Dadurch wird die Bereitschaft für thrombotische Veränderungen an Gefäßplaque-Rupturen herabgesetzt. Es wird angenommen, dass Arginin die unterdrückte Immunantwort bei schweren Verletzungen, Mangelernährung, Sepsis und nach Operationen positiv beeinflussen kann. Bei zusätzlicher Gabe wird eine verbesserte zelluläre Immunantwort, eine Abnahme verletzungsbedingter Funktionsstörungen der T-Zellen und eine verstärkte Phagozytose beobachtet. Zusätzlich wird die Ausbildung der endothelialen Dysfunktion (gestörten Gefäßfunktion) verhindert. 1998 gab es für die Erforschung des Zusammenhangs von Arginin und NO den Nobelpreis für Medizin. ★★ Bei Erwachsenen wird der Bedarf an L-Arginin durch die körpereigene Produktion oft nicht ausreichend abgedeckt. Besonders in der Wachstumsphase, durch Stress, bei diversen Krankheiten (z. B. Arteriosklerose, Bluthochdruck, erektile Dysfunktion, Gefäßerkrankungen) oder nach Unfällen übersteigt der Bedarf an Arginin die vom menschlichen Organismus produzierte Menge. Auch im Alter steigt der Bedarf an L-Arginin stark an, da der endogene Gegenspieler, das asymmetrische Dimethylarginin (ADMA) um den Faktor 4 ansteigt und damit 40-fach erhöhte Argininkonzentrationen zur Neutralisierung der gefährlichen Effekte dieses Sterblichkeitsfaktors benötigt werden. Diese Mengen können nur durch Einnahme von Arginin-Kapseln gedeckt werden. ★★ Bei einer Proteinzufuhr von etwa 70–90 g/Tag ergibt sich eine rechnerische tägliche Argininzufuhr von ca. 1–5 g/Tag. ★★ Als (semi)essentielle Aminosäure ist L-Arginin obligatorischer Bestandteil einer parenteralen Ernährung. In Elektrolyt-Konzentraten zum Zusatz zu Infusionslösungen und in peroralen Diätetika wird L-Arginin ebenfalls eingesetzt. Pharmazeutisch verwendet wird meistens das L-Arginin-Hydrochlorid. ### Arginin wird auch als Zusatz in Zahnpasta verwendet. Verglichen mit einer herkömmlichen Zahnpasta mit Fluoridzusatz wurde eine verbesserte Remineralisierung mit einer Kombination aus Arginin, Calciumcarbonat und Fluorid nachgewiesen. ★★ Arginin wird zur Supplementierung bei unzureichender Zufuhr oder erhöhtem Bedarf als diätetisches Lebensmittel für verschiedene Krankheitszustände wie erektile Dysfunktion, Arteriosklerose im Frühstadium, endotheliale Dysfunktion und Bluthochdruck vermarktet.

Too much vitamin A may weaken bones. Chromium adequate intake is 25 micrograms: If you so wish, taking 10 micrograms a day or less should be fine. Daily recommended Vitamin E intake is 3 mg in the UK, 15 mg in the US. "Antioxidant paradox": our bodies marshal free radicals to kill bacteria + cancer cells. A surge of antioxidants from supplements may let these nasties off the hook. Indeed, in high doses vitamin E supplements may increase the risk of prostate cancer. We can unwittingly build up gradually to worryingly high doses! VERDICT: Don't take Vit E supplements !!! Calcium: we need at least 700 mg each day. "For a start, too much calcium from supplements can cause kidney stones. But of graver concern are risks to the heart. A five-year trial of post-menopausal women found that those taking the supplements were more likely to suffer a heart attack or stroke than those who didn't. A subsequent analysis confirmedthe increased risk. As a result of such studies, medical advice is changing. Last year the US Preventive Services Task Force changed its guidance to recommend against the combination of calcium and vitamin D supplements for post-menopausal women."

Lifespan extension: coffee without milk promotes health by stimulating autophagy ★ Kaffee ohne Milch ⟿ Autophagie = Selbstverdauungsprogramm, das die Zellen reinigt & entgiftet: not as programmed cell death apoptosis! Kaffee = Autophagie-Auslöser: innerhalb von 1 – 4 Stunden wurde die zelluläre Autophagie von Leber, Skelett-Muskulatur und Herz – stark angekurbelt. Der dekoffeinierte und der koffeininhaltige Kaffee ist hierbei gleich wirksam ★ What is the difference between apoptosis and autophagy? Apoptosis is programmed cell death (can be seen as a cell "suicide"). It is the process by which the cell starts a chemical reaction pathway in order to kill itself. ★ Autophagy is where the cell breaks down and destroys one of its own components. This helps maintain a balance between cellular products so not too much of a certain compound (ie. proteins) is produced. ★ http://www.nature.com/nrm/journal/v8/n9/abs/nrm2239.html ★ Autophagy (self eating) is the process of self-digestion by a cell through the action of enzymes originating within the same cell. It occurs in case of nutrient starvation (increased levels of autophagy lead to the breakdown of non-vital components and the release of nutrients, ensuring that vital processes can continue) and infection (autophagy plays a role in the destruction of some bacteria within the cell). It acts as a repair mechanism and it is also attributed as programmed death for cell. ★ While, Apoptosis (self killing) is the disintegration of cells into membrane-bound particles that are then eliminated by phagocytosis or by shedding. Apoptosis is one means by which a developing organism shapes its tissues and organs. For instance, a human fetus has webbed hands and feet early on its development. Later, apoptosis removes skin cells, revealing individual fingers and toes. Apoptosis is also committed in times of distress, for the good of the organism as a whole.

Why are we more scared of raw egg than reheated rice? Rice can contain Bacillus cereus, which is resistant to heat! But rice is also a common cause. It can contain Bacillus cereus, which is resistant to heat. "It's one that a lot of people don't know about, but you do have to be very careful with rice," says Martin. "It's not that rice itself is dangerous but after it's been cooked there are spores of bacteria that can germinate." The advice is to cool it quickly if it is likely to be eaten later. "Take the worst of the heat out but then put it in the fridge, it doesn't need to be room temperature anymore - fridges have improved," adds Martin. He also advises spreading it in shallow dishes to speed up cooling, or more simply, just cook the amount you want to eat. It's a very bad idea to eat rice that's been sitting in a buffet at room temperature after being cooked. Any reheating at home should be thorough but is only safe if the advice above has been followed.

Insgesamt entstanden 32 Bände mit 330.000 Wörtern. http://goo.gl/xDhNf Die großen Wörterbücher werden nicht mehr gedruckt. Auch die Arbeit am DEUTSCHEN WÖRTERBUCH der Brüder Grimm wird nach 170 Jahren eingestellt. Die digitale Variante ist nunmehr im DIGITALEN WÖRTERBUCH DER DEUTSCHEN SPRACHE (DWDS) integriert, denn heute ist das Internet der gebotene Raum für Nachschlagewerke. It is also compiled by the Berlin Academy of Sciences and Humanities http://www.dwds.de/

Bioflavonoids / Flavonoids http://www.acu-cell.com/bio.html QUERCETIN & HESPERIDIN: antibacterial,antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant. Quercetin, through both its direct antioxidant activity and through the inhibition of enzymes like lipoxygenase and other inflammatory mediators, works as a systemic anti-inflammatory agent. Like many pharmaceutical ant-inflammatory drugs, hesperidin inhibits cycloxegenase, or COX. Hesperidin also affects inflammatory pathways by blocking a number of other enzymes

Das Flavonoid Quercetin und das Immunsystem: Foods rich in quercetin include black and green tea apples (440 mg/kg), onion, especially red onion (191 mg/kg) (higher concentrations of quercetin occur in the outermost rings and in the part closest to the root, the latter being the part of the plant with the highest concentration), red grapes, citrus fruit, tomato, broccoli and other leafy green vegetables, and a number of berries (Bilberries) http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quercetin ★ Quercetin glycosides occur in broccoli, apples, and especially in onions, with an abundance as high as 0.25–0.5 g/kg

An Apple 1 - computer from 1976 was auctioned for 400000 € in Bochum http://www.stern.de/video/video-ur-rechner-apple-18220-von-1976-fuer-400000-euro-versteigert-1931652.html It was built by Steve Wozniak and sold for $666.66

Without the side effects, Naringenin, an antioxidant which gives grapefruit its bitter taste, can do the same job as two separate drugs currently used to manage Type 2 diabetes ★ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1306240/Antioxidant-grapefruit-help-treat-diabetes.html ★ The flavanones naringenin and hesperetin exhibit estrogenic, anticarcinogenic and antioxidative properties. Orange juice and grapefruit juice contain high amounts of these compounds, and therefore their intake from the diet can be relatively high. Because of the relatively high concentrations of flavanones in plasma after after ingestion of grapefruit juice, considerable health effects could ensue in individuals consuming them regularly ★ Flavonoid compounds exhibit inhibitory effects against multiple viruses. While naringin was not inhibitory to herpes simplex virus, poliovirus, parainfluenza virus, the other three flavonoids were effective in various ways: Hesperetin reduced intracellular replication of all four viruses; catechin inhibited infectivity but not intracellular replication of RSV and HSV-1; and quercetin was universally effective in reducing infectivity!

Turmeric extract — curcumin derived from turmeric — may protect heart after surgery: half of those patients were given one-gram curcumin capsules to take 4 times a day, starting 3 days before their surgery and continuing for 5 days afterwards: people on curcumins had a 65% lower chance of heart attack. One limitation was that the study was relatively small. Another is that while curcumins are thought to be safe, there could be side effects at very large doses. April 16, 2012

Investors Pay to Lend Germany Money! While many euro-zone nations are struggling to obtain credit, investors are practically throwing money at Germany. The country on Monday raised almost 4 billion euros in six-month debt at a negative interest rate. In effect, investors paid Germany to be able to lend it money. The move highlights the economic imbalances in crisis-ridden Europe! Investors in Europe are so worried about the euro crisis and so desperate to find a safe haven for their cash that they decided to forego an interest rate, and even paid a premium, for the privilege of lending Germany money on Monday! http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/0,1518,808080,00.html ★ → "Erstmals haben Investoren dem deutschen Staat eine Prämie gezahlt, um ihm Geld leihen zu dürfen. Bei einer Emission von Geldmarktpapieren mit einer Laufzeit von sechs Monaten lag die Rendite unter Null. Genauer gesagt betrug die durchschnittliche Rendite minus 0,0122 Prozent. Ein solch negativer Zinssatz kommt zustande, wenn für eine Anleihe mehr bezahlt wird als die Summe aus Nennwert und Zinskupon. "Das hat es bislang noch nie gegeben", sagte ein Sprecher der Bundesfinanzagentur zu Reuters. "Die Anleger bezahlen eine gewisse Prämie dafür, dass sie dem deutschen Staat Geld leihen."
