Achilles injuries: Why is it so difficult to recover from an Achilles tendon tear?

May 18, 2020 -

It might seem inconsequential for most people, but the Achilles tendon is one of the strongest tendons in the body that help support overall balance. This tendon is also what allows you to stay upright and walk straight, which is why a damaged Achilles tendon can put athletes out of commission for seasons at a time.

But this injury is also common in people who are not involved in sports. For instance, women who wear high heels frequently are more likely ...

Leftists say “Adam’s apple,” “Achilles tendon” are “sexist” body parts

July 23, 2020 -

Body parts like the "Adam's apple" and the "Achilles tendon," both of which have male connotations, are "sexist" and need to go, according to Dr. Kristin Small, a gynecologist, specialist obstetrician and anatomy lecturer in Queensland.

She and Dr. Nisha Khot, a council member for the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, say that any male references in the anatomical literature are "irrelevant and misogynistic," simply because ...

The Achilles heel of mail-in ballot fraud

July 26, 2023 -

(Article by Jay Valentine republished from AmericanThinker.com)

Elections are for big stakes.  Pretty much everything is political, and thus, who controls the Legislature gets the goodies.

If you are a government pro, you live or die according to whether your team is in power.  You do what the pros do — you make sure you control your food source.

The laughable RNC "out-ballot-harvest the left" plan is one any sentient adult knows cannot work.  That of course ...

Common antibiotics cause tendon ruptures; Public Citizen demands black box warnings

August 30, 2006 - Common antibiotics cause tendon ruptures; Public Citizen demands black box warnings

Wednesday, August 30, 2006 by: NewsTargetTags: antibiotics, drug side effects, dangerous drugs"Tendon ruptures associated with these drugs continue to occur at a disturbing rate, but could be prevented if doctors and patients were more aware of early warning signals, such as the onset of tendon pain, and switched to other antibiotics," said Sidney Wolfe, director of Public Citizen's Health ...

Biologists identify the protein that makes tendon-muscle connections last a lifetime

September 27, 2019 -

Muscles and tendons are connected to each other by attachments, which are designed to withstand high amounts of mechanical forces throughout an animal's lifetime. In a study published in PLOS Biology, researchers from the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry in Germany investigated how these mechanical forces are sensed and transmitted in an intact organism. Using Drosophila (fruit fly) as their experimental model, they quantified the mechanical forces transmitted by talin, ...

Global Sulfur Crisis: The Chemical Achilles Heel of Modern Civilization Has Been Severed

13 days ago - The War That Broke the World: A Chemical Cascade of Collapse Begins

The devastating attacks on critical Gulf infrastructure have not merely disrupted markets; they have severed the global supply of elemental sulfur and its derivative, sulfuric acid. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz -- through which roughly 20% of the world’s oil flows -- coupled with the systematic destruction of storage and refining facilities in Iran, means zero spot sulfur is available on the global market [1]....

SCIENCE WARS: True science is the ENEMY of the Vaccine Industrial Complex and the Achilles Heel of the Climate Change Hoax

May 14, 2024 -

The "socialism" is settled, and it has NOTHING at all to do with science, otherwise, all the conspiracy theories would crumble to bits instantly. The science shows that vaccines are dangerous, and that the risk highly outweighs the benefits, if there even are any. The science shows the earth is actually in a slow cooling period lasting thousands of years. The science shows that cosmetic operations, hormone pills and breasts and genitalia-mutilation surgeries do not make a boy a ...

DEBT is the Achilles Heel of the globalist establishment… and pulling your money out of the banking system is the way to deal a DEATH BLOW to tyranny

January 16, 2019 -

The Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and the S&P 500 all finished the year lower than they were in September. Worse, there are predictions that 2019 could hit markets harder. 

Bank of America just polled 234 panelists who manage more than $645 billion in investments where they think global growth is heading over the next 12 months, and 60 percent said it will be negative. 

On top of this potential nightmare scenario is the fact that governments around the world comprising the ...

Use of fluoroquinolone antibiotics linked to aortic damage and deadly heart conditions

August 09, 2023 -

The agency first added a boxed warning to fluoroquinolones in 2008 because of the increased risk of tendonitis and tendon rupture associated with the drug.

Studies suggest that the body’s microbiome is composed of at least 39 trillion bacteria. While you're young, your family, dietary intake and environmental exposure contribute to the variety in your microbiome, which in turn affects your lifelong health.

Daily activities like eating, brushing your teeth, kissing ...

Your liver is WHERE? Clueless millennials know less about basic anatomy than any previous generation

November 11, 2017 -

Millennials aren't as well-versed with anatomy, and this is negatively affecting healthcare. Researchers from the Lancaster Medical School administered the anatomical test and based on the results, middle-aged non-graduates received higher scores compared to the young graduates who also participated.

The researchers warned that the low quiz results could imply that the public has a “poor knowledge of anatomy,” and that this can lower the effectiveness of health screening ...

FAKE NEWS: ESPN photoshopped Tiger Woods DUI arrest photo to make him look less ragged and deranged

June 04, 2017 -

While the mugshot released by the Palm Beach, Florida, County Sheriff’s Office reveals a bleary-eyed, unkempt looking Tiger with seriously big, wild hair, the initial ESPN report cleaned him up a bit by using photoshop to give him a neat buzzcut. An Internet furor broke out after an eagle-eyed reader spotted the difference and tweeted about it.

While it is indisputable that Woods looks pretty bad in both pictures, he certainly looks far more clean-cut and less crazy in ...

Scientists create protein-based gel that can absorb supersonic projectile impacts

December 22, 2022 -

The breakthrough study conducted by United Kingdom's University of Kent researchers, led by Professors Ben Goult and Jen Hiscock, indicated that the protective material known as talin could ensure the safety of military and police personnel, as well as guard airplanes and spacecraft against flying debris.

Named TSAM (Talin Shock Absorbing Materials), this novel protein-based family of materials represents the first known example of a synthetic biology material capable ...

One month after receiving second COVID injection, woman develops psoriatic arthritis

December 31, 2023 -

According to the paper, the woman was already under treatment at the time for plaque psoriasis, a disease she had been suffering with for 44 years. Plaque psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that produces thick patches of psoriasis on the skin, including on the scalp.

The woman was used to her normal, decades-long symptoms of plaque psoriasis at the time when she took her second shot of Pfizer in 2021. Just weeks later, she was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, a form ...

Vampire therapy: Using your own blood as a treatment for various illnesses

December 14, 2016 -

The treatment, platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP) – also known as “vampire therapy” – works by centrifuging blood and separating white blood cells and platelets from the red blood cells, so that the resulting platelet- and white blood cell-rich concentration can be re-injected into a specific injured area or applied topically to areas that need healing, such as acne-scarred skin.

Experts say that what makes the platelets so effective in healing are the numerous growth ...
