Thalassemia
2008-04-26 12:47:01
My old fren, Nai, send me an sms just now asking for what is meant by Thalassemia. I guess he's a little bit worry as he's going to become a father very soon. So Nai, hope this simple article from Mayo clinic and diagrams can give you an insight of what is Thalassemia all about. other readers might find it's useful.read on..IntroductionThalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by less hemoglobin and fewer red blood cells in your body than normal. Defects in the genes that make hemoglobin cause thalassemia. Hemoglobin is the substance in red blood cells that allows the cells to carry oxygen from your lungs to the other parts of your body. Because of low hemoglobin and a low amount of red blood cells, thalassemia results in anemia.If you have a mild form of thalassemia, you ma


The Importance of Negative Hydrogen Ion
2008-04-25 15:29:35
Hydrogen is one of the primordial elements that fuels the development of all life on Earth. Provided by the Sun as rays of light, human beings cannot live without Hydrogen. While science refers to us as carbon-based life forms, man is actually a Silica-based and Hydrogen-based life form. All life on Earth is Hydrogen-based. When plants absorb sunlight, they store negatively-charged Hydrogen ions through the process of photosynthesis. When you eat unprocessed plants, your body's cells utilize the nutrients in those plants and, perhaps more importantly, the electrical charge of the Hydrogen ions in those plants. When your body burns Hydrogen and Oxygen, it generates the energy you need for every single process of life. As a matter of fact, nearly every life form on the planet utilizes Hydrog

Mentalk-the miraculous candy!
2008-04-27 21:53:01
IngredientsThe main ingredient of Mentalk is Cynomorium songaricum, which is also known as “Ginseng In The Desert”. Since centuries ago, it has been medically recognised as “Herb of Longevity”. Cynomorium songaricum grows in desert with unique geographic terraine and extreme climate, where the difference in temperature between day and night achieves more than 100oC (the highest is 82.3oC, the lowest is -20oC). Thus, this species is impossible to be cultivated by human until now.Cynomorium songaricum is rare and very precious among the Chinese traditional herbs, as recorded more than centuries ago in Compendium of Materia Medica: Cynomorium songaricum is therapeutic in sexual enhancement, nourishes bone and muscle, prevents dryness, moisturizes the intestine and relaxes bowels.

Alkaline or Acidic Food?
2008-04-30 19:41:46
As you know, holistic medicine not only deals with your mind,spirit, aura etc, but also concerning food that you eat.-you are what you eat!- one aspect of food that you all should know is whether the food is alkaline or acidic. this simple effort actually can bring tremendous change to your health! "Just about every condition I can think of, from arthritis to diabetes to cancer, is associated with acidity".- Dr. Robert Atkins (noted author, health and diet expert).The basic chemistry of pH balance Back in high school chemistry, we learned about pH: acids had low numbers, alkalines had high numbers, and a pH of 7.0 was neutral. And it all meant absolutely nothing in terms of day-to-day life.It now turns out that we have a better shot at long-term health if our body's pH is neutral or slight


Law of Attraction
2008-05-02 15:23:06
I've just finished reading a very interesting book by Micheal J Losier-The Law of attraction. I suggest everyone of you should know something about "Law of Attraction ". the concept of it can be applied in many areas of our life-samada you nak jadi kaya, terkenal, bebas dari penyakit etc. just apply it!What is "law of attraction"?The ‘Law of Attraction’ states that whatever is broadcast out into the universe is joined by (or attracted to) energies that are of an equal frequency, resonance, or vibration.-dalam bahasa yang lebih mudah-'like attracts like' atau 'what you give you get back' (mcm lagu Scorpion pulak)Sebenarnya bila kita fikirkan (atau hasratkan) tentang sesuatu, akan ada 'energy' atau 'vibration' yang akan keluar dari badan kita, dan 'energy' yang bersifat sama juga yang aka

Vitamin studies: Rebuttal to Allegation That Certain Vitamins May Shorter Lifespan
2008-05-04 22:09:34
For those with 'scientific' and 'evidence-based' brains who rely on 'studies' when thinking to advise patients on taking vitamins , please read this article from Life Extension, a non-profit and research-based organisation on vitamins and anti-aging medicine..-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------It is almost inconceivable to think that for the greater part of the 20th century, a “scientific” debate raged as to whether cigarette smoking was dangerous. An even longer running controversy focused on whether food choices (i.e. diet) had any effect on how long people lived. It was not until the later part of the 20th century that the FDA admitted that high saturated fat diets increase heart attack risk.Today’s unanimous recommendation t

What causes cancer?
2008-05-07 22:49:56
Doctors often cannot explain why one person develops cancer and another does not. But research shows that certain risk factors increase the chance that a person will develop cancer. These are the most common risk factors for cancer: -Growing older-Tobacco-Sunlight-Ionizing radiation-Certain chemicals and other substances-Some viruses and bacteria-Certain hormones-Family history of cancer-Alcohol-Poor diet, lack of physical activity, or being overweight Many of these risk factors can be avoided. Others, such as family history, cannot be avoided. People can help protect themselves by staying away from known risk factors whenever possible.If you think you may be at risk for cancer, you should discuss this concern with your doctor. You may want to ask about reducing your risk and about a sched

Probably it's better if we understand what is meant by cancer- from the basic..Defining Cancer Cancer is a term used for diseases in which abnormal cells divide without control and are able to invade other tissues. Cancer cells can spread to other parts of the body through the blood and lymphatic systems.Cancer is not just one disease but many diseases. There are more than 100 different types of cancer. Most cancers are named for the organ or type of cell in which they start - for example, cancer that begins in the colon is called colon cancer; cancer that begins in basal cells of the skin is called basal cell carcinoma.Cancer types can be grouped into broader categories.
