Hydrogenation also extends the shelf life of these fatty acids, and preserves them through better stabilization. “When the hydrogen’s are on opposite sides of the double bond, called the trans configuration, the fatty acid is a trans fatty acid.” (Grosvenor & Smolin, 2006) Trans fatty acids can increase your risk of heart disease. Saturated and trans fats are considered the worst for your health due to the proven increased risk of cardiovascular disease, including stroke, and high cholesterol levels according to the American Heart Association (2010). Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are better for your diet, and contain some of the best fatty acids, Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. These lipids can actually help reduce your risk of heart disease, and cholesterol related health

Here is what I had said for the Topamax and Mary’s headache 7. The Topamax is causing the acid-base disturbance and her respiratory system is attempting to compensate through hyperventilation to decrease H+ and bring her pH up. The H+ however is increasing because the Topamax is causing the renal carbonic anhydrase to redirect HCO3- out of the body and retain H+. 8. B: Ingestion of an acidifying drug in this case is to blame.
Caffeine & Alcohol Effect on the Water Flea Heart Rate Abstract In this study, water fleas (Daphnia magna), a semi-transparent freshwater crustacean, are used to study the effects of caffeine and alcohol on heart rate. There was a control group used along with the alcohol and caffeine to ensure the results were more accurate. The prediction was the introduction of alcohol and each increased concentration of alcohol, would decrease heart rate and the introduction and subsequent increased concentrations of caffeine would increase heart rate. The results of this experiment proved the prediction to be correct with the alcohol, but the results from the caffeine were hardly noticeable. Methods & Materials
Methamphetamine increases the release and blocks the reuptake of the brain chemical (or neurotransmitter) dopamine, leading to high levels of the chemical in the brain, a common mechanism of action for most drugs of abuse. Dopamine is involved in reward, motivation, the experience of pleasure, and motor function in the human body. Methamphetamine’s ability to release dopamine rapidly in reward regions of the brain produces the intense euphoria, or “rush,” that many users feel after snorting, smoking, or injecting the drug. Chronic methamphetamine abuse significantly changes how the brain functions. Noninvasive human brain imaging studies have shown alterations in the activity of the dopamine system that are associated with reduced motor skills and impaired verbal learning.
When you heat this, the water surrounding the membranes expands, and molecules gain more kinetic energy and vibrate around more. This disrupts the phospholipid bilayer. The more you heat the beetroot, the more the phospholipid bilayer is disrupted, meaning more betacyanin can leak out of the vacuole. Another big factor in the breaking of the membrane is that the beetroot contains some protein, and when this is heated the amino
Researchers believe that, elevated dopamine levels, psychiatric conditions, and being restrained are some of the factors that cause excited delirium. Per Wesley elevated levels of dopamine are the cause of Excited Delirium symptoms. With the increase in dopamine along with the effects of stimulant drugs the body has an increase in metabolic activity that induces hyperthermia. With all the increase in muscle use you have an elevated creatinine phosphokinase from the muscle death causing the patient to become acidotic. Now the patient is hyperkalemic from the metabolic acidosis causing dysrhythmias leading to cardiac arrest.
Niacin can lower high cholesterol levels and potassium has been shown to lower high blood pressure and to reduce the risk of heart disease. Vitamin B6 and folate also work to convert the homocysteine in our bodies into harmless molecules. High levels of homocysteine are associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. The fiber in tomatoes also helps lower cholesterol levels, helps prevent colon cancer, and helps to keep blood sugars at a low level. Tomatoes are a source of riboflavin, which has been shown to be helpful for migraine sufferers by reducing the frequency of their
