Cell Signalling and Molecular hydrogenIan Hamilton
Ìý
Cell signaling involves the release of molecules that transmit signals between cells to maintain homeostasis. Hydrogen gas has been shown to act as a cell signaling molecule by modulating the activity of enzymes involved in cell signaling pathways. Specifically, molecular hydrogen inhibits the phosphorylation of enzymes like ASK1 and JNK that are activated in response to oxidative stress and inflammation. It also attenuates the phosphorylation of enzymes involved in the allergic response. These effects suggest hydrogen gas influences cell signaling pathways indirectly as a modulator, though its specific molecular targets are still unknown.Why I LOVE H2

This document compares three water ionizers: AlkaStream, Minwell, and UltraStream. UltraStream is designed and manufactured by AlkaWay in the USA using NSF, EPA, and EU approved materials. It can filter more contaminants than the other models, produces the highest levels of hydrogen, and has the longest filter life at 12 months. The UltraStream also has more environmentally friendly features and the strongest warranty, at 3 years from the manufacturer. AlkaStream and Minwell, which are imported from China, have weaker performance, environmental, and warranty credentials compared to the UltraStream.Cell signalling

Going Paleo is difficult, especially for older bodies, as it requires changing from a glucose-burning to a fat-burning metabolism. The author recalls feeling depressed and emotionally turbulent during the difficult four-week transition period when their body and mind started shifting to the new way of eating. Friends and family challenged and doubted the change, making it even harder. Both the big lifestyle change and uncertainty that it would solve their health problems added to the difficulty.Why is going on a Paleo diet like childbirth?

Going on a Paleo diet is like childbirth because people forget how difficult the transition was. The author recalls feeling depressed and in emotional turmoil during the first 4 weeks as their body and mind shifted to a new way of eating and burning fat instead of glucose. While uncertain if the diet would help their medical issues, the author persisted for 6 months despite friends doubting them and their husband expressing concern that it wasn't helping.Finale of the Italian odyssey: The Evolutionary Alkaline Paleo diet

The document discusses the spread of the standard American diet (SAD) and related health issues like diabetes globally, including to Southeast Asia. It notes Thailand's traditionally healthier foods are being replaced by wheat and sugar snacks, leading to similar health problems as Western countries. The author believes more people will adopt the Paleo diet as its health benefits become clear. They provide an example of an Italian author who significantly lost weight and reversed pre-diabetes by following a low-carb diet, even changing recipes in her cookbooks. The conclusion is it's time to change diets back to our ancestral practices for better health.Italian Odyssey Part 4

- The author describes how as a medical student and doctor, he was taught to prescribe low-fat, low-cholesterol diets and medications without questioning their effectiveness. When these diets failed his own patients and himself, he began to question this approach.
- He realized medical training focuses on following established practices, rather than thinking critically about what works. This prevents doctors from considering that recommended diets may be incorrect.
- The author now believes low-carb, high-fat diets are more effective based on his clinical experience, contradicting what he was taught. However, most doctors continue prescribing the standard approach due to their medical indoctrination.Italian Odyssey Part 4

He describes how medical training focuses on treating symptoms with medications rather than questioning why underlying health issues exist. As a medical student and resident, he was taught to prescribe low-fat diets without critically examining their effectiveness.

The document summarizes an excerpt from a book by Dr. James Carlson about his medical training and subsequent realization that the low-fat, low-cholesterol diet advice he had been giving patients was incorrect. He describes how medical training focuses on using medications rather than diet to treat diseases. As a medical student and resident, he was only taught nutrition for two weeks and instructed to advise low-fat diets without questioning their effectiveness. When he tried the diet himself and his own health markers worsened, he realized the diet advice was incorrect. However, he continues, medical professionals are "indoctrinated" not to think critically but to advise what they are taught, leading to poor health advice and outcomes for many patients.Italian Odyssey Part 4

It discusses how medical training focuses on treating symptoms with medications rather than addressing underlying causes with diet. Dr. Carlson realized the standard diet advice was not working for his patients and did not work for himself, but it took him years to question the teachings due to the nature of medical education which emphasizes rote learning over independent, critical thinking.Italian Odyssey Part 4

The document discusses the author's journey learning about stomach acid and hypochlorhydria. It describes how the author became obsessed with understanding why stomach acid levels become low. The author believes asking why problems occur is important, rather than just treating symptoms. The excerpt from the book discusses how the author was previously taught the wrong information about diet as a medical student and treated patients with low-fat diets that did not work. The author questions why he did not think to ask why the diets were not effective and instead just prescribed medications. He realizes it was due to being "indoctrinated" in medical school to think a certain way rather than think freely.Italian Odyssey Part 4

Dr. Carlson describes how he was taught to prescribe low-fat diets to patients, even though he knew they often did not work. He realized he had been "indoctrinated" to not question the standard advice, and to immediately prescribe medications if diets failed. Dr. Carlson tried a low-fat diet himself when his health markers were abnormal, and found that his health declined further.

He wanted to understand the root cause of low stomach acidity rather than just treating the symptoms. The author believes he has discovered the answer to the epidemic of low stomach acidity. The excerpt then discusses a book by Dr. Carlson that criticizes medical training for not teaching doctors to ask "why" and instead just treating symptoms.
