"If you think of one piece of cholesterol as a concrete block, then it would be a realistic analogy to think of LDL as the size of a ups truck. Inside the LDL-UPS truck are its packages. These contain fats that have been eaten, many small pieces of cholesterol, and the fat-soluble nutrients like vitamin E, D, K, beta carotene, and coenzyme Q10. The only way for these vital nutrients to get to a cell is if the LDL-UPS truck takes them there. Every cell counts on this for survival." - Byron J.

"In addition to its ups activity, LDL can also perform "remote liver duties" while out and about in the body. LDL helps to deactivate toxins and waste products of germs that would otherwise poison the body, helping to bind them up and bring them back to the liver for removal from the body. If the LDL-UPS truck gets in an accident, usually caused by too many toxins or inflammatory compounds in the blood, then it becomes damaged or oxidized. It is this damaged form of LDL that is likely to form plaque in the arteries." - Byron J. Richards, Fight for Your Health: Exposing the FDA's Betrayal of America (Get the book.)

"But it was never my intent to argue that one can explain the ups and downs of the markets well in terms of the precipitating factors alone. The markets have lives of their own due to the effects of feedback, the amplification mechanism that spreads out the effect of the precipitating factors through time and that sometimes makes the effects of the factors so big and so important as to take our breath away. It is to these amplifying mechanisms which we turn in the next chapter." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"Along with his physical symptoms of Cushing's, Ernesto also developed emotional ups and downs, and he became more irritable and easily angered.

You don't need to medicate and sedate yourself through menopause, and you don't need to be frightened by the latest health study warning you off hormones?the very hormones that gave you pregnancy, breast-fed your babies, and provided you with great sex and good skin. You do not need to wait for 241 the next double-blind, statistically manipulated mega-study to tell you what is right." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)

"Through the downs and ups of her life over the past 15 years, Mrs. Martin had come to trust that I understood that her walking was essential to keeping her anxiety and panic attacks under control. Walking meant the difference between a tortured life and a fulfilling life. Because she knew that I knew this, she was able to consider my suggestions. That is where we started our discussion." - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.)

"They do not laugh or cry at the ups and downs of the world, but maintain an inner equanimity in the face of loss or gain. In one way or another, this is what all the great religions have been trying to tell us. They may couch it in different terms, clothe it in different doctrines, teach it through different metaphors, and approach it through different practices, but they all share the same underlying goal. That goal is to leave behind self-centered desires —to be free from our attachment to material circumstances and from our beliefs about the way things should or should not be." - Peter Russell, Waking Up In Time: Finding Inner Peace In Times of Accelerating Change (Get the book.)

The odour can be from old mucous and/or bacterial infections." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)

"Such feedback loops may be a factor not only in the historic bull and bear markets for the aggregate stock market but also, with some differences in details, in the ups and downs of the housing market and of individual investments as well. Feedback is a familiar term for engineers, who are aware of the many occurrences and effects of feedback. A familiar example of feedback occurs when one brings a microphone (which receives sound and sends the electronically encoded sound) close to a loudspeaker (which translates the electronically encoded sound into actual sound)." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"The index shows quite a number of ups and downs in home prices over this period—as one might expect from the city that gave us the tulip mania, the remarkable boom in the price of tulips in the early 1600s. According to Eichholtz's data, Herengracht home prices doubled between 1628-29 and 1632-33, just before the peak of the tulip mania, and home prices fell almost back to their 1628-29 level before tulips peaked in 1637. The market for these homes was certainly volatile." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"He suffered from daily emotional ups and downs as each dose of Xanax wore off. Out of the blue, Sam got a call from the SEC—the Securities and Exchange Commission. Sam was suspected of insider trading. Sam was guileless and readily volunteered to be deposed under oath by the government. He was happy to straighten out any misunderstanding.

"PMS: NATURAL ups AND DOWNS Scientists don't know precisely what causes PMS, but changes in hormone levels are an obvious place to look for clues. The sex hormones are powerful messengers that travel throughout the bloodstream, and aside from overseeing the development of gender characteristics, they influence the brain in many ways. The cycle begins with signals from the hypothalamus that prompt the pituitary gland to secrete hormones called gonadotropins, which travel to the ovaries and trigger the mass production of estrogen and progesterone." - John J.

"Everyone has ups and downs, tough days and easy days. But each small step in the right direction gets you closer to your goal. One day, one step, one minute, one blueberry at a time.

Keep your eyes on the prize, but reflect on how far you've come." - Wendy Bazilian, DRPH, MA, RD, Steven Pratt, MD, Kathy Matthews, Superfoods Rx Diet: Lose Weight with the Power of SuperNutrients (Get the book.)

"The hormonal ups and downs and erratic bleeding end and stability reigns.

"I prefer this test to a morning Cortisol measurement because it takes into account the ups and downs of Cortisol production and gives you a twenty-four-hour average. If your twenty-four-hour urine cortisol is less than 50 ug per twenty-four hours, I recommend using a strong support such as bioidentical Cortisol itself. If your level is over 50 ug per twenty-four hours, I recommend a milder support (adrenal extract or herbal support)—but more on this later." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)

"Life is an exciting adventure, but without awareness it seems to be a series of inevitable ups and downs, good and bad times, and unpredictability. As we cycle between our states of comfort and discomfort, it is easy to think that God or some force outside our control is doing it to us, that life is more or less a game of chance. Nothing could be further from the truth. The truth is that we were designed to be creators of our own lives. But, in order to do so, we have to learn to become conscious directors." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"Despite the medical ups and downs, Harry refused to allow the mysterious illness to derail his life. He applied to and was accepted into the master's of business degree program at a British university, but only one week into the program, he knew he did not have the strength or clarity of thought to continue. Instead of quitting, he received approval to split the one-year course over two years. Most days he could not get out of bed to attend lectures, so friends would take notes for him. With their help, he managed to make it through his first year." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.) "Plus, our emotions, beliefs, perceptions, memories, and more affect our biology, so as long as we are thinking, feeling, and emoting human beings, we will be experiencing the ups and downs of life and reacting to them, often to the detriment of our health. An additional point is that the functional aspects of our illnesses tend to be more easily corrected than the physical symptoms. The nonphysical, nontangible aspects of ourselves, such as our emotions, thought processes, coping strategies, and decision-making abilities?" - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)
