Israel is Testing DIME Munitions on Hamas

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dense_Inert_Metal_Explosive

The explosive used in DIME munitions is HMX & paraffin or RDX plastic explosive mixed with a high density alloy of tungsten, cobalt and nickel or tungsten, nickel and iron.

This makes DIME munitions kill less people immediately but kills the wounded due to carcinogenic nature of tungsten, tungsten oxide and cobalt.

The fine powder of tungsten alloy is less lethal than trinital (90% TNT and 10% aluminium powder), though there is no indication that titanium and magnesium powder is substituted, both of which burn in water (heavy rain actually makes burning metals pull oxygen out of the water and ignite the hydrogen).

However, the wounds within the kill zone consist of sliced off limbs and other serious medical injuries which lead to rapid loss of blood after concussion of blast has caused internal bleeding.

In contrast, outside the kill zone, wounds are of the sliced limbs type. This requires tying off the limb(s) above cut site to reduce bleeding.

However, removal of fine heavy inert metal particles is impossible. Even if the victim just had a flesh wound without amputations, the chance of cancer occurring is increased by the amount of particulates left in body.

If nanoparticles created by the explosion enters a wound, then it could enter blood vessels and be transported to the liver, leading to eventual metastasis in cancer i.e. the liver will help duplicate cancer cells and send them off instead of health stem cells converted into white blood cells, white blood cells converted to red blood cells by removed nucleus, and other tissue cells, including neurons.

To reduce this health hazard, a dense material that true is inert should be substituted e.g. rock dust of a dense type which is homogenous i.e. made of one type of crystalline structure i.e. jasper not granite. Another suggested substitute would be chemically treated ground glass e.g. gorilla glass, to increase density of the inorganic plastic.

This assumed that neither side will stop using DIME munitions.

As well, to save costs, Hamas could improvise cheaper bombs by filling empty space in warheads with finely ground silica sand.

Solution: petition the US to declare DIME munition a WMD.

Osteoarthritis & Rheumatism Deficiency Diseases

Necessary for arthritis and rheumatism, as well as bone loss, are gelatin, vitamins A and D, cod liver oil, flaxseed oil, and a proper balance of calcium and magnesium.

And, no! Milk does not provide adequate calcium due to the high phosporus content. It actually leads to osteoarthritis.

Fish is actually a better source of calcium, as are vegetable forms of calcium and magnesium, especially kale.

Phytates are found in enough quantities in foods stored in plastic bottles to lead to leaching of calcium, especially in a diet devoid of Omega-3 essential fatty acids, which flaxseed, hempseed and evening primrose oils have in balanced quantities when compared to the average Canadian diet.

It's amazing that bone doctors are so ignorant of nutrition, and that they ignore what nutritionists and dieticians have been saying for at least a decade about the importance of essential fatty acids, Vitamins A & D, and gelatin.

NOW True Calm and Natures Harmony Rhodiola with Cordyceps

NOW True Calm is an "amino acid relaxing formula" consisting of:

• niacinamide (45 mg),
• pyridoxine (8 mg),
• magnesium (13 mg),
• GABA - gamma aminobutyric acid (200 mg),
• glycine (200 mg),
• taurine (200 mg),
• inositol (100 mg) and
• valerian root (25 mg).

Niacinamide is a derivative of vitamin B-3 can be used for the treatment of arthritis by aiding the body in its production of cartilage.This product is often used for energy drinks. Nicotinamide is a water-soluble component of the vitamin B complex group. Nicotinamide has demonstrated anti-inflammatory actions which may be of benefit in patients with inflammatory acne vulgaris, including but not limited to, suppression of antigen induced-lymphocytic transformation and inhibition of 3'-5' cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase.

Pyridoxine is one of the compounds that can be called vitamin B6, along with Pyridoxal and Pyridoxamine. Pyridoxine assists in the balancing of sodium and potassium as well as promoting red blood cell production. It is linked to cardiovascular health by decreasing the formation of homocysteine. It has been suggested that Pyridoxine might help children with learning difficulties, and may also prevent dandruff, eczema, and psoriasis. It is required for the production of the monoamine neurotransmitters serotonin, dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline as it is the cofactor for the enzyme aromatic amino acid decarboxylase. This enzyme is responsible for converting the precusors 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-htp) into serotonin and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (l-dopa) into dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline. As such it has been implicated in the treatment of depression and anxiety.

Magnesium is a vital component of a healthy human diet and deficiency has been implicated in a number of human diseases. Magnesium is readily available in many common foods but studies indicate that many Americans are magnesium deficient. Supplemental magnesium is readily available and it is also difficult to overdose on magnesium. General failure of the Kidneys may also lead to magnesium imbalance.

GABA is an amino acid produced naturally by the brain. It inhibits the over-stimulation of excessive nerve impulses - a condition that often leads to stress, irritability and sleep deprivation.

Glycine is one of 20 amino acids found in protein. It is synthesized in the body from serine using pyridoxal phospate - the phosphate form of Vitamin B6, and is found in collagen, which contains about 35% glycine. Glycine is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, especially in the spinal cord, brainstem, and retina.

Taurine, or 2-aminoethanesulfonic acid, is an organic acid that is a major constituent of bile, and can be found in lower amounts in the tissues of many animals including humans. There is also evidence that taurine in adult humans reduces blood pressure. It can help reduce body weight. Currently taurine is being tested as an anti-manic treatment for bipolar depression. Taurine is also found in energy drinks, where it may help reduce muscle fatigue.

Inositol, (of which the most prominent naturally-occurring form is myo-inositol, cis-1,2,3,5-trans-4,6-cyclohexanehexol), is a carbocyclic polyol that plays an important role as the structural basis for a number of secondary messengers in eukaryotic cells, including inositol phosphates, phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) lipids. Myo-Inositol is classified as a member of the vitamin B complex (often referred to as vitamin B8), and is synthesized by the human body. Some preliminary results of studies on inositol supplements show promising results for people suffering from problems such as bulimia, panic disorder and bipolar depression. Myo-inositol has been found in double-blind studies to be an effective treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Valerian (Valeriana officinalis, Valerianaceae) is a hardy perennial flowering plant, with heads of sweetly scented pink or white flowers. Tossing, turning and lost sleep are some of the most common physical byproducts of an unhealthy mood. Valerian is a 100% natural, safe and non-addictive herbal extract that works in the brain by inhibiting the nerve impulses that prevent the body from attaining pure, uninterrupted slumber. It has been used safely for centuries...

Natures Harmony Rhodiola with Cordyceps consists of:

• Rhodiola rosea extract (50 mg), and
• Cordyceps sinensis (250 mg)

Maintains energy, stamina and mental focus.

Rhodiola rosea is a plant in the Crassulaceae family that grows in cold regions of the world. Rhodiola rosea is effective for improving mood and alleviating depression. Russian research shows that it improves both physical and mental performance, reduces fatigue, and prevents high altitude sickness. Rhodiola rosea's effects are attributed to its ability to optimise serotonin and dopamine levels, due to monoamine oxidase inhibition and to its influence on opioid peptides such as beta-endorphins. Substances like these are referred to as adaptogens. They differ from stimulants, and do not have the same health consequences as nicotine, etc.

Cordyceps is a genus of ascomycete fungi that includes thousands of species. The species that parasitizes the vegetable caterpillar — Cordyceps sinensis — is the most famous of these, having long been considered a precious ingredient in Chinese traditional medicines. Some Cordyceps species are sources of biochemicals with interesting biological and pharmacological properties, like cordycepin... Cordyceps sinensis is a species of fungus found in southwest, mountainous China that attacks caterpillars, specifically the larvae of hepialid moths (identified as species of Hepialus or Thitarodes). The entire fungus-caterpillar combination is hand-collected for medicinal use. In Chinese medicine C. sinensis is considered sweet and warm, it enters the Lung and Kidney channels, and the typical dosage is 3-9 grams.

Magnesum supplementation and fructose-free drinks may reduce auto-immune inflammation

The metabolic syndrome is a cluster of common pathologies: abdominal obesity linked to an excess of visceral fat, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and hypertension.

This syndrome is occurring at epidemic rates, with dramatic consequences for human health worldwide, and appears to have emerged largely from changes in our diet and reduced physical activity. An important but not well-appreciated dietary change has been the substantial increase in fructose intake, which appears to be an important causative factor in the metabolic syndrome.

There is also experimental and clinical evidence that the amount of magnesium in the western diet is insufficient to meet individual needs and that magnesium deficiency may contribute to insulin resistance.

In recent years, several studies have been published that implicate subclinical chronic inflammation as an important pathogenic factor in the development of metabolic syndrome.

Pro-inflammatory molecules produced by adipose tissue have been implicated in the development of insulin resistance. The present review will discuss experimental evidence showing that the metabolic syndrome, high fructose intake and low magnesium diet may all be linked to the inflammatory response.

In many ways, fructose-fed rats display the changes observed in the metabolic syndrome and recent studies indicate that high-fructose feeding is associated with NADPH oxidase and renin-angiotensin activation. The production of reactive oxygen species results in the initiation and development of insulin resistance, hyperlipemia and high blood pressure in this model.

In this rat model, a few days of experimental magnesium deficiency produces a clinical inflammatory syndrome characterized by leukocyte and macrophage activation, release of inflammatory cytokines, appearance of the acute phase proteins and excessive production of free radicals.

Because magnesium acts as a natural calcium antagonist, the molecular basis for the inflammatory response is probably the result of a modulation of the intracellular calcium concentration. Potential mechanisms include the priming of phagocytic cells, the opening of calcium channels, activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, the activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NFkB) and activation of the renin-angiotensin system.

Since magnesium deficiency has a pro-inflammatory effect, the expected consequence would be an increased risk of developing insulin resistance when magnesium deficiency is combined with a high-fructose diet.

Accordingly, magnesium deficiency combined with a high-fructose diet induces insulin resistance, hypertension, dyslipidemia, endothelial activation and prothrombic changes in combination with the upregulation of markers of inflammation and oxidative stress.

Magnesum supplementation and fructose-free drinks in a low-carb diet will help reverse the effects of metabolic syndrome.

It will also relieve anxiety on the long run.
