| chapter 20 cardiovascular system the heart answers: Regulation of Tissue Oxygenation, Second Edition Roland N. Pittman, 2016-08-18 This presentation describes various aspects of the regulation of tissue oxygenation, including the roles of the circulatory system, respiratory system, and blood, the carrier of oxygen within these components of the cardiorespiratory system. The respiratory system takes oxygen from the atmosphere and transports it by diffusion from the air in the alveoli to the blood flowing through the pulmonary capillaries. The cardiovascular system then moves the oxygenated blood from the heart to the microcirculation of the various organs by convection, where oxygen is released from hemoglobin in the red blood cells and moves to the parenchymal cells of each tissue by diffusion. Oxygen that has diffused into cells is then utilized in the mitochondria to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of all cells. The mitochondria are able to produce ATP until the oxygen tension or PO2 on the cell surface falls to a critical level of about 4–5 mm Hg. Thus, in order to meet the energetic needs of cells, it is important to maintain a continuous supply of oxygen to the mitochondria at or above the critical PO2 . In order to accomplish this desired outcome, the cardiorespiratory system, including the blood, must be capable of regulation to ensure survival of all tissues under a wide range of circumstances. The purpose of this presentation is to provide basic information about the operation and regulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, as well as the properties of the blood and parenchymal cells, so that a fundamental understanding of the regulation of tissue oxygenation is achieved. |

While conventional medicine offers no permanent solutions to these conditions, natural health author Shann Nix Jones has discovered a chemical-free method that delivers life-changing results. In the Good Skin Solution, Shann recounts her struggle to heal her son’s eczema and save her husband from a life-threatening MRSA superbug infection. She was shocked to learn that eczema isn’t just a skin condition after all, but an autoimmune disorder. Your skin is simply a map of your gut—and in order to heal your skin, you must start from the inside. Shann reveals the latest scientific research about the “microbiome,” the vast ecosystem of microorganisms that lives inside our gut. In simple, easy-to-understand language, she explains the gut-skin connection: what health conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, and acne really are; why they’re often accompanied by hay fever, asthma, IBS, and food allergies; and how adopting the kefir-based Good Skin Solution can help treat the symptoms and the underlying causes. If you or anyone you know suffers from an ongoing skin condition, this book could be the lifeline you’ve been waiting for. |

| chapter 20 cardiovascular system the heart answers: Disease Reprieve T. C. McDaniel, 2000-09-20 The Golden Years Society Inc. is pleased to announce the publication of Disease Reprieve by Dr. T. C. McDaniel. Dr. McDaniel is a sole practitioner in Cincinnati, specializing in Cardiovascular-Renal disease. He writes in detail about his 35 years of research in an effort to cure his personal health problems, and outlines in detail how he applied those scientific principles to the care and treatment of more than 10,000 patients. For the first time, both Physicians and patients will learn the components of The Wheel of MisFortune. This teaching device has been used successfully in Seminars for Physicians in the U.S., Canada and Europe. Now you can learn how to apply these scientific principles to your own health care. A Physician enjoys no greater advantage than his or her patient, succumbing to the ravages of disease at an average age of 57. Cardiovascular-Renal Disease takes more than a million lives each year, the majority long before retirement age. As the Medical Director of The Golden Years Society, Dr. McDaniel shares the story of his family - six senior citizens from ages 70 - 93. These siblings enjoy the cumulative advantages of Disease Reprieve regimen, without assisted living, wheel chairs or canes. They have a cumulative 126 years of Social Security benefits, a result of living longer than the Actuaries predicted. Dr. McDaniel is 85, conducts a full medical practice, has published two books, and frequently lectures to civic organizations and medical groups. The Government estimates the cost of Cardiovascular Disease in 1999 to be in excess of 260 billion dollars. The Golden Years Society watched with interest a press conference in early 1997, announcing FDA approval of a drug they called 'the first new approach to the treatment of heart failure approved by the FDA in 14 years'! One Physician attending this press conference stated with great sincerity that heart failure is a life threatening condition whose incidence in the U. S. has been rising. What an understatement. Every 33 seconds an American dies of Cardiovascular Disease, more than 950,000 deaths last year. In contrast, cancer deaths totaled approximately 537,000 and AIDS about 42,000. These rather dry statistics are translated into death and disability for us and/or our loved ones. No family is immune from the risk of Cardiovascular-Renal Disease. The Golden Years Society has been successfully treating patients during the time the pharmaceutical companies, and the FDA were studying 'potential therapies'. Why are our patients able to resume active lifestyles free of many or most of their initial complaints? Because the Disease Reprieve regimen teaches patients the CAUSE of Cardiovascular Disease. Our patients understand the importance of food and drink in PREVENTING and reversing Cardiovascular Disease. You will learn that the single greatest medical device of the 20th Century is the Reverse Osmosis water unit. No more Arrhythmia, generally excused away by such wandering generalities as 'we see these PVC's in people your age'. No competent Engineer would characterize a fuel pump malfunction so nonchalantly. Physicians attending our Disease Reprieve seminars inevitably confide that their practice is suffering due to the onslaught of Managed Care rules and regulations, the endless stream of paperwork from Medicare/Medicaid and private insurance companies, and the high cost of staffing requirements to complete all that paperwork. We have Golden Years franchises in several locations throughout the country. As the prototype for these franchises, our office is equipped with digital cameras, computers with graphics programs, and scanners, all designed to take advantage of new technology.
