Former BP geologist: peak oil is here and it will 'break economies' | Nafeez Ahmed
Industry expert warns of grim future of 'recession' driven 'resource wars' at University College London lectureA former British Petroleum (BP) geologist has warned that the age of cheap oil is long gone, bringing with it the danger of "continuous recession" and increased risk of conflict and hunger. At a lecture on 'Geohazards' earlier this month as part of the postgraduate Natural Hazards for Insurers course at University College London (UCL), Dr. Richard G. Miller, who worked for BP from 1985 before retiring in 2008, said that official data from the International Energy Agency (IEA), US Energy Information Administration ...

The leak channel NALCN controls tonic firing and glycolytic sensitivity of substantia nigra pars reticulata neurons
Certain neuron types fire spontaneously at high rates, an ability that is crucial for their function in brain circuits. The spontaneously active GABAergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr), a major output of the basal ganglia, provide tonic inhibition of downstream brain areas. A depolarizing 'leak' current supports this firing pattern, but its molecular basis remains poorly understood. To understand how SNr neurons maintain tonic activity, we used single-cell RNA sequencing to determine the transcriptome of individual mouse SNr neurons. We discovered that SNr neurons express the sodium leak channel, NA...

Alzheimer’s Treatment Success Using Coconut Oil?
Alzheimer’s treatment has proven to be a spectacular failure, with few sufferers improving with any degree of significance. However, there is one effective treatment that has received almost no attention by the media and almost no doctors are using it despite the fact that it’s easy, cheap, and readily available.
If there were an effective treatment for Alzheimer’s disease, wouldn’t you want your doctor to tell you about it Fortunately, you don’t have to wait for your doctor to tell you about it, you can simply try it out and see if it helps.
What is this treatment? Surprisingly, it’s a relatively simple and s...

Study: Fish Oil Doesn ’ t Seem To Prevent Heart Problems
This study is consistent with earlier trials.
The US Food and Drug Administration approved the fish oil-based drug Vascepa for heart attack and stroke prevention in 2019.
Nissen hopes the FDA will take a look at these studies and reconsider that decision.
“But it’s hard to get something undone once the genie gets out of the bottle,” he said.
An editorial in the journal that accompanies the study written by Dr. Gregory Curfman, assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, also suggested the FDA should require a postmarketing clinical trial of a high-dose of fish oil, such as Vascepa, vs. corn...

Another Disappointing Study For Fish Oil Supplements
Another large study has failed to find any benefits for fish oil supplements. The Italian Risk and Prevention Study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, enrolled 12,513 people who had not had a myocardial infarction but had evidence of atherosclerosis or had multiple cardiovascular risk factors. The patients were randomized to either a fish oil supplement (1 gram daily of n-3 fatty acids) or placebo. After 5 years of followup, the primary endpoint– the time to death from cardiovascular causes or admission to the hospital for cardiovascular causes– had occurred in 11.7% of the fish oil More…

Olive Oil: Brain Food
Many people find it hard to believe that I’m such a vocal endorser, and liberal user, of olive oil. At almost any meal, I’ve been known to drizzle a bit of extra olive oil on top of my food. To those who aren’t familiar with it, olive oil is just a source of hidden calories. However, olive oil is actually one of the foods that has the greatest potential to keep us healthy. Consider that it’s a staple of the both the Grain Brain and highly-praised Mediterranean diet!

Imminent peak oil could burst US, global economic bubble - study | Nafeez Ahmed
Major industrial sectors are at risk without a swift transition to a more resilient, post-carbon economyA new multi-disciplinary study led by the University of Maryland calls for immediate action by government, private and commercial sectors to reduce vulnerability to the imminent threat of global peak oil, which could put the entire US economy and other major industrial economies at risk.The peer-reviewed study contradicts the recent claims within the oil industry that peak oil has been indefinitely offset by shale gas and other unconventional oil and gas resources. A report by the World Energy Council (WEC) last month, f...

Oil price volatility undermines economic growth, says Sir David King
Report co-authored by the former government chief scientific adviser says fossil fuels damage more than the environmentGovernments need to deter oil speculators, set aside reserves of crude oil and take steps urgently to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels in order to escape price volatility that undermines stable economic growth, according to a report co-authored by one of Britain's top scientists.The exploitation of shale oil and gas may mitigate damaging price fluctuations in future but it will be terrible news for the environment and is not a longer term solution to the world's energy needs, said the report co-writ...
