  • Lower Cholesterol Levels Are Critical To Good Health
    Article: Lower Cholesterol Levels Are Critical To Good Health By Phil Beckett Copyright © Physique Concepts Inc.

    Can any man really lower his cholesterol?

    Lower cholesterol levels should be a health concern of every man.

    Heart disease is the number one killer among so-called healthy men in Western world today. More than 40% of men will die from it.

    What is particularly disturbing is that strokes and heart attacks are becoming much more common in younger men.

    It seems that younger men, even those who look physically like they are in good health, are dying because they can't lower ...

  • MADE OF ATOMIC SIZE STARS IN A CLUMPY FIREWORK UNIVERSE
    The discoveries of normal galaxies, strings of galaxies and heavy elements in the far distant universe [1-7] suggest that these space objects have to be older than what the big bang universe can allow for their creation. In this way the big bang universe enters its current age crisis [8], which will require some new assumptions to mend the edifice of this complex theory. The basic principle of parsimony, known as Occam's razor, says not to do with more, e.g. with more assumptions, what can be done with less [9]. The advance of science shows that nature prefers simplicity and the simple explana ...

  • SINUS CYSTIC FIBROSIS INFECTION: A closer look
    Have you heard of the infection called Sinus Cystic Fibrosis Infection? From the name itself it sounds for a serious ailment isn’t it? What is this all about and how does it affects future sufferers? Let’s try to figure out how!

    According to scientific research Sinus cystic fibrosis infection is an inherited disorder of the exocrine glands, affecting children and young people. It is caused by a genetic abnormality in the sinus cystic fibrosis infection transmembrane conductance regulator gene that results in the disruption of chloride transfer across cell membranes. As a consequence, ch ...

    Genetic Testing Could benefit African American Women

    Ten years after the identification of the first breast cancer susceptibility genes so few high-risk minority women have received genetic counseling or testing that the standard methods of calculating risk have not been validated in these groups and the results of genetic testing can still produce surprises. ......


    Genetic Testing Still Smart Choice

    Screening embryos for genetic diseases during in vitro fertilization offers couples the best chance for a healthy child, but a genetic glitch could potentially cause doctors to misdiagnose a small fraction of them, University of Florida scientists say. Citing concerns about the accuracy of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, the method a number of practitioners use to pick the healthiest embryos during IVF, UF scientists set out to study the procedure. Their work, described during a recent meeting of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, reveals the technique is actually highly reliable. But because there is a slim chance a genetic abnormality can cause doctors to misdiagnose embryos, some concerns still need to be addressed, the scientists said.......


    Method of genetic testing

    This invention provides a method of genetic testing that enables testing of a plurality of variation sites (SNPs) in a cost-effective and simple manner, allowing realization of genetic diagnosis in clinical settings. The SNP type of the nucleic acid sample is evaluated by: allowing a nucleic acid sample having an...


    Study Shows No Emotional Toll From Genetic Testing

  • Twins - Double The Trouble Or Double The Pleasure? Both!

    If You're Having Twins..is it double the headache, or double the joy? Probably both!

    What Causes Twins?
    The number of twins is on the increase, probably because of IVF treatment where more than one fertilised egg is placed in the womb.

    Of the non-IVF twins, there are two causes:

    1. Two eggs are released during ovulation and both are fertilised by separate sperm - it is possible twins can be fathered by two different Dads! In this case the twins are not identical (even if they have the same Dad!). Non-identical twins are also known as fraternal, they s ...

  • Obesity in America -- The Growing Epidemic!

    Obesity is a disease that affects approximately 60 million people in the United States, where women are especially affected. Over one-third of women between the ages of 20 and 74 are obese, the majority of them being African American or Mexican American. With more and more pre-packaged food and less and less activity, the number of obese people in America has steadily increased since the 1960’s.

    But what is obesity? Many people think obesity means that a person is overweight, but that’s not exactly true. An overweight person has a surplus amount of weight that includes muscle, bone, f ...

  • Store Bought Vitamins - Synthetic?

    Did you know that most store bought vitamins and minerals are synthetic and are hard on your liver and kidneys? Have you noticed that if you do take store bought vitamins that you switch the brands like switching shampoos?

    Think about how a cell works. If someone was suffering from scurvy, all they had to do was eat an orange and the body would immediately recover because the cells recognized that copper is the center of vitamin C and that it has all of it's bioflavinoids surrounding it and just one tiny arm of the copper is vitamin C.

    When you buy synthetic vitamin C, you are o ...
