During the developing years of life, the importance of maintaining a balanced diet is stressed and children are encouraged to eat more fruits and vegetables. Many parents place an emphasis on the idea that eating sugar is bad, but fail to see how other aspects of nutrition play a vital role in the major functions of the body. It is important that parents be informed of how essential nutrition is to weight loss, the ability to concentrate, and how even mood can be affected by the foods a child…

When a patient presents to the hospital with a MI the optimal treatment to relieve pain is oxygen, nitroglycerin, and morphine sulfate respectively (Boateng, 2013). Aspirin 160-325mg orally should also be administered to patients presenting with an acute MI (Ryan et. al, 2015). Depending on whether the patient is presenting with STEMI or non-STEMI will determine the next plan of action. If a patient is diagnosed with a STEMI it is pertinent to apply reperfusion therapy, a therapy that restores…

Main Question Post: Week 4: Cardiovascular Disorders Myocardial Ischemia and Acute Coronary Syndrome Cardiovascular disease (CVD) persists as the principle source of death amongst the men and women globally, and has claimed further breathes yearly in the United States (U.S) than “cancer, chronic lung disease, and accidents” collectively (Dunlay, & Roger, 2012). Myocardial ischemia and acute coronary syndrome originate with the coronary artery disease. According to Huether and McCance (2012),…

industrial food makers now make their sugary snacks not with sugar, but instead fructose which is a corn sweetener. Pollan also says this in his article, “Study at the University of Minnesota found that a diet high in fructose to glucose elevates triglyceride levels in men shortly after eating causing obesity” (Pollan 10). The corn diet is affecting us making our diets worse and most didn’t even know. That is not the only thing hidden under our noses of what is in our found which stresses the…

Chapter1. The development of biodiesel The name biodiesel refers to the fuel that comes from biological sources and is mainly to be applied in diesel engines. The National Biodiesel Board (NBB) defines biodiesel as “a domestic, renewable fuel for diesel engines derived from nature oils”. As a matter of fact, biodiesel is so called not only because of biologically derivation as waste raw materials are also commonly used in production (Sunggyu Lee 2012). Compared with massive GHG emissions of CO2,…

In the following paragraphs, it will show about five advantages about GM food. First of all, Genetically Modified plants and crops help crops to have more resistances (Connect US the Global Issue Blog, 2015), which is combated the natural disease, less to depend on the pesticides. That mean GM food can lead to decreased use of pesticides, GM crops do not need pesticides to have stronger protection and resistance combat the different kinds of pests and ,insects that may destroy it, they can be…

Lipid profile including triglyceride, total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and HDL cholesterol were centrifuged for plasma concentration and they were restored at the same laboratory. The students’ actual Grade Point Average (GPA) along with their score in math, geometry, calculus and…

Insulin, one of the most important peptide hormone in the body, which plays significant role in maintaining the blood glucose level in the body. Under certain physiological conditions such as pregnancy, the body mechanism changes due to elevated levels of certain secretory factor like leptin, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, TNF-α, plasminogen activator and testosterone (McLachlan et al., 2006), which produces certain adverse effects, insulin resistance being the most prominent one, where the…

2) DKA usually occurs as a consequence of absolute or relative insulin deficiency that is accompanied by an increase in counter-regulatory hormones (ie, glucagon, cortisol, growth hormone, epinephrine). This type of hormonal imbalance enhances hepatic gluconeogenesis, glycogenolysis, and lipolysis. Hepatic gluconeogenesis, glycogenolysis secondary to insulin deficiency, and counter-regulatory hormone excess result in severe hyperglycemia, while lipolysis increases serum free fatty acids.…

Will Changing the Temperature of the Cream Affect the Mass of the Butter Particles? Purpose: The purpose of the experiment was to see if the temperature of the cream would affect the mass of the dried butter. Background Information: Cream is the part of the milk that rises to the top during milk production. Cream is a liquid at room temperature, but it is very versatile and contains certain characteristics that allows it to change form. (Lower, 2017). Using only a little force, the cream…
