by Ocean Robbins: Mushrooms have been eaten and used medicinally for thousands of years, all around the world…
Ancient Egyptians considered mushrooms to be plants of immortality and recognized them as a gift from the god Osiris. They valued mushrooms so highly, only the royals were allowed to consume them; commoners were forbidden to touch, much less eat them.
Based on the details of ancient rock paintings, some historians think that the use of magic mushrooms was alive and well in 9,000 BC among indigenous populations of North Africa. (I don’t know where those cave artists found tie-dye paint, but you can’t argue with science!) Furthermore, statues and art thought to represent mushrooms have been found in Mayan and Aztec ruins in Central America, establishing their ceremonial importance in the Americas over many thousands of years.

Global Tissue and Organ Transplantation Market to Surpass US$ 25.6 Billion by 2027, Says Coherent Market Insights (CMI) SEATTLE (Business Wire) According to Coherent Market Insights, the global tissue and organ transplantation market is estimated to be valued at
US$ 13.9 Billion in 2020 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of
9.1% during the forecast period (2020-2027).
Key Trends and Analysis of the Global
:
The global tissue and organ transplantation market is expected to witness significant growth, owing to increasing R&D activities in tissue transplantation. For instance, in May 2019, researchers from AMALNA Consulting and RMIT University, in collaboration with Tithon Biotech Inc., predicted the characteristic frequencies related to parathyroid hormone activities, particularly differentiation of stem cells into osteoblasts. The research findings can aid in development of improved techniques for differentiation of stem cells in tissue transplantati
If it’s difficult for you to get a restful night of sleep every night, you re not alone: According to the CDC, one in three adults in the United States sleep less than the recommended seven hours per night. Our national insomnia is linked to a variety of causes, including ill health, aging, and stress, according to Columbia University’s Neurology Department. But it also has a lot to do with what we eat.
A new and growing body of research suggests that what one eats impacts how you sleep at night. Powerful nutrients from the food in your diet can play a role in how much sleep you get and how high-quality it is, according to a 2017 report published in Public Health Nutrition. The literature review analyzed 26 articles about how micronutrients impacted sleep development of sleep stages in infants and reversing the age-related changes in sleep in older adults. Sleep duration was positively linked with iron, zinc, and magnesium levels while negatively associated with copper, p

What s a tincture?
If you have migraines, you ve likely tried all sorts of treatments to get relief. Amid medications and lifestyle changes, perhaps you ve considered trying CBD tinctures for headache pain.

What s a CBD tincture?
This old-timey word for an old-fashioned kind of medicine has evolved to mean, at least in the world of cannabidiol or CBD, any product containing hemp extract that can be taken sublingually, or under the tongue.
Scientists develop an enhanced version of phototoxic protein
Scientists from Skoltech, the Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry of RAS, and the London Institute of Medical Sciences (LMS) have developed an enhanced version of SuperNova, a genetically encoded phototoxic synthesizer, that helps control intracellular processes by light exposure. The research was published in the
International Journal of Molecular Sciences.
An important research tool, phototoxic proteins are used as genetically encoded photosensitizers to generate reactive oxygen species under light irradiation. In contrast to common chemical photosensitizers, phototoxic proteins are genetically encoded and expressed by the cell itself, which makes them easy to control and direct to any selected compartment in the cell. Thanks to reactive oxygen species formed by the action of light, phototoxic proteins can create strictly localized oxidative stress, for example, to destroy a selected cell population or disable target pr
