Could learning languages and listening to over-dubbed audio could h elp with hearing loss? – #hearingloss #health #aging #fitness #languages

I can’t much about this yet, but I’m going to look into it further. There are hints. For example, language instruction may help with learning&listening skills. For the hardware minded, you need an audio compressor to make quality over-dubs. Language and has been studied mainly in children. The subject is pregnant with intimation, but nothing substantive. According to this article, the ability to learn languages does not decline with age.

http://bit.ly/2bMdwGU

The article contains a reference regarding accommodations to hearing-impaired language learners.

The idea that learning could affect hearing probably violates certain dogmas. For age-related hearing loss, there are reasons to believe that learning could help.

Of course, all of these arguments could also apply to training on a new musical instrument. Here is a example of the kind of thing I’m talking about from the article.

The development of the receptive skills (particularly listening) before the productive skills may have much to offer the older learner.

Tantalizing that language or musical training could reverse the early onset stage. The idea is that the rudiments of age-related hearing loss could be present in the brain before symptoms appear. Such mild cases might be reversed by cognitive training, like language or musical instrument learning.

http://bit.ly/2blG3ON

Unlike languages, there is already much evidence that musical training can help For many of us, the idea that hearing and listening skills can be cultivated is the most tantalizing. We really need an anti-aging strategy for our ears.

Resveratrol and minoxidil synergistic?

.
I’m giving my first go with the minoxidil. As a longevity enthusiast, it is a fascinating experience. Current model predicts that minoxidil and flavonoids may have convergent effects, due to related effects on vascularization. Perhaps no surprise then, I seem to be responding well to the minoxidil, possibly good response appearing in the first 30 days. I should have another look at the literature. I would not be surprised to see a synergistic response combining with flavonoids. I’m responding well in my mid-50’s, I only have mildly thinning male pattern. My BP is good, but higher than I want. Minoxidil helps w/that.

Here is something. flavonoids may interfere with minoxidil metabolism. That would explain it.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11780759

Don’t worry, I’m keeping an eye on BP, and other contra-indications.

People always associate hair growth with the snake oil. It sadly impedes the research somewhat. There are some reports that apple polyphenols are a good minoxidil replacement. I can’t yet tell if this is serious.

The French have something that is maybe worth a look.
http://www.biovea.com/fr/

It looks like the European supplement community is combining minoxidil and resveratrol. No surprise. This all impinges on the MAOB inhibitor story. Wow! Minoxidil adverse reports are rare. No surprise I can’t find any problems with combining minoxidil and flavonoids.

Almost no research about this. This is interesting.
http://1.usa.gov/1RTjNrW There is

In this article, Hesperidin affects potassium current. Minoxidil also does this. http://1.usa.gov/1VClj8P

I’ll give further reports, if I learn anything
more about this.

Android TV sticks

Lately, I’ve been indulging my inner AV tech, among other things. The latest generation of Android TV sticks makes this more interesting. If you like network technology, you are bound to enjoy these small marvels. It is bound to make an impression on your friends.

There are many plans for these devices, and they are regularly updated. The Android TV stick technology is still young and evolving. If you want a head start on a clever new technology, time is running out. Get started soon. Fortunately, money is not much of an obstacle. If you have fast wireless & good TV, you have what you need to get started for less than $40. There are now many channels. Some people literally “cut the cord”, and use their TV for nothing but wireless access. Personally, I like wires. You should see all my wires. I’ll keep them.

There are FOSS projects for Android TV sticks, notably Kodi/XBMC, and lots of new books for beginners. If you are into arcane TV&movie genres, this is where the technology shines. There’s likely a channel for you, and even free access. There’s still lots of room for technology adepts to have some fun and impress their friends. OTOH, you don’t have to be a gear head. Major vendors are providing plug and play Android TV sticks for the masses. But, if you like doing things like side-loading non-vendor software and rooting Androids, you are going to have tons of fun.

If you brick the stick, hey, You’re only out $40. It’s almost irresistible. Most of the sticks coming out now are quad core, and they they are getting much faster. If you want to use it as a computer, it is there.

Seems to me that young people are avoiding pregnancy more. Maybe they don’t want an abortion?

Johnston’s Archive gets high marks for data and graphs. – statistics and other data http://bit.ly/1J1mGYz
Operation Rescue has a great data and graphs page. – Abortions In America http://bit.ly/1CI1GEO

Sadly, abortion rates may be falling only because people are having less children. The counter-argument is that the general public has a less favorable view of abortion than they have had in years. Second Amendment Foundation has an unparalleled data and graphs archive. We could really use something like that for the pro life community. With so many women having abortions, why don’t we know more about outcomes. A human life is taken, and we have so much trouble studying the societal effect. We cannot be content with over 1 million abortions every year. It’s time for a big change. If someone knows of other great pro life activism data that I haven’t mentioned, please let me know.

Can biochemical synergy explain higher recuperative powers? – #aging #biking #carfree #cataracts #diet #exercise #fitness #flavonoid #food #health #lifespan #longevity #maculardegeneration #nutrition #polyphenol #running #sunscreen #sunscreen. #workout

All of this started several years ago with some 20 mile bike rides. Don’t be distressed to start small and work up to it. If you exercise for hours in the sunshine, sunscreen is must. Don’t forget it. It is always sad to see these exceptional athletes with skin cancer. Use it. I don’t think that food interventions are sufficient against UV rays. No doubt, some foods increase the risk of sunburn.

BTW, this looks like a good test for vision problems.
http://bit.ly/1MM4YHf There are some examples of what can go wrong with the test here -> http://bit.ly/1BjAr31 There must be many other types of vision tests people can do online. This is a great topic!

Here is the current state of my polyphenol and flavonoid diet recommendations.
http://bit.ly/1j83XJu The idea is to accelerate athletic progress by improving recuperation times. More work is needed in this area. I’d be delighted to hear any suggestions. Improved recuperation could explain so much that is hard to understand about high athleticism. It is necessary to heal faster, in order to do what many accomplished athletes are doing. It is reasonable to think about higher recuperative powers, because the effects of beneficial diet and exercise are additive. We may soon discover synergy between longevity nutrition and high athleticism. Synergy, not in the fluffy magical sense, but in the biochemical sense. The real synergy. It is difficult for me to explain the gum line result without resort to biochemical synergy. http://bit.ly/1CYipiF

Increase METs level for longevity – #fitness #running #exercise #he alth #workout #biking #nutrition #aging #longevity #fitfam #lifespan #gym # pollen #pets #asthma #allergy #allergies #survival #diet #run #healthylivin g #fitnessfriday #fasting #carfree #angina #Intervals

I’ve been pointing out much data about METs lately. Intervals are likely the best way to increase your METs level.

Here is a good Mayo Clinic article about it.
http://buff.ly/1yZ2MEU

MassGen:Decreased red blood cell clearance appears to predict development and worsening of serious diseases http://bit.ly/1Dazgwy

Frontiers | Red blood cells in sports: Effects of exercise and training on oxygen supply by red blood cells http://bit.ly/1Gf8JCX

Overall, athletes have a larger and younger population of RBCs. Based on the MassGen article, this could be a disease avoidance strategy. Mitochondrial and RBC counts do not improve significantly overnight.

I’ve presented some strategies for improving RBC and mitochondria counts in this
article.
http://proclus.tumblr.com/post/103683212002/lets-bone-up-for-winter-fitness-running

It seems clear that a decrease in RBC turnover is related directly to inactivity, so get moving.

Here is a related article for the ladies. – Iron status and exercise http://bit.ly/1ID0C3o

The theory is cold adaptation and physical activity boosts mitochondrial and RBC counts, leading to enhanced performance.

Here is another related article. Cold temperatures, strength, and aerobic capacity http://bit.ly/1HDlfxf

High athleticism is a good strategy for turning over those old, broken RBCs.

Treadmill Performance Predicts Mortality- Google Search
http://bit.ly/17XXVMY

We really did need a new formula. Yale nomogram is givning me zero CVD risk. If you have no angina and you workout in the high athletic range, then Yale nomogram predicts no CVD risk.

This table is very handy, and provides many correlations.
http://buff.ly/1Iwr1CZ

There are many ways to scale your workout to these tables. Pulse rate and calories per hour are quite useful. There are many great web calculators and graphs to help get at these numbers. If you are running or biking up steep hills, use a stair calorie calculator. Another great trick is to use the Google bike maps to obtain changes in altitude.

Why be satisfied with single digit risk, when you can reduce it to near zero? The FIT treadmill test graphs are still behind a paywall, but the Yale nomogram will be adequate in the interim.

http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.nejm.org/na101/home/literatum/publisher/mms/journals/content/nejm/1991/nejm_1991.325.issue-12/nejm199109193251204/production/images/medium/nejm199109193251204_f1.gif&imgrefurl=http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJM199109193251204&h=348&w=500&tbnid=Olx2QdYff73kvM:&zoom=1&docid=sqogIvpVnp73QM&itg=1&ei=75c6VemvKuqIsQSGgoHIDQ&tbm=isch&ved=0CC8QMygTMBM

If you have no angina, draw a line from “None” to your METs level to obtain CVD risk. If you exceed the max, use a ruler to extrapolate to your value. 😉

One of the most fascinating thing about the FIT equation is the possibility of predicting future longevity. Such extrapolations are expected to be accurate within a range of about 20 years. When used as a lower limit, the predictive power is much higher. Coming advances favor longer lifespan. Research indicates higher METs levels correlate with lower rates of death from ALL CAUSES.

Longevity nutrition is the key to pushing the lifespan envelope at this time. The benefit of diverse approaches can add together. The benefit longevity nutrition adds to the benefit of athletic training.

BTW, here is a good article about allergy and asthma prevention.

First step on allergies: Clean up the indoor atmosphere
http://bsun.md/1Hy2gWQ

Now is the right time for more spring cleaning, which is also healthy work. Another way to beat allergies is to go out for a big workout.
