WHAT IS A HOAX E-MAIL

    A hoaxed/spoofed email is when the sender purposely alters parts of the email to masquerade as though it was authored by someone else. Commonly, the sender’s name/address and the body of the message are formatted to appear from a legitimate source, as though the email came from a bank or a newspaper or legitimate company on the Web. Sometimes, the spoofer will make the email appear to come from a private citizen somewhere. In more benign cases of email hoaxes, these spoofed messages are used to spread urban myths and preposterous stories (e.g. Mel Gibson was horrifically burned as a teenager). In other more malevolent cases, the spoofed email is part of a phishing (con man) attack. In other cases, a spoofed email is used to dishonestly market an online service or sell you a bogus product like scareware. Why Would Someone Fraudulently 'Spoof' an Email? Purpose 1: the email spoofer is trying to “phish” your passwords and login name...

NOW STAY WRINKLE FREE

      For the first time, scientists have identified the activity of a metabolic enzyme found in the batteries of human skin cells declines with age, an advance that may lead to powerful anti-aging treatments.  A Newcastle University study, published online in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, has found that the activity of mitochondrial complex II significantly decreases in older skin.  This discovery brings experts a step closer to developing powerful anti-aging treatments and cosmetic products which may be tailored to counteract the decline in the enzyme's  activity levels, researchers said. The findings may also lead to a greater understanding of how other organs in the body age, which could pave the way for drug developments in a number of age-related diseases, including cancer.  As our bodies age, we see that the batteries in our cells run down, known as decreased bio-energy, and harmful free radicals increase," ...

The pomegranate

    The pomegranate is a fruit-bearing deciduous shrub in the family Lythraceae, subfamily Punicoideae, that grows between 5 and 10 m tall.   Pomegranates are rich in antioxidants and flavonoids, both of which are known to prevent free radicals from damaging your cells. In some studies, pomegranates show potential to be effective in preventing prostate, breast, lung, and colon cancers.   Pomegranates contain 14g of sugar per 100g, but don't let that put you off too much. 100g of pomegranates also contains 7g of fibre, 3g of protein, and 30 per cent of the recommended daily amount of vitamin C. Just don't eat too much.   Pomegranate seeds and juice are both sweet and tart in flavor. Like citrus fruit, pomegranates taste very refreshing and can be bold in flavor. Regular consumption of pomegranate helps in improving gut health, digestion, and keep bowel diseases at bay. Pomegranate   are rich in antioxidants, polyphenols and conjugated linolenic ...

THYROID GLAND

  The thyroid is a dual lobed gland located at the front of the neck, just beneath the larynx (voice box). One lobe of the thyroid is located on each side of the trachea (windpipe). The two lobes of the thyroid gland are connected by a narrow strip of tissue known as the isthmus. As a component of the endocrine system, the thyroid secretes hormones that control important functions including metabolism, growth, heart rate, and body temperature. Found within thyroid tissue are structures known as parathyroid glands. These tiny glands secrete parathyroid hormone, which regulates calcium levels in the blood. Thyroid Structure The thyroid is highly vascular, meaning that it has a wealth of blood vessels.javascript:void(0); It is composed of follicles that absorb iodine, which is needed to produce thyroid hormones. These follicles store iodine and other substances necessary for hormone production. Surrounding the follicles are folliclar cells. These cells prod...

  "AN  APPLE   A  DAY   KEEPS  DOCTOR  AWAY"  The apple tree (Malus pumila, commonly and erroneously called Malus domestica) is a deciduous tree in the rose family best known for its sweet, pomaceous fruit, the apple. It is cultivated worldwide as a fruit tree, and is the most widely grown species in the genus Malus. The tree originated in Central Asia, where its wild ancestor, Malus sieversii, is still found today.

Apples have religious and mythological significance in many cultures, including Norse, Greek and European Christian traditions. Apples are one of the most commonly consumed fruit types, likely due to their convenience, flavor, variety, and availability. There are thousands of known apple varieties in the world, however, in the United States about twenty or so are commercially ...
