Are amyloid plaques really the driving factor behind Alzheimer’s? You’ve probably seen the latest news headlines confirming the link between the herpes virus and the development of Alzheimer’s disease. This isn’t a new finding, by any means. I alerted you to this unusual connection back in April of 2012. But until now it hasn’t been widely accepted. That’s because many medical professionals are still holding onto an outdated theory called the “amyloid hypothesis”. According to this hypothesis, the build up of amyloid plaques in the brain is the driving factor behind Alzheimer’s disease. However, when Alzheimer’s patients are given ...

TEHRAN (FNA)- Scientists at Iran’s prominent stem cell research and infertility treatment center, Royan, produced a beating heart in rats, using progenitor cardiovascular cells. In this research, the human stem cells were cultured in a large volume in a bioreactor and were differentiated and transferred in several stages to the decellularized heart of the rat. Results of the research showed that after survival and differentiation of progenitor cardiovascular cells to the heart cells, the smooth heart muscle and endothelial cells were improved and the heart beats in the right direction 12 days after transferring the cells. Iran has taken wide strides in science and technology, ...
Heart risk link to SSRI antidepressants confirmed

Some but not all antidepressant drugs known as SSRIs pose a very small but serious heart risk, say researchers. Citalopram and escitalopram, which fall into this drug group, can trigger a heart rhythm disturbance, a new study in the British Medical Journal shows. UK and US regulators have already warned doctors to be extra careful about which patients they prescribe these medicines to. And they have lowered the maximum recommended dose. The UK's Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) says people with pre-existing heart conditions should have a heart trace before going on these drugs, to check for a rhythm disturbance known as long QT interval. People taking ...

Global Warming Study Suggests Thousands Will Commit Suicide Over the Weather By Michael Bastasch July 24, 2018 at 10:07am A July study claims that thousands more people will commit suicide in the coming decades due to man-made global warming. Published in the journal Nature Climate Change on Monday, the study found a one-degree increase in average monthly temperature correlated with suicide rate increases of 0.68 percent and 2.1 percent in the U.S. and Mexico, respectively. The effect they found is extremely small, and in some cases, not statistically significant from zero. Still, the results were touted in media reports as evidence that increased temperatures exacerbate suicides. ...
The age you feel means more than your actual birthdate

ine Most people feel younger or older than they really are – and this 'subjective age' has a big effect on their physical and mental health. Imagine, for a moment, that you had no birth certificate and your age was simply based on the way you feel inside. How old would you say you are? Like your height or shoe size, the number of years that have passed since you first entered the world is an unchangeable fact. But everyday experience suggests that we often don’t experience ageing the same way, with many people feeling older or younger than they really are. Scientists are increasingly interested in this quality. They are finding that your ‘subjective age’ may ...

Fatty Nutrient Absorption
Post Date: 2018-07-22 07:14:10 by Tatarewicz

CHN... Fatty nutrients are tricky. On the one hand, essential fats such as EFAs, Vitamin D, E, A and K, in addition to plant nutrients, are super-important. They’re particularly significant for long-term kinds of biological process such as building muscle and bone, for fertility, baby building and even stress management. On the other hand, they’re complex and sticky molecules that are difficult for the digestive system to process and require a lot of energy to be extracted from foods. In order for the bonds that tether fatty nutrients to foods to be loosened, the stomach must be adequately producing acid and enzymes. The intestine, gall bladder, liver, and pancreas must be ...
Study: CT Scans May Increase Brain Cancer Risk
Post Date: 2018-07-22 06:56:58 by Tatarewicz

TEHRAN (FNA)- A new study suggests that CT scans, commonly used in medical imaging, may increase the risk of brain tumors. The use of computed tomography (CT) scans has increased dramatically over the last two decades. CT scans greatly improve diagnostic capabilities (which improve clinical outcomes) but they deliver higher radiation doses than other tests. Therefore, radiation protection is a concern, especially among children, who may receive higher radiation doses, are more susceptible to radiation-related malignancies than adults and have more time to show effects from the potential risk. The most common malignancies caused by radioactivity among children and young adults are ...
The Vindication of Cheese, Butter, and Full-Fat Milk

A new study exonerates dairy fats as a cause of early death, even as low-fat products continue to be misperceived as healthier. As a young child I missed a question on a psychological test: “What comes in a bottle?” The answer was supposed to be milk. I said beer. Milk almost always came in cartons and plastic jugs, so I was right. But this isn’t about rehashing old grudges. I barely even think about it anymore! The point is that the test was a relic of a time before me, when milk did come in bottles. It arrived on doorsteps each morning, by the hand of some vanishing man. And just as such a world was alien to me as a kid, the current generation of small children might ...

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Ever feel like your doctor is in a rush to get you out the door when you come in for a visit? You’re not just imagining things. A new study finds physicians give a patient an average of just 11 seconds to describe their issue before cutting them off. Researchers from the University of Florida determined that for all the waiting we do after we arrive at a medical practitioner’s office, its the doctors who seem to have the least amount of patience. The study showed that just a third of physicians give patients adequate time to explain why they’re there.

One in every three Americans will “contract” some form of cancer in their lifetime, and only about 50 percent will survive that attack. Those are some grim statistics, huh? Now get this: Has any doctor reviewed with you or your loved ones the odds of chemotherapy actually working, or what the statistics are for Americans getting killed by the now infamous chemical medicine that’s supposedly “designed” to kill the cancer? On average, chemotherapy fails more than 97 percent of the cancer victims who’ve been prescribed this mainstream “medicine.” Wait, what? How is that mainstream, and why?

TEHRAN (FNA)- New study has found it can prevent cancer cells from migrating and caused cancer cell death. In a recent study conducted at the University of Illinois, researchers have found that in mice, the molecules called endocannabinoids, are made naturally by the body and have similar properties to cannabinoids found in marijuana - but without the psychotropic effects. In mice with tumors of osteosarcoma - a bone cancer that is notoriously painful and difficult to treat - endocannabinoids slowed the growth of tumors and blood vessels, inhibited the cancer cells from migrating and caused cancer cell death. "We have a built-in endocannabinoid system which is anti-inflammatory and ...

JERUSALEM, July 4 (Xinhua) -- A recent Israeli scientific research showed that people who drink desalinated water are more likely to have heart diseases. The reason was a lack of magnesium in desalinated water. Magnesium is essential for over 300 metabolic processes, regulation of vascular tone, and insulin sensitivity, according to the Israeli Channel 12 on Wednesday. The large-scale study was based on data from Israel's biggest state-mandated health service organization Clalit and conducted from 2004 to 2013 with 178,000 respondents aged between 25 and 76. Currently, Israel has the highest level of water desalination in the Western world. Around 70 percent of the country's ...

Infomercial... What sets off inflammation overrun in the first place? Unhealthy inflammatory response is usually caused by the overproduction of certain "trigger enzymes" in the body. You've probably heard about COX-1 and COX-2. When these enzymes build up, they cause swelling and discomfort, especially in the joints. There are plenty of over-the-counter remedies as well as natural solutions that claim to block both these compounds. I've tried them myself, and most of my patients have, too. While COX inhibitors provide some relief against inflammation, many people find there is little or no relief at all. Why? Because there's a third, hidden inflammatory enzyme in ...

Aeon In September 2017, a screenshot of a simple conversation went viral on the Russian-speaking segment of the internet. It showed the same phrase addressed to two conversational agents: the English-speaking Google Assistant, and the Russian-speaking Alisa, developed by the popular Russian search engine Yandex. The phrase was straightforward: ‘I feel sad.’ The responses to it, however, couldn’t be more different. ‘I wish I had arms so I could give you a hug,’ said Google. ‘No one said life was about having fun,’ replied Alisa.

For a very long time, we have bought into this idea that if we are sick the only way that we can get better is under the advice of a Medical Doctor. They are trained extensively on the human body, disease, and illness; they certainly should know a whole lot about how to help sick people, right? Unfortunately, although they generally have the best intentions, most of that which ails us today can be almost completely eradicated with alternative preventative medicine which mainstream medicine typically fails to recognize. Now, before the eye rolls start, let me clarify — yes, we need doctors, we need surgeons, we need experts to help us heal what ails us, but we also need more ...
