Green Leaf and Cancer
This document discusses how green leafy vegetables can decrease cancer risk. It notes that diet is linked to about one-third of cancer cases in the US. Phytochemicals in plants like greens may reduce cancer risk. Greens contain vitamins A and C, fiber, and beneficial phytochemicals, which can lower the risk of cancers like colon cancer. The document recommends including 3-4 servings of dark green leafy vegetables per week to gain these benefits.
Grain fact sheet and cancer
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the US, killing 1 in 4 Americans each year. Diet may be linked to as much as one-third of all cancer cases. Phytochemicals found naturally in plants may decrease cancer risk. Whole grains contain phytochemicals like fiber, vitamins, minerals, and phytoestrogens that research has shown can lower cancer risk. The document recommends including 1-2 servings of whole grains like bulgur, barley, brown rice, oats, quinoa, or corn daily for their cancer-fighting properties.
Garlic fact sheet and cancer
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the US, killing 1 in 4 Americans each year. Diet may be linked to as much as one-third of cancer deaths, and components in plants called phytochemicals may decrease cancer risk. Garlic contains the phytochemical allicin which may reduce cancer risk by helping enzymes destroy cancer-causing substances. The document recommends including garlic in your diet several times per week to help decrease cancer risk.
Tomato fact sheet
Cancer is a leading cause of death in the US, killing 1 in 4 Americans each year. Diet may be linked to about one-third of cancer cases. Tomatoes contain the phytochemical lycopene, which research shows may reduce cancer risk, especially prostate cancer risk. Lycopene is absorbed better when tomato foods are cooked with oil. The document recommends including several servings of tomato foods like fresh tomatoes, canned tomatoes, tomato sauce, and tomato soup each week to help decrease cancer risk.
Soy and cancer
This document summarizes the relationship between diet, soy foods, and cancer risk. It notes that diet may be linked to one-third of cancer cases in the US and certain phytochemicals in plants like soy can decrease cancer risk. Soy contains isoflavones that may lower the risk of breast, prostate, and colon cancers. The document recommends including a soy food like tofu, edamame, or soymilk at least once a week in your diet to help reduce cancer risk.
Hearthealthy foods
This document discusses functional foods and their impact on heart health. It defines functional foods as conventional foods that provide additional health benefits. Several foods are identified as having dietary sources associated with reduced heart disease risk, including oats, soy, fish, and red wine. Studies show oats containing beta-glucan can lower cholesterol, while soy protein and fish omega-3 fatty acids also positively impact heart health markers. Tea and red wine consumption may reduce cardiovascular mortality through their antioxidant effects. While evidence supports links between these functional foods and heart health, more research is still needed.
Malnutrition in the hospital
This document discusses malnutrition in hospitalized patients. It provides background on malnutrition, its causes and symptoms. It then summarizes several studies that were conducted to better understand malnutrition in hospitals. The studies looked at factors like food intake, nutritional status, reasons for poor intake, and interventions to address malnutrition. They involved patients from a range of age groups, from infants to the elderly. The studies highlighted how common malnutrition is in hospitals and its negative impacts on patient outcomes like increased mortality. They stressed the importance of early identification and treatment of malnutrition.
Malnutrition in the hospital
The document discusses malnutrition in hospital patients. It describes how malnutrition can occur due to inadequate diet, digestion issues, or medical conditions. Left untreated, malnutrition can lead to complications and death. Studies show patients who eat less in the hospital have higher mortality rates. Reasons elderly patients eat inadequately in the hospital include illness, appetite loss, oral issues, and menu limitations. Dysphagia is another risk factor for malnutrition. Tube feedings and IV nutrition can help supplement intake for those unable to eat. Early nutrition intervention may help prevent malnutrition in hospitals.

One hundred million dollars
The document compares the scale of large sums of money like $100 million, $1 billion, $15 trillion, and $114.5 trillion to physical objects and structures.

It encourages visiting a debt clock website to better understand the magnitude of the national debt.

Key foods to focus on include 8 ounces of milk or yogurt, 2-3 ounces of meat or beans, 6 ounces of fruit or vegetable juice, and 1 small roll or half cup of cooked grains.
Babys1st
Most babies only need breast milk or formula for the first 6 months. After 6 months, solid foods such as rice cereal, vegetables, fruits and meats can be gradually introduced, starting with single foods for a week before introducing combinations. Babies' diets should continue being tailored to their individual readiness and nutritional needs throughout the first year. Certain foods like honey, uncut hot dogs and raw carrots pose choking hazards for infants and should be avoided.
Eatingoutguide
Fast food can be part of a healthy diet if you make wise choices. Ask for salad dressings and sauces on the side so you control how much you use. Choose grilled chicken sandwiches or fish instead of burgers and fries. Share entrees or take half home for later. With a little planning, fast food does not need to derail your healthy eating.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
MERCURY GROUP.BHMS.MATERIA MEDICA.HOMOEOPATHY
Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.
