Since obesity is on the continual rise, there has been a lot of research done to determine the best way to decrease weight. For many years, studies of body weight regulation have focused almost completely on caloric intake and energy expenditure.23 Since the obesity epidemic continues to skyrocket, one diet that has received a lot of attention is Intermittent fasting (IF), or periods of voluntary abstinence from food and drink.24 In some places, IF has been practiced since the earliest of…

Case Study #2 - Hematuria. 1. Why did this patient require a retrograde pyelography and an antegrade pyelography? Retrograde pyelography is an invasive inspection of the kidneys from a distal way through the ureters. It has been used as a primary method infrequently, but it has a few probable signals when it can be a secondary method. Retrograde pyelography is mostly used to examine lacerations of the ureter. It generally necessitates a universal painkilling, and may end in the introduction of…

TestoFuel is quite simple, upon the activation of Testosterone Stimulating Hormone (TSH) and Luteinizing Hormone our body produces Testosterone all by natural means. Leutinizing hormone is a gonadotropic hormone which activates as a result of hypothalamus signaling to the pituitary gland to release gonadotrophic substances such as Testosterone. Ingredients in TestoFuel works concomitantly on a cellular level which boost the level of Testosterone in normal individual. Once the level of…

in the nasal epithelium. Stimulation of the olfactory system is shown to immediately lower blood pressure, muscle tension, pupil size, brain activity and sleep (Barcan, 2014) The stimulation from there is then processed to the limbic system and hypothalamus. Once the olfactory bulb and cortex is stimulated, the release of serotonin, norepinephrine, and endorphins occur. After stimulation, this serves as a barrier to the continuation of the stress response (Isabel Sánchez-Vidaña,Pui-Ching Ngai,…

Farm raised fish are good to eat, good for the environment and good for your health.

It is a nutritious, plentiful and relatively inexpensive food available across the globe. There are…

Put simply, gender identity is how you feel inside and how you express your gender through clothing, behavior, and personal appearance (“Gender and Gender…

19 years old and living in 1945. Jimmie’s longer term memory stopped dead in 1945. Gilles de la Tourette is a heightened sense that is explained in the book. This disease is “a brain disorder, centered in the ‘old brain’ involving the thalamus, hypothalamus, limbic system and the amygdala” (Butler-Bowdon). This disease is found to have “more than the usual amount of excitor transmitters in their brains, particularly the transmitter dopamine” (Butler-Bowdon). Sacks focuses on the person as a…

and they cannot store new information to memory. The deficiency in the body because of the chronic misuse of alcohol has done damage to the diencephalon part of the brain. This brain cells are killed in areas of the diencephalon, thalamus and hypothalamus parts of the brain. Patients that have Korsakoff also have a cortical atrophy that the outer layers of the brain are wasting away. The Wernicke and Korsakoff Syndrome are commonly misdiagnosed because the signs of patients that suffer with it…

humans use this hormone to prevent overeating after a meal. The observations say that seeing obesity as a hormonal disorder is too superficial. Obese humans have a high amount of leptin and insulin. These hormones affect pathways of neurons in hypothalamus and systems in the brain that control the reward system. During times of hunger, the activity in the striatum heighten. The striatum contains high levels of chemicals that increase the pleasure and reward feelings, endorphins. Your stomach…
