It is stated by Newkarm that general health requires that the total intake of all fats, especially animal fats is reduced. Fatty deposits in the arteries and gallstones are to a large extent made up of cholesterol (19). When foods high in fat content are ea ...

... brain that controls memory, thinking, are damaged, interrupting the passage of messages between cells. The cells develop distinctive changes that are called neuritic plaques (clusters of degenerating nerve cell ends) and neurofibrillary tangles (masses of twisted filaments which accumulate in previously health nerve cells). The cortex (thinking center) of the brain shrinks (atrophies), The spaces in the center of the brain become enlarged, also reducing surface area in the brain. What are the symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease? Alzheimer's Disease is a dementing illness which leads to ...

... to distinguish between the accepted use of certain drugs and the abuse of those drugs. Alcoholic beverages have been used by people in many societies for thousands of years. Yet alcohol is one of the most widely abused drugs. The regular use of certain drugs causes dependence and the use of the drug becomes a habit that is hard to break. Drug dependence is both psychological and physical. Psychological dependence involves a craving for the psychological experience a drug provides. Physical dependence means that the user builds a tolerance to the drug. When this happens the user needs more and more of the dr ...

... activity by making it easy to get rid of an unwanted pregnancy. They feel that it is wrong to have premarital sex. These people feel that every child is wanted by someone. They view adoption as a logical alternative. Researchers have said that if you give the woman the unrestricted right to kill her unborn daughter, one had better be prepared to some day give the daughter the unrestricted right to kill the aged mother. Many people that are against s are raised in the church or are religious. They believe that is murder, and that God does not approve of this. There is a book called “The Hand of God“, ...

... from those that govern conscious experience. Under the influence of the unconscious, thoughts and feelings that belong together may be shifted or displaced out of context; two disparate ideas or images may be condensed into one; thoughts may be dramatized in the form of images rather than expressed as abstract concepts; and certain objects may be represented symbolically by images of other objects, although the resemblance between the symbol and the original object may be vague or farfetched. The laws of logic, indispensable for conscious thinking, do not apply to these unconscious mental productions. Recogn ...

... to 141,000, for 1,900 to 4,800 deaths during or immediately after parturition, and for 1,200 to 2,200 death from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (7). Maternal smoking has been implicated in long term deficits in infant mental development and adverse behavioral problems in children such as attention disorder. Nicotine crosses the human placenta and has direct effects on the developing fetus. Pre-clinical studies suggest that maternal smoking during pregnancy produces changes on the offspring's neural functioning, including reductions in uptake of serotonin, alterations in dopaminergic systems, alterations in peripheral ...

... system. Horses living in areas where Lyme disease is common may be bitten by a Ixodes spp tick, also known as a deer tick, that is infected with the Borrelia burgdorferi. This may cause the horse to contract Lyme disease. Clinical signs of Lyme Disease are apparent in less than 10% of horses that are infected. First discovered in Connecticut in 1975, Lyme Disease has been reported in 45 states, however the disease is mainly clustered in the mid-Atlantic, northeast, North Central and pacific coastal regions of the United States. Ninety-four percent of the human cases are reported from California, Connectic ...

... to occour. Starch is a large molecule, a polymer of glucose. Dextrin and maltose are intermediate products in the digestion of starch. Some foods contain carbohydrates in the form of sugars. These are the simple sugars, such as sucrose (cane sugar) or lactose (milk sugar), that must be processed into smaller units. Occasionally, the simplest form of sugar, a monosaccharide such as glucose, is present in food. These monosaccharides do not require digestion. Proteins are polymers composed of one or more amino acids. When they are digested, they produce free amino acids and ammonia. Vitamins are a vital pa ...

... This chemical is only needed in minute amounts, but is often eaten in every meal. In the body, cholesterol is responsible for the stability of plasma membranes of cells, and hormones are produced from it. If consumed at higher rate then needed it is stored in the tunica interna, the innermost layer, of blood vessels. As it is stored it starts to build up eventually clogging the vessel. As a result of this all cells feed by the vessel die because of a lack of oxygen. If this condition is found early, it can be corrected with surgical procedures or, in some minor cases, corrective procedures. Surgical proce ...

... world. Your two hemispheres are as different from each other as, oh, Micheal Wilson and Shirley Maclean. The left brain controls the right side of the body (this is reversed in about half of the 15 percent of the population that is left-handed) and, in essence, is logical analytical, judgemental and verbal. It's interested in the bottom line, in being efficent. The right brain controls the left side of the body and leans more to the creative, the intuitive. It is concerned more with the visual and emotional side of life. Most people, if they thought about it, would identify more with their left brain ...
