What are some common causes of anemia

Anemia, which is common in HIV disease, is usually caused by 1) late-stage HIV, presumably due to viral infection of progenitor cells, 2) associated complications that infiltrate the marrow, 3) nutritional deficiency, 4) adverse drug reacti…

Just some help, what NOT to feed your dog.?

Q: s to avoid Reasons to avoid Alcoholic beverages Can cause intoxication, coma, and death. Baby food Can contain onion powder, which can be toxic to dogs. (Please see onion below.) Can also result in nutritional deficiencies, if fed in large amounts. Bones from fish, poultry, or other meat sources Can cause obstruction or laceration of the digestive system. Cat food Generally too high in protein and fats. Chocolate, coffee, tea, and other caffeine Contain caffeine, theobromine, or theophylline, which can be toxic and affect the heart and nervous systems. Citrus oil extracts Can cause vomiting. Fat trimmings Can cause pancreatitis. Grapes and raisins Contain an unknown toxin, which can damage the kidneys. There have been no problems associated with grape seed extract. Hops Unknown compound causes panting, increased heart rate, elevated temperature, seizures, and death. Human vitamin supplements containing iron Can damage the lining of the digestive system and be toxic to the other organs including the liver and kidneys. Large amounts of liver Can cause Vitamin A toxicity, which affects muscles and bones. Macadamia nuts Contain an unknown toxin, which can affect the digestive and nervous systems and muscle. Marijuana Can depress the nervous system, cause vomiting, and changes in the heart rate. Milk and other dairy products Some adult dogs and cats do not have sufficient amounts of the enzyme lactase, which breaks down the lactose in milk. This can result in diarrhea. Lactose-free milk products are available for pets. Moldy or spoiled food, garbage Can contain multiple toxins causing vomiting and diarrhea and can also affect other organs. Mushrooms Can contain toxins, which may affect multiple systems in the body, cause shock, and result in death. Onions and garlic (raw, cooked, or powder) Contain sulfoxides and disulfides, which can damage red blood cells and cause anemia. Cats are more susceptible than dogs. Garlic is less toxic than onions. Persimmons Seeds can cause intestinal obstruction and enteritis. Pits from peaches and plums Can cause obstruction of the digestive tract. Potato, rhubarb, and tomato leaves; potato and tomato stems Contain oxalates, which can affect the digestive, nervous, and urinary systems. This is more of a problem in livestock. Raw eggs Contain an enzyme called avidin, which decreases the absorption of biotin (a B vitamin). This can lead to skin and hair coat problems. Raw eggs may also contain Salmonella. Raw fish Can result in a thiamine (a B vitamin) deficiency leading to loss of appetite, seizures, and in severe cases, death. More common if raw fish is fed regularly. Salt If eaten in large quantities it may lead to electrolyte imbalances. String Can become trapped in the digestive system; called a “string foreign body.” Sugary foods Can lead to obesity, dental problems, and possibly diabetes mellitus. Table scraps (in large amounts) Table scraps are not nutritionally balanced. They should never be more than 10% of the diet. Fat should be trimmed from meat; bones should not be fed. Tobacco Contains nicotine, which affects the digestive and nervous systems. Can result in rapid heart beat, collapse, coma, and death. Yeast dough Can expand and produce gas in the digestive system, causing pain and possible rupture of the stomach or intestines.

Anemia Treatment?

Q: I am a male in my mid 20s. I have suspected for some time that I may be anemic, especially since it is common in my family. I often experience fatigue and other symptoms of anemia. It was finally confirmed by one of my doctors recently that I did, in fact, have a slight iron deficiency. I have not yet seen my family doctor concerning the issue. My question is… Is there anyone out there who has been diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia and received treatment. If so, what was the result of the treatment? Was there a significant change in health (more energy, strength, change in mood, etc) after treatment? I just started taking a multi-vitamin with iron recently(Mens One-A-Day Active) in hopes that it will improve my general well-being, if in fact the anemia is the cause of many of my problems. Thank you

A: Yes, I’m anemic secondary to another medical condition that causes it. I’ve been prescribed iron pills to take daily and I take in more iron in my diet. I’ve noticed that I’m not nearly as tired as I was without treating it.

Natural selection wrong due to transmission of harmful genes What ya think?

Q: the australian poet colin leslie dean shows Natural selection wrong due to transmission of harmful genes http://gamahucherpress.yellowgum.com/books/philosophy/Natural_selection.pdfnatural selection isnatural selection, a process that causes helpful traits (those that increase the chance of survival and reproduction) to become more common in a population and causes harmful traits to become more rare”(Ref: Futuyma, Douglas Evolution 2005”note it sayscauses harmful traits to become more rare”sohttp://filebox.vt.edu/cals/cses/chagedor/Biotechnology.htmlThere are over 500 genetic diseases. Many are recessive mutations and they develop only because both parents contribute the same recessive gene to their child. Some common genetic diseases include cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy, hemophilia, and sickle-cell anemiahttp://www.accessmylibrary.com/article-1G1-75289954/genetic-disorders-common-among.htmlGenetic Disorders Common Among Hospitalized Children.Genomics & Genetics Weekly| May 25, 2001The new findings and their potential implications were presented April 30 to the 2001 Pediatric Academic Societies and American Academy of Pediatrics joint meeting in Baltimore, Maryland.2001 MAY 25 – (NewsRx Network) — New research indicates that a vast majority of children admitted to hospitals have a genetically determined underlying disorder.The study, led by a pediatrician and medical geneticist at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, found such disorders accounting for more than two-thirds of all children admitted to a large full-service pediatric hospital over a one-year period.Moreover, regardless of reason for admission, children whose underlying disorder had a strong genetic basis tended to be hospitalized longer, with charges for their care accounting for 80% of total costs.you sayGenetically inherited diseases you have mentioned do not have a gross phenotypic presentation – also evolution occurs over an immense, expansive period of time – this does not disprove the theory.i say wrong on 2 countsNS say harmfull genes shond be eliminated but as shown harmful genes are common2 the cambrian explosion shows ns does not take place over a long time-which darwin thought showed ns to be wrongyou sayGenetically inherited diseases you have mentioned do not have a gross phenotypic presentation – also evolution occurs over an immense, expansive period of time – this does not disprove the theory.i say wrong on 2 countsNS say harmfull genes shoud be eliminated but as shown harmful genes are common2 the cambrian explosion shows ns does not take place over a long time-which darwin thought showed ns to be wrongyou sayNote that “more rare” does NOT equal “non-existentfact is they are not rare but COMMONthus showing ns to be wrongyou sayIn a state of nature, sickly children would not live long enough to reproduce and thus perpetuating otherwise harmful mutations.fact is human s are a social animal where every one helps every one else to survivethat is our natural state what you think our natural state is the way non social animals liveyou sayNatural selection absolutely CANNOT completely remove a recessive negative trait.ns says harmful genes become rarebutinstead they are commonthus showing ns is wrongyou sayThey were rare.
