| Kratom (Mitragyna species) is a medicinal leaf harvested from a large tree native to Southeast Asia. It is in the same family as the coffee tree. Although using Kratom has been common throughout its native range of Southeast Asia, this amazing plant has remained virtually unknown outside of that area until the last few years. The leaves of Kratom have been used as an herbal drug from time immemorial by peoples of Southeast Asia. Mitragyna species is used in folk medicine as a stimulant at low doses, sedative at high doses, pain killer, anti-diarrheal medicine and in the treatment of opiate addiction. |

From the NYDN:
Sheen's wife, real-estate investor Brooke Mueller, gave birth to twin boys last month in Los Angeles, but Max, unlike brother Bob, has yet to go home.
"The weight issue is very common among infants who were born before reaching full term," Sheen said to Us. -
That was reported on April 3rd 2009. Now, I know they were twins and that makes it harder but I just can't help but think that those who dabble in heroin and crack are just going to magically give up their addictions. I'm not saying it's so, just something to think about as I know, I've battled some demons of my own.
Real estate investor, uh-huh.


Pediatric hydrocephalus affects one in every 500 live births,[2] making it one of the most common developmental disabilities, more common than Down syndrome or deafness.[3] It is the leading cause of brain surgery for children in the United States. There are over 180 different causes of the condition, one of the most common acquired etiologies being brain hemorrhage associated with premature birth. Pediatric hydrocephalus may also be a heritable condition, and mainly affects males. Hydrocephalus may be detectable during prenatal ultrasound examinations.-![]()

You can also try a topical vitamin C cream to encourage collagen production, just as your body does naturally when you are young. The trick here is to use a formulation containing the L-ascorbic acid form of vitamin C, the only one that can penetrate skin layers and do the job.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid. A powerful antioxidant, hundreds of times more potent that either vitamin C or E, alpha-lipoic acid may turn out to be a super boost for aging skin. What makes it so special, say skin experts, is its ability to penetrate both oil and water, affecting skin cells from both the inside and the outside of the body. Most other antioxidants can do one but not both.
Hyaluronic Acid. Made by the body, this nutrient's main job is to lubricate joints so that knees, elbows, fingers, and toes all move smoothly and easily. But Sullivan says research shows it also plays a role in skin cells, acting as a kind of glue that helps hold them together, keeping skin looking smoother and younger. Another plus is its ability to hold water, up to 1,000 times its weight, which means more moisture in each skin cell.
I will research and rewrite this article. This is a rough draft. I will incorporate this article on aging.
