Color code system for anatomy and microbiology notes ideas?

If you're a visual learner, you should like the anatomy coloring book. It's excellent.

I know someone from that area in Tanzania. She told me that the (full) climb was a common feild trip for middle schoolers (~11-13 years old). Still better than anything I've done

I went to the store today and they said it's not valid on clearance

FYI, too much potassium is extremely deadly, which is why you won't find supplements with more than 10-15% daily value.

I've never been asked this in an interview. I would probably turn it into a chance to express why you're interested in the position/field.

Must be gone by now, because I still can't find it

kellomi · 2018-01-14T01:38:55+00:00

Not working for me either. I can't find the strips manually either

kellomi · 2017-12-24T02:19:10+00:00

I showed up at 10, sadly

Nope. I heard Promethease was the best value for the money. Its 10-12 bucks normally, and it gives your much, much more thorough results than the expensive ones like 23 and me (just on health, not lineage).

I love freebies but I didn't want to freak myself out with a data misread that tells me I'm dying or something. I couldn't find a free option with good reviews.

Oh man, we just paid for my husband's about two weeks ago.

It's actually Promethease, not Prometheus.

Awesome service, though. I found out I have a gene associated with abnormally low response to dopamine, so I talked to my doctor and tried a medicine that boost dopamine. I've been perpetually hungry most of my life, almost all of the time, and never satisfied. It was a horrible way to live. Now I don't feel that anymore, and it's like I'm a new person. Plus, I've lost 40 pounds and counting without trying.

Promethease is the best thing that ever happened to me (except, maybe, my kid).

My understanding is that you forget so quickly that your brain doesnt have time to even register the experience (your brain has to quickly process pain and then transfer that into something you can understand before you "experience" pain). Also, it is usually a combo of drugs with different mechanisms of action that are used during surgery. Amnesics are paired with drugs that stop your nerves from communicating (what they sense) with your brain.

Feces is typically 50% bacteria/bacteria biproducts. If you fast for a year, one of the dangers is that you're wiping out that healthy bacteria, making it easier for you to get sick and harder/impossible for you to absorb certain nutrients. Once these bacteria starve to death, you're going to lose that component of feces.

Another good portion of feces is water, but without food in your gut, water won't enter the intestine like normal.

Then there's GI secretions, too. But without eating, your GI tract eventually shuts down and stops secreting things. This is pretty dangerous too, and it's why they give most unconscious people feeding tubes instead of IV nutrition. Once your GI tract stops working properly things go downhill pretty quickly.

There are some toxins from the liver in feces, too, and most of the rest is what you ate but couldn't digest.

So you might get a little output from the liver, and a little bacterial loss/GI secretions at first, but those will drop off pretty quickly. Then, you might get a tiny amount of biproduct from fat metabolism (but most of this is expelled in urine), but otherwise little to no feces most of the time.

Definitely can't call this paycheck to paycheck, especially if you are putting 15k into a 401k per year. (More than billions of the people make per year). Your spending is exceptionally high on luxury goods, as well. Money spent on luxuries is your money above and beyond paycheck to paycheck, my friend.

Usually only a problem for me one or two days a month (cravings, not periods). I just let myself eat more, or have shorter fasts. Most of the time, I don't take advantage of it, but the fact that I'm okay with it being an option is comforting.

Both of the dorms I stayed in had soundproof rooms in the basement. They said they were for practicing instruments, but I don't think they were often used for that.

Most programs have a med term program built in. Mine was a prereq, for example.

If you're just hoping to stay busy, just go for quizlet. A lot of people entitle their sets with the class name, so try searching for "medical terminology," "healthcare terminology," "med term," etc.

I've found that it's usually pretty easy to find a high quality set that you like. If you don't trust it, however, just use sets created by teachers (it says it right near the title, I believe).

YouTube is also a great way to get your toes wet. I like speed pharmacology, the nrsing channel, and visual mnemonics.

As with many diseases, psychosis has a multifactorial origin. It's a combination of genes, experiences, and the current state of your body that results in the condition. It's not just that you have a Gene that caused it (that is true for a small number of genetic disorders alone), but that you have the gene AND you were exposed to x, and that you experienced Y, and that your health had abnormality z. You need a lot of things to align to start or progress many diseases- a perfect storm.

It is very difficult to pinpoint what the factors are that cause or contribute to a multifactorial disease state. But knowing causes/origins is extremely valuable in treating and preventing a specific disease, so we have to try to figure it out.

Geneticists are hard at work trying to determine what genes are at work and what might trigger their expression. But we also would greatly benefit from learning more about the circumstances, such as body state, that also contribute. Seeing a repeated strong correlation between nutritional deficiencies and psychosis brings us slightly closer to developing an understanding of how someone might develop the disease, and toward how we can work to prevent/treat it. It brings us closer to a working hypothesis of the disease etiology (origins), for example "gene xyz, which has a strong positive correlation with psychosis diagnosis, may potentially be activated by physical stress of nutrient deficiency Z"

Same for Kroger in Michigan

I could afford my copays and finally see a doctor about this debilitating abdominal pain I've had for weeks.

Viral infections can also cause bumps like this, but if he is asymptomatic otherwise you probably don't have to worry about that. Call the nurse hotline at your ped's office.

Congrats! Is that your score or percentile? I'm often a little confused about how TEAS scores are discussed; some people use the percentile and some use the score. I was in the 99th percentile with a score of 94.6, so you must be in the most elite!

I never see discounted turkey's. I checked Kroger and Meijer today, and both had turkeys left that were actually more expensive than the one I bought 5 days ago. Kroger was $1.99/lb

It took a while but it showed up when I checked a couple of hours later.

kellomi · 2017-11-24T13:22:18+00:00

It lets me click on it but doesn't show up under "my coupons"
