Human growth hormone (HGH) is produced by the pituitary gland, which is a pea-sized organ located at the base of the brain. In addition to spurring childhood growth, it also helps regulate: Fat metabolism Bone growth Muscle growth Brain function Blood sugar Sleep Memory As we age, however, the amount of HGH produced by the pituitary gland decreases. This has prompted an interest in producing the hormone synthetically to treat aging or age-related health issues. But not only is there little evidence to support the claim that synthetic HGH can counteract the effects of aging, experts recommend against using human growth hormone treatments because of its associated risks. What is human growth hormone treatment used for? Growth hormone treatment involves administering injections of synthetic HGH to adults who have a growth hormone deficiency. HGH may be caused by a benign growth (tumor) on the pituitary gland or treatments such as radiation or surgery. Generally,

The brain is arguably the most important organ in the human body. It controls and coordinates actions and reactions, allows us to think and feel, and enables us to have memories and feelings—all the things that make us human. While the brain only weighs about three pounds, it is a highly complex organ made up of many parts. Years of scientific study have made it possible for scientists to identify the various areas of the brain and determine their specific functions. The following information provides a brief description of some of the major parts of the human brain. The Cranium: Covering of the Brain The brain is protected by a bony covering called the cranium. The cranium and the bones of the face make up the skull. Inside the cranium, the brain is surrounded by three layers of tissue called the meninges. The meninges include: Pia mater: The layer closest to the surface of the brain Arachnoid membrane: The middle layer of tissue Dura mater: The outer-most layer The Cerebrum: Front Pa

Bones provide the structure for our bodies. The adult human skeleton is made up of 206 bones. These include the bones of the skull, spine (vertebrae), ribs, arms, and legs. Bones are made of connective tissue reinforced with calcium and specialized bone cells. Most bones also contain bone marrow, where blood cells are made. Bones work with muscles and joints to hold our body together and support freedom of movement. This is called the musculoskeletal system. The skeleton supports and shapes the body and protects delicate internal organs such as the brain, heart, and lungs. Bones contain most of our body’s calcium supply. The body is constantly building up and breaking down bone tissue as required. Healthy bone needs a balanced diet, regular weight-bearing exercise, and the right levels of various hormones. The skeleton The human skeleton is made up of 206 bones, including bones of the: Skull – including the jaw bone Spine – cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae, sacrum, and tailbone

We never knew that the maxim, “We learn something new each day” would apply to the Covid-19 virus as well. A year into the pandemic yet, we wake up to some new piece of information about the Coronavirus. Researchers are still learning about the long-term impacts of Covid-19, and every day they figure out something new.  From Black fungus to Hypoxia, Covid-19 and comorbidities have become increasingly common. One of the latest additions to this list is the link between Covid-19 and Erectile Dysfunction. In the rest of this article, we will be taking a look into this.  Erectile Dysfunction Overview A study conducted in Italy was the first to suggest a link between Covid-19 infection and erectile dysfunction. The study was conducted on about 100 sexually active adult males out of which 25 had tested positive for Covid-19 and 75 were negative. The subjects were retrieved from an earlier study named Sex@COVID. The patients were matched based on their health factors including General Anxiety

  As vaccination drives across the globe started to give us hope of returning to normal, we were slammed by the various variants of the coronavirus. The Delta variant is perhaps the most debated variant of the lot right now. Through the rest of this blog, we’ll be looking into the Covid Delta Variant and the Delta Plus Variant. Before we learn more about the Covid Delta variant, let us try to understand what some of these terms mean.  What is a variant? Viruses constantly undergo mutations and the formation of new variants is expected. When viruses get a chance to spread like in the case of the pandemic, the virus undergoes more replications. When it replicates more, the chance that it can undergo a change or mutate increases as well. Usually, these mutations make no difference to the functioning of the virus or its ability to spread and cause infections. But sometimes, the mutations may alter the virus’s genetic material causing its properties to change. In some mutants, the transmiss
