  • Ultram Story: Keeping Pain Control Under Control

    When Aspirin Isn’t Enough

    It’s surprising how clearly we can recall getting hurt. Years later, we can recount our first fall from a too-tempting tree, a bee-sting, the birth of a child. We can even tell humorous stories about those events because the pain was transient – it passed.

    But many illnesses and conditions can make pain a daily visitor, interfering with our jobs, family lives, even sleep. Even ancient people tried to relieve the devastation of chronic pain using surgeries and medicinal herbs. By the 1800s, people started using narcotics (drugs like opium) to redu ...

  • Controlling Acne
    Acne...it affects a majority of teenagers and many adults well into middle age. It is dreaded and despaired over by many who suffer from this common skin condition. Clearing acne begins by understanding what acne really is and what triggers it. Then we will consider how it can be controlled by lifestyle choices, skin care choices and wise use of make-up.

    Who suffers from it?

    Teenagers struggle with acne, but so do many adults. Acne breakouts can result from fluctuating hormone levels at various stages of life, such as puberty, pregnancy or menopause. Outwardly, acne can reveal internal s ...

  • Faster Hair Growth - its as easy as omega 3
    Copyright 2005 David McEvoy

    Most people, and especially good hairdressers and dieticians, know that poor nutrition can make your hair dull and lifeless, as well as affecting its growth. Thus it follows that a good diet can improve the quality of your hair.

    Hair is composed of keratin, a type of protein. A single hair begins with a root below the skin and a follicle from which the root grows – the part of the hair that shows is known as the shaft. Melanin, the pigment which gives hair its colour, is produced in the hair bulb at the follicle’s lower end.

    Around 50-100 head h ...

    Development, inheritance, and linkage-group assignment of 60 novel microsatellite markers for the gray, short-tailed opossum Monodelphis domestica
    Nicolas Gouin, Scott J. Westenberger, Susan M. Mahaney, Peter Lindley, John L. VandeBerg, and Paul B. SamollowShort-tandem-repeat (SSR) or microsatellite polymorphisms are some of the most extensively employed genetic markers in contemporary linkage mapping studies. To date, only a limited number...


    Interpolated genetic map position of polymorphisms
    All polymorphisms now have an interpolated genetic map position. These positions are calculated by interpolating over 15,000 polymorphisms into a genetic map containing over 1700 markers. This data is most directly evident on the Markers search page. In general, this should help to stabilize the position of polymorphisms on the genetic map.

  • Understanding Glyconutrients

    You say you don’t know what glyconutrients are? You are not alone. Perhaps you have heard a bit about glyconutrients but you don’t really know what they are or how they could benefit you. Understanding the role the glyconutrients play in the overall scheme of nutrition is very important if you are interested in supporting your own health and the health of those you know and love.

    In the 26th edition of Harper’s Illustrated Biochemistry, chapter 47 is a new chapter on the subject of glycoproteins. These microscopic structures are essential to all cellular function. They are constructed ...

  • Enough is Enough
    The largest issue in our country today is not being addressed by either Republicans or by Democrats. I love my children and I want to do my part to ensure they grow up in the best country in the world. Voters need to become informed about the irresponsible government spending explosion and vote these politicians out of office.

    Our current politicians are not acting responsibly. When George W. Bush took office four years ago the federal government was over 5.6 trillion dollars in debt. Today the federal government is over 7.4 trillion dollars in debt. The debt has grown 1.8 trillion doll ...

  • Do you have Eczema or Dermatitis?
    Copyright 2005 Michael Brooks

    Although many people believe that eczema and dermatitis are separate conditions, they are actually one and the same. The most common form of this skin condition is atopic eczema. Depending on what study you read, there are between 18 and 34 million people that exhibit symptoms of eczema. Atopic eczema is often genetic and can be associated with a family history of environmental sensitivities and allergic conditions like asthma or hay fever.

    What are the symptoms?

    One of the most common symptoms associated with eczema is extreme itchiness. Spea ...
