Trace elementS Their relation with Homeopathy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Trace element
In analytical chemistry, a trace element is an element in a sample that has an average concentration of less than 100 parts per million measured in atomic count or less than 100 micrograms per gram.
In biochemistry, a trace element is a dietary mineral that is needed in very minute quantities for the proper growth, development, and physiology of the organism.[1]
In geochemistry, a trace element is a chemical element whose concentration is less than 1000 ppm or 0.1% of a rock's composition. The term is used mainly in igneous petrology. Trace elements will either prefer liquid or solid phase. If compatible with a mineral, it will prefer a solid phase (e.g., Ni compatible with Olivine). If it is incompatible with an element it will prefer a liquid phase. The measurement of this ratio is known as the partition coefficient. Trace elements can be substituted for network-forming cations in mineral structures. Minerals do not have to contain trace elements, i.e., they do not have to appear in the mineral's chemical formula.

Trace element
n.
1. A chemical element required in minute quantities by an organism to maintain proper physical functioning.
2. A minute quantity or amount: "The trace elements of belief vanish when it becomes apparent that the . . . officer . . . never has suffered the indignity of combat" (Lewis H. Lapham).

Others
This list has no precise inclusion criteria as described in the Manual of Style for standalone lists. Please help by adding inclusion criteria. (December 2012)

5-HTP - higher bioavailable form of tryptophan, precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin, promotes relaxed poise and sound sleep.
Alpha-GPC (L-alpha glycerylphosphorylcholine, Choline alfoscerate) - most effective choline precursor, readily crosses the blood–brain barrier.
Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) - Amino acid. Transports fatty acids through cellular membranes and cytosol into cells' mitochondria, where the fats undergo oxidation to produce ATP, the universal energy molecule. Synergistic with lipoic acid. Precursor of acetylcholine (donating the acetyl portion). Inhibits lipofuscin formation.
CDP-Choline (Cytidine Diphosphate Choline) - choline precursor, a more economical alternative to Alpha GPC.
Chondroitin sulfate
Coenzyme q-10- increases oxygen transport through the mitocondria of the cells. Appears to slow age-related dementia.
Creatine - increases brain energy levels via ATP production.
DMAE - approved treatment for ADD/ADHD, precursor of acetylcholine, cholinergic agent, removes lipofuscin from the brain, anti-depressant
Ephedrine
Flavonoid - thought to have antioxidant effects, but recent studies have contradicted this. [1]
Epicatechin
Hesperidin
Naringin
Oligomeric proanthocyanidins
Quercetin
Rutin
Tangeritin
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)
Garum armoricum extract - Adaptogen.
Glucosamine - commonly used for the treatment of osteoarthritis, but evidence is conflicting and there it is not approved by the FDA for use in humans.
Glycyrrhizic Acid
Huperzine A - potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitor derived from Chinese club-moss.
Idebenone - stimulates nerve growth, and has same effects as Coenzyme q-10 without its harmful side-effects.
Inositol
Lecithin - precursor of acetylcholine.
Lipoic acid - synergistic with Acetyl-L-carnitine.
Phenibut
Pregnenolone
Phosphatidylserine
Resveratrol
Theanine - Amino acid. Found in tea. Increases serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain. Increases alpha-wave based alert relaxation. [2]
Theophylline
Vinpocetine - micro-circulation enhancer, improves oxygen supply to brain cells.
Yeast, nutritional

- Article by Dr Sunitha Devi Vannemreddy M.D(Hom)  drsunithavannemreddy@gmail.com Urethra is the opening that allows the urine to leave the bladder. Urethra has a sphincter mechanism that holds urine inside the bladder. When urine fills in the bladder, there is both voluntary and involuntary control to open the urethra to allow the urine to come out. In men, it is thin tube like structure that starts from lower opening of the bladder, traverses entire length of penis. In women, it is a short opening coming off lower opening of bladder and between 2.5 to 4 cms length. You might also interested: . Cases   . children   . Clinical   . Drdevendra .
