Human Knowledge: Foundations and Limits
If the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics didn't guarantee that entropy effectively always increases, then life would perhaps evolve runaway godlike powers, and those gods might not value extropy so much. Digital technologies have made media reproduction and distribution asymptotically free, and so archaic copyright doctrine finds itself opposed to uses which cannot be prevented
Joseph Arcita: A Guide to Ketosis
http://josepharcita.blogspot.com/2011/03/guide-to-ketosis.htmlSince 1961, a growing tendency in type II diabetes and obesity problems has been observed due to a progressive substitution of the traditional protein and fat-based diet by a diet with higher carbohydrate content. So we can affirm that healthier fats like monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats (MUFA and PUFA) have been replaced by more pernicious fat like saturated and, above all, the artificial trans fats
PEMFHealing Blog! PEMF8000 DISCOVERY
PEMF and tendonitis The department of rheumatology at Adden brookes Hospital carried out investigations into the use of PMFT for the treatment of persistent rotator cuff tendonitis. The body is an environment composed of both chemical and electrical fields and at any one time we are only as healthy as our cells can be in that environment
Raw Food Life - the Science of Raw Food!
This has been very exciting for me and seems to be opening up a new understanding of how and why raw, live organic foods are not just powerful nutritionally but may actually contribute to the transformation of consciousness itself! Imagine how disappointing it is to discover the Nestle is having similar thoughts about cookies! In this study, which is published in Physical Review Letters, the scientists studied how water molecules interact with lipids, which are fat-soluble molecules such as fats and oils. I probably spent twice as long on every smoothie, from having to chop ingredients before adding them to the blender to having to stand there and shake the blender to get things to mix

Molecules with Silly or Unusual Names
If you devise the full synthesis of one of these, have you made a complete and utter bastadin? Thanks to Neil Edwards and Jan Linders for info on these molecules. I'll leave this as a challenge to synthetic chemists to first try to make this compound, and then to try to get its name in the title of a paper! Also, the related molecule phosphole (which just replaces As with P) is quite amusing if you are a French speaker, since it's pronounced the same as 'fausse folle'
Cell Death and Disease - Cancer metabolism: current perspectives and future directions
Epidemiological studies have highlighted that the population having low sugar, low fat culinary traditions present lower incidence of cancer.98 Furthermore, studies in mice have showed that feeding the animal a low carbohydrate, high protein diet, not only decreased cancer development but also reduced tumor growth.99 Links between diabetes and cancer have also been established. This causes mTOR-mediated energetic stress and cell death.44 This indicates that loss of TSC, like loss of p53, promotes synthetic lethality with blockade of glycolysis.We have discussed above examples of signaling pathways that promote synthetic lethality with metabolic inhibitors

In 1856, a man named Bigo sought Pasteur's help because he was having problems at his distillery, which produced alcohol from sugar beetroot fermentation. In contrast, in the polluted containers, the ones containing lactic acid, he observed "much smaller cells than the yeast." Pasteur's finding showed that there are two types of fermentation: alcoholic and lactic acid
Cellular Respiration
Because there are a number of enzymes and steps involved in forming porphyrin rings, there are a number of possible points in the process where genetic defects could occur. Out of many possible types of fermentation processes, two of the most common types are lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation (other types of fermentation such as methanol fermentation and acetone fermentation also exist)
He stressed the importance of good ventilation, cleanliness of sailor's bodies, clean bedding, below deck fumigation, fresh water by distilling sea water, and the consumption of citrus fruits to prevent and cure scurvy. Their findings were published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (July 2013 issue).2 The researchers said that for those who went a step further and had more than five portions per day, there appeared to be no additional benefits in terms of longer lifespans
Between Succinic Acid and Fumaric Acid, the molecular shifting releases not enough energy to make ATP or NADH outright, but instead this energy is captured by a new energy carrier, Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). Yeast, when under anaerobic conditions, convert glucose to pyruvic acid via the glycolysis pathways, then go one step farther, converting pyruvic acid into ethanol, a C-2 compound
Why is ATP an important molecule in metabolism
The signals depend on the number of ATP molecules within a cell because if the number is sufficient then the ATP molecules emit a signal that causes the cells to store the nutrients for later use as excess. On the other hand, if the cells are lacking in ATP molecules, then the ATP molecules already present in the cell will signal it to start converting the available nutrients to energy
