cure for some type-1 diabetes @JDRF_Tucson

10: web.health/type 1 diabetes/causes:
. what causes type 1?
the only widely acknowledged risk factor is heredetary
due to recessive gene (needs both parents).
. I seem to recall that this is one of those hereditary things
that could be controlled by environment ...
13: web:
J Endocrinol Invest. 2012 Sep 24:
rising incidence of type 1 diabetes in belgrade
children aged 0-14 in the period from 1982 to 2005:

Type- 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease
in which both genetic and environmental factors
play a role in the etiology
. The average annual age adjusted incidence rate
of type-1 diabetes for Belgrade was 10.4/100,000
It was slightly higher in boys than in girls.
Over the 24 years incidence rates significantly increased
by 8.5% for boys and 3.0% for girls.
. the age of onset is not evenly spread over the age groups:
0-4, 5-9, and 10-14
-- it peaks during the natural rise of hormonal activity;
but only recently the rates are same for both sexes:
The age-specific annual incidence rates (per 100,000)
for the age groups 0-4, 5-9, and 10-14 were
5.5 (95% CI = 4.5-6.7),
11.9 (95% CI = 10.5-13.5) and
15.4 (95% CI = 13.8- 17.1), respectively.
The highest increase of incidence rate
was in the 5-9 age group.
The results obtained are in line with
data from other studies showing that
the incidence of type-1 diabetes has been increasing
in almost all populations worldwide.

natural hormone levels of children:
. estrogenic activity during femal infancy is quite high,
then it's supposed dip quite low until age 7 .
[. of course it should quite low in males
except around infancy? .]
Endocrine disruptors and type 1 diabetes: Is there a link?

. natural hormones can influence
the development of type 1 diabetes.
Gender differences are present
in type 1 (and type 2) diabetes,
and it is possible that sex hormones may influence
the risk of developing type 1 diabetes .
The incidence of type 1 diabetes in children
peaks at puberty,
a time of hormonal changes .
Pregnancy, another time of hormonal change,
can lead to gestational diabetes,
later followed by type 1 or 2 diabetes .
Psychological stress may be a risk factor;
and while the mechanism is unknown,
perhaps hormones released during stress
could play a role.
In addition, the hormone vitamin D
appears to be protective against it .
The role of taller height and excess weight
as risk factors for type 1 diabetes
may also involve hormones
We do not know, however, if xenoestrogens
contribute to the development of type 1 diabetes.

--
. if it's only slighly higher in males now,
and the rate increase for males
has been much higher than for females,
it seems that this disease is influenced by estrogens;
since during the last 25 years, due to rises in obesity,
children of both sexes have been getting
much more estrogen for that age;
but the proportional increase in estrogen
has been much higher for males .
. obesity also lowers male testosterone,
and there has been more exposure to xenoestrogens .

Help Us End FDA's Failure to Protect Food Safety
Center for Food Safety Oct 9 (1 day ago)

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that each year, roughly 1 in 6 Americans (48 million people) gets sick, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die of foodborne diseases.  In January 2011, Congress passed the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) to improve our food safety laws by mandating FDA to require preventive controls across the food supply.  As the first overhaul of food safety oversight since 1938, these long-overdue measures include inspecting food producers as a means of holding industry accountable for its responsibility to produce safe foods, ensuring imported foods meet U.S. standards and are safe for consumers, and establishing science-based minimum standards for hazard analysis and documentation.   FSMA also grants FDA new recall authority for all food products, and enhances partnerships to foster coordination of food safety efforts throughout the government (local, state, and federal).  In short, this slew of preventative, protective measures would dramatically reduce the number of illnesses caused by foodborne hazards in the United States. 
Unfortunately, FDA has yet to act on this law, repeatedly missing deadlines set by Congress in FSMA for its application.  Instead the statute’s intended improvements sit idle.  Thus, FDA’s continuing delay and failure poses a continued risk of serious foodborne illness outbreaks. 
Because of this unlawful delay and the risk it is causing all of us, on August 29, 2012, Center for Food Safety filed a lawsuit
to force FDA to finish its regulations, comply with the mandated deadlines, and actually implement the law.
Now, we need your help: we are looking for more CFS members who are
concerned about FDA’s failure to implement and enforce these food safety regulations. 
*Are you responsible for providing food for your family,
and are concerned that absent properly enacted food safety federal regulations,
your family is at increased risk of contracting a foodborne illness? 
*Are you concerned about, and
have you changed your purchasing decisions,
cooking and/or eating practices
with regard to raw fruits and vegetables,
imported foods, or food that has been transported long distances?
[yes: I cook all veg now . but I wouldn't trust the fda with my kidneys;]
*Have you or someone you know recently contracted a foodborne illness?
Are you concerned that, absent better federal regulations,
you or someone you know may contract an illness again? 
*Do you own a business that sells raw fruits and vegetables,
imported foods, or food that has been transported?
Have your sales have been negatively impacted
due to recent foodborne illness outbreaks or the specter of them?
*Do you run a business subject to FSMA regulations?
Are the lack of FSMA regulations negatively affecting
your ability to plan financially for the future?
If you meet one or more of these criteria, we need your help.Please email

or call 415-826-2770
as soon as possible to learn more.
Thank you,

the first zombies will be the police

7.30: co.pol/purges/overpopulation/
police violence on rise:

. The DOJ reports police brutality has
“mushroomed to unprecedented levels,”
and 17 departments are now under investigation.
Most inexcusable is that these crimes are rarely punished
and these officers nearly never lose their jobs.
Tell Congress to crack down on police brutality
and prosecute it as a penalty-enhanced federal crime.

my response:
if you think I should be sorry
for what my police do,
you should see what my free parenting does
to egg them on;
this isn't just a reaganomic nut house;
this is overpopulation
turning us into zombie cannibals .

we all have to do our part #overpopulation

7.9: pol/purges/overpopulation/
we all have to do our part:
. leslie marshal is saying (via radio)

taxes on the rich are too low
we all have to do our part, (more)

my response:
. why not limit reproduction to match market signals?
she thinks family values means
communizing education?
what about taxing people who breed responsibly
to pay for the education of big-family religious invaders?
. when you communize childcare,
you subsidize sexual activity and racist ambitions .
why am I being taxed to subsidize reproduction
when it inevitably makes it harder for me to
get a job to pay those taxes?
. why encourage breeding when we are
squeezing us about global warming?

lef.org's diet survey

10.3: co.lef.org/health/hormonics/
my diet and why:
funny choice of diets to follow:

Low carb/Atkins    28.57%
Vegetarian/vegan    15.87%
I eat whatever I want    14.29%
Calorie restriction    12.7%
Low fat/Pritikin    3.17%
Other 25.%

 -- where is mediterranean?
did you mean to emphasize Other,
to make a point?
let me expound on that point !
. a pritikin diet is a special version of vegetarian diet:
the low-glycemic, low-fat version
-- in fact vegetarian is often quite glycemic
and saves the animals only to kill the human!
. the atkins is confusingly 2 diets,
# the induction part:
high-fat with less than 20g carb;
# and the maintenance phase:
. the only difference between that and Zone
is not a fat limit -- there is none for
athletes who want a high-calorie diet --
the Zone's big diff is a careful limit on protein
-- generous but quite narrow limits,
just like the carbs .
. the Zone diet also differs from atkins by
making demands on the quality of the fat:
it should be monounsaturates and not sat'fats
with only the essential amount of polyunsaturates
except for fish oils . again quality matters:
only pharmaceutically distilled fish oil .
. I do the Americium Dream Lustig Zone diet
-- hormonics for short (as in hormones in harmony)
which is like Zone (mediterranian style)
but is more about higher fiber, and
lower glycemics instead of lower carbs .
. all my protein comes from
beans pureed with LE whey protein isolate
and gelatine powder
-- no zone concerns for either
glucagon impact or carb limits .
. I get some egg yolks for brain food
and for fear that vegetarianism is unbalanced .
. I consider my diet animal friendly too
but only in the future when our
combination of hyperbreeders and capitalists
gives up on lowering farm costs .
...
I'm a little late for this thread,
but after it was posted,
some long-term primate studies
cast doubt on low calorie dieting
being useful for longevity,
but of course it's good for health .

overpopulation inciting class warfare

#ows delivers centralized banking:
. on the subject of OWS
[the Occuppy WallSt movement]
out there bothering our cops, I ask:
why are they there, anyway?
they didn't have half the excuse of
southern hiafrics fighting unequal segregation;
however, while on the topic of

usa's drug war in mexico

7.1: pol/purges/drug war/democratic drug war
invites socialism back into mexico:
7.x?: 9.29: summary:
. under mexico's previous president,
there had been a military crackdown on drug cartels,
who terrorized the citizens in response,
murdering around 50,000 .
. all this was to fight for usa's drug battle,
-- to take advantage of usa's financial assistance
and economic cooperations .
. the mexican's have a long history of being
socialists, organizing under the PRI;
and they just re-elected them .
. if the PRI was socialistic now,
that would be sweet justice,
as they would be saying to usa:
"( you think a drug war is democracy?
we would rather be socialists ! )
. unfortunately, I got no such justice,
as it was pointed out by a socialist site,
that the PRI is strongly capitalist these days .
. nevertheless,
the effect for usa is the same:
if PRI can stop the drug war violence,
I can assure you it's only because they
stopped getting in the way of drug lords;
because, with the grinding poverty of
combined Catholicism and capitalism,
the drug cartels have an infinite supply
of either dealers or butchers
-- take your pick .
. if usa was serious about the drug war
they would prevent usa's drug use;
but, while it's easy for the religious
to dictate drug abstinence;
try dictating fewer privacy rights
(like universal drug testing)
and you will find out
just how "religious" usa really is .

9.29: summary of links:
. the drug war is in, PRI is out;
PRI is no longer socialist;
Mexico's history of socialist politics;
would the US ever trust a pri president? .

hiafric HIV rates driven by our drug policy:

"The global war on drugs
is driving the HIV/AIDS pandemic
among drug users and their sexual partners.
Throughout the world,
research has consistently shown that
repressive drug law enforcement practices
force drug users away from public health services
and into hidden environments where
HIV risk becomes markedly elevated.
Mass incarceration of non-violent drug offenders
also plays a major role in increasing HIV risk.
This is a critical public health issue
in many countries, including the United States,
where as many as 25 % of the HIV-infected
may pass through correctional facilities annually,
and where disproportionate incarceration rates
are among the key reasons for markedly higher
HIV rates among African Americans."

-- "The War on Drugs and HIV/AIDS:
How the Criminalization of Drug Use
Fuels the Global Pandemic,"Global Commission on Drug Policy
(Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: June 2012), p. 2.

7.26: co.apt/pol/purges/drug war/
sobriety for trust and fear:
. the drug war is expensive and obnoxious;
so how does it survive in a democracy where
more than half [exaggeration]
have used drugs under the table?
. a key to understanding its driver
is our needing to maintain a sense of fairness
while upholding employee quality
in situations where trustworthiness is critical .
. basically, hospital staff can't get high;
so therefore nobody else can either .
the winning drug plan is this:
. we need to use our stimulant drugs
to fast-track the development of robots;
then we can replace these core staff;
and then finally the elites won't care
whether we get high,
because our monkey
doesn't even have to be in the same room
with their monkey .
