"The following table is a handy guide to refer to: WHAT'S WHAT DM WEIGHTS AND MEASURES Metric Measure 1 kilogram equals 1,000 grams 1 gram equals 1,000 milligrams 1 milligram equals 1/1,000th part of a gram 1 microgram equals 1/1,000th part of a milligram 1 gamma equals 1 microgram Avoirdupois Weight 16 ounces equal 1 pound 7,000 grains equal 1 pound 453.6 grams equal 1 pound 1 ounce av. equals 437.5 grains 1 ounce av. equals 28.35 grams Conversion Factors 1 gram equals 15.4 grains 1 grain equals 0.085 grams (85 miUigrams) 1 ounce apothecary equals 31." - Earl Mindell, Earl Mindell's Vitamin Bible for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"Sustaining diversity also does not mean preserving inequality, for equality does not reside in uniformity but in the recognition of the equal value and dignity of all peoples and cultures. Creating a diverse yet equitable and intercommunicating world calls for more than just paying lip service to equality and just tolerating each other's differences. Letting others be what they want as long as they stay in their corner of the world and letting them do what they want "as long as they don't do it in my backyard" are well meaning but inadequate attitudes." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.)

"Household Measure 1 teaspoon equals 4 cc. equals 1 fluid dram 1 tablespoon equals 15 cc. equals A fluid ounce A pint equals 240 cc. equals 8 fluid ounces Abbreviations AMDR Adult Minimum Daily Requirement USPUnit United States Pharmacopeia IU International Unit MDR Minimum Daily Requirement mg. milligram meg. microgram ggram grgrain 169. Breaking the RDA Code Many people are bewildered by the variances between vitamin standards listed as RDA, U.S. RDA, RDI, and DV. It becomes much less confusing when you understand that they are not the same thing." - Earl Mindell, Earl Mindell's Vitamin Bible for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"A synergy is simply a combination of two things that together, equal more than the sum of the individual parts. In straightforward mathematics, 1 + 1 = 2 (no synergy here), but in the chemical world, 1 + 1 can equal a lot more than 2 due to the interactive—synergistic—effect chemicals can have on one another. For example, on a scale of 1 to 10, Toxin A may be considered a 2 (low) while Toxin B is a 3, but together in the body they may cause a powerful, level 9 (high) effect. Synergies bring the number of potential chemical permutations to a nearly infinite amount." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.)

"Principal forms in the body: phylloquinone (vitamin Kj) and menaquinone (vitamin K2) Summary for Fluids and Electrolyte Balance Water intake must equal water output. The kidneys regulate blood pressure and blood volume. Electrolytes are mineral ions that help regulate fluid balance. Electrolytes are found in the plasma, in interstitial fluids, and inside the cells. Electrolyte solutions are neutral with equal positive and negative charges. Blood acidity is controlled by blood buffers, the kidneys, and the lungs." - Dr. Steve Blake, Vitamins and Minerals Demystified (Get the book.) "Y Summary for Fluids and Electrolyte Balance Water intake must equal water output. The kidneys regulate blood pressure and blood volume. Electrolytes are mineral ions that help regulate fluid balance. Electrolytes are found in the plasma, in interstitial fluids, and inside the cells. Electrolyte solutions are neutral with equal positive and negative charges. Blood acidity is controlled by blood buffers, the kidneys, and the lungs. Y ELECTROLYTE IMBALANCE Sometimes, despite the excellent systems used to control electrolyte balance, the body's mineral and fluid balances do get disrupted." - Dr. Steve Blake, Vitamins and Minerals Demystified (Get the book.)

"The market myth is comforting for the rich, but it disregards the fact that the free market distributes benefits only under conditions of near-perfect competition, where the playing field is level and the players have a more or less equal number of chips. In the real world, the playing field is not level and the distribution of wealth is strongly skewed. Not surprisingly, in today's world the poorest 40 percent is left with 3 percent of the global wealth and the wealth of a few hundred billionaires equals the annual income of three billion of the world's poor people. 5." - Ervin Laszlo, Quantum Shift in the Global Brain: How the New Scientific Reality Can Change Us and Our World (Get the book.)

"Over time (and as the experimenter constantly replenishes the food sources so that they remain exactly equal), the primary attention of the ants may switch from one source to the other. Why should they not exploit the two equally, and what causes them to switch their attention? Krrman notes that ants individually recruit other ants to food sources; there is no central direction for the nest as a whole. Recruitment is done by contact and following (tandem recruitment) or by laying a chemical trail (pheromone recruitment)." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"One cup of stringbean skin tea is equal to at least one unit of insulin.168 At the Tree of Life we juice the whole stringbean in the juice aspect of the program. A product called Beanpod Tea is an all-natural, mild, and pleasant tasting tea that is very beneficial for diabetics. This tea is a natural detox tea, detoxifying the pancreas and related organs. Beanpod Tea is composed of the pods of kidney, white, navy, great northern, and baby lima beans. Beanpod Tea contains the amino acids tyrosine, tryptophan, and arginine, plus the B vitamin choline and the enzyme betaine." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)

"The laws are equal, but their use in practice is specific and different. The treatments should be directed, at first, to using Natura Medicatrix and natural laws before using any artificial means. 17. I've already achieved improvements and stability in my vision. Will I be addicted to another therapeutic treatment? How do you check for muscular asymmetry? I completely understand the concept of doing the exercises and trust in the technique." - David De Angelis, The Secret of Perfect Vision: How You Can Prevent and Reverse Nearsightedness (Get the book.) "You are quite lucky since your myopia is almost equal in both your eyes. a. You can find the glasses you need at an optician's, drug store, or in most large stores. b. and c. As for dioptric power, you should be able to train with reading a book or newspaper, creating a state of slight fogging. Try to create it without lenses, while reading. Try to move the book away from your eyes until you create this slight fogging. Then, carry out the CRB movements, and, in the end, blink, to relax your eyes." - David De Angelis, The Secret of Perfect Vision: How You Can Prevent and Reverse Nearsightedness (Get the book.)

"More Oxygen May equal More Championships There is a speculation about a possible link between maximized oxygen utilization and superior athleticism. Of course, that prompts the question: what happens to people with less oxygen utilization, and why do people vary so much in this regard? Researchers from Norway teamed up with an American university to answer those questions. They suspected that the energy production of cellular mitochondria might be a factor in physical prowess. They examined the proteins in mitochondria involved in skeletal muscle performance." - Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D., The Sinatra Solution Metabolic Cardiology (Get the book.) "But when you combine the right nutrients together to work synergisti-cally the advanced math results can be exponential: one plus one can equal five or even ten! You don't merely add up the benefits of each nutrient in sequential fashion. Instead, these synergistic effects mean that an explosive combination of nutrients can have an exciting, positive impact on one's well-being, and even on life itself." - Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D., The Sinatra Solution Metabolic Cardiology (Get the book.)

"Even though it's on the other side of the room and no one has physically touched it, it's still responding to the first guitar, because they're equal in their ability to share a particular kind of energy. In this case, the energy is in the form of a wave traveling through space and across the room. And this is the same way we experience belief in our lives. Rather than two guitars in a room tuned to match one another, we're beings of energy with the capacity to tune our bodies and share particular kinds of energy." - Gregg Braden, The Spontaneous Healing of Belief: Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits (Get the book.)

"Although EPA appears to be more effective at lowering triglycerides, I prefer omega-3 supplements with equal or greater concentrations of DHA relative to EPA. Studies that show the benefits of omega-3 fatty acid supplementation typically start with about 2,000 to 3,000 milligrams of combined DHA and EPA per day. You can supplement omega-3 fats with fish oils, but fish liver oils also contain significant amounts of vitamin A. Although vitamin A is important, in industrialized societies where people typically have access to good foods, vitamin A is not a limiting nutrient in diets." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.) "Finally, restoring a healthy ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fat (less than or equal to 5:1) reduces inflammation and its damage to blood vessels. Moving Out of the Metabolic Syndrome Exercise, vitamin D supplementation, and a good diet can keep you from becoming obese, no matter what your gene pool. Exercise makes vitamin D work for you via metabolism changes and increased sun exposure; it directs the flow of nutrients into bone and muscle rather than fat (see chapter 8)." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.)

"The system is based upon the training of extrinsic ocular muscles, which are of the striated type, and therefore their physiological structure is equal to that of any other striated muscle in our body (like biceps or triceps). Also the ciliary muscle (smooth type, involuntary) could be efficiently trained with the visual biofeedback technique of the Accommotrac Vision Trainer. This is accomplished by wearing special training lenses and using the well-known concept of blur-driven accommodation. You can find such lenses easily at low cost, and they need be worn only during visual training work." - David De Angelis, The Secret of Perfect Vision: How You Can Prevent and Reverse Nearsightedness (Get the book.)

"It is equal to flax seed as a source of short-chain omega-3 fatty acids. Unfortunately, most hemp seeds are irradiated upon import; however, the Tree of Life is able to supply truly live, organic hemp seeds (see the Resources directory), which we call hemp nuts. Hemp seed is great with granola, sprinkled on salads, and is especially tasty in tomato-based sauces. Hemp seed is a delicious substitute for other nuts and seeds in most any recipe. OLIVES The healthiest olives are those that are water-cured or cured in Celtic sea salt." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.) "According to the CDC, about 73 percent of adults with diabetes have blood pressure greater than or equal to 130/80 mm Hg or use prescription medications for hypertension. DENTAL DISEASE Periodontal (gum) disease is more common among people with diabetes. Among young adults, those with diabetes have about twice the risk of those without diabetes. Almost one-third of people with diabetes have severe periodontal diseases with loss of attachment of the gums to the teeth measuring 5 millimeters or more. Improving your dental health can also help with glycemic control." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.) "Some 655,000 people are newly diagnosed each year, and it is estimated that an equal 655,000 cases are not diagnosed. Some estimates cite some 47 million people with the basket of symptoms known as Syndrome X. A classic symptom and hint of the metabolic syndrome is the accumulation of fat in the abdomen and the inability to lose fat and weight. Dr. Simeon Margolis, co-author of a Johns Hopkins report on Syndrome X, says that abdominal obesity is often the first outward sign of Syndrome X. It seems to be associated with insulin resistance." - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)

"It is like the laws of gravity are being ignored and E does not equal MC2 in the world of medical science and practice. It is simply incredible how intelligence and medical logic have been thrown out the window for blind belief systems that more than equal the kind that believed the world was flat. How does magnesium impact each stage of development and bring us to either a longer life, or a more peaceful death? How do we accept this gift of life and drink of its benefits?" - Mark Sircus, Transdermal Magnesium Therapy (Get the book.)

"High insulin levels (fasting hyperinsulinemia) can be defined as levels equal to or greater than 15 uU/mL (microunits per milliliter), but levels greater than 10 uU/mL also suggest risk. (Please note: in addition to insulin resistance, elevated insulin levels can indicate acromegaly, Cushing's syndrome, insulinoma, or fructose or galactose intolerance, or they may be the result of the use of prescription drugs such as levodopa, oral contraceptives, corticosteroids." - Steven V.

"But after women go through menopause and stop making estrogen, they start producing uric acid in amounts equal to those of men. That's why women seldom have gout before menopause, but later in life can have the same problems with it that men do. Gout is one of a cluster of diseases called the "metabolic syndrome" (see chapter 9). Gout often accompanies obesity, high blood pressure, cholesterol abnormalities, and diabetes. Most people with the metabolic syndrome have high uric acid levels, but only some of these individuals go on to develop gout." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.)

"In a nonlinear system, 2 + 2 may equal 5 or even 8. The systems behavior is more than a sum of its parts—but how much more we can't often predict. In Walker's and Stapp's view, turning quantum theory into a nonlinear system would enable them to include one other element in the equation: the human mind. In Schmidt's martial arts study, the numbers on the visual display remained in their "potential" state of all possible sets of numbers until they had been observed by the students. At that point, the mental intent of the students and the numbers on the display interacted in a quantum way." - Lynne McTaggart, The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World (Get the book.)

"Hart were randomly divided into two equal groups—active and placebo. The active group participants were given the actual neurotransmitter precursor lozenges, while the placebo group was given the same product with no active ingredients. The participants were provided with enough CraniYums to take two lozenges, three times per day—six total per day. They were instructed to dissolve the neurotransmitter precursor lozenges slowly in their mouth and not chew them. The participants filled out the symptom rating responses on a weekly basis." - Cheryle Hart, M.D., and Mary Kay Grossman, RD, The Feel-Good Diet (Get the book.)

"They decided that all their REG studies should follow the same design: each participant sitting in front of the machine would undergo three tests of equal length. In the first, they would will the machine to produce more is then os (or 'Hi's, as PEAR researchers put it). In the second, they would mentally direct the machine to produce more os than is (more 'LO's). In the third, they would attempt not to influence the machine in any way. This three-stage process was to guard against any bias in the equipment. The machine would then record the operator's decisions virtually simultaneously." - Lynne Mctaggart, The Field - The Quest for the Secret Force of the Universe (Get the book.)
