| Mitochondria, Migraine and Magnesium | | 2007-05-02 07:26:00 | | Energy Metabolism is the process of cells burning food to produce energy. This is similar to a car's engine burning gasoline to produce the energy that is used to rotate the car's wheels. The cell’s mitochondria acts as the car’s engine, the food we eat acts as the gasoline, and the energy we need to move and think is similar to the energy used to move the car.Migraine ontstaat doordat de samenwerking tussen bloedvaten en zenuwbanen in de hersenen tijdelijk verstoord raakt. Aanleg speelt hierbij een rol. Waarom de een zelden een aanval heeft en de ander heel vaak is niet bekend. Meestal is er geen duidelijke aanleiding. Soms ontstaat een aanval na lang of juist uitslapen, te kort slapen, een nachtdienst, na vasten of na stress. Vrouwelijke hormonen hebben invloed op de migraine.Two doubleblind studies have shown that magnesium supplementation may reduce the frequency of migraine. Magnesium is responsible for over 300 essential metabolic reactions in the body. It is required for s... | | By: The Health Archive | | |
| | Nanotechnology, Mitochondria and Asbestos similarity | | 2007-03-12 08:17:00 | | Just as the boundaries of computing will soon seem limitless, Mr. Kurzweil insists that improving knowledge and technology will make death avoidable. By the late 2020's, Mr. Kurzweil predicts, the fruits of artificial intelligence and nanotechnology, a technology that permits changes to the body at the cellular level, will really kick in so that science will enable people to rebuild their bodies, any way they want to. In 15 to 20 years, he contends that advances in the understanding of gene processes will make it possible for biotechnology therapies to turn off and reverse disease and aging.Toxins are among the most prevalent in our air, water and/or food supply. Asbestos was widely used from the 1950s to 1970s. Problems arise when the material becomes old and crumbly, releasing fibers into the air. Risks: Cancer, scarring of the lung tissue, Mesothelioma.In Australia asbestos exposure is predicted to result in 16,000 deaths from mesothelioma and 40,000 deaths from lung cancer.
