Solving Struvite, Bladder Stones, Canine and Feline UrolithiasisWysong provides a comprehensive naturalistic approach to the common problems of Struvite Crystals, Bladder Stones, Canine and Feline Urolithiasis.
Lipid FunctionsLipids are a concentrated source of energy providing more than double the amount on a per-weight basis than that contained in either carbohydrates or proteins. They help maintain body temperature through both their insulating effects and the heat generated from their oxidation.
Anabolic Hormones - A Two-Edged SwordHormones, such as anabolic steroids, are among the most dangerous of all drugs. Although they may produce short term changes, their long term consequences are a poor trade off.
Dietary ApproachThe goal of achieving optimal fatty acid nutrition must be approached by altering the fatty acid composition of the day-to-day meal pattern.
The Need To Change Lipid NutritureThere are likely factors other than just the incorporation of high levels of fish oils in the diet which have protective effects against cardiovascular disease.
Broad Health EffectsAlteration of the fatty acid content of the diet has much potential beyond just cardiovascular and inflammatory effects. The scientific literature is unveiling new diseases that may be altered, cured, or prevented with fatty acid therapy
AtherogenesisThe putative ability of fish oils to affect cardiovascular health has focused considerable attention on lipid nutriture. Investigations of societies consuming high levels of omega-3 and -9 oils as well as both prospective and retrospective scientific studies have demonstrated the increasing importance of dietary fats.
Lipid TransportOnce lipids are disassembled in the intestinal lumen and mucosal cell (enterocyte) they are reassembled in the mucosal cell as chylomicrons (CM's) and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL's). These vehicles contain primarily nonpolar cholesterol esters and triglycerides in the core and polar cholesterol, protein, and phospholipids in their membranes.
Lipids In InflammationInflammation is a broad term describing the body's reaction to injury. It is a necessary process enabling defense against toxins and pathogens, protection against further damage, and repair of tissue.
Fatty Acid PathwaysFatty acids exist in the body primarily as triglycerides and phospholipids. Phospholipids make up the bilipid membrane of cells and the membranes of organelles within the cytoplasm.
Essential Fatty AcidsLinoleic and linolenic acid contain omega-6 and 3 bonds and are necessary for mammalian metabolism. These two fatty acids are therefore essential fatty acids (EFA) and must be supplied by the diet.
Lipid DigestionMost natural whole foods have inherent enzymes capable of completely or partially digesting lipids if the enzymes are not destroyed through heat and processing. This widely underestimated value of whole, raw, fresh foods has been by and large ignored.
Lipid BiochemistryFatty acids contain from 4 to 22 carbon atoms. They can be saturated, having no double bonds in the carbon chain, mono-unsaturated with one double bond in the chain, or polyunsaturated with several double bonds in the fatty acid.
Rationale for Whole Protein ShakeThe perfect supplement and meal replacement for dieters, growing children, athletes, body builders, the ill and the elderly.
ExerciseWe are designed for daily exercise. In the wild if we did not exercise we would not eat, but in our modern world it is a choice. There is virtually no aspect of health that is not benefited by it, but if it is done improperly it can also ruin health.
The Best FoodThe traditional food pyramid is broken and the nutritional religion hasn't solved the problem, the solution is what nature intended and sticking to what your body is genetically adapted to nourish itself on.
More Cancer Treatment FailureIn spite of billions of dollars in research and treatment, cancer has far greater incidence today then at the turn of the century. The answer is not more money but better thinking.
Impossible=PossibleEvolutionists use probabilities to prove that life could have emerged on Earth by chance. Not only are such probabilities in the realm of impossible, scientific laws demand that probable events happen, not impossible ones.
The Female Hormone ProblemModern women who choose to not have children put themselves at risk of increased estrogen sensitive cancers. Modern pollutants and lifestyle choices also increase the risk. The solution is to understand natural biological design and mimic that as closely as possible.
The Many Faces Of EstrogenPhytoestrogens are natural compounds found in plants that may exert a beneficial effect in women without the harmful side effects usual with pharmaceuticals
DeterminismMaterialists believe that all the energy and matter in the universe is governed by physical laws. Since evolution presumes materialism is all there is, and denies the quite evident presences of free will their foundation crumbles. Your free choice to believe in evolution would be the very act that denies its validity
Germs Don't Cause Disease, You DoTotal disinfection and sterilization is not the answer to avoiding disease as proven by any child grubby from a day's play. Bacteria is needed for healthy bodies and correct diet and sleep will do more for you than the best soaps or pills
Surviving Tragedy: Everyone will suffer the loss of a loved one at some time in life. There are principles to learn and keep in mind so that when tragedy does strike you can take the steps that will speed healing.
What Does The Eye Tell Us About EvolutionComplex organs, such as the eye, contain thousands of interrelated parts that seem impossible to explain coming into existence piecemeal. Such irreducible complexity argues strongly against evolution.
Dollars Don't Make Health: The medical community has developed expensive band-aids that do nothing but cover the problem and not solve the underlying causes. Doctors have long known that most disease comes through improper lifestyle choices but because of financial pressures issue prescriptions instead of life-saving advice. Americans now spend over $1.5 trillion annually on medical care. There is no end in sight to risi
