Literally, the word “osteoporosis” translates to “porous bones,” and occurs when excessive bone is lost, inadequate bone is produced, or a combination of both. Living with…

and the cerebral cortex. The limbic system processes emotions, how we recognize emotions, and how we express them. The thalamus sorts information coming from all these different parts. The Hypothalamus monitors pleasurable activities and releases hormones in response to emotions. The Basal Ganglia works with the cerebral cortex as well as the cerebellum to help you do movements such as riding a bike. The Cerebral cortex is what makes up 80% of the brain and made up of two…

Nutrition Minerals and vitamins are essential for the regular functioning of mostly all metabolic processes in ruminants. Dietary deficits or extremes of certain minerals and vitamins can influence in major financial losses in animal productivity. Several guidelines have been published by national organizations that recommend variable amounts of vitamin D intake.61 The reference values (Dietary Reference Intakes) for vitamin D were established in 1997; however, novel reference values were…

becomes, which results in Kidney Failure. Kidney failure affects the body in very negative way. At this stage you will need dialysis or a complete kidney transplant.

yeloow marrow. The red marrow makes blood and the yellow marrow stores fat. The bone marrows purpose it to make blood cells. 9. Calcium moves into bone osteoblast cells to create new bone and osteoclasts break down bone. The two hormones that are involved are parathyroid and calcitonin which helps control blood calcium levels. Calcitonin is released by the thyroid gland holds back osteoclasts and makes osteoblast, which decreases blood calcium levels. 10. There are four stages of bone repair…

Hypertension is an asymptomatic vascular disorder that displays an increased systolic (>120mm/Hg) or diastolic (>80mm/Hg) pressure. The etiology of the disorder is unknown, and is therefore known as an idiopathic disorder but a variety of factors do play a role in the pathogenesis of the disorder such as coarctation of the aorta, salt sensitivity, renal abnormalities, hormonal disorders and neurological malfunctions. Therefore, the manifestation of the disorder is a complex interaction…

Women are affected by osteoporosis than men because women have lower dense bone mass and an increased rate of low bone mass especially after menopause. Primary osteoporosis is the most common type of…
