"Hydrogenation is a process that changes liquid, unsaturated, relatively healthy oil into a more solid form, which increases a product's shelf life and helps make foods with a smoother texture. When the fat becomes solid, the body treats it more like a saturated fat, although it is not classified as saturated fat on food labels. But hydrogenation has serious health consequences because it creates trans fats.Trans fats are polyunsaturated vegetable oils that have been processed to make them remain solid at room temperature." - Frank Lipman, Mollie Doyle, Spent: Revive: Stop Feeling Spent and Feel Great Again (Get the book.)

"Nodule: solid bump under the skin ¦ Papule: solid bump on the skin ¦ Pustule: small, pus-filled bumps on the skin • Telangiectasia: visible, dilated blood vessels under the skin chloasma), a type of hyperpigmen-tation. Melasma is much more common in women than men; dark-skinned women tend to develop this condition more than light-skinned women. Exposure to the sun and estrogen also increase the risk. In a young woman, melasma is often a signal that she's pregnant." - Joan Liebmann-Smith, Ph.

But hydrogenation has serious health consequences because it creates trans fats.Trans fats are polyunsaturated vegetable oils that have been processed to make them remain solid at room temperature. Trans fats also come from frying food in polyunsaturated vegetable oils, such as corn oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, and soy oil, all of which are not bad for you until they are heated." - Frank Lipman, Mollie Doyle, Spent: Revive: Stop Feeling Spent and Feel Great Again (Get the book.)

"A quantum of acoustic or vibrational energy, rathet like a particle of sound, that occurs in a rigid crystal lattice of a solid and can be used to calculate the thermal and vibrational aspects of the solid. In terms of energy, it also refers to the absorption of light by its conversion to vibrational energy. As a photon is to light, a phonon is to sound. photon: A quantum of electromagnetic energy. The name of the quantum particle associated with light, although light has both particle and wave characteristics." - Peter h.

"In order to understand the problem, you need to first understand that a tooth is not a solid inanimate structure. Each single tooth is a living structure sustained by some 3 miles of microscopic tubules running through the solid dentin. In a healthy tooth, those tubules, which make up a full 90% of the actual tooth, can be thought of as the tooth's "arteries and veins." Once a tooth has had it's root filled, it no longer has any nourishment circulating through it's tubules, but the tubules themselves remain—unfilled. And therein lies the problem." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"Full circle, from the tomb of the womb to the womb of the tomb, we come: an ambiguous, enigmatical incursion into a world of solid matter that is soon to at what had promised to be our own unique, unpredictable, and dangerous adventure, all we find in the end is such a series of standard metamorphoses as men and women have undergone in every quarter of the world, in all recorded centuries, and under every odd disguise of civilization." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)

"For example, consuming fresh raw fruit and vegetable juices daily can achieve in one month what might normally take six months for a healthy diet of only solid food to achieve.5 Restoring digestive enzymes and friendly bacteria, and consuming complete foods that contain alkaline minerals can shorten recovery time considerably. Quantum physics has now proven that in three years we don't have one old cell left. Ninety-eight percent of the body can be totally regenerated in one year on a good program of enzymes, complete foods, and proper detoxification." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"Some people are OK with waiting until finally there is solid "evidence" that radio waves can cause cancer before they give up their beloved cell phones. Others continue using them just as many continue smoking, although the risks for the latter are known. It is really up to each individual to decide what 24 Those who used modern cellular phones for more than 2,000 hours in their lifetime had the highest risk increase. Surprisingly, the risk was highest among people under the age of 20. to do about it.

"She carries herself as if she were on solid ground. The truth is, her situation hasn't changed all that much—just her response to it and thus her attitude. She says she uses exercise the same way someone else might take a shot of whiskey or alprazolam (Xanax) to calm her nerves. Her strategy has noticeably lowered her anxiety sensitivity, which allows the brain to learn its way out of the trap. THE EVIDENCE In 2004 a researcher named Joshua Broman-Fulks from the University of Southern Mississippi tested whether exercise would reduce anxiety sensitivity." - John J. Ratey, MD, Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain (Get the book.)

"Saturated fats, which we just discussed, are easy to identify because they're solid at room temperature (think butter). Trans fats, a once popular additive in many packaged foods, may be even worse for you than saturated fats. The good news is that new labeling laws let you know how much trans fat is in a product. And by limiting full-fat dairy products, higher-fat red meats, poultry skin, stick margarine (except cholesterol-lowering types), cookies, crackers, and fast-food french fries, you can significantly reduce your risk of heart disease." - Elaine Magee, Food Synergy: Unleash Hundreds of Powerful Healing Food Combinations to Fight Disease and Live Well (Get the book.)

"Since the rendering plant stopped accepting companion animals the animal control officers at Caddo Animal Control have been trucking the carcasses to a solid waste plant where they are charged $4 per animal. A solid waste plant does not render the animals but disposes of them the way household garbage would be disposed of—either by incinerarion or dumpsites. The total cost for this method of disposal amounts to more then $24,000 by the end of the year. The rendering contract had cost $5,200." - Ann N.

"You should consult with a doctor or trainer who knows your history, but I can give you some solid guidelines. AEROBIC. Exercise four days a week, varying from thirty minutes to an hour, at 60 to 65 percent of your maximum heart rate. At this level, you'll be burning fat in the body and generating the ingredients necessary for all the structural changes in the brain I've discussed. Walking should be perfectly adequate, but do it outside with a friend if possible. Whatever you choose, try to find something that you will enjoy over the long haul." - John J. Ratey, MD, Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain (Get the book.) "It all adds up to solid evidence of how exercise helps the brain learn. "One of the prominent features of exercise, which is sometimes not appreciated in studies, is an improvement in the rate of learning, and I think that's a really cool take-home message," Cotman says. "Because it suggests that if you're in good shape, you may be able to learn and function more efficiently." - John J. Ratey, MD, Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain (Get the book.) "The first solid link between neurogenesis and learning came from one of Gage's colleagues, Henrietta van Praag. They used a rodent-size pool filled with opaque water to hide a platform just beneath the surface in one quadrant. Mice don't like water, so the experiment was designed to test how well they remember, from an earlier dip, the location of the platform—their escape route. When comparing inactive mice with others that hit the running wheel four to five kilometers a night, the results showed that the runners remembered where to find safety more quickly." - John J.

"In June 2007, the American Cancer Society and other medical associations officially recognized the following as early warning signs of ovarian cancer, particularly if they last for more than just a few weeks: ¦ Pelvic or abdominal pain ¦ Difficulty eating or feeling full quickly • Feeling a frequent or urgent need to urinate THE SCOOP ON POOP A variety of terms are used to describe the solid waste our bodies produce. There are formal ones, such as bowel movement (BM), feces, excrement, and stool, and more colloquial ones, including poop, poo, caca, crap, doody, doo-doo, dump, and turd." - Joan Liebmann-Smith, Ph.

"While the above studies didn't show a causative relationship between calcium intake and weight status, animal studies have shown this solid relationship between calcium intake and body fat, body weight, and weight gain. One study on mice found that when calories were restricted, the mice on a high-calcium diet lost more fat than the mice on a low-calcium diet. The researchers speculated that the calcium could help in the breakdown of fat. While the low-calcium diet promoted fat storage, the high-calcium diet promoted fat usage and slowed fat storage." - Wendy Bazilian, DRPH, MA, RD, Steven Pratt, MD, Kathy Matthews, Superfoods Rx Diet: Lose Weight with the Power of SuperNutrients (Get the book.)

"That is, an electron is less like a solid object, say a billiard ball, and more like a cloud, a fog of potentiality, with a probability of the electron being anywhere in that fog until it is measured. Only then, upon measurement (or more accurately, upon detection, since these entities are not measureable in terms of length, depth, and other such physical characteristics), can it be said to have a definite location. Because the quantum domain is so unimaginably tiny, events there occur at equally unimaginable speeds." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)

"Finally, solid research has shown something that is both a bit surprising, but also very encouraging for experienced dieters with a long history of restricting intake: A major study examining the diet habits of 7,500 adults showed that individuals who consumed a lower-overall-calorie diet as their normal behavior actually consumed more food in terms of size and weight from most food groups than individuals who ate a high-calorie diet. This lower-calorie diet included more of the SuperNutrient SuperFoods as well as other foods that were high in fiber, high in water, and actually weighed more." - Wendy Bazilian, DRPH, MA, RD, Steven Pratt, MD, Kathy Matthews, Superfoods Rx Diet: Lose Weight with the Power of SuperNutrients (Get the book.) "Moreover, because liquids are less filling than solid foods, those high-cal drinks aren't even satisfying. By skipping the mocha frappuccinos and substituting a glass of water or club soda with lemon or lime, you'll reach your weight-loss goals a lot faster. One study found that dieters who replaced virtually all sweetened drinks with water lost an average of 5 pounds more in a year than those who did not. Moreover, those who drank more than four cups of water a day lost an additional 2 pounds compared to dieters who did not drink that much." - Wendy Bazilian, DRPH, MA, RD, Steven Pratt, MD, Kathy Matthews, Superfoods Rx Diet: Lose Weight with the Power of SuperNutrients (Get the book.) "Place cooked meatballs in a single layer on a baking pan and freeze. When solid, transfer to a freezer container, label, and freeze. By freezing in this manner, you will be able to easily remove the amount needed from the freezer container because they will not clump. To reheat frozen meatballs, place in a preheated 350-degree oven for 15 minutes. Alternative Preparation Method: Substitute 14 ounces of pressed firm tofu for the turkey and add 1 tablespoon of low-sodium soy sauce." - Wendy Bazilian, DRPH, MA, RD, Steven Pratt, MD, Kathy Matthews, Superfoods Rx Diet: Lose Weight with the Power of SuperNutrients (Get the book.)

"Saturated fats are solid and found in products such as lard and butter. They contain large quantities of natural antioxidants, which make them much safer against oxidation by free radicals. Since polyunsaturated fats are manufactured and do not exist in natural form, they are indigestible, and the body recognized them as dangerous. Margarine, for example, is just one molecule away from plastic, and therefore extremely difficult to digest. Free radicals, which are the body's natural cleansers, try to get rid of the fatty culprits that have affixed themselves to the cell membranes." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "The extracellular pH of solid tumors is significantly more acidic compared to normal tissues. By altering the pH of a tumor it becomes exposed to more oxygen, which can cause its destruction. To get as close as possible to the tumor tissue, Dr Simoncini places a small catheter directly into the artery that nourishes the tumor, and administers high doses of sodium bicarbonate to the deepest recesses of the tumor. He claims that most tumors treated in this way will break up within several days, similar to the maple syrup bicarbonate treatment. Marine Phytoplankton?" - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "The maple syrup is capable of transporting bicarbonate into all parts of body, including the brain and nervous system, bones, teeth, joints, eyes and solid tumors. It may also help with other conditions of acidosis. Sodium bicarbonate therapy is harmless and so quick-acting because it is extremely diffusible. Bob's Red Mill or other brands state on their labels "Aluminum-free." The greatest advocate of sodium bicarbonate as a cancer therapy is the prominent oncologist Dr. Tullio Simoncini in Rome, Italy." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"It's as unique to you as your t thumbprint. As solid as our Core Intentions might be, when we're facing illness we're most vulnerable to losing sight of them. Because we become dependent on others and may feel weak, the Core Intentions of other people can take over. This injures us. We are forced out of a healthy alignment with our most deeply held beliefs and desires, and when we stress our systems in this way our bodies suffer at a critical time when they most need to be strong." - Rick Foster, Greg Hicks, M.D., Jen Seda, Choosing Brilliant Health: 9 Choices That Redefine What It Takes to Create Lifelong Vitality and Well-Being (Get the book.)

"A fresh juice diet requires only about 10% of the energy needed to digest solid food. When nausea is evident, it is the result of a concentration of toxins in the intestine. This can happen due to overeating, or eating overly toxic or spoiled food. When there is a toxic overload being eliminated from the body, the liver, which normally metabolizes waste products, may be forced to expel toxins directly into the intestines, where they cause irritation and nausea. When this happens, the last thing the body needs is more food." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"O, that this too too solid flesh would melt, Thaw and resolve itself into a dew! Or that the Everlasting had not fix'd His canon 'gainst self-slaughter! O God! God! So exclaims the great spokesman of this moment, Hamlet: How weary, stale, flat, and unprofitable Seem to me all the uses of this world! Fie on't! ah fie! 'tis an unweeded garden, That grows to seed; things rank and gross in nature Possess it merely. That it should come to this! 38 The innocent delight of Oedipus in his first possession of the queen turns to an agony of spirit when he learns who the woman is." - Joseph Campbell, The Hero with a Thousand Faces Joseph Campbell (Get the book.)
