J Clin Invest. 1986 Jan;77(1):7-12. Oral intake of phosphorus can determine the serum concentration of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D by determining its production rate in humans. Portale AA, et al. Changes in the oral intake of phosphorus could induce the reported changes in the serum concentration of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25-(OH)2D) by inducing changes in its production rate [...]
by Barry Groves Source If you want to get ahead, get a brain There is overwhelming evidence that we can not be a vegetarian species. In 1972 the publication of two independent investigations confirmed this.[1] [2] They concerned fats. About half our brain and nervous system is composed of complicated, long-chain, fatty acids. These are [...]
J Strength Cond Res. 2004 May;18(2):306-10. Combined creatine and sodium bicarbonate supplementation enhances interval swimming. Mero AA, Keskinen KL, Malvela MT, Sallinen JM. This study examined the effect of simultaneous supplementation of creatine and sodium bicarbonate on consecutive maximal swims. Sixteen competitive male and female swimmers completed, in a randomized order, 2 different treatments (placebo [...]
Eur J Med Res. 2003 Aug 20;8(8):381-7. Dietary fatty acids and immune reactions in synovial tissue. Adam O. Inflammation of the synovial membrane in rheumatoid arthritis is mediated by specialized cells necessary for immune response. The most prominent features are the accumulation of mononuclear phagocytes, lymphocytes and leukocytes in the proliferating tissue. Pro-inflammatory and proliferative [...]
Gershom Zajicek’s Website Even the liver and adrenal gland are now known to be continuously renewed by “cell streaming,” though at a slower rate than the skin, conjunctiva, and intestine. -Ray Peat, PhD Choosing the right foods, the right atmosphere, the right mental and physical activities, and finding the optimal rhythms of light, darkness, and [...]
Also see: The Brain – Estrogen’s Harm and Progesterone’s Protection Gelatin, Glycine, and Metabolism In the spring, with increased day length, the brains of song-birds grow, with an increased proliferation of cells in the part of the brain involved in singing. The production of progesterone increases in most animals in the spring, and it is [...]
Riv Biol. 2002 Jan-Apr;95(1):35-61. Towards a morphogenetic perspective on cancer. Aranda-Anzaldo A. The purpose of this paper is to present a critique of the current view that reduces cancer to a cellular problem caused by specific gene mutations and to propose, instead, that such a problem might become more intelligible, if it is understood as [...]
Science 23 January 1976: Vol. 191 no. 4224 pp. 293-295 What retains water in living cells? GN Ling, CL Walton Three types of evidence are presented showing that the retention of cell water does not necessarily depend on the possession of an intact cell membrane. The data agree with the concept that water retention in [...]
