Content: As the Islands' sugar industry grew, large numbers of contract laborers were imported first from China, then from Japan and other countries, to work on the plantations -- the beginning of Hawai`i's present multicultural population. Plantation ownership and control of the business community were in the hands of men of American or European blood. King Kalakaua was forced to sign the Bayonet Constitution in 1887, sharply curtailing his powers and diminishing the Native Hawaiians' voice in government. ( Hawai`i Visitors Bureau)
In 1887, during the reign of Lili`uokalani' s brother, King Kalakaua, a group of planters and businessmen, seeking to control the kingdom politically as well as economically, formed a secret organization, the Hawaiian League. Membership (probably never over 400, compared to the 40,000 Native Hawaiians in the kingdom) was predominantly American, including several missionary descendants. Organizer and fire brand of the league was Lorrin A. Thurston, a lawyer and missionary grandson, who would later be a leader in the overthrow of the monarchy, with many of the same men. Lorrin Thurston , grandson of American missionaries, was the firebrand behind the revolution against the Hawaiian Monarchy. ( Hawai`i State Archives)
Their goal, for now, was to "reform" the monarchy. But reform, like beauty, was in the eye of the beholder. The Native Hawaiians looked up to their sovereigns with respect and aloha.

Content: Commentary: How We Can Prevent Genocide
June 6, 2003
Introduction
A few words on Gregory Stanton's excellent analysis below. It stands at the center of work by scholars on genocide, and makes the essential point that we all should take to heart-early warning is not enough; we must create and foster the international institutions to predict and prevent it. And he does mention the role of democracy, but if I may offer my only criticism, tends to bury it among other factors. Work and data on this website, however, well show that democracy is at the center. The way to solve the horror of mass murder by tyrants is to foster democratic freedom. The international institutions that we should promote are those uniting and organizing democracies as an international force toward this end (see commentary 6/17/03 ). June 9, 2003
HOW WE CAN PREVENT GENOCIDE
Building An International Campaign
to End Genocide
By Dr. Gregory H. Stanton
President, Genocide Watch
When the Genocide Convention was passed by the United Nations in 1948, the world said, "Never again." But the history of the twentieth century instead proved that "never again" became "again and again."

When the Genocide Convention was passed by the United Nations in 1948, the world said, "Never again." But the history of the twentieth century instead proved that "never again" became "again and again." The promise the United Nations made was broken, as again and again, genocides and other forms of mass murder killed 170 million people, more than all the international wars of the twentieth century combined.

Why? Why are there still genocides? Why are there genocidal massacres going on right now in southern Sudan by the Sudanese government against Dinka, Nuer, and Nuba; in eastern Burma by the Burmese government against the Karen; in the Democratic Republic of the Congo by both government and rebel forces against Tutsis, Banyamulenge, Hutus, Hema, and Lendu? Why has ethnic and religious hatred again reached the boiling point in Israel and Palestine; Côte d'Ivoire, and Burundi? There are two reasons why genocide is still committed in the world: The world has not developed the international institutions needed to predict and prevent it.

But studying genocide is not enough.

Four institutions are needed: centers for early warning, programs for conflict transformation, standing forces for rapid intervention, and international courts for effective punishment. 1. The U.N. Security Council and key governments need strong, independent Early Warning systems to predict where and when ethnic conflict and genocide are going to occur, and to present policy options on prevention and intervention.

Selected country desk officers and top officials of the U.N. system now hold monthly "Framework for Coordination" to discuss current crises, but inadequate staffing prevents long-range strategic planning. There is not a single person at the United Nations whose responsible for genocide early warning and prevention. Who do you call? Ghostbusters.

Title: Commentary: How We Can Prevent Genocide
Headings:
Content: It is not genocide yet (stage seven), but it is very, very close. If Saddam Hussein, the Hezbollah, and al Queda had their way, genocide - a new Holocaust - would begin. We can also see the "us versus them" thinking in "axis of evil" ideology. It is bad theology. One of the crucial lessons of sound theology is that the division between good and evil is not vertical, between "us and them." It is horizontal, with every human being having the capacity for both good and evil. The Nazi Holocaust was among the most evil genocides in history. But the Allies' firebombing of Dresden and nuclear destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were also war crimes - and as Leo Kuper and Eric Markusen have argued, also acts of genocide. We are all capable of evil and must be restrained by law [I would say, democratic freedom -Rummel] from committing it. Early Warning is not enough.

The UNAMIR commander, General Roméo Dallaire learned of the plans for the genocide three months before it began, had conclusive evidence of massive shipments of half a million machetes to arm the killers, and knew of the training camps for the Interahamwe genocidists.

Mental Illness and Homelessness: Facts and Figures
By Mingu Kim '18 | Staff Writer
← Walk In Their Shoes: Homeless and Severely Mental Ill
Content: Studies show that psychotic homeless individuals have a higher chance of being physically assaulted. A study in Baltimore showed that nearly one-third of homeless women had been raped. Unfortunately, because of the increase in factors such as substance abuse, mentally ill, homeless individuals are more likely to be incarcerated. In fact, every single state in the United States arrests more mentally ill people than it hospitalizes. In one report, it was found that 17.3% of prison inmates with severe mental illness were homeless prior to being arrested and 40% were homeless at one point in their lives, compared to 6% of undiagnosed inmates. Homelessness and incarceration increases the risk of each other through a positive feedback loop, causing a cycle of hardship and uncertainty. This cycle that these individuals face between living on the streets and in prison causes emotional, financial, and physical stress for their families and the community at large. Therefore, mental health programs should provide plans for both treatment and housing. It has been shown that both treatment without housing and housing without treatment are ineffective for homeless individuals with mental illness. Services that aim to achieve serious improvement need to address both treatment and housing.

7 Celebrities Who Have Freed the Nipple on Social Media
And look damn good doing it. By Samantha Lauriello

In 2012, filmmaker Lina Esco began working on Free The Nipple, a film about a group of women determined to end the censorship of women's breasts. Though activists had already launched a movement to normalize female breasts in public spaces, Esco's film made it an official and more widespread campaign. Around the time the movie came out in 2014, celebs like Miley Cyrus, Cara Delevingne, and Lena Dunham took to social media to show their support for the movement—and they're still behind it to this day. The #FreeTheNipple hashtag now has over 4 million posts on Instagram, and every so often, a celeb will share a new picture proudly showing off their nipple. Why are people fighting to free the nipple? Some want it to be just as acceptable for women to expose their nipples in public as it is for men; others are protesting laws that prevent women, but not men, from going topless. It's also about ensuring that women have ownership over how they choose to present their bodies to the world.

Content: Digestive problems
One of most common complaints from patients taking antibiotics is gastrointestinal issues like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, says Kate Dzintars, PharmD, a clinical pharmacy specialist at Johns Hopkins Medicine. “ There is a condition called antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and we council patients to be on the lookout for that,” she says. Drinking plenty of fluids and avoiding high-fiber foods may help patients cope until they’ve finished their course of medication. If diarrhea becomes severe, it could be a more serious condition called clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea. “ This happens when the antibiotic has killed the good bacteria in the gut and the bad bacteria has overgrown,” says Dzintars. This condition can cause dehydration and may require hospitalization, so call your doctor if you’re experiencing watery diarrhea several times a day. Antibiotics can also cause an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine, which can contribute to bloating and cramping that continues even after you’ve stopped taking them. This type of infection usually requires more (but different) antibiotics to bring the gut’s bacterial balance back to normal. Headaches
Headaches are another common complaint from people taking antibiotics. “ If you have a headache and you don’t think it’s from sleep deprivation or caffeine deprivation, it certainly could be the antibiotic you’re taking,” says Dzintars.

Can Your Sugar Habit Explain Your Chronic Yeast Infections?
Two gynecologists decode the connection.
Content: How to Ease Your Withdrawal Symptoms When You Quit Sugar, According to a Nutritionist
There’s actually a link between recurring yeast infections and the amount of sugar in your diet, says Jessica Shepherd, MD, an assistant professor of clinical obstetrics and gynecology and director of minimally invasive gynecology at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Chicago. “ When there’s too much sugar in the body, the immune system becomes suppressed and unable to ward off any bad bacteria; that can lead to an overgrowth of yeast in the vagina,” she explains. The key word is overgrowth. All women have yeast, or candida albicans, in their vaginal area; it exists symbiotically with lactobacilli, a type of bacteria. “ When those are both maintained, you’re fine,” says Lakeisha Richardson, MD, an ob-gyn in Greenville, MS. “ But when one grows more quickly than the other, that’s when you typically develop a yeast or bacterial infection .” But what exactly does the food you put in your mouth have to do with what’s going on in your vagina? Whatever we eat is broken down and ends up in our bloodstream so we can either use it or excrete it, explains Dr. Richardson.

I Passed a Yeast Infection to My Partner Through Sex, and It Wasn’t Pretty
Content: Sure enough, although yeast infections are not sexually transmitted infections, it is possible to pass them to a partner: According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Service's Office on Women's Health, about 15% of men develop symptoms such as an itchy rash after having sex with a woman who has the infection. Other yeast infection symptoms in men can include redness, a burning sensation, and patches of shiny, white skin on the penis. Although vaginal sex is the most likely method of transmission, it's not the only one you have to consider. "If a woman or man is giving oral sex to a partner with a yeast infection, there is the chance of yeast spreading into the oral cavity, called thrush or oral thrush," says Sherry A. Ross, MD, a Los Angeles-based ob-gyn and author of Sheology. Symptoms like an itchy, irritated mouth with white patches or sores might point to oral thrush. Since the vagina is a warm breeding ground for bacteria and yeast, do two female partners have a higher risk of passing a yeast infection to each other?Suzanne Fenske, MD, assistant professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai tells us that if vaginal fluids are exchanged, such as through shared sex toys, thereis a small risk of this. Regardless of how you contracted it, make an appointment with your doctor to confirm that your symptoms are in fact a yeast infection and get prescribed treatment. Dr. Fenske also suggests saline solution bathing, because it creates an environment that's particularly for healing. As for other down-there issues such as urinary tract infections (UTIs) and bacterial vaginosis (BV), can you also transmit those through intercourse?

As for other down-there issues such as urinary tract infections (UTIs) and bacterial vaginosis (BV), can you also transmit those through intercourse? While you can develop a UTI after sex (the urethra is right next to the vagina, so bacteria in the vagina can transfer to the urethra and bladder, triggering an infection), you can't pass it to a partner, experts say. With BV, the environment in the vagina may be affected by intercourse. " Semen can change the pH of the vagina, which can result in the ratio of the perfect balance of good versus bad bacteria [changing], which can result in the symptoms of bacterial vaginosis," explains Orlando-based ob-gyn Christine Greves, MD, a fellow of the American Association of Obstetrics and Gynecology. You can't pass BV to a male partner, she adds, but two female partners may transfer it to each other, such as by sharing sex toys. And what if you have a yeast infection and really, really want to have sex? (

Yeast naturally lives on the skin and in the mouth, gut, and vagina. They are part of the microbiota of “good” germs that keep people healthy. But when these microscopic, single-celled organisms run rampant, they can trigger an infection—and some very unpleasant symptoms. A yeast infection is a treatable medical condition caused by an overgrowth of yeast in the body. A weakened immune system, certain health conditions, some lifestyle habits, and antibiotics may up your risk of developing a yeast infection. The most common cause of yeast infections is a fungus called Candida albicans. This candida fungus is responsible for “candidiasis” infections of the vagina, mouth, and skin.

Vaginal yeast infections are irritating and uncomfortable. Symptoms of yeast infections in women can include itching and burning. Women may notice some redness and swelling of the vulva. Sometimes women with yeast infections also experience pain with urination or while having sex.

Content: Over-the-counter treatments make it possible to initiate treatment without seeing a doctor. But if you’re uncertain whether or not you have a yeast infection, public health officials stress the importance of meeting with your doctor first for an accurate diagnosis. Other vaginal infections (such as bacterial vaginosis) and some sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) may have similar symptoms, but require different treatment. Left untreated, these infections can cause other health problems. What’s more, repeated use of antifungal medicines when you don’t have a yeast infection may make yeast resistant to treatment in the future. Signs of yeast infections include: Itching
Burning
Thick white discharge
Redness and swelling of the vagina and vulva
Soreness
Pain during sex
Pain with urination

Content: However, women may self-diagnose themselves incorrectly; other vaginal infections such as bacterial vaginosis may present similar symptoms, so it’s a good idea to call your doctor before reaching for an over-the-counter treatment, especially if you’ve never had a yeast infection before. A woman who sees her doctor about vaginal symptoms can expect to have a pelvic exam. The doctor will look for swelling and discharge. He or she may use a cotton swab to get a sample of vaginal secretions for examination under a microscope. That test can tell your doctor whether there is an overgrowth of yeast. Oral candidiasis, or thrush, is usually diagnosed based on symptoms (like white or yellow patches on the tongue or in the mouth; cracks in the corner of the mouth; redness; and pain).

Content: Even if you think your vaginal infection is due to an overgrowth of yeast, it’s smart to speak with your doctor first. The discomfort you’re having could be caused by something entirely different, and starting medication for a yeast infection incorrectly could delay your treatment. If you are pregnant, see a doctor before starting any treatment. And consult your health care provider if your symptoms are not improving after treatment. If you are experiencing chronic or recurring yeast infections, your doctor may diagnose and prescribe treatment for non- Candida albicans yeast infections. Back to top

That are in my life are the only reason I don’t go through with it.

One doesn’t have to have major depressive disorder, bipolar or any other technical mental illness to be suffering and have chronic suicidal thoughts. Maybe circumstances such as brain surgery that have left someone with cognitive deficits and an altered personality could do it. Especially when you have a fast-paced, high stress job and your employer (who employs over 10000 people) refuses to make reasonable accommodations for you even with pages and pages of medical documentation from your neurologist and neurosurgeon. I’m sure mental illness is no picnic, but neither is recovering from a temporal lobe resection and brain tumor excision while working 60 hours a week just to meet performance expectations. And the accompanying stress seizures and epileptic seizures that remain that I simply have to “work through” leave me feeling hopeless. “

Content: However, It is very nice to know that now a days many people around the world are busy in the promotion and publication of issues related to mental health. People suffering from such diseases are generally reluctant to go for their complete medical check up because they believe they are not ill. Women seeking abortions, soldiers fighting immoral wars and even our teenagers are more likely to suffer. Mental health issues ultimately result in family dysfunction. I suggest to all to take advantage of a dedicated team of mental health specialists without which it is almost impossible to cope with this rapidly emerging issue of the society.

I lost my only son to suicide when he was 24. He suffered from depression for many years and saw a number of psychologists. He learned how to tell the doctors exactly what they wanted to hear. He was suicidial many times through the years and after treatment the doctors said he was fine,good, etc… I knew he was suffering but things seemed better and I really didn’t see it coming.

Content: Every suicide, like every person, is different. Many are sparked by intense feelings of anger, despair, hopelessness, or panic. Things that can put an individual at a higher risk for suicide in the short term include: an episode of depression, psychosis, or anxiety
a significant loss, such as the death of a partner or the loss of a job
a personal crisis or life stress, especially one that increases a sense of isolation or leads to a loss of self-esteem, such as a breakup or divorce
loss of social support, for example, because of a move or when a close friend relocates
an illness or medication that triggers a change in mood
exposure to the suicidal behaviors of others, such as friends, peers, or celebrities. We all face crises or problems like these. One difference is that among individuals who take their own lives, these situations cause such pain or hopelessness they can’t see any other way out. Suicide without warnings
Suicide almost always raises anguished questions among family members and friends left behind: What did I miss? What could I have done? In my friend’s case, the answers are nothing and nothing.

You take medication hoping it will make you feel better. But sometimes it makes you feel worse. " Nausea is one of the most common side effects of medications we hear about," says Joanne Doyle Petrongolo, a pharmacist at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. About nausea
Nausea is a queasy feeling in your stomach — you may feel seasick, or you may feel you're about to vomit.

It's not uncommon to feel disorganized and forgetful when you're under a lot of stress. But over the long term, stress may actually change your brain in ways that affect your memory. Studies in both animals and people show pretty clearly that stress can affect how the brain functions, says Dr. Kerry Ressler, chief scientific officer at McLean Hospital and professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. Scientists have seen changes in how the brain processes information when people experience either real-life stress or stress manufactured in a research setting. ( For the latter, researchers might challenge subjects to perform a difficult task, such as counting backward from the number 1,073 by 13s while being graded.) Either type of stress seems to interfere with cognition, attention, and memory, he says. Stress affects not only memory and many other brain functions, like mood and anxiety, but also promotes inflammation, which adversely affects heart health, says Jill Goldstein, a professor of psychiatry and medicine at Harvard Medical School. Thus, stress has been associated with multiple chronic diseases of the brain and heart.

Content: Accidental deaths, homicides, and binge drinking spike in the teenage years. It's the time of life when psychosis, eating disorders, and addictions are most likely to take hold. Surveys show that everyday unhappiness also reaches its peak in late adolescence. Plenty of explanations for teenage turmoil are available. Adolescents need to assert their independence and explore their limits, taking risks, breaking rules, and rebelling against their parents while still relying on them for support and protection. (" What's the matter with the older generation?") They have to cope with disconcerting new sexual impulses and romantic feelings. Cultural change heightens incompatibility between the generations. Now scientific research is suggesting a new reason for the clashes between teenagers and their environment. Unsettled moods and unsettling behavior may be rooted in uneven brain development.

Content: In separate studies, the investigators found that people with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia were more likely — to a modest but statistically significant degree — to commit assaults or other violent crimes when compared with people in the general population. Differences in the rates of violence narrowed, however, when the researchers compared patients with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia with their unaffected siblings. This suggested that shared genetic vulnerability or common elements of social environment, such as poverty and early exposure to violence, were at least partially responsible for violent behavior. However, rates of violence increased dramatically in those with a dual diagnosis (see "Rates of violence compared"). Taken together with the MacArthur study, these papers have painted a more complex picture about mental illness and violence. They suggest that violence by people with mental illness — like aggression in the general population — stems from multiple overlapping factors interacting in complex ways. These include family history, personal stressors (such as divorce or bereavement), and socioeconomic factors (such as poverty and homelessness). Substance abuse is often tightly woven into this fabric, making it hard to tease apart the influence of other less obvious factors. Rates of violence compared

We tend to think of grieving as an emotional experience, and it is — fraught with intense sadness, profound loss, and psychological pain. But grief has a physical side that sets us up for a number of health risks. " Most of these side effects are the result of emotional distress responses," explains Dr. Maureen Malin, a geriatric psychiatrist with Harvard-affiliated McLean Hospital. Whether you're grieving the loss of a loved one, a job, a home, or a beloved pet, it's important to understand how the process puts your health in jeopardy. Stress and grief
Grieving takes a toll on the body in the form of stress. " That affects the whole body and all organ systems, and especially the immune system," Dr. Malin says. Evidence suggests that immune cell function falls and inflammatory responses rise in people who are grieving. That may be why people often get sick more often and use more health care resources during this period.

Evidence suggests that immune cell function falls and inflammatory responses rise in people who are grieving. That may be why people often get sick more often and use more health care resources during this period. But why is stress so hard on us? It's because the body unleashes a flood of stress hormones that can worsen many existing conditions (such as heart failure or diabetes) or lead to new ones (such as high blood pressure or heartburn). Stress can also cause insomnia and changes in appetite. Coronavirus COVID-19 Resource Center
While the COVID-19 pandemic continues to rage in parts of the world, it is slowly retreating in the U.S. There are now three FDA-authorized vaccines, including one for children as young as 12. The vaccines are proving to be nearly as effective in the real world as they were in clinical trials.

Extreme stress, the kind experienced after the loss of a loved one, is associated with changes in heart muscle cells or coronary blood vessels (or both) that prevent the left ventricle from contracting effectively — a condition called stress-induced cardiomyopathy or broken-heart syndrome. The symptoms are similar to those of a heart attack: chest pain and shortness of breath. Depression and grief
Intense feelings of sadness are normal when you're grieving. But some people become depressed. Up to 50% of widows and widowers have depression symptoms during the first few months after a spouse's death. ( By the one-year mark, the proportion is down to 10%.) Depression symptoms include extreme hopelessness, insomnia, loss of appetite, suicidal thoughts, persistent feelings of worthlessness, and marked mental and physical sluggishness.

3 easy exercises to get you started with strength training
It’s estimated that only 30% of American adults do the twice-per-week strength training recommended by experts. Some people think they need special equipment to perform strength-building exercises, while others just don’t know where to start. Adding three simple exercises—push-ups, reverse lunges, and planks—to one’s physical activity twice a week can help improve strength, which may help a person stay independent longer. (Locked)

6 ways to maximize lung health
There are many ways to maximize lung health. For example, exercising gets the heart and lungs pumping, causing a person to take deep breaths. Those deep breaths open up all areas of the lungs and assist in clearing out accumulated lung secretions (mucus). Other ways to maximize lung health include avoiding exposure to air pollution, quitting smoking, practicing deep breathing exercises, controlling weight, and getting out of a chair at least once per hour to take some deep breaths.

At a glance
A holistic approach means to provide support that looks at the whole person, not just their mental health needs. The support should also consider their physical, emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing. Each person will have a different experience of mental illness and a path to recovery that is influenced by their age, gender, culture, heritage, language, faith, sexual and gender identity, relationship status, life experience and beliefs. It is important not to assume that how you interpret situations will be the same as the person you are supporting. Listening, asking and checking are key skills to be able to provide a holistic service. A holistic approach focusses on a person’s wellness and not just their illness or condition. Resources

There are three types of encapsulants: There are polymers (chemical compounds) that form a flexible, resilient membrane. They are applied with a brush, roller, or airless spray gun.

Arsenic in Drinking Water
Content: Arsenic in Drinking Water (PDF)
Health Effects
Drinking water with low levels of arsenic over a long time is associated with diabetes and increased risk of cancers of the bladder, lungs, liver, and other organs. Coming in contact with arsenic can also contribute to cardiovascular and respiratory disease, reduced intelligence in children, and skin problems, such as lesions, discoloration, and the development of corns. Health impacts of arsenic may not occur right away and can develop after many years, especially if you are in contact with arsenic at a low level over a long time. How to Protect Yourself and Your Family
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) federal drinking water standard for arsenic in drinking water is 10 micrograms per liter (µg/L).* However, drinking water with arsenic at levels lower than the EPA standard over many years can still increase your risk of cancer. As a result, EPA sets health risk goals. The EPA has set a goal of 0 µg/L for arsenic in drinking water. These goals do not consider the cost of water treatment to reach that level of arsenic in drinking water. *One microgram per liter (µg/L) is the same as 1 part per billion (ppb). If you have a private well
The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) recommends that every well be tested for arsenic at least once.

Due to this factor, sometimes vitamin B12 is injected directly into patients, as opposed to supplements taken orally. These vitamin B12 injections can be a faster way to boost vitamin B12 levels and alleviate symptoms from anemia. How much Vitamin B12 is in Brewer
Brewer's yeast is used to brew beer and can be used to make bread. The amount of vitamin B12 in yeast is inconsistent, so it cannot be relied on as a source of vitamin B12 unless it is fortified. Interestingly, a 12oz can of beer does contain 0.1μg or 1% of the DV for vitamin B12. How much vitamin B12 is in Dried Seaweed (Nori)? Nori is the thin dried seaweed wrap typically used to make sushi rolls. According to this article published in the journal Nutrients, dried nori seaweed contains up to 51.7μg of vitamin B12 in 100 grams. A sheet of nori typically weights 1.25 grams so a single sheet would provide about 0.5μg of vitamin B12 or 8% DV. While this sounds great, it is unlikely that nori can be relied upon to be a consistent B12 source, so while it will make a good addition to a balanced vegan diet, it should not be solely relied upon.

Further, nori seaweed is very high in iodine, and should be avoided by people with thyroid issues. How Much Vitamin B12 is in Mushrooms? Interestingly, some mushrooms do contain vitamin B12, but due to their inability to accumulate and store it, it is never a consistent or large amount. What are the health benefits of Vitamin B12? Protection Against Heart Disease - Adequate levels of vitamins B12, B6, and B9 have been shown to lower levels of a protein in the blood called homocysteine.

Content: Each type of vitamin B is required in different amounts too. For example, it is recommended that both men and women consume about 5 mg of vitamin B5 daily. However, men should consume 16 mg of vitamin B3 daily, while women should only consume 14 mg. ( source)
Although there is an abundance of food sources containing B vitamins, certain people are at a higher risk for a deficiency. B vitamins can be found in whole grains (which contain vitamin B1), chicken (which contains vitamin B3) and leafy greens (which contain vitamin B9). So, if you are vegetarian, you may not be getting enough of the B vitamins found in meat products. Likewise, if you are gluten-intolerant, you may not be meeting the daily requirements for vitamin B1. Older adults and those with alcoholism or heart failure are also at a higher risk of vitamin B deficiency. Vitamin B complex supplements may also be used to improve your mood, hair health, memory and more. ( source)
If you are suffering from any of the symptoms of vitamin B deficiency, you can definitely benefit from vitamin supplements.

Clearly, the B vitamins are crucial to nearly every organ system.

Clearly, the B vitamins are crucial to nearly every organ system. So, a breakdown in any one of these systems may point to a vitamin B deficiency. However, you don’t need to have symptoms of a deficiency to take a vitamin B complex supplement; you can use them to protect yourself in the long run. Some studies find that B vitamins (specifically vitamins B6, B9 and B12) slows cognitive decline. ( source) These particular B vitamins may also prevent macular degeneration, which is an eye disease that becomes more prevalent as we age. (

One important thing to note is that the B vitamins are typically safe because they are water-soluble. So, your body will get rid of any excess. However, if you consume a B vitamin supplement in very large doses (more than the recommended daily amount), it can have adverse effects. These rare overdoses can lead to skin problems, vision problems and heart complications. Remember to follow the instructions on the label and speak to your doctor before taking any supplements.

This supplement from Garden of Life is vegan-friendly and gluten-free. Each bottle contains either 60 or 120 capsules, of which two must be taken daily. I like that this product does not contain synthetic ingredients. It contains folate and methylcobalamin, the natural (and more easily absorbed) forms of vitamins B9 and B12. In addition, it contains a probiotic and enzyme blend, which aids digestive function. It also contains a fruit and vegetable blend (containing 23 fruits and vegetables), for added nutrition. This makes it a great choice if you don’t eat as many veggies as you should! Many users praise this supplement for boosting their energy, improving their mood and clearing their skin.

Arsenic
The information on this page is adapted from toxipedia.org. To learn more about Toxipedia’s integration into our website, visit our Toxipedia webpage. Arsenic is a naturally occuring chemical with several common uses and a range of health impacts. Arsenic poisoning from well water remains a serious worldwide human health concern. People long ago recognized that depending on the dose, arsenic could either treat an illness or be used as a poison to cause death. Its medicinal use to treat syphilis and amebic dysentery ended with the introduction of penicillin and other antibiotics in the twentieth century. Arsenic-based compounds are currently used to treat some forms of cancer. As a poison, arsenic trioxide (As 2 O 3) has several desirable qualities: it looks like sugar and is tasteless, and only a fraction of a gram can kill an adult. Production and Uses

Brief History
Content: Signs and possible impacts of arsenic exposure: 9
Skin changes including patches of darkened skin and the appearance of small "corns" or "warts" on the palms, soles, and torso; these are often associated with changes in the blood vessels of the skin. Skin cancer
Cancer of the liver, bladder, kidney or lungs
Possibly diabetes, high blood pressure, reproductive disorders and lower IQ scores
Inhaling high levels of inorganic arsenic is associated with these signs and symptoms: 10
Sore throat and irritated lungs
Skin effects described above
Circulatory and peripheral nervous disorders
Direct skin contact with high concentrations of inorganic arsenic compounds may cause the skin to become irritated, with some redness and swelling. However, it does not appear that skin contact is likely to lead to any serious internal effects. 11
Much less is known about the health effects of organic arsenic. In animals, ingestion of methyl compounds can result in diarrhea, and lifetime exposure can damage the kidneys. Lifetime exposure to dimethyl compounds can damage the urinary bladder and the kidneys. 12
Cancer Classification
These entities have classified arsenic as a cause of cancer:

Children have higher levels of exposure, particularly if drinking water concentrations of arsenic are elevated, because of their smaller size and greater consumption of water relative to their size. Children also play in soil, put their hands in their mouths and intentionally eat soil more often than adults do on average. 14 Exposures in childhood also afford many more years for long-latency diseases and disorders (such as cancer) to develop than adult exposures. Adults who work in industries that involve arsenic production or use (copper or lead smelting, wood treating, or pesticide application, among others) could be exposed to elevated levels of arsenic at work. Those who saw CCA-treated wood, plus all people who live near or frequent some mining and smelting sites or agricultural areas where arsenic pesticides had been applied in the past may be exposed to much higher levels of arsenic than others.

Content: Vulnerable Populations
Children have higher levels of exposure, particularly if drinking water concentrations of arsenic are elevated, because of their smaller size and greater consumption of water relative to their size. Children also play in soil, put their hands in their mouths and intentionally eat soil more often than adults do on average. 14 Exposures in childhood also afford many more years for long-latency diseases and disorders (such as cancer) to develop than adult exposures. Adults who work in industries that involve arsenic production or use (copper or lead smelting, wood treating, or pesticide application, among others) could be exposed to elevated levels of arsenic at work. Those who saw CCA-treated wood, plus all people who live near or frequent some mining and smelting sites or agricultural areas where arsenic pesticides had been applied in the past may be exposed to much higher levels of arsenic than others. 15
Exposure
The lethal dose of arsenic in humans is 2-20 mg/kg, or 140 to 1400 mg for an average-sized adult. A 140-mg potentially lethal dose is the same as 0.145 grams. Less than 1/8 teaspoon can be fatal to a healthy adult, while even less could kill a child, an adult with impaired health, or an elderly person. 16
Background Exposures
Most people are exposed to constant but low levels of arsenic. Normally, background air levels are less than 0.1 μg/m3 and drinking water less than 5 μg/L, but water levels can be significantly higher.

Content: Managing healthcare payment is a significant process which puts tremendous stress on their administrative bandwidth and affects efficiency, regulatory compliance as well as cost of care. Any gap in filing claims could lead to claim rejections and subsequent paper work. Payers and clearing houses have to leverage technology to enable smooth claim processing. Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) is the electronic remedy to handling healthcare payment challenges. However, EDI in healthcare has its own complexities to handle. The most important aspect of EDI in healthcare are the governing standards. These are extremely vital for medical claims. Every EDI transaction needs a standardized format to ensure quick transfer and interpretation of data. Also, EDI transactions have to be compliant with regulatory requirements such as HIPAA and follow ANSI standards. With supporting documentations and claims being submitted via EDI, healthcare providers and payers are reaping the benefits of fewer denials and rework requests, faster identification of submission errors and claims processing, resulting in increased ROI.

Heart of palm is a vegetable yield from inner core and growing bud of some palm trees, Acai palm, jucara and palmetto. Other palm species are multi-stemmed or clonal plants and moderate harvesting will not destroy entire clonal plant. Palm varieties are an alternative to wild heart of palm which is domesticated farm species. The main variety to be domesticated is Bactris gasipaes commonly known as peach palm in English. This variety is popular for canning. They are self-suckering and form multiple stems (upto 40) on one plant. The palms are selectively bred in order to exclude vicious thorns of its wild cousins. The harvesting process is considered to be labor intensive.

Content: Anti-stress and Stress Management
Historically, adaptogenic herbs like Magnolia Berries have been used for stress management, primarily because this class of herbs shows positive health effects on the adrenal system. The adrenal glands are responsible for the production of stress hormones and stress-response mediators like cortisol. By squelching excessive production and secretion of molecular chaperones, cortisol and nitric oxide, Magnolia Berry aids in stabilizing the levels of these stress-associated compounds in the blood. In turn, this keeps the negative effects of stress (i.e., fatigue, mental fogginess, low energy levels etc.) at bay. 3. Fights Fatigue/Enhances Mental Clarity
Magnolia Berry has the ability to fight fatigue both mental and physical. Its ability to reduce the harmful effects of the stress response (i.e., weakness and lethargy) in turn helps to promote mental clarity. Additionally, studies in rats have recommended that Magnolia Berry may even be effective at treating memory impairment. Magnolia Berry improves focus, attention span, and even coordination, making it a compelling supplement for athletes, students, surgeons, artists… and the rest of us too!

Content: It is one of the primary trees used in the production of myrrh, a resin made from dried tree sap. The tree is native to southwest Asia, including Arabia, and most commonly east and northeast Africa near the region of the Red Sea or Arabian Gulf, specifically Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya. More than 150 different variety of this same species tress have abundantly grown in this area. The common name Myrrh is derived from a Hebrew and Arabic word “mur, murr or maror “, which means bitterness or acrimony. The genus name Commiphora is from the Greek “kommi”, meaning “gum”, and “phoros”, meaning “carrier”. Myrrh is a resinous secretion of the Commiphora myrrha trees. Native users collected the resin from myrrh by making incisions into the bark. A yellowish oleoresin is exudate from these bark incision marks. Exposure to air makes the resin dry and hardens, which then gradually turns to reddish-brown. Myrrh has been used in perfumes, incense, and embalming, and, as a symbol of suffering, was one of the three gifts believed to have been offered to the infant Jesus by the Magi.

You Have 60 Days to Find Insurance After the Birth of Your Child: If you have a baby while you’re uninsured, you have 60 days to purchase an insurance policy for yourself and your child. If you buy coverage after your baby is born, your plan will typically start within 30 days. Simply Getting Pregnant Doesn’t Count as a QLE: Although having a baby is considered a qualifying life event, getting pregnant is not. If you’re uninsured and become pregnant, that does not let you enroll in a new healthcare plan. You must apply for coverage during the nationwide Open Enrollment Period or within the sixty-day window following a qualifying life event such as birth.

Medicaid provides payment for treatment of an emergency medical condition for people who meet all Medicaid eligibility criteria in the state (such as income and state residency), but don’t have an eligible immigration status. Medicaid, CHIP, & "public charge" status
Applying for or receiving Medicaid or CHIP benefits, or getting savings for health insurance costs in the Marketplace, doesn't make someone a " public charge ." This means it won’t affect their chances of becoming a Lawful Permanent Resident or U.S. citizen. There's one exception for people receiving long-term care in an institution at government expense, like in a nursing facility. These people may face barriers getting a green card.

Health coverage if you're pregnant, plan to get pregnant, or recently gave birth
All Health Insurance Marketplace® and Medicaid plans cover pregnancy and childbirth. This is true even if your pregnancy begins before your coverage starts. Maternity care and newborn care — services provided before and after your child is born — are essential health benefits. This means all qualified health plans inside and outside the Marketplace must cover them. Choose your situation below for more information: If you’re pregnant or planning to get pregnant: If you don’t have health coverage
If you currently have Marketplace coverage
If you may qualify for Medicaid or Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
If you recently gave birth: If you don’t have health coverage

Health coverage makes it easier to get the medical check-ups and screening tests to help keep both you and your baby healthy during pregnancy. If you qualify for a Special Enrollment Period due to a life event like moving or losing other coverage, you may be able to enroll in a Marketplace health plan right now. Being pregnant doesn’t make you eligible, but the birth of a child does.

If you want to keep your current Marketplace coverage, don’t report your pregnancy to the Marketplace. When filling out your application for Marketplace coverage, select the “Learn more” link when we ask if you’re pregnant to read tips to help you best answer this question. If you report your pregnancy, you may be found eligible for free or low-cost coverage through Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). If you are found eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, your information will be sent to the state agency, and you will not be given the option to keep your Marketplace plan. If you keep your Marketplace coverage, be sure to update the application after you give birth to add the baby to the plan or enroll them in coverage through Medicaid or CHIP, if they qualify. If you may qualify for Medicaid or Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
Medicaid and CHIP provide free or low-cost health coverage to millions of Americans, including some low-income people, families and children, and pregnant women. Eligibility for these programs depends on your household size, income, and citizenship or immigration status. Specific rules and benefits vary by state. You can apply for Medicaid or CHIP any time during the year, not just during the annual Open Enrollment Period.

A brief history of patient dumping
The Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act
Mental health cuts

Ideas for change
Content: Although the act’s primary purpose was to dedicate federal funds toward the construction and modernization of hospitals, it also directed hospitals to make their services available to anyone in the “territorial area of the facility” and provide a “reasonable volume” of free care to any person unable to pay for the next 20 years. The act, however, left much gray area and went largely unenforced, leaving states to pass their own anti-dumping statutes. By the early 1980s, only 22 states had passed anti-dumping statutes. It was later reported by lawyer Thomas L. Stricker in 1992 that during that time, hospitals across the country denied medical care to a quarter million patients annually because they were either uninsured or couldn't afford payments. In Dallas, for example, the number of annual patient dumping victims jumped from 70 per month in 1982 to over 200 per month in 1983, according to the USCCR report. The Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act
Following a surge of media attention, President Ronald Reagan signed The Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act in 1986, effectively the federal anti-dumping statute for hospitals taking part in Medicare. “EMTALA requires that if a patient comes to the hospital, the hospital is required to perform a medical screening exam,” said Kim Stanger, partner at Holland & Hart. “ If the screening exam reveals a medical emergency condition, the hospital is required to provide stabilizing treatment or an appropriate transfer to another facility, and they must do so regardless of the patient’s ability to pay.” The civil penalties for violating the law depend on the size of the hospital and the number of beds dedicated to its emergency department. “If a hospital has more than 100 beds, it’s about a $100,000 penalty.

If the hospital has less than 100 beds, it’s around $50,000," Stanger said. Patients, if able, can sue for damages within a two-year statute of limitations, as can hospitals that have incurred costs after treating a patient dumped on them from another hospital. Hospitals violating EMTALA will also be investigated by state agencies that then require the facility to implement a plan of correction. If the plan isn't executed, they then stand to lose their ability to participate in Medicare. “That’s the death knell for hospitals,” Stanger said. “

The Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act
Mental health cuts

Ideas for change
Content: The majority of emergency departments — 83%, according to NAMI — don’t have a psychiatrist on call, and 29% of doctors said patients have waited more than two days in their emergency department for an inpatient psychiatric bed. Snook blamed what he calls a “discriminatory and outdated” federal rule called the The Medicaid Institutions for Mental Diseases Exclusion, which prohibits use of federal Medicaid funds for care at an inpatient psychiatric facility. In other words, states are responsible for the brunt of the cost for anyone who goes into a psychiatric bed — which means those are often the first beds to be eliminated. “They just cost more money,” Snook said. “ You have this really small number of beds that gum up the entire system because the most severely ill folks can’t get into the treatment beds they need, so they end up in the less-intensive beds.” That means patients experiencing a mental health episode who end up in ERs are often discharged before they’ve been properly stabilized. Laws and ethics
Rules for hospital discharges differ from those for nursing homes, noted Samuel Brooks, a staff attorney with Community Legal Services in Philadelphia. “While the regulations for hospitals clearly require discharge planning, they don’t explicitly state that a person can’t be dumped or discharged to the street,” he told Healthcare Dive. Federal nursing home regulations are more clear, delineating the only reasons a patient may be transferred and grounds for why a patient should be discharged. EMTALA mandates that if a hospital takes a patient in and a patient-physician relationship is established, physicians need to provide “appropriate care” until the relationship is terminated.

Some vitamin “don’ts":
Meet Our Writer
Content: Many claims on supplements may not be backed by clinical studies. If your diet is optimal, you could likely pass on taking most vitamins or supplements. Vitamins and supplements are not innocuous: excessive doses can cause harm. It is reasonable to take a general multivitamin to “fill in gaps” in your diet. Many of us may need individual vitamin supplementation, e.g., vitamin D and calcium are two of the vitamins that address needs that many of us need to meet. The following is a basic guide for the best times and ways to consume vitamins: The B vitamin group includes thiamin, riboflavin, vitamin B-6, niacin, biotin, vitamin B-12, folic acid and pantothenic acid. If you are taking any of these B vitamins they can all be taken at the same time. Best time to take the B’s is in the morning on an empty stomach.

Many of these are not naturally produced in the body or stored, which is why it’s important to track food sources or take supplemental vitamins. Best time to take water soluble vitamins is in the morning (see the guide for the B’s above) on an empty stomach (wait 30 minutes before eating) but divide doses if you are on any high dose selections. You can also take them two hours after a meal.

Content: Sanitizing commonly touched items in the house can also cut down on the germ count. Door knobs, cell phones, light switches and remotes can all be wiped down to prevent spreading germs. Stay away from friends or family who have been sick. Most people will be contagious for up to 24 hours after they have run a fever. Vaccinations for both flu and pneumonia can help some patients prevent these common winter illnesses. Check with your doctor to see if vaccinations might be a good idea for you, as well. Boost your own immune system. Exercise as much as your body can tolerate, and/or as much as advised by your physician. Eat healthy foods that contain plenty of fresh, fruits and vegetables, healthy fats, lean proteins and whole grains. Stay hydrated.

Title: Does Summer Heat Increase Anxiety?

Does Summer Heat Increase Anxiety?
Anything can be a trigger for anxiety
Seasonal Affective Disorder

Content: Are there traumas that have happened during the summer months? We may not connect a long-past trauma with the anxiety we are feeling today, but it could be related. Our moods can change with the time of the year, depending on past events during that season. Seasonal Affective Disorder
Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is most common during the long winter months, but it can occur in any season. This is sometimes referred to as reverse seasonal affective disorder, which affects less than 1 percent of the population, and more women than men. Symptoms of SAD during the summer include agitation, loss of appetite, insomnia, and sometimes suicidal thoughts. Interviewed in a New York Times article, SAD expert Dr. Norman E. Rosenthal says he isn't sure whether summer SAD may be caused by a sensitivity to heat or too much light. " The challenges encountered with the changing seasons seem to overwhelm those internal regulating mechanisms," Rosenthal continued. Treatment for summer SAD may be staying in air conditioning as much as possible or finding other ways, such as swimming or cold showers, to stay cool. Others may find antidepressant medications are the only way, or the best way, to overcome symptoms.

Content: High White Blood Cells Count In Cancer Patients - Cause, Symptoms, Treatment
A white blood cell count generally refers to the number of white blood cells available in your body. There are several types of white blood cells, and you should have a given percentage of each type of white blood cells. However, sometimes due to a number of factors, which may be mere or severe, your white blood cells count can either fall or rise beyond the normal healthy range. One major cause of a rise in the white blood cells is cancer. In this article, we are going to discuss more high white blood cells count in cancer patients. According to research, high white blood cells count appears to be one of the independent predictors of risk for deaths from cancer. For instance, in a recent study that studied more than 3000 older people in Australia, the investigators found that those patients who had a higher quartile of white blood cells count had a significantly higher risk for cancer mortality as compared to the other patients with lower WBC count. According to the University of Rochester Medical Center, the following is an overview of the normal ranges of white blood cells counts per microliter of blood. Newborns- 9,000 to 30,000
Children below 2 years- 6,200 to 17,000
2 years and above – 5,000 to 10,000
What has considered a high white blood cell count is any value beyond these normal ranges. For instance, white blood cell count above 30000 may represent leukemia.
