Antibiotic CIPRO may become basis of new herbicide?!

Antibiotic CIPRO may become basis of new herbicide?!

Posted by | Mar 15, 2016 | ,

Antibiotic CIPRO may become basis of new herbicide As if the antibiotic run off from factory farms isn’t bad enough, it appears West Australian scientists are, “exploring the possibilities for an antibiotic to be used as a new herbicide”. The drug Ciprofloxacin (Cipro) is currently used to kill gangrene, cholecystitis, chlamydia and a host of other bacterial infections. “It kills plants in a very similar fashion to the way it kills microbes, by binding and interfering with an enzyme called gyrase, which helps the DNA unwind as it’s being replicated”, reports ABC. According to Dr Josh Mylne, senior lecturer...

15-Year-Old Puts Cancer Industry To Shame: Develops 100% Accurate Cancer Test Using Google

Posted by | Mar 15, 2016 | , ,

15-Year-Old Puts Cancer Industry To Shame [Editor’s Note: You might have already seen this in mainstream, but this kid is still a marvel and this information needs to stay in the public eye. We MUST continue to demand better testing for ourselves and our loved ones.] Jack Andraka, a 15 year-old boy from Crownsville, Maryland, watched a beloved family friend (who was like an uncle) die of pancreatic cancer. But instead of just accepting that people die from this horrible disease, he got to work trying to figure out a better testing method to detect early stage, pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic Cancer...

Canada’s Food Guide Should Seek Inspiration From Brazil

Canada’s Food Guide Should Seek Inspiration From Brazil In almost every Canadian school there is a rainbow poster which is supposed to teach kids what kind of food they should be eating; green is for vegetables, the yellow for grains, blue for dairy, and the red for protein. However, a Canadian researcher who has already helped Brazilians to rethink how they eat believes that Canada’s Food Guide should begin focusing instead of eliminating processed food. Yes and amen. At the beginning of the month, Canada’s Senate released a report on their obesity crisis (we know a bit about that as well)....

Fighting Cancer By Putting Tumor Cells On A Diet

Fighting Cancer By Putting Tumor Cells On A Diet German physician, Otto Warburg, reported in the 1920s that rather than generating energy using the oxygen-based process of respiration like healthy cells do, that cancer cells preferred the oxygen-free, process of fermentation. Currently, cancer doctrine says that most malignancies are caused by DNA mutations inside the nuclei of cells and that these mutations ultimately lead to runaway cellular proliferation; a good cell turned bad. Cancer has come to be understood as a set of diseases and many oncologists offer personalized treatments to be most successful. But what if Otto Warburg was right?...

This Algae Battery Might Power a Tesla Car With 200x The Charge Five years later… Fukushima is still spewing nuclear waste into the Pacific Ocean. It seems ironic that the ocean offers an abundance of potential energy that would offset the need for nuclear energy.  Luckly for us, one engineer has found the key to changing free and abundant seaweed into electricity.    Seaweed holds potential energy… possibly enough to power a Tesla car. Adam Freeman, an inventor at aIGAS, believes it may even rival the lithium-based battery we use today. The Science… Algae batteries have quite a few advantages...
