  • How to Prevent, Test & Treat Your Possible Niacin Toxicity & Deficiency
    Niacin is an essential component of the human body and it works by aiding in the process of energy metabolism in all living cells and most importantly works to assist in DNA repair. It even has a role in how certain hormones are produced in the adrenal glands, particularly those involved with the body’s stress response.
  • On Both Sides of the Niacin Scale: Signs of Toxicity and Deficiency
    Niacin is an essential part of the human body. Also known as Vitamin B3, it works hard in the process of metabolism and even aids in the process of DNA repair. It is also vital in the area of hormone production, aiding the adrenal glands in this process. Because niacin is so vital to normal body function, it is even more harmful when this substance becomes off kilter. Meaning, when you have too much or too little niacin, problems are sure to arise.
  • Signs and Symptoms of Cushing’s Syndrome
    Cortisol is yet another one of the essential elements of the human body. It is a hormone that helps to regulate blood pressure, the immune system and aids in the process of metabolizing proteins, fats and carbohydrates. However, when the body is inundated with this hormone, problems arise. When cortisol remains in high levels in the body, it begins to affect the tissues of the body, resulting in Cushing’s Syndrome.
  • Signs and Symptoms of Magnesium Deficiency
    Magnesium is one of the essential components necessary for the body to function normally. It is not just necessary for human; rather, it is essential for all living organisms as magnesium ions are a part of the nucleic acid chemistry of all living cells and things. Because it is so vital, you can imagine what should happen if someone were to be magnesium deficient.
  • Signs and Symptoms of Selenium Toxicity
    Like many substances found in the human body, selenium is essential to all living cells as it plays an important role in the production of certain enzymes. In fact, these enzymes are in part responsible for the production of antioxidants, which are known to prevent cancer. However, selenium is also very toxic and if presented in the body in larger quantities than the trace amounts that are normal, complications could develop.
  • Signs of Elevated Manganese Levels
    Manganese is another one of those essential nutrients the body needs in order to function properly. It is present in all living organisms and works alongside enzymes. While it is working down at the microscopic level, manganese has full body effects and is necessary in order for the adrenal glands and thyroid to function as they should.
  • Why Elevated Levels of Homocysteine Are Bad For Your Health
    Homocysteine comes from the amino acid cysteine. It is a naturally occurring substance in the body and essential for good health. However, high levels are serious grounds for trouble especially in regards to the heart.
