Marine phytoplankton are tiny open water sea plants, animals or bacteria with limited or no swimming ability that drift with the tides and currents of the oceans. They require sunlight to multiply and in high nutrient and right conditions they multiply rapidly.
Environmental microbiology is rich enough to feed some of the largest mammals on earth which are many species of whales including Blue, Bowhead, Baleen, Grey, Humpback, Right and the largest of all, whale sharks.
Dr Jerry Tennant is founder and Director of the Tennant Institute Of Integrative Medicine. Educated at Harvard University, he has over 15 years practice in Energetic Medicine treating thousands of terminally ill patients. Of all the products he has come across he had this to say of Marine Phytoplankton. Read the rest of this entry »
Usually, this is due to hereditary and environmental cause resulting abnormally that leads to high blood sugar levels. This is not a simple disease that can be treated immediately. A disease where pancreas(a part of digestive organ)is unable to secrete enough insulin. Diabetes, a disease that causes the body to metabolize sugar poorly, occurs when either the body attacks the cells producing insulin, the chemical that allows the metabolizing of sugar in the body's cells also known as (Type 1 diabetes) and the body's cells ignore insulin (Type 2 diabetes). They don't have any choice but to quit for the sweets because their health is at risk. They are hook to a medical condition known as diabetes.
TYPES OF DIABETES
The major treatment of this diabetes, even in its earliest stages, is the delivery of artificial insulin by means of injection combined with careful monitoring of blood glucose levels using blood testing monitors. At this point, insulin therapy is necessary to maintain normal or near normal glucose levels. As they enter the second and third trimesters, the more hormones are secreted since they are pregnant, body demands it; this however makes it more difficult for the insulin to help your cells absorb glucose. Extra effort for healthier lifestyle is necessary to fight this condition and win the battle for more productive and happier life. Increase of physical activity, decreasing carbohydrate intake, and losing weight will serve as preliminary treatment. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. This helps and assists insulin supplementation that may control further complication. Read the rest of this entry »

Many people see diet soda is an innocuous, harmless beverage that can’t possibly cause any harm to their waistline since it doesn’t have any calories. Think again.
Research published this summer in the medical journal Circulation shows that people who drink more than one soda a day — whether it’s regular or diet — have an almost 50 percent increased risk for metabolic syndrome, which doubles their risk for heart disease and diabetes.
Two years ago, a study at the University of Texas Health Science Center found that there was a 41 percent increase in the risk for being overweight for every single can of diet soda a person consumed daily.
But how can something with no calories increase the risk for obesity and heart disease?
There are several possible ways.
First, my own theory is that the sweet taste works in the brain to create a conditioned response. The body responds as it usually does to normal sugar — with insulin, the fat-storing hormone. Those circuits in the brain are pretty primitive and ancient, and they can’t immediately distinguish chemical fakery. As far as your brain is concerned, sweet means sugar. It’s entirely possible that physiologically, you would respond to aspartame in the same way as you would to table sugar. It’s only a theory, but it makes sense to me.
Second, sugar creates its own cravings. Just as a taste of rum creates an unstoppable craving in an alcoholic, it’s entirely possible that the taste of sweet, even if it’s fake, creates the same cascade of cravings in a carb addict that regular sugar does, leading to overeating and binging and all the rest of the reasons people put on weight.
Third, many people think that by drinking diet beverages they’re "saving" calories. They subconsciously allow themselves to eat more, figuring it’s not doing as much harm since they’re drinking a diet drink. The diet drink gives them subconscious "permission" to eat more.
What’s worse than making you fat, aspartame may be toxic. Aspartame is made primarily from three ingredients: aspartic acid, phenylalanine and methanol. Methanol, an alcohol, breaks down in the body to formaldehyde, a poison if there ever was one. Apologists for aspartame say that it doesn’t create enough formaldehyde in the body to cause any damage, but I’m not so sure. Exposing children to formaldehyde levels as low as .75 mg daily for several months has been shown to cause gradual toxicity. Plus, diet soda is frequently stored in hot warehouses, causing chemical breakdowns that went undetected in the original safety studies that looked at "ideal" conditions.
Soda is bad news, whether regular or diet. Period.
