Re: Fish Oil
Okay, so I had an eye exam yesterday and have a common case of dry eye. The ophthalmologist suggested I take Physician Recommended Nutraceuticals' De (dry eye) fish oil formula. It's a bit pricey and I figured I could find something comparable for less. Along the way I noticed these things and I'm n...

Re: E4 in Evolution
I'm having trouble reconciling E4 as a "subject for selection" (means "selected for" means "evolved out of natural selection"?) when it's the "ancestral" allele. Or are they saying their hypothesis if proven would overturn the ancestral allele status? Or what ...

Re: Hormone Replacement Therapy E4 Women
I guess if this woman's right I wasn't too far off thinking doctors are trying to use antidepressants as a fallback in light of studies on synthetic hormones. http://www.healthline.com/health-blogs/hold-that-pause/fda-advises-against-antidepressants-for-hot-flashes Meanwhile, here's the North Americ...

Re: Hormone Replacement Therapy E4 Women
Can't say for sure. I was under the impression that overall women are being told not to use HRT of any kind based on the studies using synthetic versions. I had the impression that rather than turning to bioidenticals, many doctors are instead turning to 1) encouraging lifestyle changes (a good but ...

Re: Hormone Replacement Therapy E4 Women
Let's not forget the need for research to be on bioidenticals too, as we communicate with her. I'm sure because synthetic are more widespread they feel studying that may impact more women, but we need the truth about bios. Testing only one form does nothing for overall clarity. If the results are ne...

Re: Hormone Replacement Therapy E4 Women
Not only will not enough time have elapsed in five years for good longitudinal studies, I wonder if any HRT studies including genotypes are based on bioidenticals. I doubt that, and not likely to happen soon. Maybe Brinton's crowd can be convinced to at least to petri dish studies of brain tissue/ne...

Re: Radio Frequency Exposures
Thanks for that explanation. Only thing about heating protein with less water is I've always read it's high and dry heat that causes the advanced glycation end products. I usually steam my fish (occassional chicken), either in a steamer or in a countertop oven, at low heat. My very infrequent bison ...
