Snapshots of Life: The Birth of New Neurons

Snapshots of Life: The Birth of New Neurons Posted on January 25, 2018 by Dr. Francis Collins After a challenging day at work or school, sometimes it may seem like you are down to your last brain cell. But have no fear—in actuality, the brains of humans and other mammals have the potential to produce new neurons throughout life.Continue reading “Snapshots of Life: The Birth of New Neurons”

MSM powder benefits – Alzheimer is a sulfur deficiency

Co-enzyme Q10 locks with MSM, which means that in order for the body to fully utilize this nutrient, it must have MSM(sulfur) with it. Pantothenic acid, Vitamins A, D, and E, inter-enzymes, amino acids, selenium, calcium, germanium, collagnol and dismuzyme are just some of the things we know the body does not utilize properly unless it has MSM to lock with. A lot of the vitamins we take go through the body without being fully used. With more MSM in the body, vitamins can be utilized more effectively and therefore become much more beneficial.

Scientists were able to turn pro-inflammatory cells into anti-inflammatory cells

Summary: According to a Nature study, researchers developed a method to reprogram specific T cells in the immune system. Scientists were able to turn pro-inflammatory cells into anti-inflammatory cells, and vice versa, to boost or suppress the immune system. Researchers believe their findings could have significant impact on developing treatments for autoimmune diseases.

Writing heals the body

By Claudia Hammond In 1986 the psychology professor James Pennebaker discovered something extraordinary, something which would inspire a generation of researchers to conduct several hundred studies. He asked students to spend 15 minutes writing about the biggest trauma of their lives or, if they hadn’t experienced a trauma, their most difficult time. They were toldContinue reading “Writing heals the body”

Missing link between gut and brain discovered with big implications for disease

Summary: Researchers have identified immune cells in the membranes around the brain that could be a ‘missing link’ in the gut-brain axis. The immune cells also appear to have a positive impact on recovery following spinal cord injury. Source: University of Virginia. A rare and powerful type of immune cell has been discovered in theContinue reading “Missing link between gut and brain discovered with big implications for disease”

Mapping Genes That Increase Lifespan

Comprehensive study finds 238 genes that affect aging in yeast cells. Following an exhaustive, ten-year effort, scientists at the Buck Institute for Research on Aging and the University of Washington have identified 238 genes that, when removed, increase the replicative lifespan of S. cerevisiae yeast cells. This is the first time 189 of these genesContinue reading “Mapping Genes That Increase Lifespan”

Why does our skin causing us to age?

Epigenetics studies genetic effects notencoded in the DNA sequence of an organism, hence the prefix epi- (Greek: επί– over, outside of, around).[1][2] Such effects on cellular and physiological phenotypic traits may result from external or environmental factors that switch genes on and off and affect how cells express genes.[3][4] These alterations may or may notContinue reading “Why does our skin causing us to age?”

Do you lose nerve cells when stressed?

Chronic stress has the ability to flip a switch in stem cells that turns them into a type of cell that inhibits connections to the prefrontal cortex, which would improve learning and memory, but lays down durable scaffolding linked to anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Kaufer concludes that moderate or ‘good stress’—such as studyingContinue reading “Do you lose nerve cells when stressed?”

Cancer cells hiding in glands and organs

Understanding Autoimmune Diseases The mechanism of mycoplasma infections lets us understand the true nature of autoimmune diseases. During the acute initial stage of a bacterial infection the immune system eliminates most of the invading microbes but some of them manage to survive by hiding inside the cells of a vulnerable organ or gland. They mayContinue reading “Cancer cells hiding in glands and organs”

Periodic raw food cleanses degenerating cells

Degenerating Blood All cancers, autoimmune diseases and chronic infections seem to be associated with degenerating blood. This becomes apparent from the weak orgone charge of red blood cells and the presence of pleomorphic microbes in both plasma and erythrocytes. The weaker the blue colour and the more widespread and evolved the pleomorphics, the more isContinue reading “Periodic raw food cleanses degenerating cells”

Parsley, Natto, green tea and kiwi clean clogged arteries

PQQ can clean your clogged arteries. PQQ has been found in all plant foods analyzed to date. PQQ-rich foods include parsley, green peppers, kiwi fruit, papaya, fermented soybeans (Natto) and tofu. These foods contain about 2-3 mcg per 100 grams. Green tea provides about the same amount per 4 oz serving. Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) has beenContinue reading “Parsley, Natto, green tea and kiwi clean clogged arteries”
