Pineal gland calcification under hypoxic conditions

Pineal gland calcification

Calcification of the pineal gland is shown to be closely related to defective sense of direction. In a tricentre prospective study of 750 patients lateral skull radiographs showed that 394 had calcified pineal glands. Sense of direction was assessed by subjective questioning and objective testing and the results noted on a scale of0-10 (where 10 equals perfect sense ofdirection). The average sc...

Pineal Calcification, Melatonin Production, Aging, Associated Health Consequences and Rejuvenation of the Pineal Gland.

The pineal gland is a unique organ that synthesizes melatonin as the signaling molecule of natural photoperiodic environment and as a potent neuronal protective antioxidant. An intact and functional pineal gland is necessary for preserving optimal human health. Unfortunately, this gland has the highest calcification rate among all organs and tissues of the human body. Pineal calcification jeopa...

Strength training under hypoxic conditions

Recently, Kon et al. (2014) published in this journal an interesting paper entitled “Effects of systemic hypoxia on human muscular adaptations to resistance exercise training “ which determined the effect of 8 weeks of resistance training (5 sets of 10 reps at 70% of 1 RM of free weight bench-press and bilateral leg-press using a weight-stack machine) under hypoxia (HRT, 14.4% O2) or normoxia, ...

The Pineal Gland

mied nearly in tbe center of the B brain in any mammal is a small white structure, sbaped somewhat like a pinecone, called tbe pineal body. ln man this organ is rougbly a quarter of an inch long and weighs about a tenth of a gram. The function of tbe pineal body has never been clearly understood. Now that tbe role of tbe tbymus gland in establishing tbe body’s immunological defenses bas been de...
