Magnetically Charged Nanoparticles Offer New Drug Delivery Technique for Chronic Conditions
Posted on 2009-09-22 15:25:28 in Biotechnology | Cancer | Diabetes | Pain Management |

Conditions such as chronic pain, cancer and diabetes, require medications that cannot be taken orally, but must be dosed intermittently, on an as-needed basis, over a long period of time. Researchers led by Daniel Kohane, from Children's Hospital Boston (Massachusetts, USA) have devised an innovative drug delivery technique to turn dosing on and off, deliver consistent doses and adjust doses according to the patient's need.

Vitamin C deficiency and high C-reactive protein levels linked to chronic diseases
Posted on 2009-08-13 11:56:16 in Cancer | Cardio-Vascular | Diabetes | Dietary Supplementation | Inflammation | Longevity and Age Management | Nutrition | Weight and Obesity |
A recent study found that a deficiency in vitamin C correlated with increased levels of c-reative protein among the subject studied. Those who did not receive the daily recommended allowance for vitamin C also exhibited larger waist circumference, body mass index and higher blood pressure. Continue reading…

In his book The Devil in the Milk, author Dr. Kevin Woodford suggests that there is a strong link between the type of milk we drink and a variety of diseases, from heart disease and Type 1 diabetes to autism and schizophrenia. Continue reading…
Nicotine triggers insulin resistance, a key factor in the high rates of heart disease in smokers
Posted on 2009-07-16 16:00:22 in Cardio-Vascular | Diabetes | Longevity and Age Management | Stress |
Nicotine promotes insulin resistance or prediabetes, a condition known for increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke. This, researchers believe, is one of the key factors responsible for the high cardiovascular death rates in smokers. Continue reading…
