TYPE II DIABETES is related a lifestyle disease that has reached epidemic proportions having increased 10-fold in a few decades
This disease is characterized by high blood glucose levels due to insulin resistance or an inability to produce insulin.
In observational studies coffee has been associated repeatedly with a lower risk of diabetes. The reduction in risk ranges from 23%all the way up to 67%(11 12 13 14.
Each additional cup of coffee per day lowered the risk of diabetes by 7%.The more coffee people drank the lower their risk (15.
Drinking coffee is associated with a drastically reduced risk of TYPE II DIABETES. People who drink several cups per day are the least likely to become diabetic.
Not only can coffee make you smarter in the short term it may also protect your brain in old age.
Alzheimer's disease is the most common neurodegenerative disorder in the world and a leading cause of dementia.
In prospective studies coffee drinkers have up to a 60%lower risk of Alzheimer's and dementia (16 17 18.
Parkinson's is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by death of dopamine-generating neurons in the brain.
Coffee may lower the risk of Parkinson's by 32-60%(19 20 21 22. Bottom line Coffee is associated with a much lower risk of dementia and the neurodegenerative disorders Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.
The liver is a remarkable organ that carries out hundreds of vital functions in the body.
Cirrhosis is the end stage of liver damage caused by diseases like alcoholism and hepatitis where liver tissue has been replaced largely by scar tissue.

It would be weeks before the full impact of Amato's head trauma became apparent:
35 percent hearing loss in one ear headaches memory loss. But the most dramatic consequence appeared just four days after his accident.
He searched the Internet for an explanation typing in words like gifted and head trauma.
Amato searched the internet for an explanation typing in words like gifted and head trauma. the results astonished him.
A bad fall at age three left Alonzo Clemons with permanent cognitive impairment Amato learned
Finally Amato found the name Darold Treffert a world-recognized expert on savant syndrome a condition in which individuals who are impaired typically mentally demonstrate remarkable skills.
Treffert now retired from the University of Wisconsin School of medicine diagnosed Amato with acquired savant syndrome.
In the 30 or so known cases ordinary people who suffer brain trauma suddenly develop almost-superhuman new abilities:
The neurological causes of acquired savant syndrome are understood poorly. But the Internet has made it easier for people like Amato to connect with researchers who study savants
Removing the child locks on one's brain through brain injury or hallucinogen use may seem like the shortcut

#Obama Expected To Launch Massive Study Of The Human Brainpresident Obama is planning to back an exhaustive study of the human brain that could help researchers gain insight into everything from Alzheimer's to mental illness to artificial intelligence the New york times reports:

or molecular pharmacology to treat neurological disorders will be compromised with a major effort that is fixated on mapping neuronal connections that in the end may not really be able to rectify the pathological processes that underlie the most common brain and spinal cord diseases.
In the vast majority of these illnesses it is the destruction of neurons and other supporting brain cells that leads to loss of brain function.
Our planet has about a 30 percent chance of getting hit by a Tunguska-sized 40 meter asteroid in the next 100 years--compare that to the 23 percent chance an American has of dying of cancer.

#Even Hobby Drones Could Be made Illegal In Texason a hazy day last January an unmanned aircraft enthusiast piloted his camera-equipped drone in the vicinity of a Dallas meatpacking plant cruising around 400 feet in the air.
But the legislation doesn't discriminate between ill intent and intent to surveil and incidental surveillance.
#Majority Of Foodborne Illness Caused By Green Vegetableshere's some food for thought: According to a new study by the CDC the greatest number of foodborne illnesses in the U s. are caused not by raw cookie dough
or undercooked meat or questionable shellfish but by leafy green vegetables. Of the 9. 6 million cases of food-borne illness reported each year 51 percent are caused by contaminated plants;
leafy greens alone contribute 23 percent of the total more than any other commodity. All the meat and poultry commodities combined--beef game pork and poultry--were responsible for 22 percent of illness
and dairy carried 17 percent. Many of the contaminants lurking on leafy greens are noroviruses--the bugs that cause
what most of us call the stomach flu--deposited by food handlers according to a story in the New york times
. But before you throw caution to the wind and sit down with a big bowl of raw cookie dough
but poultry is still more likely to kill you. stomach flu--deposited by food handlersdoes this mean the migrants are taking dumps in the field LOLHOW much of this effect is down to the fact that we are all hyper aware of handling raw meats
a lot of this illness could be avoided right at the kitchen by understanding better standard cooking food cleanliness.
Saying the illness IS CAUSED by vegetables is just absolutely wrong and misleading and not a scientific statement by any means.
The foodbourne illness IS CAUSED by dirty workers and too much fertilizer/pesticides. This is a ridiculous title for the article and the article isnt even informative.
Buzz70. Com@-hms-While that's a really good point the study separates incidents into the groups illnesses hospitalizations and deaths.
This article references only the illnesses group in which the greens are responsible for the majority of the incidents.
when you have the gastric flu? an unknown starling you have seen never or the lettuce you had with your lunch.
@African Rover for the most part viral infections are not transmissible between species . If you get norovirus it came from a human and specifically human fecal contact.
Bacterial infections are a completely different story. We have seen more E coli infections recently that can be blamed on animal waste

There is no question that the Paleo diet is the healthy way to go as grains dairy etc. lead to obesity disorders

For centuries physicians used a urine flavor wheel to help them diagnose a patient's illness based on the taste of the patient's pee.

Although the 145 bison to be given away have a clean bill of health many of the park's bison are carrying a disease that devastates livestock herds.
Brucellosis is caused by the bacteria Brucella abortus so named because it causes cattle to miscarry their fetuses.
The disease has been eradicated in 48 states everywhere except Wyoming and Montana where 50 percent of Yellowstone s wild bison may be infected.
and the park has attempted to lower the prevalence of the disease in wild bison. Part of the plan included culling diseased bison from herds
and another part used calves that tested negative for Brucella to establish a small disease-free population that was kept segregated from untested bison.
Although a 2011 study said that the measures have not been successful in reducing the prevalence of brucellosis in the overall population there hasn t yet been documented a case of transmission between Yellowstone bison and livestock.
#Unleashing An Epidemic To Kill The Tumbleweedsdana Berner wants to start an epidemic among tumbleweeds.
Berner is a pathologist with the U s. Agricultural research service who studies the diseases that afflict plants.
Without the predators and diseases that normally munch at them in places like Russia and Hungary they can grow in incredible numbers.
Knowing the Americans would be interested they mailed a sample to the Agricultural research service's Foreign Disease-Weed Science Research Unit in Fort Detrick Maryland.
Those tests were performed in a biosafety level 3 greenhouse a precaution that was meant to protect not the human researchers who aren't susceptible to the diseases studied in the greenhouse but all of the plants outside of it.
which a species is susceptible to certain pathogens based on its genetics. The model is used a widely one for checking
Only a few species were vulnerable to infection at all. Those that were didn't seem to suffer in overall health from the infection.
One helpful fact: Plant diseases tend to infect closely related species and there are no plants native to the U s. that share tumbleweeds'Genus salsola.
Now it's a question of waiting which depends in part on whether the approval committee is convinced by Berner and his coworkers'safety tests.
We know what we have to do to prevent irreparable harm. We have the technological imagination
The contamination was so widespread that experts have estimated between 4000 and 93000 extra cancer deaths have occurred
And since wild boar dig through soil for food they are affected particularly by this contamination. They also eat underground mushrooms and deer truffles
#The Swine flu You Can Get From American County Fairsbefore 2012 outbreaks of so-called influenza A variant infections in the U s. only popped up once in a while in the medical literature.
Then in 2012 healthcare workers across the U s. reported 309 human cases of influenza A (H3n2) variant also known as H3n2v.
However this kind of research only draws conclusions based on people's sickness and their behaviors. Now a new in depth study of the genetics of H3n2v in swine and humans in Ohio shows the epidemiological studies were right.
Samples of flu viruses taken from pigs and from people in Ohio during the 2012 outbreak were genetically close to one another according to the study
In addition all of the cases recorded across the state were more than 99.5 percent similar to one another genetically indicating that it was just one flu strain that took residence in humans and swine alike.
It's a little funny to think of getting a flu from a pig at the county fair.
That's not exactly the kind of scene you imagine for the beginning of a sci-fi movie about the next big pandemic.
which influenza viruses evolve. Swine are susceptible to avian human and swine flus and these virus can circulate inside pigs for varying lengths of time with no signs of illness.
This makes them great meet-markets for flu viruses to exchange genetic material. The H1n1 flu that reached pandemic proportions in 2009 first spent some time circulating among pigs in Asia Europe and North america.
Luckily H3n2v doesn't readily move between people which limits its ability to spread. People mostly catch it directly from swine.
The U s. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that people who are susceptible to complications from the flu--such as young kids older adults
and pregnant women--avoid pig barns at fairs. Keeping away from sick-looking pigs is important but not adequate.
Seven of those 10 fairs were associated with reported human illnesses. And even more scary six of those seven fairs didn't have any sick-looking pigs.
which was published in the September issue of the journal Emerging Infectious diseases. That probably means more investigators gathering poogers at fairs.
A nasty virus that causes severe diarrhea in pigs has killed off an estimated 5-10 percent of pigs in the United states causing prices to rise dramatically.
but the disease is deadly to piglets. Breakfast prognosis: Pricier pork products are definitely here
In addition to the shortfall from Brazil orange growers in Florida and elsewhere are facing the disease known as citrus greening
because malaria yellow fever dysentery and other diseases claimed the lives of approximately 20000 workers. The U s. took over the project in 1904 and implemented some sanitation practices--including draining wetlands
The land of the jungle where the mosquito sang her weird song of death unmolested for four hundred years vying with the germs of dysentery typhoid fever and pneumonia in the destruction of human life;
It has been accomplished by the forceful and efficient efforts of a corps of intelligent sanitarians who have proven themselves master pioneers in the prevention of tropical diseases
and the amount spent for the prevention of disease it is found that about one cent per day per man has been expended.
and streams the most important of the latter being the Chagres Eiver celebrated for malignant malarial disease.
The heavy rainfall insures permanent stagnant water where the larvae of the yellow fever and malarial mosquitos thrive in countless millions;
Decaying animal matter leads to the generation of innumerable flies ever ready to convey disease
and the water supply is polluted and pregnant with disease germs. This is the condition of things now in the surrounding country
Yellow fever had been endemic for hundreds of years and epidemic when new material was available. Malaria was ever present consuming the life blood
and limiting the capacity of generation after generation of the native population and attacking the unacclimated with vigor and fatality.
Typhoid fever was very common and the ravages of dysentery were sorely distressing. The history of the Isthmus is linked inseparably with disease and death.
For more than three hundred years it was the favorite highway from ocean to ocean and many thousands perished en route from tropical disease.
The Panama railroad is only forty-five miles long but it took five years to build it
and the cost in human life has never been estimated satisfactorily. Two different times a thousand imported men all died within one year.
One of the most pathetic incidents in all the history of human effort was the failure of The french
Gorgas himself says that the Americans could have done no better than The french without the knowledge of the mosquito as a disease carrier.
which yellow fever has been banished for more than six years; where the mortality from typhoid fever and dysentery has been reduced to the minimum;
where malaria has become mild and controllable; the country where the deaths per thousand among canal employees instead of De Lesseps's 240 is only seven and one half.
It is almost unbelievable but it is true. Among white American employees the death rate is less than three per thousand.
Now the real war against diseases was begun lakes and swamps that had never been drained since nature made them poured out their accumulated filth to the sea;
and fumigation resorted to when necessary in handling contagious diseases. Rotting vegetable and animal matter offal
a hospital car was run with every train for the ill or the injured; medical and surgical service was skilled
But it was the one cent per day per man expended for the prevention of disease that worked the miracle.
and shall be subordinated to the prevention of disease. And this will not be altogether humanitarianism for a human life has its commercial value a definite value worthy of consideration One of the first results of this remarkable sanitary crusade will be noticed in Central and South america.
and enervated by centuries of disease have not kept pace with the progress of the world
Shall we go on permitting hundreds of thousands of people to die of preventable diseases like typhoid fever malaria and tuberculosis?
The heavy mortality from these and other diseases is highly discreditable to an enlightened people.
and conscienceless food adulterators were spending money by the millions to defeat the purpose of the people to establish a health bureau in Washington to prevent disease
Thorough instruction of our twenty millions of school children on practical sanitation would result in reducing the mortality from preventable diseases by half in one generation.
and a veritable health resort right in the midst of disease and death. The Panama canal is a wonderful feat of engineering
#Ticks That Can Make People Severely Allergic To Meat Are Spreading In The U s . But a few hours after dinner Abley started itching like mad.
At the hospital doctors determined he had gone into anaphylactic shock potentially deadly allergic reaction. Fortunately Abley pulled through
And it wasn t just the beef he was allergic to; it was practically all red meat.
Abley is one of at least 1500 people in the United states who suffer allergic reactions after eating meat
But what s even more bizarre is the source of the allergy. The condition called alpha-gal allergy is caused by the bite of a Lone Star tick species traditionally found mostly in the Southern United states
but has spread farther north in recent years. And as the tick spreads more and more cases of meat allergies are being reported.
In one area of Long island New york for example one doctor we spoke with has seen an increase of 200 cases in the past three years p from practically zero in 2011.
The connection between Lone Star ticks and meat allergies in America first came to light in 2008.
At the time Thomas Platts-Mills and Scott Commins both allergy specialists at the University of Virginia Health System were trying to understand why some of their patients had developed a severe allergic reactions to cetuximab an intravenous cancer-fighting drug.
the southeastern United states. So a lab technician Googled for medical conditions that fit geographically with the allergy they were seeing.
Sure enough they found that Rocky mountain spotted fever tickborne disease ffected the same areas. We went back to our patients
Around the same time more and more healthy patients began reporting meat allergies (one of them being Abley.
Like the patients allergic to cetuximab these patients were also predominantly from the Southeast a region crawling with ticks.
and Commins to figure out the allergies were connected nd that the link was alpha-gal sugar.
which makes the tickborne meat allergy so surprising. Moreover the patients of Commins and Platts-Mills weren born t with the condition
and they reportedly showed symptoms much later in life unique trait for an allergy. So the doctors finally asked the question they'd wanted to
Are ticks actually causing this alpha-gal allergy? In a series of revealing experiments they sampled blood from their patients with meat allergies
and combined them with various tick extracts. They discovered that the Ige antibodies in their patients blood samples binded to the Lone Star tick extract;
meanwhile the same antibodies from people without the meat allergy did not glom onto the tick proteins.
Despite identifying the vessel for the mysterious meat allergy Commins and Platts-Mills say many questions remain unanswered about the condition.
or if only some do (as is the case with Lyme disease which is caused by a bacterium).
As Commins and Platts-Mills struggle to understand the mechanisms behind this allergy the number of cases they re seeing is trending upward nd the allergy is confined no longer to the south.
Dr. Erin Mcgintee an allergist on New york s Long island who s worked with the UVA team has diagnosed approximately 200 cases of this allergy in the area she works.
I don t think it s a nationwide epidemic but as the Lone Star tick geographical distribution increases
I think it s going to be a regional epidemic in many areas. Meanwhile many of the meat allergy sufferers have had to adjust to a new normal.
Abley initially refused to accept his diagnosis experimenting with different meats to see if he could tolerate them.
I d rather have the allergy than leave that
