How to make awesome gourmet sauerkraut at home!
Credits go to Jake (RawUtah) and Patchie for introducing me to fermentation! I show you how to make awesome gourmet sauerkraut at home! The ingredients I use is: A head and a half of Red Cabbage, 1/2 a head of Green Cabbage, 1 cup of Celery, 1/2 cup or so of Red Onion, a whole cup or more of Cilantro, 4 tablespoons or more of Sea Vegetables, 1/4 to 1/2 cup of Fresh Ginger, 2 tablespoons or so of Celery Seeds, 3 tablespoons of Fennel Seeds and 2 tablespoons of Turmeric *use fresh if you have some* I used them in a powdered form. And 4-5 tablespoons or so Sea Salt! Do not use iodine as it inhibits the fermentation process! This is a variation of their own kraut called Killa Kraut! Check out their videos below!!! Pure Joy Town Fermentation Series: KILLA Kraut http://www.youtube.com Pure Joy Town: KERMIT THEE KRAUT (Make your own sauerkraut!) http://www.youtube.com Upcoming Free Fermentation Classes by Pure Joy Town http://www.purejoytown.com Enjoy! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SOME INTERESTING HISTORY OF SAUERKRAUT: The fermentation process used to make sauerkraut was probably first developed centuries ago simply as a means of preserving vegetables for easy consumption throughout the winter. The health benefits derived from pickling vegetables were already well-known to early civilizations. Historical evidence suggests laborers on the Great Wall of China consumed a version of the pickled cabbage dish 2000 years ago ...

NIH Fellowship Supports Work on Protein Receptors at South Dakota State University

Posted on by

Newswise It looks like a neon light show-- pink, blue and magenta squiggles dancing in the darkness. These are not just pretty pictures, but protein receptors interacting within the membrane of a living cell. And to South Dakota State University cell biologist Shalini Low-Nam, they are an incredible sight and possibly an important step in understanding how diseases such as cancer affect the cells.

This is something that could not be done five or 10 years ago because the tools to do it did not exist, said Low-Nam, a postdoctoral research associate in the chemistry and biochemistry department. It was the unique tools available in assistant professor Adam Hoppes laboratory that drew Low-Nam to SDSU in October 2011 after completing her doctorate in biomedical sciences at the University of New Mexico.

In recognition of her potential as a researcher, Low-Nam has earned the prestigious National Institutes of Health Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award, which will support her work for the next two years.

This fellowship recognizes her potential as a future leading scientist, said Hoppe. I am incredibly fortunate to have her in my lab.

Low-Nams work will focus on a protein receptor called the macrophage colony stimulating factor or MCSF receptor, which controls the growth and development of the macrophage, a type of white blood cell.

Macrophages serve as one of the bodys defense mechanisms, Low-Nam explained. For her study, a lab technician takes bone marrow from mice and then allows them to mature into macrophages because they serve as a good model for human macrophages.

Macrophages go in and out of the blood to search out bacteria and viruses that require removal, she said. When they find them, they eat and digest the bacteria and other pathogens, thereby removing them from the body.

This transdisciplinary research is aimed at understanding the biochemical pathways in cells, Hoppe explained. Low-Nam will integrate ideas from chemistry, mathematics, physics and optics.

Shes an expert on this, said Hoppe, and an up-and-coming leader in the field. During her doctoral program, Low-Nam worked with single particle tracking, which looks at the motion of individual particles or molecules within the cell and its environment. She will combine this with other fluorescence-based strategies that allow her to tag specific proteins with substances and make them glow.

The lasers on Hoppes microscope then light up the fluorescent tags on the protein receptors, so she can see how they interact with one another and the cell membrane. This one-of-a-kind microscope lets her view as many as four different molecules at once, Low-Nam explained.

Experts claim, babies source of stem cells

Posted on by

BEAUTY at the expense of babies.

With this, the Philippine Society for Stem Cell Medicine (PSSCM) gave another reason for Filipinos to stop patronizing the emerging stem cell therapy in the country revealing that some of them are actually sourced from human babies.

In a statement, PSSCM Spokesman Dr. Leo Olarte disclosed that it has come to their knowledge that there are a number of cases, where the stem cells used for several anti-aging procedures and other medical treatments are actually acquired from babies, with some even from elective abortion abroad.

With this in mind and realizing that we can consider this as exploitation of other human beings for personal benefit, we ask ourselves if this is an ethical and moral medical procedure, Olarte said.

We cannot stand by and merely watch how they exploit people in poverty just to profit while allowing others who are economically well off to benefit from this, he furthered.

He said the information came after they attended a scientific forum in the United States that tackled the issue of human commoditization for commercial and economic purposes.

The Philippine Medical Association (PMA) noted how human fetus harvesting for stem cell transplant, also known as allogenic sourced-out stem cells, has become prevalent in countries like the Ukraine, Switzerland, Russia, and Malaysia.

Last month, the PSSCM had already raised concerns over the risks of complications, and possibly death, from stem cell treatments.

The PSSCM had said that stem cell patients run the risk of graft-versus-host disease (allogeneic transplant only), stem cell (graft) failure, organ injury, infections, cataracts, infertility, new cancers, and death.

Stem cell therapy is a type of intervention strategy that introduces new adult stem cells into damaged tissue in order to treat disease or injury.

Stretching Physiology, Techniques and More
This Seminar-on-Demand by Peggy Lamb, MA, LMT, NCTMB, focuses on a part of massage therapy that is frequently left out -- the table stretches that are an integral part of rehabilitative and Swedish massage. Skilled stretching techniques re-educate muscles and restore healthy resting lengths, as well as add variety to a bodywork session. With proper body mechanics, stretching is easy on the therapist #39;s body and decreases strain on the hands. Stretching also adds an element of expansion into a bodywork session for both the therapist and the client. When we #39;re stretched we feel longer, wider, more alive.
