Hello everyone ... ^ـــ^ I am a new member to this forum .. I hope that you can help me .. my Q is .. : can we used the bacteria to isolate the protein or amino acid in human or animals ? and I want reference about human milk ,, please ..! ( biochemical information ) thanks .. ^^

So I 'm talking to this guy on MSN and this want he is saying .. Other guy he is saying My quetion why do people oppose chemo or radiation? Has for drugs that can tell cells what to do that does not exit.Cancer and organs going bad is a cellular problem.No drug exit or the know how to manipulate anything at a cellular level. But was reading on new technology called proton radiation very effective and little side effects but way to cosly .Only 2 or 3 places in the US has it do to it is very costly.Other new technology nanowire that is put in the body over the cancer that gives out UV radiation or gets very hot.These are new technology and will not b…

When the government gives health advice to its citizens, you would expect that that advice would be purely scientific and objective. But in fact it is not, and instead, citizens are advised only to do those things to benefit their health which will also force them to curtail their spontaneous pleasures. So all scientific health advice has to pass through a filter of Puritanism before it reaches the public. One example is that a large body of data now demonstrates that cigarette smoking powerfully protects people against Alzheimer's Disease. If government health information were objective rather than Puritanical, every cigarette packet would display the notice that …

Does anybody have any explanation for why low does Naltrexone would be a good treatment for cancer, or not. any ideas?

From the New York Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/30/nyregion/30medschools.html Apparently a small number of students are admitted to Mount Sinai each year without the usual requirement of organic chemistry, physics, and the MCAT. These students still have to take a crash summer course on organic chemistry, but instead study the humanities in their junior and senior years prior to entering medical school. This quote was kinda jarring: Ouch. But they still have to take all the same courses once they get into medical school. If they don't learn the subjects, they fail just like anybody else. The feeling seems to be that they'll be more in touch w…

If the War on Drugs has a rational purpose, it must be to prevent the harm to human health and life which drug use can cause, and also to prevent the disruption of normal consciousness and brain function by drugs which can make people more prone to dangerous accidents or irresponsible behavior. But diabetics using insulin create exactly the same social problems as the War on Drugs addresses. Because the insulin requirements of the diabetic body change spontaneously and unpredictably in response to hormal variations, stress, changes in gastric emptying rates with different kinds of food and degrees of neuropathy, and subclinical infections, the amount of insulin requi…

At many universities and on various hospital ethical committees, you will find that the resident 'medical ethicists,' who have to have an extremely sophisticated understanding of the legal, philosophical, psychological, and social issues involved in the ethical problems arising in medicine, have training only in medicine. While they may have the technical expertise from their training to know what can be done and what can't be done with the available medical technology, it is typically the case that years of purely technical training -- memorizing biochemic pathways rather than thinking creatively, devoting all their energies to competing fanatically to get into medical …

Fish and other sea creatures extract oxygen from the water to survive, and the human lungs can do this as well, although the amount of oxygen extracted would be inadequate for higher brain functions. I have seen it proposed that if a human were to drown in fresh water, and the person were able to overcome through some profound self-discipline the natural shock response at drawing water into the lungs and displacing their air content, then that person could continue living at the bottom of the lake or stream, provided it were warm enough. I wonder what other aspects of physiology would complicate this effort? E.g., the nature of human kidney function has been descr…

Looks like a cure for HIV around the corner. http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/news/333938,hiv-antibodies-found-vaccine.html

So, I came up with a crazy idea. Actually, my brain put together some random information, data, and combined it into an interesting idea of which I partook of it to be a fun, interesting idea. Would it be possible to insert the GFP gene into flora of the human body (gut, skin, etc) and have them live on the body, reproduce, and glow? So, in general, my idea is like this: 1. Take some bacteria from my mouth 2. Insert the GFP gene into them 3. Swish the bacteria back into my mouth 4. Smile and walk away Now if I spit on the ground in a room, wait maybe 20 seconds, and then turn off the lights, then my spit should glow. Right? If that's not right, isn't t…

Prior to the establishment of the precursor organizations of the FDA at the beginning of the 20th century, Americans could buy any substance they wanted to treat their diseases as they chose. After the FDA came into full control of medicine, people could only access drugs and treatment modalities to ameliorate or cure disease if the FDA had already tested them first to determine whether they were 'safe and effective.' Today the process to establish safety and efficacy has become so painstaking that it usually requires 15 years of testing and about $300,000,000 of investment to bring a new drug to market. But do these standards of safety and efficacy, which prohibit …

Is there a dedicated branch of science that researches the physiological and neurological effects that astrophysical patterns and processes may have on living organisms that exist on Earth? Is this type of research considered a subcategory of astrobiology?

I read the true story of a physician, the chief of pathology at a large hospital, who was infamous for his persistent, hacking cough all through his career. He stubbornly refused to have it checked, however, but he was allowed to continue his hospital work because of his status. Finally his colleagues prevailed on him to have a chest x-ray and a large carcinoma was found in his lung. He struggled with cancer therapy for less than a year and then died. When they were clearing out his employment records, they discovered the initial employment x-ray he had been required to have on being given his position. It showed a tumor in exactly the same spot as the tumor that kil…

--stem cell to repair damage organ/tissue --stem cell to grow new organ. --pig organ for transplant --artificial organ --organ grown in the lab Out of the above what do you see posable in 15 to 20 years.I say stem cell to repair damage organ/tissue and may be pig organ for transplant. Well stem cell to grow new organ and organ grown in the lab is still other 50 years out. Well artificial organ seem to be very very very hard to make .We have a artificial heart but it is used temporary and most people do not live more than a year on it.Has for a artificial liver and kidney not even close to a prototype it be very very long time before we have artificial organs. …

There is an sicence gap that just being identified. It will be an potential topic for further research. Those who are interested in it, I hope the information will be useful to you. --- Life Researcher --- Download link for the proposal http://rapidshare.com/files/401057993/Research_Proposal_1.pdf.html

I want to propose, provocatively, a conservation of disease theorem analogous to the conservation of energy principle, which states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can only be changed in form. The conservation of disease theorem states that disease can never be cured, but it can only be changed in form, and the altered forms of disease are now labelled 'the burden of therapy.' Thus in diabetes, the disease untreated would itself produce death from metabolic acidosis, or if the blood sugar were inadequately controlled, it would cause neurological and vascular complications. Medicine cannot cure, but can only treat the disease, and the treatment sim…

i was wondering about the relation between the tyroid gland and diabetes

(i originally posted this on a gun forum i go to alot but i figured some of you in the medican field might want to see it also....so some of the stuff might only make sense to people involved in shooting) but if you have any questions dont hesitate to ask also i think the mods might have to approve the pics first but if thats the case you can view them on the forum i originally posted them on. you do NOT have to sign up for anything to view http://www.xdtalk.com/forums/xdtalk-chatter-box/151482-well-crap-i-shot-myself-foot-not-too-graphic.html ok so i was shooting my walther p22 and i went to de-cock it by holding the hammer and pulling the trigger and then s…

If you're lost in the wilderness with no clue where you are or where the nearest civilization is, can you eat grass for sustenance until help arrives?

Muslims world wide observe total fasting (no food or water) between dawn to sunset in the month of Ramadan. They do so not for losing weight or any medical benefit, but as it is ordained in Quran which says. "O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you, as it was prescribed for those before you (i.e. Jews, & Christians) so that you may (learn) self-restraint."( 2:183 ) According to Islamic Laws, children below the age of 12, sick patients, travelers, and women who are menstruating or nursing a baby are exempt from fasting. In addition to staying away from food or water for the whole day, they are asked to stay away from sex, smoking or misconduct during t…

:confused:Hi out there everyone! Just joined today, and have been curious about this subject for a while. I hope this is the appropriate forum for the question! I am a 34 year old man. I have been a pack-a-day cigarette smoker for 13 or 14 years and an almost daily 4 to 8 cups a day coffee drinker for 10 or 12 years and have noticed that in that time, I have scarcely remembered half a dozen of my dreams. The few I have remembered have only been of fragmented images or three-to-five-second sequences of activity, with only one or two clearly remembered full-length dream "shows" as I call them. I've been told that I can't possibly have gone that long without drea…

Hi: A 23-year-old slim and athletic patient is admitted to ER with extremely sharp and intense pain localized deep in the middle of his chest. The pain is steady and does not radiate anywhere, it just stay in the middle of his chest. He says it feels like "a knife in my heart". No nausea/vomiting, no shortness of breath, no feeling of chest pressure or tightness. According to patient, the pain started of as barely-noticeable but gradually became excruciating as an hour passed. Type of pain [sharp] and location [middle of chest] remained the same throughout the episode. Upon entry to ER, heart rate is only 35 bpm. Heart beats are very strong and cause patient's ch…

After watching many programs on discovery health like trauma in ER ,code blue ,mystery diagnosis so on.Reading books and blogs so on. Doctors say it could be infection or not or say it looks like a infection not sure what type of infection.Or they say ya white count is up or do a LP spine.Or they say he has the symptoms of a infection . I'm confused :eek:I thought they do blood work to find out if it is a infection or not and type of infection .And I thought doctors do not give meds to they know what type of infection . what is the confusion if it is a infection or not or a confusion of what type of confusion . If I got sick and go to ER and the doctor sho…

Some say nerve cells ,brain cells ,heart cells or the spine does not repair or divide and some say it takes 50 years or more to repair or divide. Why such confusion. Other debate among science if myth or not or where it got stated is stress , anger ,frustration can cause ulcers or hernia. Also say hair loss ,thin hair ,going bold ,gray hair is do to stress , anger or frustration can cause it. Why such a confusion among scientists.
