- People severely vitamin D deficient were 60% more likely to experience substantial general cognitive decline, 31% more likely to experience cognitive problems.
- Dementia, such as Alzheimer's, is a brain-wasting condition that affects around 35 million people worldwide -- Vitamin D may help prevent the degeneration of brain tissue by having a role in formation of nervous tissue,
maintaining levels of calcium in the body, or clearing of beta-amyloid, the substance that forms the brain plaques that are associated with Alzheimer's disease.

Macromineral Deficiencies and Acid-Base Disorder

- 36% didn't completely agree that it was their responsibility to report these colleagues in every case.

- Each 10 mg/dL increase in HDL levels reduced cancer risk by 36%.
- The risk of developing any type of cancer during follow-up decreased as a person's baseline HDL cholesterol levels rose.
- "Our most effective HDL-raising drug that's currently available is niacin," -- Niacin is a B-vitamin, but given in mega-doses. People can increase their HDL levels by exercising, eating well, maintaining a healthy weight, drinking moderately, keeping their weight under control, and not smoking.

- Participants with the highest-glycemic index diets were 78% more likely to have pancreatic cancer.
- It is possible that such diets could contribute to pancreatic risk, such foods influence the body's secretion of the blood-sugar-regulating hormone insulin -- And insulin encourages the growth and division of cells in the pancreas -- raising the possibility that the hormone could encourage the growth and spread of pancreatic cancer cells.

Metabolic syndrome refers to a collection of risk factors for diabetes, heart disease and stroke -- including abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, low levels of "good" HDL cholesterol and high triglycerides. -- The syndrome is typically diagnosed when a person has 3 or more of those conditions -- found that it can double the risk of heart attack and stroke.

- For the transportation industry the work itself remained linked to an increased risk of metabolic syndrome.
- The finding is in line with past studies, higher rates of heart disease and stroke among transportation workers.
- Factors such as irregular work schedules, poorer sleep habits, job stress -- might explain the link between transportation work and metabolic syndrome.

Metabolic syndrome overall U.S. risk 22%; Writers, artists, entertainers, scientists, engineers 8-9%; doctors, health professionals 12%; Transportation industry, construction 25%; Farm industry, food service 30%.

Psychological and Physical Torture: Bush Administration, Gitmo, Stress, Sleep Deprivation, Liquid Diet, Acidic Blood pH, Macromineral Deficiencies, and Physical Pain
“Other memos allowed the use of such tactics as keeping a detainee naked and in some cases in a diaper, and putting detainees on a liquid diet…"Detainees subject to sleep deprivation who are also subject to nudity as a separate interrogation technique will at times be nude and wearing a diaper,"”

- High levels of stress, sleep deprivation, and a liquid diet and diarrhea leads to acid-base imbalance and acidic blood pH, which leads to macromineral deficiencies.
- Macromineral deficiencies such as potassium, magnesium, and calcium can cause serious disorders such as physical symptoms muscle pain, muscle cramps, muscle spasms, tremors, and complications of the heart and abnormal rhythms (arrhythmias), cardiac arrest or heart failure, and cancer.

- Macrominerals and potassium are very important as electrolytes and the body uses electrolytes to maintain acid-base balance, fluid balance (homeostasis), and for normal neurological, myocardial, nerve, and muscle function.
- High levels of stress and sleep deprivation leads to acid-base imbalance and acidic blood pH. The body uses a buffering system and macrominerals like calcium from bone to regulate the imbalance and this leads to macromineral deficiencies, and osteoporosis.
- Macromineral deficiencies such as potassium, magnesium, and calcium can cause serious disorders such as physical symptoms muscle pain, muscle cramps, muscle spasms, tremors, and complications of the heart and abnormal rhythms (arrhythmias), cardiac arrest or heart failure, and cancer.

Rising carbon levels caused by the burning of fossil fuels had dramatically increased the acidity of seawater, threatening the oceans' ecosystems. coral, shell fish and star fish are likely to suffer because higher levels of acidity will make it harder for them to form shells and skeletons. The report predicts that some types of plankton, a major food source for marine life, may be unable to make their calcium carbonate shells Those changes could also contribute directly to global warming if the carbon-saturated oceans reach a point when they can no longer soak up any further emissions from the atmosphere.

Credibility: Enemy of the State Series - (video)

In cases of criminal psychological harassment or psychological warfare the first priority is to destroy the credibility of the victim to prevent exposure or to prevent prosecution.

Workplace psychological harassment and criminal psychological harassment networks to eliminate a person's means of subsistence; As long as homelessness is being used as a weapon and has a hidden use or a hidden incentive for its existence our society’s goal of eliminating homelessness will remain unachievable.

A. The Mob "ice pick" is a stealth assassination weapon that you do not see coming.

- High levels of sleep deprivation; increased cortisol, acid-base imbalance and acidic blood pH, no exercise, and no DNA, body, and brain repair.
- High levels of stress; criminal psychological harassment, participants use provocation and threats to increased adrenaline and cortisol, which are linked to more physical damage to the body, heart, and brain.

This leads to poor health, diabetes, acid-base imbalance or acidic blood pH, heart disease, and stroke aka the Mob "ice pick".

Organized crime uses workplace psychological harassment, criminal psychological harassment networks, and technology to eliminate the means of subsistence of a victim, torture them, push them into homelessness or crime in attempts to subjugate them.

Q. Does the fact that psychiatry and law enforcement deny that these exist seem to increase the link between them?

- the use of psychiatry to attack the psychological integrity or crebility of victims.
- the use of homelessness as a weapon.

- Ranting and making fun of different issues can help you brainstorming these issues by leading you to links or other points of view that you may not have thought of or realized.
