WELLINGTON, April 5 (Xinhua) -- New Zealand scientists said Tuesday they have discovered a promising new market that could lead to the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease with a simple blood test. Researchers at Otago University discovered that a small number of a large class of molecules called microRNA - found in both the human brain and blood - were exceptionally good at detecting Alzheimer's disease, a debilitating form of dementia. Previously, blood plasma microRNA had been shown to reflect various disease processes, and specific microRNA were linked to neurological diseases, prompting researcher Dr Joanna Williams to suggest that blood microRNA levels might reflect changes in ...

ScienceAlert... The idea of growing human skin and artificial tissue in a lab might sound freaky at first, but scientists are hopeful that it could one day remove the need for transplants and enable us to patch up our own bodies like replacing parts in a motor car. And this latest artificial skin, developed by researchers in Japan, is so realistic, it's able to grow new hairs and potentially even excrete sweat. Led by researchers from the RIKEN Centre for Developmental Biology, the team extracted cells from the gums of mice and converted them into a specialised type of stem cell. They then used these to build three-dimensional skin-like structures - complete with functioning hair ...
Evidence emerges that 45% of common sunscreen ingredients mess with sperm function

ScienceAlert... Researchers have found that 13 out of 29 UV filters used in sunscreens in the US and Europe can disrupt the function of human sperm cells - with some even mimicking the effect of the female hormone progesterone, and messing with sperm mobility. So far, the UV filters have only been tested in human sperm cells in the lab, and not in live males, so there's no need to freak out, but it's a link that's worth investigating further. "These results are of concern and might explain in part why unexplained infertility is so prevalent," said lead researcher Niels Skakkebaek from the University of Copenhagen in Denmark. It's also worth mentioning that while ...

Long-Term Vegetarian Diet Increases Risk of Heart Disease and Cancer Image: Long-Term Vegetarian Diet Increases Risk of Heart Disease and Cancer (Copyright AP) By Sylvia Booth Hubbard | Wednesday, 30 Mar 2016 12:30 PM Vegetarian diets might not be so healthy after all. A study conducted at Cornell University found that eating a vegetarian diet long-term changes DNA and makes people more susceptible to inflammation, which increases their risk for heart disease and colon cancer. The researchers found that about 70 percent of people in India, a country where many people eat plant-based diets, had a higher frequency of a particular gene mutation compared to only 20 percent of meat-eating ...

Eliminating Yeast and Candida Overgrowth By Jacob Teitelbaum, M.D. | Friday, 25 Mar 2016 02:50 PM Do you have chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, or even sinusitis or spastic colon? You probably have overgrowth of yeast or Candida. Though poorly understood by most physicians, treating this underlying infection can have profound health benefits. There are no definitive tests for yeast overgrowth that will distinguish yeast overgrowth from normal yeast growth in the body. However, if you have any of the following conditions you should be treated with antifungals: • CFS or fibromyalgia • Chronic nasal congestion or sinusitis • Spastic colon (gas, bloating, diarrhea ...

Truth About Cancer Documentary by Stephen Lendman Information on the important documentary to be released online April 12 states “CANCER WILL KILL NEARLY 8 MILLION PEOPLE THIS YEAR.” Truth is systematically suppressed on how to avoid being one of its victims. Media scoundrels won’t air the documentary, with vital information drug industry bandits want suppressed. Media freedom in America is wishful thinking. Industry corporate giants suppress what’s most important to report. People are systematically lied to.

ScienceAlert... A new study has found that eating small amounts of dark chocolate, which is high in an antioxidant called polyphenol, can increase feelings of calmness and contentedness. While eating too much chocolate is obviously still bad for you - no matter how high it is in antioxidants - the research is good news for all of us who just indulged in lots of dark chocolate over the long weekend. Unfortunately, the mental health benefits didn’t hold for those who ate chocolate with little or no polyphenol, such as white chocolate. "Anecdotally, chocolate is often linked to mood enhancement," said lead author of the study, Matthew Pase from Swinburne University of ...

ScienceAlert... For the first time, scientists have successfully regrown part of the spinal cord responsible for voluntary movement in mice, using patches of stem cells. While we're still a long way from a cure for paralysis and other spinal cord injuries in humans, the success of the experiment goes against what researchers had assumed for many years - that you can't regenerate neurons in the spinal cord. The set of cells in question are the corticospinal axons, thought to be the most important motor system in humans. "It has not been successfully generated before," said one of the team, Mark Tuszynski from the University of California, San Diego. "Many have tried, ...
Pediatrics Journal says to stop calling 'Breastfeeding' Natural

A new article in the journal Pediatrics is calling on health professionals to stop saying that breastfeeding is natural, arguing that doing so gives the impression that natural parenting practices are healthier. The authors have started a public campaign to end the positive use of the word natural, claiming that it is associated with such "problematic" practices as home birth, homeschooling and the rejection of GMO foods, and that natural parenting movements are interfering with vaccination efforts. In the article, Unintended Consequences of Invoking the “Natural” in Breastfeeding Promotion, Jessica Martucci and Anne Barnhill, Medical Ethics and Health Policy ...

For the first time in history, more people are obese than underweight. The past 40 years have seen an unprecedented increase in the number of obese adults worldwide, climbing to about 640 million from 105 million in 1975. If the current trend continues, about one-fifth of adults will be obese by 2025. The rate has more than doubled for women and tripled for men, according to a new analysis published in the Lancet. Under the present trajectory, the chance of meeting a goal set by the World Health Organization to halt the increase over the next decade is, according to the study, “virtually zero.” Behind the global spike is greater access to cheap food as incomes have risen. ...

ScienceAlert... When you’re young, it’s easy to convince yourself that a few years here or there at the end of your life isn’t such a big deal, but one, two, or three years extra with your friends and family before the eternal unknowingness of death is really nothing to sniff at. And now researchers have identified two gene variants carried by more than two-thirds of the global population that can cut your average lifespan by up to three years. That means, regardless of what you do with your body, the guy next to you could have three years on you, just because of how your genomes were put together. Researchers from University of Edinburgh in the UK figured this out by ...
A vegetarian diet could cause long-term genetic changes
Post Date: 2016-03-31 06:14:15 by Tatarewicz
0 Comments
ScienceAlert... Researchers have found evidence of a genetic variation in populations with a history of a plant-based diet. This variation, or allele, appears to have developed over hundreds of generations, allowing vegetarian populations to more efficiently process omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and convert them into compounds that aid brain development. The team from Cornell University found another variation too: the Inuit populations of Greenland, whose diet is mainly based around seafood, didn't have the same DNA building blocks as similar communities that were largely vegetarian. While the vegetarian allele was found to have an insertion of 22 bases (DNA building blocks) within ...

Surprising Things That Can Damage Your Liver

WebMD...Too much sugar isn’t just bad for your teeth. It can harm your liver, too. The organ uses one type of sugar, called fructose, to make fat. Too much refined sugar and high-fructose corn syrup causes a fatty buildup that can lead to liver disease. Some studies show that sugar can be as damaging to the liver as alcohol, even if you’re not overweight. It’s one more reason to limit foods with added sugars, such as soda, pastries, and candy. Even if the label says “natural,” it may not be OK for you. For instance, some people take an herb called kava kava for menopause symptoms or to help them relax. But studies show that it can keep the liver from working right. ...
The Legalization Cure for the Heroin Epidemic

A heroin epidemic has been spreading across the United States, expanding enormously for the last several years. With it, the number of people dying has also increased dramatically. While politicians offer failed solutions like “securing the borders,” the real solution is to legalize drugs. The number of drug overdoses in the US is approaching 50,000 per year. Of that number nearly 20,000 are attributed to legal pain killers, such as Oxycontin. More than 10,000 die of heroin overdoses. I believe these figures vastly underestimate the number of deaths that are related to prescription drug use. The “face” of the heroin epidemic has changed since the 1960s when it was ...

According to data analyzed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: "Within six years of vaccine introduction, there was a 64 percent decrease in 4-valent HPV-type prevalence among females ages 14 to 19, and a 34 percent decrease among those ages 20 to 24 years." Clearly, the HPV vaccine works, ...

***Check out the Holistic Cannabis Summit for everything experts are doing with Cannabis right now: http://bit.ly/1Rl3eIS*** Throughout the United States, prescription drug overdoses have been a major problem. But now, with the rise of medical marijuana in many states, the number of deaths from pharmaceutical painkillers is on the decline. Deaths caused by prescription of Opioid (opium), Vicodin, and OxyContin have approximately tripled since 1991, and every day 46 people die of such overdoses in the United States. However, in the 13 states that passed laws allowing for the use of medical marijuana between 1999 and 2010, 25 percent fewer people die overdoses of opioid drugs each year. ...
