types of diabetes
Diabetes is a metabolic disease caused by high blood sugar levels due to the body's inability to properly process glucose. There are three main types of diabetes: Type 1 is an autoimmune disease where the body does not produce insulin and patients must inject insulin; Type 2 is more common in adults where the body does not properly use insulin; Gestational diabetes only occurs during pregnancy and usually resolves after giving birth but increases risk of later diabetes.
impact of fast food consumption on the diet of adults.

Food and nutrition
This document discusses the definitions and roles of nutrition and nutrients in relation to health. It defines nutrition as the science of food and nutrients and their interactions and balance in the body in relation to health and disease. Health is defined as complete physical, mental and social well-being, not just the absence of disease. The nutritional status of one's body is influenced by the foods consumed and their nutrient contents. Intakes of essential nutrients between deficient and excessive levels can impact health and toxicity. Maintaining adequate nutrient intake through diet is important for health.
Diabetic control
Experts say that consuming a few almonds daily can help combat diabetes, as eating almonds has been shown to positively affect cholesterol levels and insulin sensitivity. A study confirmed that a diet with 20% of calories from almonds over 16 weeks improved markers of insulin sensitivity and lowered LDL cholesterol in pre-diabetic adults. While almonds are a healthy source of fiber, protein and calories that can help control hunger and blood sugar, experts note they should only be seen as a percentage of total calorie intake, and not eaten without regard to the rest of one's diet.

Assignment #1 – This assignment should help you to organize your t.docx
Assignment #1 – This assignment should help you to organize your thoughts about your research. Take time to really think about the questions – this effort will make writing the actual paper much easier. Please complete this worksheet and submit on Bb. You need to submit only once per pair (make sure I know who you are working with!).
1. With your partner, develop a research question. Write your research question here:
*Please ensure that the question is not answered by the book’s author.
Question is. "How has the development in human society led to the increased frequency of obesity?"
2. Why do you have this question? Please write a paragraph or two explaining your interest in this question. Give specific information from the book that leads you to ask this question (include page numbers). Explain how this information relates to your question.
Obesity in the whole world has become a public health problem in that it has raised concern. About 700 million people aged 15 years and above in the entire world are obese. The prevalence rate of based on years past shows a rapid increase of obesity in developed countries mainly Pacific region. Various cancers, cardiovascular diseases-morbidities, type II diabetes are some of the factors which lead to morbidity and mortality; this is based on literature on body exhaustive.
A public health strategy is, therefore, to be developed based on prevention of obesity rate of increase. The development and also the process of policies on preventing obesity should target factors which tend to contribute to obesity. Moreover, it should target barriers to lifestyle changes which are personal and also environmental and levels socioeconomic.
There are etiologies which contribute to obesity in which this etiologies are multifactorial,some if these factors include sedentary lifestyle, adverse socio-economic conditions which are there in developed countries, high rate of energy dense food, rigid restraint, alcohol, large portion sizes and food ratio which are prepared outside home (mostly in developed countries) page 70 (International journal of environmental research and public health).
There is a proposed framework by sacks (2009) where a suggestion is made that there should be policy actions and implementation of health strategies to preventing obesity. These factors target environments, behaviors directly influencing people, physical activity settings, food environments and also the socioeconomic environments.
3. What do you need to learn as a biologist to understand your question in the context of human evolution?
Obesity, diabetes and also metabolic syndrome has become a worldwide health concern due to that they are growing rapidly, and their causes are not fully understood. Therefore a research into the obesity epidemic etiology is highly appreciated depending on the evolutionary roots of metabolic control. Thrifty gene hypothesis argues that obesity is an evolutionary roots of metabolic control .

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.The Electrocardiogram - Physiologic Principles

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
