Hematology - The Bloodline:...

Mike Crawford

Blood is one of the most vital components of the human body, performing essential functions that sustain life. It serves as the primary transport system, delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues while removing waste products. Beyond its role in circulation, blood is integral to immunity, clotting, and maintaining homeostasis. Understanding its significance is crucial not only for medical professionals but for anyone interested in maintaining good health. 
One of the most fundamental roles of blood is oxygen transportation. Red blood cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that binds to oxygen in the lungs and carries it to cells throughout the body. Without this continuous supply of oxygen, tissues would quickly deteriorate, leading to organ failure and death. At the same time, blood carries carbon dioxide, a waste product of cellular metabolism, back to the lungs, where it is expelled from the body. This exchange ensures that cells function efficiently and that the body's pH levels remain balanced. 
Beyond oxygen transport, blood is responsible for distributing nutrients absorbed from the digestive system. Glucose, amino acids, lipids, and vitamins travel through the bloodstream to nourish organs and fuel metabolic processes. Additionally, blood removes waste products such as urea and lactic acid, transporting them to the kidneys and liver for detoxification and elimination. This regulatory role ensures that harmful substances do not accumulate to dangerous levels.

Multiverse The: Time and...

Martin K. Ettington

The subjects of time and dimensional travel really fascinate me. I went to Engineering School and took advanced courses in physics and mathematics so I have a pretty good understanding of science’s view of our Universe.I’ve also been fortunate to have learned and practiced techniques to become more spiritually and psychically developed. One of the things this led to were my numerous experiences with premonitions and prophecy which I’ve written about.My research also led me to write several books about stories of real time travel and dimensional shifting experiences.This book is a series and questions and answers to review and discuss what I’ve learned about time and dimensions which I hope will shed some light on the mysteries of these strange phenomena.The world is much more mysterious than we ever thought possible and our speculation is part of our developing an understanding of our universe.
