Health Issues for Barbadians – Diabetes, Hypertension, Alzheimer, Erectile Dysfunction

Submitted by Bentley

For years (article published in Barbados Underground in 2007) I have been saying that diabetes, hypertension, Alzheimer, erectile dysfunction and several other similar conditions all have the same cause, the inability of the body to metabolise carbohydrates effectively, a condition named Chronic Metabolic Collapse Syndrome.  The medical community is only now recognising this.  It will take at least another 15 years before they start recommending effective methods to prevent these conditions.

    Great topics and I should be able to contribute to this conversation ….

    As GP would tell you hypertension, diabetes and erectile dysfunction have a close Association …. hypertension in black people is closely associated with a salt-sensitive gene … foods high in sodium seem to have a damaging impact on black people health … why this is reseachers do not really understand as of yet … in other words: sodium don’t really affect other races the way in which it affects black people …

    I agree with lexicon barbadians tend to avoid salt and things associated with it for example salary comes from the latin salarium meaning salt money So avoiding anything that could get you a salary as lexicon says seems not to be as benificial to other races.

    in roman times the soldiers received salt for their salaries as salt was a very important commodity then
    perhaps we should go back to that in contemporary Barbados except that the populace is already SUCKING SALT!

    “If the salt has lost its savour with what shall it be salted.”
    I always wondered why salt was so scarce in ancient times that it was used as money; and why kissing was used as a ploy to lick the salt off friends faces.

    Salt was important in ancient times because it was used as preserver … the Egyptians used salt as means to preserved the pharaohs … to immortalized them …

    The thing about salt and PG with his vast medical insight can probably substantiate this … it is good in small quantities … the body needs it … however if comsumed in excess it will stay in the bloodstream … and elevate the blood pressure …

    School them on the fact that if elevated pressure is left unchecked … it can give you a stroke or heart attack … or it can lead to left ventricle hypertrophy ( a thickening of the left ventricle … which can leave to congestive heart failure) or a possible aneurysm or it can split the aortic artery in haft … etc

    However, there are some theories that describe the brain as a muscle in the sense that it can be trained to improve different cognitive functions like working memory or math skills.

    Look at the nonesense they put in medical books … they say that a psychopath cannot empathize with the suffering of others because he was born devoid that part of the brain that is conducive to emotions … and that a child under the age of 16 cannot give sexual consent to an adult because his or her brain does not have the ecognitive infrastructure as of yet … but they then turn around and charge the same 16 with the undeveloped mental architecture as an adult for committing heinous crimes …

    Students who are told they can get smarter if they train their brains to be stronger, like a muscle, do better in school, a new psychology study shows.
    Many people have various theories about the nature of intelligence. Some view it as a fixed trait, while others see intelligence as a quality that can develop and expand.
    These ideas have can have a profound effect on the motivation to learn, said researcher Carol Dweck, a child and social psychologist at Stanford University.

    THIS IS NEITHER FACTUAL OR LOGICAL.

    NOW HAL IF YOU START WITH A BRAIN AND YOU USE IT REGULARLY SOLVING PROBLEMS THE BRAIN WILL BE MORE EFFICIENT AT SOLVING THOSE PROBLEMS

    The truth: as we get older and some become inflicted with high blood pressure, diabetes etc it will unfortunately leave some members in a spot of bother. Not sure viagra and the associated drugs will offer a miracle cure 🙂
