myLot Discussions on L-Methionine| Homocysteine and Heart Disease | | My step brother is in the hospital. Apparently he had multiple strokes. His heart is pumping at 45% and he has clots in his brain. They called in a cardiologist and neurologist and they say he has Homocysteinemia. From what I've read,it is an amino acid found in blood. It forms when the body breaks down protein. Normally, several enzymes either turn homocysteine back into methionine (another amino acid), which the body uses to build its own proteins, or they break it down for excretion in the urine. Folic Acid, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 are necessary for metabolism of methionine. A number of genes influence how the body uses folate, vitamins B6 and B12, and can predispose to a person to folate deficiency, leading to high levels of homocysteine.What causes damage to body tissues is not clear. It is possible that it damages the delicate cells that line arteries, eventually causing clogged arteries, or it may make blood clot more easily. Both of these can lead to heart attack, stroke and peripheral vascular disease.One means of prevention may be a diet high in folic acid, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12. Folate is found in a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables such as... | |
| | B12 Injections for Weight Managment | | B12 has become the new craze in weight managment. Men and women who get bariatric surgery are also getting B12 injections weekly and reporting inches lost. B12 is a vitamin that is needed for your body's function, particularly to make red blood cells and keep the nervous system working properly. It is also benefical to anemics in the absorption of iron. But weight loss?Weight loss clinics around the U.S. are touting benefits of B12 injections as a weight loss miracle. However, some doctors are calling this "miracle" a placebo effect. B12 acts as a stimulant and ebergizes the body. After an injection "anti stress" elements are transmitted to the body making B12 an effective cure for chronic fatigue. It's the body's response to the B12 that actually helps with the weight los, the need to "move". B12 alone without the excercise will not help with shedding the pounds.Recently a new cocktail has been created balled B12 with Lipotropics. this cocktail bontains B12 with co-enzymes; methionine, Inositol, and Choline; that are supposed to be required for proper metabolism of fats and have the ability to remove fat from the liver. The help with transforming carbohydrates into... | |
| | Pet Food Industry Dirty Secrets. Are you still paying for pet’s food? | | -Iams/Eukanuba canned foods are not made by The Iams Company at all. In fact, in 2003 Iams signed an exclusive 10-year contract for the production of 100% of its canned foods by Menu.-Another unpleasant practice exposed by last recall is pet food testing on live animals. Menu's own lab animals, who were deliberately fed the tainted food, were the first known victims. Tests began on February 27 (already a week after the first reports); animals started to die painfully from kidney failure a few days later.HISTORY of pet food recalls:-In 1995, Nature’s Recipe recalled almost a million pounds of dry dog and cat food The problem was a fungus that produced vomitoxin contaminating the wheat. -In 1999, Doane Pet Care recalled more than a million bags of corn-based dry dog food contaminated with aflatoxin. This time, the toxin killed 25 dogs. -In 2000, Iams recalled 248,000 pounds of dry dog food distributed in 7 states due to excess DL-Methionine Amino Acid, a urinary acidifier. -In 2003, a recall was made by Petcurean “Go! Natural” pet food due to circumstantial association with some dogs suffering from liver disease; no cause was ever found. -In late... | |
| | Benefits Of Being A Vegetarian | | well i saw many discussion ragarding vegiterian and non vegiterian food....i saw many opnions that vegiterian doesn't have much strength like non-veg person,vegiterian person can't get muscular body etc.... i think this article will help for veggies to get good health and non-veggies to think over their diet::
Other benefits that come along with this package include being friendlier to the environment, kinder to animals, increasing the chance of feeding starving populations, saving what's left of the rain forest and reducing the national medical-care cost. With all this in mind, how could you not even take it into consideration?
Let me begin by distinguishing between the different types of vegetarians. There are vegans (also known as strict vegetarians) who consume no animal products or animal byproducts whatsoever, lacto-ovo vegetarians who consume milk and eggs but no meat and pesco-vegetarians who consume fish as well as dairy. There are a few other subcategories, but for the purpose of this article, I will limit to just these three.
I know the first question that probably comes to mind is, "How will I get enough protein?" According to the PDCAAS (Protein... | |

| | plant design | | Dear Sirs,
We are going to erect a plant for producing DL-methionine having 20000 ton annual capacity.We have ability of constructing required equipment designed by an expert compony.This plant need three lines as below:
1.methionine line starting from propylene
2.methyl mercaptan line starting from methanol and SH2
3.hydrogen cyanide line starting from hydrogen sulfide and methane
You are pleased to inform us your ability and interest in cooperating in this project.
Best Regards,
