Safer Vaccines Safer Children
How many vaccines that contain unnatural to human biology chemicals can be injected before your children suffer autism or some other condition? The answer is unclear, which is why it is imperative to parents- for the sake of their children's health and very future-to never inject chemicals that could do irreparable harm. The less unnatural to human biology chemicals in vaccines the SAFER our children are. Dr. Robert Caires DC, Esq. inactive, a doctor and lawyer, explains why parents are placed in the uncomfortable position of refusing tovaccinate their children with vaccines that have unhealthy chemicals.Parents will consider SAFER vaccines. This book is a detailed account on how most vaccines are laced with harmful chemicals that can degenerate the health of children and even cause autism. Children deserve SAFER vaccines and parents need to protect children from CHEMICALIZATION! He makes a compelling argument that to assure SAFER vaccines, vaccination should not be mandated and that vaccine producers need to be held accountable and liable for injuries induced by vaccine chemicals.The priority must be safety, but for far too long, it's been all about profits. Be safe, not sorry;only consider SAFER vaccines. The autism epidemic rages on because the main etiology of autism is the unnatural to human biology chemicals in vaccines that penetrate brain cells. Empower yourself, keep your children safe, and help change the system with the insights in Safer Vaccines, Safer Children. Vaccinate with SAFER vaccines approved by SAFER Vaccines Inc. Charity! We need to remove other toxins to assure SAFER vaccines!

AVD - The Anti-Viral Diet
Essential Reading for Everyone who wants to Learn about the Potential of Dietary Ingredients to Protect Us from Viruses and Viral Illnesses - including Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Academic author Edouard d'Araille ('Adapa's Ascent', 'The Life of Thought', 'In the Temple of Dreams') here presents his proposal for an 'Anti-Viral Diet', which he describes as "a diet whose primary purpose is to counteract viral threats and to maximize the ability of our immune systems to fight off both viruses and viral diseases". Based upon findings from over fifty years of scientific research into the effects of certain naturally occurring chemicals on viruses and the human immune system, 'AVD' identifies 52 ingredients that might play an effective role in an 'Anti-Viral Diet'. In some cases, the ingredients proposed appear to have a direct effect on viruses; while in other instances, research indicates that they enhance the responses of our immune systems - which is also likely to provide us with better protection from viruses. This is the 'COVID-19 Edition' of AVD, therefore an extra focus of attention is committed to drawing from the results of recent research into natural compounds which have shown most promise in counteracting the SARS-CoV-2 virus, and in some cases potentially aiding treatment of COVID-19 itself. 'AVD' is divided into three stages that progressively present information about natural anti-viral agents and how they might best serve us in a diet: Part 1 discusses the impact of Coronaviruses and shares the views of numerous scientists in regard to the usage of natural chemicals in order to develop treatment options and protect against these and other viruses. Part 2 provides some core knowledge about the anti-viral and immuno-modulatory properties of fifty-two natural ingredients - all found in or as food - in each case indicating which viruses they have been shown to act against or how the immune system is enhanced by them. Exclusive online research dossiers are web-linked to each of these chapters, which altogether contain over 1000 links to experiments, studies, reviews, trials, analyses and other research papers - evidence that goes to support the inclusion of each component. Finally, Part 3 explains in outline the idea of a preliminary 'Anti-Viral Diet' with which to incorporate some of the ingredients from Part 2 into one's own daily dietary intake. The current edition of 'AVD' includes 104 Colour Photographs and over 120 Scientific References within the volume itself. - 'AVD' is Volume 1 of the new 'HEALTH' Series from The Academy of the Third Millennium(TM) (A3M) and LIVING TIME(TM) Books.

Principles and Applications of Up-Converting Phosphor Technology
This book presents an overview of up-converting phosphor (UCP), including UCP preparation, development of the rapid detection strips and UCP industrialization. It also discusses the wide clinical applications of this technology, such as in food poisoning, infectious diseases, drug-abuse and disaster rescue, where rapid point-of-care testing is often critical. Conventional testing methods are mainly based on gold immunochromatography, which relies heavily on results being read with the naked eye. However, up-converting phosphor technology (UPT) employs UCP particles as labels for rapid target detection. Unlike other conventional fluorescence techniques, UCP is excited by infrared light and emitted visible light. This anti-stokes phenomenon provides this special label with significant advantages, including zero background detection, high resistance to environmental influences (e.g. pH, salts, sample contamination), high sensitivity and quantitative detection.Systematically summarizing UCP technology and its wide applications, this book is a valuable resource for researchers and technicians in the field.

Therapeutische Diagnosen in P瓣diatrie, Kinder- Und Jugendpsychiatrie
In Deutschland haben wir zwei Klassifikationsmodelle, um Kinder mit Problemen und Ressourcen ganzheitlich zu erfassen. Zum einen die ICD-10 (International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems 10. Revision) und zum anderen die ICF-CY (International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health. Children and Youth Version). In der Vergangenheit hat sich aber gezeigt, dass die ICD-10 und die ICF-CY nicht in Kombination miteinander benutzt werden. Somit entsteht automatisch eine nicht vollst瓣ndige Diagnostik. Beide Klassifikationsmodelle wurden aber so entwickelt, dass sie aufeinander abgestimmt sind und sich somit erg瓣nzen. Allerdings haben diese Model keine Leitlinie, wann und wo man sie in einem Prozess zum Erstellen einer therapeutischen Diagnose einsetzt. Dieses Buch soll aufzeigen, welche Modelle man ben繹tigt, um eine therapeutische Diagnose zu erstellen.

Body Reset Diet
Several people take on a "cleanse" or "detox" diet every year to lose the extra holiday weight or simply start following healthy habits. However, some fat diet plans are often a bit overwhelming. For example, it requires a tremendous amount of self-discipline to drink only juices. Moreover, even after finishing a grueling detox diet plan, you might just go back to eating foods that are bad for you because of those days of deprivation. New studies issued in the Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise shows that low-calorie diets may result in binge eating, which is not the right method for lasting weight loss. A reset is considered as a new start - one that can get your metabolism and your liver in good shape. There is no official endpoint of the diet after the first fifteen days for losing and maintaining weight. The habits and routines formed over fifteen days should be maintained for a lifetime.

Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics
Food nutrients can have a consequence on human health through epigenetic modifications. This can occur due to DNA methylation and histone modification. Diet can directly have an impact on methylation patterns and gene expression. This is due to the dependence of DNA methylation mechanism on compounds derived from dietary sources, such as choline and folate. Further, dietary components can influence epigenetic events and alter gene expression, thereby disrupting functions such as metabolic balance, appetite control and fuel utilization. Different organs have their unique developmental stages. Any compromise in their development can predispose individuals to certain diseases. The prenatal and perinatal periods are believed to be important stages where nutrition is most vital. However, nutritional intake during adulthood can also significantly affect the epigenome. Cancer is a disease that is most commonly associated with adult nutrition. There has been rapid progress in the understanding of the association between genes and nutrition in recent years. From theories to research to practical applications, case studies related to all contemporary topics of relevance to this domain have been included in this book. It is a complete source of knowledge on the present status of nutrigenomics.
"why I Became an Occupational Physician" and Other Occupational Health Stories
"Why I Became an Occupational Physician" and Other Occupational Health Stories brings together an edited collection of the short articles published in the journal Occupational Medicine between 2002 and 2018. The articles originally appeared as 'fillers', commissioned to literally 'fill' the blank spaces at the end of the main scientific papers, but they soon became a feature in their own right. Written by doctors working in occupational medicine and health, the fillers began as a series of pieces exploring the varied and often surprising reasons why the individuals chose to pursue this unique speciality, whether it was a natural career move, triggered by a specific event, or stumbled upon by chance. Over time the articles became much broader in their scope and the journal began to attract pieces from some brilliant writers: Mike Gibson, John Challenor, Nerys Williams, and of course the superlative Anthony Seaton, amongst many others. Each article offers something different: a peek into history, a humorous adventure, a quiet musing, or a thought-provoking observation, but all are tied together under the umbrella of occupational medicine, a speciality that is often little known or understood in the wider world of medicine. This book brings together over 15 years' worth of fascinating and diverse articles into one volume for the first time, giving a rare insight into the world of the occupational physician.

Diabetes Mellitus Und Essst繹rungen
An Diabetes leiden knapp 10% der deutschen Bev繹lkerung, der Gro?teil davon sind Menschen mit Typ-2-Diabetes. W瓣hrend die Behandlung des Typ-1-Diabetes 羹ber die Zufuhr von Insulin erfolgt, stehen bei der Behandlung des Typ-2 Diabetes zun瓣chst Lebensstil瓣nderungen und Ern瓣hrungsmanagement im Vordergrund. Greift die Behandlung nicht, so stehen orale Medikamente sowie Insulin als Therapieoptionen zur Verf羹gung. Komorbidit瓣ten wie das Vorliegen von Essst繹rungen erschweren die Behandlung des Diabetes und f羹hren zu teilweise schwerwiegenden k繹rperlichen Folgen. Dies gilt auch, wenn subklinische Essst繹rungen vorliegen. Es ist daher elementar, komorbide Essst繹rungen oder einen komorbiden Diabetes fr羹h zu identifizieren und diesen Patienten ein auf sie abgestimmtes Therapiekonzept anzubieten, welches die Behandlung des gest繹rten Essverhaltens und des Diabetes gleicherma?en einbezieht. Welche Zusammenh瓣nge zwischen Diabetes mellitus und Essst繹rungen gibt es? Wie lassen sich diese Erkenntnisse praktisch in die Beratung und Behandlung von Diabetespatienten einbeziehen? Was muss der Diabetologe 羹ber Essst繹rungen wissen? Was muss der Psychotherapeut 羹ber Diabetes wissen? Diese Fragen und mehr m繹chte das vorliegende Buchbeantworten und einen inhaltlich fundierten ?berblick 羹ber die verschiedenen, relevanten St繹rungsbilder und aktuellen Behandlungsmethoden des Diabetes unter Beachtung komorbider Essst繹rungen geben.

Bioremediation Technology for Plastic Waste
Plastic is one of the widely used polymers around the globe since its discovery. It is highly impossible to think the ease of life without the aid of plastic. Every year billion tons of plastic waste gets accumulated in the environment and leads to death of both marine and terrestrial animals. Plastic is very durable and needs around 1000 years to degrade under the natural environment. The present book illustrates the importance and significance of the bioremediation to tackle the problem of plastic waste. Previously, we have reported elite rhizobacterial isolates (Lysinibacillus fusiformis strain VASB14/WL and Bacillus cereus strain VASB1/TS) of Avicennia marina Vierh (Forsk.) from the West Coast of India with the potential to degrade plastic (polythene). The present book attempted to address the bioremediation scenario of plastic waste (including micro plastic) using microbes with bacteria in particular. Various strategies used to tackle with the plastic waste were highlighted with case studies of plastic waste management, including in vitro, in situ and ex situ with a special reference to biodegradation technology. After the biodegradation of the plastic using microbes, the generated plastic (polythene) degradation products (PE-DPs) were also documented using GC-MS technique followed by their deleterious effect on both animal and plant systems. The book also enhances the awareness of the plastic-free society and also suggests some alternative materials to be used instead of plastic. Lastly, the book suggests/recommends the strategies to be followed by the lawmakers in the government organizations/non-government organizations/social organizations to frame the regulations and guidelines to implement at mass level to reduce the generation of plastic waste.
