time manager, if they choose to go from potential to performance.

    So, how do we do this? Here is a simple 7 part process:

    1. Believe that you can become a good time manager

    2. I ...

  • An Interview - on history and educational media
    AN INTERVIEW:
    1. Can you briefly summarize why you think history is a weapon of war against people?

    Briefly?, not really, except to say Sun Tzu wasn’t the first to notice that propaganda was the first and most important part of conquest. Caesars won more through secret deals and blackmailing the likes of Herod and the Sanhedrin than they ever did through force of arms. We saw how guerillas work against a conqueror in Vietnam and even in Iraq at the present. I have written about fifty books. The framework for a new history that is based on forensics and science or artifacts rather tha ...

  • It's Never Too Late to Prevent Osteporosis
    Calcium - a key element in the fight

    (ARA) - Osteoporosis, a chronic disease that results in the deterioration of bone mineral density, affects nearly 28 million Americans -- 2 million of which are men. Despite these staggering numbers, this disease is often preventable.

    Though osteoporosis has been thought of as a disease that affects mostly women, 5-6 million men are at risk of developing this disease each year and the risks increase with age. This year alone 80,000 men will suffer from hip fractures and one-third of these men will die within a year. It has also been estimated that dir ...

  • The Truth About Halitosis, More Commonly Known As Bad Breath
    PART I: THE SCIENCE OF HALITOSIS AND BACTERIA IN YOUR MOUTH

    Halitosis, also more commonly known as bad breath, is caused by anaerobic producing bacteria which normally live WITHIN the surface of the tongue and in the throat. These bacteria are supposed to be there because they assist with digestion by breaking down proteins found in specific foods, mucous or phlegm, blood, and in diseased or "broken-down" oral tissue. Under certain conditions, these bacteria start to break down proteins at a very high rate. Proteins are made up of amino acids, two of which (Cysteine and Methionine) are dens ...

  • Facts about Genetic research

    Genetics, or the science of genes, seems to be the future of modern medicine, and genetic research keeps gaining ground, but together with the great benefits and cures it can bring, genetic research poses a lot of moral and ethical problems, and it has been said that it could even threaten our civil rights and liberties.

    If genetic research continues to develop, parents will be able to have exactly the children they want, and they could plan his life even before his birth. And is this 'right'?Other thing that genetic research could lead to is genetic discrimination - already a numbe ...
