A calcium channel blocker and Dilantin for seizures can create more seizures and cramps. Why would a doctor prescribed these two meds at the same time for an epilepsy patient? The epilepsy patient has no appetite and experiences more seizures and nausea. A statin medication was also prescribed without CoQ10 dietary supplement. Only families whoContinue reading “Epilepsy client on Dilantin and Amlodipine”

Crumb Rubber in artificial turf and other carcinogens
The Yale chemical analysis (see below) found 12 carcinogens in the synthetic turf tested. High temperatures cause crumb rubber infill to outgas at a higher rate. What is Crumb Rubber? Artificial turf that uses infill made from recycled tires (“crumb rubber”) contains a cocktail of toxic chemicals, including benzothiazole, carbon black, and heavy metals. As the Mt. Sinai Children’sContinue reading “Crumb Rubber in artificial turf and other carcinogens”
Over cooking, carcinogens and AGEs
All About Cooking & Carcinogens By Ryan Andrews Higher cooking temperatures can create chemical reactions among amino acids, creatines, and sugars — reactions that may produce dangerous compounds that can damage our DNA. We know that cooking food has some benefits: It can make food safer It can concentrate tastes and flavors It can reduceContinue reading “Over cooking, carcinogens and AGEs”
Pharmacogenetics
Pharmacogenetics is the study of inherited genetic differences in drug metabolic pathways which can affect individual responses to drugs, both in terms of therapeutic effect as well as adverse effects.[1] The term pharmacogenetics is often used interchangeably with the term pharmacogenomics which also investigates the role of acquired and inherited genetic differences in relation toContinue reading “Pharmacogenetics”
Cell type-specific properties and environment shape tissue specificity of cancer genes
One of the biggest mysteries in cancer research remains why mutations in certain genes cause cancer only at specific sites in the human body. The poor correlation between the expression level of a cancer gene and the tissues in which it causes malignant transformations raises the question of which factors determine the tissue-specific effects ofContinue reading “Cell type-specific properties and environment shape tissue specificity of cancer genes”
Carcinogens in corn and other products where Roundup weedkiller is used
An alarming new study finds that glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup weedkiller, is estrogenic and drives breast cancer cell proliferation in the parts-per-trillion range. Does this help explain the massive mammary tumors that the only long term animal feeding study on Roundup and GM corn ever performed recently found? by Sayer Ji/GreenMedInfo An alarmingContinue reading “Carcinogens in corn and other products where Roundup weedkiller is used”
