    [Oxidative stress in a model for experimental diabetic

    PURPOSE: Diabetic retinopathy is the primary cause of
    blindness in developed countries, and though strict glycemic
    control is desirable to prevent complications, this is not
    always achievable. Thus, adjunctive therapies are needed to
    help in preventing or delaying the onset of diabetic
    complications. We have studied the biochemical and
    functional changes in the retina of diabetic mice, and the
    ability of ebselen and lutein, two antioxidants, to reverse
    these effects, using as a comparison the effect of insulin
    therapy. METHODS: Alloxan injection was used to achieve
    hyperglycemia. Malondialdehyde
    (MDA) concentration in blood and glutathione peroxidase
    (GPx) activity in eye homogenate were measured. Serial
    electroretinograms (ERG) were recorded. RESULTS: MDA
    concentration in the blood was high in diabetic
    animals. GPx activity in eye homogenate decreased in
    the diabetic conditions. Maximal electroretinogram
    amplitude decreased in diabetic animals with respect
    to controls. Ebselen and lutein restored MDA levels,
    GPx activity and ERG amplitude, and had no effect on
    glycemia. CONCLUSION: These results call for further
    studies on ebselen or lutein as adequate adjunctive
    therapies for diabetes (Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol 2004;
    79: 289-294).

    By the way, are you seriously implying that eating meat is
    against god or christianity? Have you even read the bible?
    You must think you are better than god because animals are
    good enough for him. If meat is good enough for god it is
    certainly good enough for man, but not you huh? How do those
    two insignificant quotes show that eating animals is bad or
    that jesus is a vegetarian. Here are some quotes for you.

    Genesis chapter 18:

    "And the Lord appeared unto him (Abraham) in the plains of
    Mamre. . .And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf
    tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted
    to dress it...And he took butter, and milk, and the calf
    which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood
    by them under the tree, and they did eat."

    Mmmmm now God knows good eats when he sees it. Butter, milk,
    and tender beef yum. Nothing vegetarian about that. Foods we
    can all benefit from eating more of. Now I always thought
    god had infinite wisdom but maybe you should still inform
    him about the dangers of animal foods and saturated just to
    make sure. We wouldnt want him dropping dead from heart
    disease. I can just imagine a lowly delusional mortal trying
    to inform god what to eat and what not to eat.

    Mark chapter 7: Quotes from Jesus

    "There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him
    can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those
    are they that defile the man...because it goeth not into his
    heart, but into his belly, and goeth out into the draught?
    `This he said', making all meats clean."

    First Timothy Chapter 4: I like this one!!

    "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times
    some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing
    spirits, and doctrines of devils;

    Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared
    with a hot iron;

    Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats,
    which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of
    them which believe and know the truth."

    hehe, speaking lies and hypocrisy, commanding to abstain
    from meats, sounds like he is describing vegan animal rights
    fanatics perfectly. What foresight

    "For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be
    refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:

    For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

    If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things,
    thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up
    in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou
    hast attained."

    Now if that makes a good minister of jesus does that make
    your words doctrines of devils?? haha

    Romans Chapter 14: This one is good too.

    "Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to
    doubtful disputations. For one believeth that he may eat all
    things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs."

    It really is hard to comprehend how full of [censored] you are.
    Claiming that there is a "medical message" in the bible and
    it is to not eat meat!!! What are you smoking?? Are you
    serious?? Talk about self delusion. Why dont you add those
    quotes to your freakin site along with your TWO sorry
    quotes. I really can not imagine how you take yourself
    seriously or even get up in the morning knowing what a fraud
    you are. Or is that where the self delusional part comes in?
    Anyway I got tired of seeing your damn links and decided to
    call you on what a joke you are since no one else seems to
    be doing it. Nothing personal 🙂

    Come on then - publish the results of the police checks &

    I'm coming to Canada in a few weeks time - perhaps we
    could meet up ?
