Sinopsis

Vitamin D Absorption explores the crucial role of Vitamin D in overall health, highlighting how sunlight, diet, and supplements influence its levels. The book addresses the pervasive issue of Vitamin D deficiency despite readily available sources. It investigates the physiological processes of absorption, metabolism, and utilization, emphasizing that a nuanced understanding is key to preventing deficiency. A surprising fact is that factors like skin pigmentation and latitude significantly impact Vitamin D synthesis from sunlight, while bioavailability varies among dietary sources. The book progresses from the fundamentals of Vitamin D, including its chemical forms and roles in bone health and immune function, to exploring sources like sunlight, diet, and supplements. It examines factors leading to deficiency, such as insufficient intake and malabsorption. Supported by scientific literature and epidemiological studies, the book adopts a scientific yet accessible tone, empowering readers to make informed decisions about their health. It also addresses controversies surrounding optimal serum levels and supplementation strategies.

The UFO Experience - Evidence...

J. Allen Hynek, Paul Hynek

The case against UFOs and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) has not been put to rest. Although UFOs "officially" did not exist for decades according to the government, reports of sightings continue to be made, and the latest releases from the government and related hearings have surprised the world. While the scientific community has put UFOs out to pasture, the evidence used to dismiss them is rare and unscientific. 
 
 
  
Dr. Hynek, a scientist himself, and the only government-paid ufologist in history, looks at the decisions made by officialdom in the early days of ufology and how these decisions have held us back—to the point that we are still naively talking about UFOs as we were in the 1950s. Has seventy years of research made no difference at all in our understanding? 
 
 
  
Dr. Hynek proves that there is a conspiracy afoot to hide the facts and that there are many cases that still need to be explained by mainstream science—not dismissed with facile jokes and stupid logic. Citing specific cases, Hynek challenges those in the ivory tower by raising questions that have still not been answered and refuting mainstream arguments that have yet to be proven.

Nowhere Left to Go - How Climate...

Benjamin von Brackel

Harrowing journeys of animals and plants—fleeing skyrocketing temperatures—reported from the frontlines of the greatest migration of species since the Ice Age. 
 
 
 
As humans accelerate global warming while laying waste to the environment, animals and plants must flee to the margins: on scattered nature reserves, between major highways, or among urban sprawl. And when even these places become too hot and inhospitable, wildlife is left with only one path to survival: an often-formidable journey toward the poles as they race to find a new home in a warming world. Tropical zones lose their inhabitants, beavers settle in Alaska, and gigantic shoals of fish disappear—just to reappear along foreign coastlines. 
 
 
 
Award-winning environmental journalist Benjamin von Brackel traces these awe-inspiring journeys and celebrates the remarkable resilience of species around the world. But the lengths these plants and animals must go to avoid extinction are as alarming as they are inspirational: Sea animals—like fish—move on average forty-five miles a decade to cooler regions, while land animals—like beavers and butterflies—move eleven miles. As even the poles of the Earth heat up, we're left with a stark and irreversible choice: Halt the climate emergency now, or face a massive die-off of species, who are increasingly left with nowhere else to go.

Gut Renovation - Unlock the...

Dr Roshini Raj

Combining the latest developments and research discoveries, board-certified gastroenterologist and medical host on CNN and Fox News, Dr. Roshini Raj shows the ways in which the microbiome impacts overall well-being, and helps readers reset their biological clocks by improving their gut health.

With one in four Americans suffering from digestive health issues every day, gut health has become an increasingly important part of wellness. With the human body, so many issues can be improved upon, or cured, by balancing the microbiome. But the microbiome—a community of bacteria, viruses, and yeasts that dwell in the body—has long been something that the average person can find baffling—and maybe a little bit gross.
By offering simple and straightforward answers to questions like what one should be eating, what probiotics are, which vitamins and medicines really work, Dr. Raj demystifies the gut. She uses the idea of a home renovation to show how different organs and parts of the body can be “renovated” in order to optimize the microbiome. After all, balancing one’s microbiome improves digestive health, brain function, emotional stability, the body’s response to inflammation, immunity, and lessens premature aging.
Melding the latest developments and discoveries in microbiome research, along with Dr. Raj’s practical tips developed from her years of clinical experience, Gut Renovation shows readers how to turn back the biological clock and revamp the way they live forever.
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
