Diagramatic Representation Of Bacterial Infections

Unbelievable!!!! Sickle Cell Disease REVERSED!!!!

A French teenager's sickle cell disease has been reversed using a pioneering treatment to change his DNA.

The world-first procedure at Necker Children's Hospital in Paris offers hope to millions of people with the blood disorder.

Scientists altered the genetic instructions in his bone marrow so it made healthy red blood cells.

So far, the therapy has worked for 15 months and the child is no longer on any medication.

Sickle cell disease causes normally round red blood cells, which carry oxygen around the body, to become shaped like a sickle.

These deformed cells can lock together to block the flow of blood around the body. This can cause intense pain, organ damage and can be fatal.

The teenager who received the treatment had so much internal damage he needed to have his spleen removed and his hips replaced.

Every month he had to go into hospital to have a blood transfusion to dilute his defective blood.

But when he was 13, doctors at the Necker Children's Hospital in Paris did something unique.

'No sign of disease'

Doctors removed his bone marrow - the part of the body that makes blood. They then genetically altered it in a lab to compensate for the defect in his DNA that caused the disease.

Sickle cell is caused by a typo in the instructions for making the protein haemoglobin, which is densely packed into red blood cells.

A virus was used to infect the bone marrow with new, correct instructions.

The corrected bone marrow was then put back into the patient.

The results in the New England Journal of Medicine showed the teenager has been making normal blood since the procedure 15 months ago.

Philippe Leboulch, a professor of medicine at the University of Paris, told the BBC News website: "So far the patient has no sign of the disease, no pain, no hospitalisation. He no longer requires a transfusion so we are quite pleased with that.

"But of course we need to perform the same therapy in many patients to feel confident that it is robust enough to propose it as a mainstream therapy."

'Given his life back'

Prof Leboulch is nervous about using the word "cure" as this is just the first patient to come through clinical trials.

But the study does show the potential power of gene therapy to transform the lives of people with sickle cell.

"I think it's very significant, essential they've given him his life back," said Dr Deborah Gill from the gene medicine research group at the University of Oxford.

She told the BBC: "I've worked in gene therapy for a long time and we make small steps and know there's years more work.

"But here you have someone who has received gene therapy and has complete clinical remission - that's a huge step forward."

However, the expensive procedure can only be carried out in cutting-edge hospitals and laboratories, while most sickle cell patients are in Africa.

The next big challenge will be to transform this pioneering science into something that really can help millions of people.

What is sickle cell disease?

• Sickle cell disease is a lifelong condition caused by a faulty gene that affects how red blood cells develop
• SCD mainly affects people of African, Caribbean, Middle Eastern, Eastern Mediterranean and Asian origin
• People with sickle cell are often at an increased risk of contracting serious infections or they could become anaemic, which is when red blood cells cannot carry enough oxygen around the body. This can cause tiredness and shortness of breath
• Some patients have regular blood transfusions - usually every three to four weeks - as a form of treatment for the condition

Concerning Orthopaedic Surgeons!!

Each year, a publication called Medscape creates a portrait of the medical profession.

It surveys thousands of doctors about their job satisfaction, salaries and the like and breaks down the results by specialty, allowing for comparisons between, say, dermatologists and oncologists.

As I read the most recent survey, I was struck by the answers from orthopedic surgeons.

They are the highest-paid doctors, with an average salary of $443,000 in 2015 — which, coincidentally, was almost the exact cutoff for the famed top 1 percent of the income distribution.

Yet many orthopedists are not happy with their pay.

Only 44 percent feel “fairly compensated,” a smaller share than in almost every other specialty.

A lot of orthopedists aren’t even happy being doctors.

Just 49 percent say they would go into medicine if they had to make the decision again, compared with 64 percent of all doctors.

I know that many orthopedists have a very different view: They take pride in helping patients and feel fortunate to enjoy comfortable lives.

But despite those doctors, it’s clear that orthopedics suffers from a professional culture that does not live up to medicine’s highest ideals.

Too many orthopedists are rich and think it’s an injustice that they’re not richer.

Waking Up Dead Cells: A Product On A Mission

OMG!!!! Miracles Are Happening In Our Times!!!

If you think that this is a story about a Pastor laying hands on a coffin and the dead coming back to life, then you are wrong because that only happens in Science fiction films.

And if I had not seen him alive, conversed with him, shook his hands, I would never have believed the story.

For a while now (almost a year or so) I have been hearing of a wonderful product that is literally "raising the dead" and transforming lives that had been considered "gone" but as a Medical Doctor and Scientist, I refuse to believe such stories that seem to be in the sphere of "fairy tales"

But all that was to change when I "reluctantly" attended a Product Presentation by the Company that has brought into the World, this "wonder working product"

And in the course of the presentation, several persons gave testimonies of reliefs they have experienced from the use of the product which ranged from healing of raucous cough, to treatment of severe acne, regularization of menstrual period to reversing early menopause; others said they had been healed of premature ejaculation while another said he was healed of weak erection.

However, the one that really attracted my attention was the one from a 54 year old man who said he had been hypertensive for 15 years and had faithfully used the drugs he was placed on but that 2 weeks ago, he developed severe chest pain that made it difficult for him to breathe well and saw him panting for breath; and that as he watched himself, he saw his life ebbing away and so he was rushed to a nearby Private Hospital, where he was examined and was said to be in incipient heart attack and because they did not have the facility to treat him, he was referred to a Government Hospital and while the Nurses were running around trying to arrange a bed for him and also summoning the Doctor on call, he was "literally dying", his breathing had now become laboured and he was placed on Oxygen before the Doctor came.

He was given some pain relieving injections and still placed on Oxygen since it was late in the night for the wife to buy the drugs prescribed. He said he really feared for his life so much so that when one of the attending Medical personnel told him about the product and its wonder working action, he did not think twice to order for a packet.

That same night, he took one sachet and within 2 hours, he had a relief in his breathing that he was now taking the Oxygen intermittently; when the morning of the new day dawned, instead of buying the drugs that were prescribed for him, he took a 2nd sachet; he got so relieved that his breathing was no longer laboured and he was put off the Oxygen. Not only did he get relief from his laboured breathing but his BP "literally crashed" it had never been that low in all these 15 years.

On the 2nd day, he took another 2 sachets (morning and evening) and when he was reviewed by the attending Medical Personnel, he had fully recovered and so he was discharged.

Now, just like I said above, if I had not met this man in person, I would never have believed this story but what made it even more convincing for me was that he brought with him his medical file (his own copy) and the letter of referral from the Private Health Establishment to the Government Health Establishment.

So at the end of his testimony, he said that he had appointed himself an Apostle for that Product because he had never felt more alive before these past 2 weeks that he had been using the product.

So, if you have or anyone you know has any chronic debilitating diseases - stroke, hypertension, diabetes, diabetic ulcer, chronic duodenal ulcer, excessive fat, kidney insufficiency, HIV/AIDS, Infertility, Chronic Arthritis, Tumours (Fibroid) Cancers, Chronic Forgetfulness, Inability to sleep (insomnia),  e.t.c., then you or/and them need to key into this therapy without further hesitation and you would surely thank me for it.

I am waiting to receive your testimonies

Health Is A Gift You Give To Yourself

Exercise is one of the best ways to slow the aging process and counteract changes taking place within the body.

It's becoming common knowledge that exercise plays a vital role in keeping us healthy, strong, vital and most of all the key to warding off disease and premature aging.
 
Unfortunately many entrepreneurs (and others very focused on achieving) ignore their body's needs now in lieu of getting their project finished or their deadline met.

The irony is this:

Those that have the most hectic lifestyles and experience high levels of stress daily are the ones that need the benefits of exercise the most and yet many times its those very people (because they are focused on business) that are not getting it.

Not only do they not give their bodies the exercise it needs, but often times opt for "fast food" rather than wholesome foods in order to "get back to business."

They may be experiencing a high level of success in business now but at what cost? Cheating themselves out of enjoying active senior years?

All the success in life will not bring health with it.

Health is a gift you give yourself by enjoying nature's bounty in the way of diet and making your body active as it was meant to be.

In reality, you cannot wait until the ravages of a poor diet and lack of exercise begin to show their damaging effects. 

Truth is, the greatest "wealth" you will ever have in life is the gift of health and that is one gift that only YOU can give yourself.

Developing A Healthy Body

Most people aim for a healthy body that allows them to enjoy life to the fullest. 

Many believe that the key to happiness and wealth is a healthy lifestyle, and this is true.

A healthy body and equally healthy mind and soul invites positive energy.

But not all people achieve health and wellness as easily and have difficulty dealing with unhealthy habits, eating whatever, whenever or neglecting physical activity and so on.

Maybe you are taking your health for granted and doing things that may hurt your body and compromise your health in the process.

So before it is too late, allow me to help you achieve that prime health and wellness you have always wanted to have.

The First Wealth Is Health

Hello My Friend,

Do you know that the air we breathe in has 20% Oxygen, 78% Nitrogen and 1% Inert Gases?

Do you know that we breathe in Oxygen and breathe out Carbon Dioxide?

Do you know that it's ONLY Oxygen that sustains life, neither Carbon Dioxide nor Carbon Monoxide does?

Do you know that ALL CELLS of our body depend on Oxygen for survival?

Do you know that BRAIN CELLS denied of Oxygen die within 4 - 5 minutes and can never be revived?

Do you know that our ability to think and to act depends on the level of Oxygen in our body?

Do you know that with the depletion of the Ozone layer, the amount of Oxygen available for us to survive on has continued to decrease over the years?

Do you know that cells deprived of Oxygen begin to wither and shrink and eventually die?

Do you know that the death of any cell in an organ of our body compromises that organ? especially those organs whose cells cannot be regenerated

Do you know that when most cells in an organ die due to insufficient supply of Oxygen, that organ is said to become diseased and might eventually pack up?

You don't know all these?

Or you know some but not the others?

Well,  read what a renowned Medical Practitioner said about Cells and Oxygen

"...All chronic pain, suffering, and diseases are caused from a lack of oxygen at the cell level." -

Dr. Arthur C. Guyton, M.D., The Textbook of Medical Physiology

And he is not the only one to testify to the goodness of Oxygen to our lives

Dr. Stephen R. Krauss also said that "Oxygen is the key to life, health and longevity"

So, are you constantly famished and fatigued?

Do you suffer from chronic arthritis, pains all over your body or just waist pains and joint pains?

How about eczema and black heads?

Do you also suffer from constant constipation, hard rat like faeces which makes you to develop the fear of eating food?

Do you know that all these are caused by deprivation of Oxygen to the cells of the organs that control the stable functions of our body?

But and that's a big BUT! - there's good news in the air!!!!

If I tell you right away here and now that a Company has found a way to bottle Oxygen and make it available as drops that we can drop right under our tongues to savour the immense benefit of an Oxygen rich cellular environment for optimum functionality of the cells of our body and consequently the organs and the body itself,

Would you believe me?

12 Simple Steps To A Good Night’s Sleep

A

few years ago, I carried out a large-scale survey examining the lifestyles of people who

sleep well and wake up feeling refreshed. The results revealed that the secret of a great night’s sleep is surprisingly simple, and comes down to the following 12 techniques.

1 Avoid the blues

When your eyes are exposed to light, your brain produces less of the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin. Light towards the blue end of the spectrum is especially stimulating and, unfortunately, computer screens, tablets, smartphones and LED lighting all emit a lot of blue light. Try not to use these devices in the two hours before you go to bed. If you must use them, turn down the brightness or wear amber-tinted glasses designed to block blue light.

2 Tub time

There’s a decrease in your body temperature just before you fall asleep. Taking a bath or shower artificially raises your body temperature, but when you climb out of the tub or shower, this temperature abruptly drops and sends a signal to your body that you are ready for sleep. Take a bath or shower immediately before you head to bed.

3 Steer clear of the nightcap

Although a small amount of alcohol might help you get to sleep more quickly, it also gives you a more disturbed night, increases the chances of snoring and disrupts dreaming. Don’t drink alcohol in the hours before bed.

4 Follow the 90-minute rule

Every night your brain goes through several 90-minute sleep cycles. You feel good if you wake up towards the end of a cycle because then you are closest to your normal waking state. To increase the chances of this, decide when you want to wake up and then count back in 90 minutes blocks to discover the best time to fall asleep. For instance, if you want to wake up at 8am, you should aim to fall asleep around either 11pm or 12.30am.

5 Distract your brain

Although scientists have yet to assess the impact of counting sheep, research suggests that you will fall asleep quickly if you tire your mind. Try counting backwards from 100 in threes. Or, if you’re not good with numbers, think of a category (countries or fruit and vegetables) and then come up with an example of that category for each letter of the alphabet. A is for Albania, B is for Bulgaria, or A is for apple, B is for banana, etc.

6 Make a list

Are you struggling to fall asleep because you are worrying about a problem, or thinking about what you need to do the next day? Put a notepad on your bedside table and, before you nod off, make a list of what’s on your mind or make a to-do list for the next morning.
