I believe my co-renter has recently started poisoning/ drugging some of my food. After eating a few things such as my salad dressing which I didn’t have any reaction to just after buying it, now makes my heart pound my left arm pulse with my heart beat, weird feeling in my stomach, hard to concentrate and ends with pains, ringing and a headache. It starts about 20min. after eating and goes away in about 2 hours. I thought it was all in my head so I tried the salad dressing again, same symptoms. This also happens when I use my mustard.. If I had to speculate what it is, I would say: 1. old co-rente…

Hi Everyone, I have an assignment where I have to label the areas of the brain in the right place on the brain map. Based on what I know, I attempted the assignment on my own. I am a little frustrated because the labels seem a bit off from the locations displayed on the brain map. Can someone please check my work to see if all of the areas of the brain that are labeled on this brain map are marked correctly? If some things need to be switched, can you please tell me which. I am panicking being that my assignment is due tomorrow. I would truly appreciate if someone could help me out. Thank you and Kind regards.

Clinical trials as of now are very long and expensive, it takes $1-2 bln and 8-10 years for a promising molecule to be tested and approved. MAny promising drugs cannot be tested in trials because they cannot be patented. Are there any potential ways to shorten the process and make it less expensive?

Don't ask why I'm asking this I know that in ARS gut lining is destroyed together with bone marrow which is IIRC main reason of death in ARS. What are effects of gamma radiation on other cell types such as muscles, nerve cells, and internal organ tissues?

So a few days ago I started drinking alcohol, the 3% alcohol cocktail by Suntory that is sold in the market. After continuously drinking for a month, I have not caught a cold since. And there really isn't any other symptoms besides no longer afraid of heat and sneezes from time to time, it probably killed too many germs. Anyway, there was this myth that drinking eggnog cures cold. So, this is unconfirmed medical advice, meaning you shouldn't try it when you are sick. If the cold is not going to kill me I might experiment with the cold by drinking that 3% alcohol. But I want to hear what you experts think. I mean drinking alcohol goes into the whole body and bloodstream in…

Hi I'm 15, 5"9 and am about 159 pounds. I wanted to know how i can get taller naturally to at least 6 foot so I visited some websites. Few of the sites I visited are: http://www.heightmax.com http://www.heightboosting.com http://www.growtaller.net http://www.tobetaller.com All of these sites seem fake and dangerous but I'm not sure. Have any of you used these or have betteer suggestions to grow taller?

If a rigid external distraction device is being used on a 18 year old with repaired cleft lip and palate for a 12mm distraction of the upper jaw, how will it affect speech. Will there be hyper nasality? By what percentage will the speech improve?

https://sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S073567570800332X Maybe I am reading it wrong, but is this implying that she is allergic to sodium chloride? Since it mentions in the full text she did not react to the intravenous dextrose solution so now I am curious. It seems to imply this woman has an IgE mediated reaction to Na+ and Cl-, but we're told that such allergies are impossible since sodium is just an atom and you can't be allergic to glucose, oxygen, etc because they are too small to bind to antibodies, so I am very confused by what I have just read and I want you guys thoughts on it.

I almost ingested something that smelled and tasted toxic and similar to nail polish remover in food my wife bought using a food delivery app and then placed in the fridge. I knew there was something off before I even put it in my mouth when I saw a lot of liquid beneath the food that shouldn’t be there. The second I placed it in my mouth I knew immediately something was very wrong; I spit it out immediately and rinsed thoroughly. Only then did I sniff the food and realized there was something in there that is not meant to be ingested. Now I would like to know what the substance is. The reason I’m posting about this here is it seems there are some people here who are know…

What is in gluten that is bad for humans, and why is it found in so many food products?

Thank you for posting links to actual information. I created a thread a while ago that received the generalized "Go talk to your doc." responses , I mean I wouldn't have asked for information elsewhere if my doctors where more informative. Or on the other hand maybe I wanted to be more informed before I talk to my doctors. Anyway thank you for helpful information, I wish more people would had out tools instead of advice (unless it's advice with tools... BONUS!)

Humans wiped out mosquitoes (in one small lab test) If we could eliminate a species, should we? Science News. BY SUSAN MILIUS, 8:26AM, DECEMBER 17, 2018 "For the first time, humans have built a set of pushy, destructive genes that infiltrated small populations of mosquitoes and drove them to extinction. But before dancing sleeveless in the streets, let’s be clear. This extermination occurred in a lab in mosquito populations with less of the crazy genetic diversity that an extinction scheme would face in the wild. The new gene drive, constructed to speed the spread of a damaging genetic tweak to virtually all offspring, is a long way from practical use. Yet this test…

Hello Everyone I am new here and I am so very sorry if this is indeed the wrong area for this. If it is the wrong area please suggest the correct area I know a lot of conflicting information exists on the topic of B17 or Amygdalin But I have seen a man's health descend rapidly after discontinuing use and die of cancer and I have seen evidence of major remission of cancer with the use of oral B17 products that was harvested naturally and no other medicine was used The extraction of Amygdalin appears to be extremely basic and easy however I am hoping someone better educated than I can help me to understand in what state Amygdalin is safe for Intravenous use. …

Something scary and depressing and its certainly not putting me into the frame of mind I want to be in. Apparently, Poland is a country in which the ratio of men suicide to women suicide is highest in the world and the difference in men/women life span is largest from the 35 countries studied. If anyone knows how to debunk this or at least has some tips on how to stop thinking about it I’d be much obliged. Source: https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(16)32381-9/fulltext I would also like to disclose my „hidden agenda” beforehand so I will not be accused of anything fishy if/when this topic evolves. As the subject I’m bringi…

What has caused STIs to reach epidemic and record levels in 2018? Is it the water we drink? The air we breathe? Dirty toilet seats? (CNN)Rates of syphilis, gonorrhea and chlamydia have climbed for the fourth consecutive year in the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Tuesday at the National STD Prevention Conference in Washington. Last year, nearly 2.3 million US cases of these sexually transmitted diseases were diagnosed, according to preliminary data. That's the highest number ever reported nationwide, breaking the record set in 2016 by more than 200,000 cases, acco…

Another word that is pronounced inconsistently. How do you pronounce it? Fun-guy ? Fun-ghee ? Fun-jee ? Fun-j-eye ? Or some other way?

Ok so here recently I’ve been experiencing like a slight numbness but more of a tingling type feeling in my arms and legs. I’m only 20 6’6 200 lb’s exercise every now and then pretty fit. Not diabetic or anything like that pretty healthy..so far. Now I did try to look up the symptoms and the closest thing I could find that matched it was anxiety,the only thing that didn’t match there was Nasuea. It’s been going on for a few days now and I’m starting to get very worried it could be something serious. Could anyone help and give me some type of reasoning why it’s continuing?

( I have posted this in the biology section recently, but think this is a better section for it.) I've done a lot of research and there is no all in cure for it. Here are things that may have to do with it. Sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system pelvic floor muscles anxiety kegels/reverse kegels I've been to those forums where people have this problem and try to resolve it, I thought maybe if I want into a more science educated forum, I'd find better answers if someone looked deep into what may be the problem. -If it was anxiety/stress or the nervous system then alcohol should completely get rid of it during "Drunkness" but…

why is it that gray hair has no cure? its just like aids, it has no darn cure? why is that? why would that be the case? would anyone happen to know? rsvp. thank you.

Why and/or how is it that epidural hematomas are able to cross the midline, while, at the same time, having an expansion that is stopped at suture lines, whereas subdural hematomas are unable to cross the midline due to having an expansion that is stopped by (cranial) dural septa? A source with some images illustrating the explanation for why would be helpful, but not necessary. Many thanks, in advance.

What with the current war on salt, I was wondering if a simple way to reduce sodium would be to just drink lots of water. As I understand it, it will reduce your electrolytes of which sodium is one of the major ones. What with all the people who are dehydrated it might have other beneficial side-effects, rather than the more dubious side effects "normal" drugs have.
