Because Jews don't originate from Europe, a continent where animal husbandry of cows ( for milk ) is commonplace. The climate also plays a major role in the development of such an economy. Lactose intolerance itself is also not a real disease, as the production of lactase well into adulthood is...

I have to sincerely apologize to you, and I meant no disrespect before. I looked it up, and you're right, magnesium does also help in preventing calcification. ( Found several items on this subject. From what I gathered was that vascular smooth muscle cells must play a key role, albeit the...

With due respect, calcium is either stored inside specialized organelles, e.g. the sarcoplasmic reticulum and the mitochondria, or bound by proteins inside cells. Calcification of blood vessels, a far more serious problem, depends upon the activity of a vitamin-K2-dependent protein, the...

Is the rotation split into three shifts? If yes, I'd also consider adapting gradually to a new rhythm by taking the late shift ( in the afternoon till the late evening ). The body can be rather sensitive to sudden changes They are very well related with one another. Your hormones are subject...

The sleep quality is not the same, and there are definitely going to be physical consequences, as well. With respect to your question, I'm afraid the answer is rather non-spiritual: Sleep is regulated by nervous nuclei inside the hypothalamus. They receive their signals via the...

Soaps and tensides work by forming micelles ( cell-like structures ) around substances that are only soluble in oils, e.g. fatty acids, bacteria ( because of their membrane, their "hull" or "protective wall" so to speak ). After that you just wash it off. You never achieve 100% sterility, but it...

You have to listen to your own body. Everything is toxic in a high enough dosage. Personally, I'm not fond of using it orally. I only apply it externally in small concentrations for bacterial infections. Hydrogen peroxide is created directly ( or indirectly via superoxide dismutase ) as a side...

Crazy, I once had a similar experience! It was a different place of hell, but both the colors and the architecture match your description rather well! I'm not sure if it was by means of astral projection or lucid dreaming, but I fell into a trance and 'willed' myself into hell in order to check...

Because epithelial cells of the gastric mucosa produce no such thing called 'gunk' over the years. Most secreted substances of the human body comprise proteins and/or ions, and are not carcinogenic. What you described is effectively a neoplasm or gastric epitheliosis, which do not occur in...

Protein will not help with diet, it actually IS an essential cornerstone of a healthy diet. It's important for maintaining the nitrogen balance for your body. It's equally important for both sexes. Muscle tone is defined by a low body fat percentage. This is the result of a calorie restriction...

Yes, Ol argedco luciftias is right. See it from this point of view: You wouldn't consume powdered glucose, either. Or drink several ounces of molten butter. At least, that's what a healthy individual would do. For diet per se, I wouild recommend foods with both a high biological value and a...

Only in special cases, if by 'big surplus' you mean taking more than the recommended amount. Proteins are split into monopeptide fragments by means of intestinal ectoenzymes, which are then transported to the liver. A protein-heavy bolus of food will result in 57% being converted into urea...

No, not really. Muscle hypertrophy is energetically unfavorable for the human body. Without a proper stimulus and a surplus of calories, nothing will happen at all. Those who try to virtually flood their bodies with hundreds of grams of proteins would only notice an increase of urea. Apart...

All forms of high intensity training result in an increased release of anabolic hormones, as training itself constitutes catabolic stress. In order to maintain the body's homeostasis, anabolism must always follow after catabolism. Anabolism itself requires an intake of energy: food. Minerals...

Isn't it possible to conduct a more direct working to interfere with the cell cycle itself, as long as energy is properly programmed and directed? I was thinking along the lines of depriving the neoplastic cells of ATP in order to trigger either mitotic arrest, or apoptosis. I do remember...

No, I don't mind it at all. If I can help you out in any way, I'd be happy to! One question, though: The contact formula on your profile is empty, correct? I just want to make sure that it isn't NoScript blocking things on my end.

If you try to approach this from a more epigenetic point of view, it gets even more interesting. The activity of your genes can be influenced without directly altering the genetic code itself. It's a phenomenon we summarize as 'epigenetics'. Usually, it is a completely normal process. For...

I personally harbor a feeling of animosity toward the whole fitness business, as there are a lot of 'meme exercises' that do not correspond to the anatomic function of a muscle ( or joint ) at all, e.g. barbell bench press. In the case of squats ( or one-legged ) squats, it's the mechanics of...

Also including the suppression of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal-axis, the effects on the thyme parenchyma and the enforced catabolism? Yes, it's mere symptom treatment. The rigidness of school medicine can be mind-blowing, an eosinophilia is not triggered without cause. On a more personal...

I have found some interesting studies about problems of excess dietary salt As I couldn't find anything on the JoS forum, I decided to do some research myself. I noticed that salt is a rather controversial subject, so I ended making a summary of everything I could find. My goal is to spark a...

Vitamin K2 is actually required for facilitating the synthesis of thrombin, a protein that stimulates the platelets ( thrombocytes ) to produce fibrin. If a blood vessel is damaged, the von Willebrand factor allows the platelets to bind to the cells of the inner vascular wall. After that, the...

Awesome that you mention it! This really becomes evident if one regards the tibiofemoral joint ( one of the two components of the knee joint ). There a two menisci placed on top of the tibia ( = shinbone ) plateau. Their purpose is to reduce friction. Since they are only attached to the tibia...

Hello everyone! I'm new around here! I just wanted to introduce myself before I begin posting. ;) I've been a dedicated Satanist for four years now, but here, on this forum, I have been more of a lurker so far. Since I always liked the health forum, and wanted to help out a bit.. I guess I...
