gp part 2
i dont like to be sick. so i take more medicine.
sooooo...
some medicinal science for your wrinkled brain
1) ANTIOXIDANTS - used to destroy free radicals, which are linked to many conditions eg. cancer, diabetes. but since 1980's scientists tested antioxidants. they worked well in test tubes but not in the human body. furthermore, research has shown that vitamin c might actually accelerate diabetes.
2) VITAMIN D - important for building bones. experts linked 18 cancers to lack of vitamin d, as well as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes. a promising cure to cancer.
3) GENETICS - the genetic codes for breast and colon cancer are found recently. now can detect and treat such cancer cells early.
4) PHOTOACOUSTICS - doctors able to spot cancer cells or tumor from blood samples, instead of having to use MRI or CT.
and for environment, if you like you might wanna add this serious case of global warming
1) PALEOCENE-EOCENE THERMAL MAXIMUM (PETM) - occured 55.8 million years ago. this sudden global warming even caused 35~50% extinction rate.
not enough? well too bad coz i dont know any more stuff. for now.
happy gp-mugging
