Most people appreciate their hair as the most valuable assets especially for women. However, there are so many problems related to this precious thing nowadays such as hair loss (alopecia), dandruffs and premature greying and balding. The researcher’s team headed by Professor Markus Nothen from University of Bonn and Dr. Roland Kruse from Dusseldorf University in 2005 discovered that the main cause of alocepia is hereditary factors which either because of high androgen receptor formed or variant receptor which develops as a result of genetic change. In addition according to Hoffman (2002), “The most common form of alopecia in men is believed to be due excessive activity of androgens on the scalp where the hairs become miniaturized and pigment production is stopped.” Hamilton (1951); Hoffman (2002); Price (2003); Severi et al., (2003) claimed that conversion towards more potent testosterone is due to elevation level of 5-alpha reductase lead to common baldness. For the genetically derived phenomenon, it supposed to be totally about the hereditary cause and the other exogenous factors will be excluded. However, there are also views from proponents saying that some natural food involves in solving these hair—related problems for example emblica officinalis or amla.
Wong C. (2014) stated that amla oil helps in strengthen the hair follicles and treating dry and itchy scalp due to its high content of essential fatty acids, vitamin C, flavonoids, polyphenols and other types of minerals. Besides that, the presence of vitamin C in amla gives huge benefits in medical aspects. Vitamin C is known as Ascorbic Acid, ascorbate, Absorbicap, Ascoltin, Cebione Cevalin and Hybrin was discovered in 1928 and most widely used of all vitamins. It is ...

Dani V. (2014) suggested that consuming about 2g to 5g of vitamin C daily will reverse adrenal fatigue and back to optimal health.
Besides that, vitamin C also helps in fights dandruff or some researchers and scholars claimed as seborrhoeic dermatitis. Moreover, based on the study by Ranganathan S. and Mukhopadhyay T (2010), they concluded that dandruff is considered as more towards physiological situation whereby inflammation on the scalp is reffered to seborrhoeic dermatitis. Dandruff problem is said that it is aetiologically from weak immune system and Melinda L. S. (2013) summarizes vitamin C improves in circulation system, skin health, immune system and
As you have been informed before, the golden oil’s contents penetrate deeply which improve the scalp’s blood circulation. This will result to a healthier hair growth. Aside from better scalp blood circulation, it can instantly improve the production of keratin producing thicker and well-nourished hair strands.
Iconoclasm refers to the opposition and destruction of religious images by religious and imperial authorities. It is believed that Byzantine iconoclasm occurred in two waves, the first being during the 8th century and the second during the 9th century. There are many theories as to how and why iconoclasm started during the Byzantine Era and these will be debated. The methods and reasons of Byzantine iconoclasm will also be compared to modern day iconoclasm.
Elodea are adaptive, oxygenating aquatic plants. They utilize water and light (among others) to photosynthesize in water, and expel oxygen into their environment. However, there are ways the photosynthesis of Elodea can be affected; some ways include a fluctuation in light, temperature, and water level. This lab experiment ran on the theory that different water types could also be a factor to different photosynthetic levels. Elodea were soaked in distilled, tap, and untreated (pond) water and left for an hour under a light source. The carbon level was taken in the form of adding phenolphthalein and NaOH to the water samples after the experiment finished up. It was discovered through this lab that distilled water allowed Elodea to photosynthesize
There are countless heroes throughout literature. Their stories are all timeless and meaningful. The Alchemist, written by Paulo Coelho, is home to one of these heroes with an incredible quest. Interestingly, it is quite common to see quests and journeys throughout all literature. In the Alchemist, the protagonist, Santiago, goes through many stages of being a hero such as, call to adventure, refusal of the call, supernatural aid, crossing the threshold, and road of trials. Santiago clearly demonstrates all these stages throughout the entire novel.
In Euripides’ play The Bacchae, the ideals that were the foundation of Greek culture were called into question. Until early 400B.C.E. Athens was a society founded upon rational thinking, individuals acting for the good of the populace, and the “ideal” society. This is what scholars commonly refer to as the Hellenic age of Greek culture. As Athens is besieged by Sparta, however, the citizens find themselves questioning the ideals that they had previously lived their lives by. Euripides’ play The Bacchae shows the underlying shift in ideology of the Greek people from Hellenic (or classical), to Hellenistic; the god character Dionysus will be the example that points to the shifting Greek ideology.
Vitamin C, also known as Ascorbic Acid, has the structural formula C6H8O6. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient believed to have very important benefits to the human body and it enables the body to make efficient use of carbohydrates, fats, and protein. It is needed by the body to repair bones, teeth, and cartilage; heal wounds and scars; help the body absorb iron from certain substances, and promote a healthy immune system. Vitamin C is also needed to form collagen, which is a protein used to make skin tissue, blood vessels, ligaments, and tendons. Vitamin C is an antioxidant, meaning it protects the body’s cells against oxidation and the destructive effects of free radicals within the body. It is also believed that vitamin C helps to prevent
Vitamin C is a necessary vitamin for the body to carry out its functions properly. It is also known as ascorbic acid. It is a water-soluble nutrient that is found in some foods. It acts as an antioxidant in the body which helps to protect cells from the damage caused by free radicals, which are formed when our bodies convert the food we eat into energy. The body needs vitamin C to make collagen which is the protein required in wounds, healing. Moreover, vitamin C promotes the absorption of iron from fruits and vegetables and helps in promoting the immune system. Vitamin C is also important to protect our body from cardiovascular disease, prenatal health problems, eye disease, and skin wrinkling. We can obtain vitamin C from food and other sources.
The study investigates the custom of coquetry, accolades, compliments, commendation, tributes and praise comments in South Asian street communication. Coquetry can be explained and demarcated as advances made by male strangers toward women in the public domain, and they typically include: strengthening, gazing, staring, ogling, and unsolicited sexual and romantic comments. Coquetry is much more than just a bit of fun: it is a universal and essential aspect of human interaction. Anthropological research shows that coquetry is to be found, in some form, in all cultures and societies around the world.

Throughout human history power imbalances have been prevalent in almost every civilization. One method of controlling people, in addition to power power, is to control how much knowledge gets out to the masses. This paper examines how iconoclasm is used in the Middle East as a method of controlling popular opinions and thoughts on race,sex and many other important details of everyday life. Iconoclasm is the systemic destruction of religious or cultural pieces of artwork for political or religious reasons. The destruction of artifacts can rewrite cultural history and change opinions on how the history of a nation is perceived. This also results in extensive loss of cultural history which can never be recovered. The Middle East is of particular interest in this research paper as it has been in the news recently for such acts. Most Middle Eastern countries have Islam listed as their official religion. In Islam it is forbidden to show the face of Allah, the God of Islam, in any form of artwork. It is also seen as taboo to have any living creatures such as humans or animals depicted in a mosque, the Islamic place of worship. As such, many buildings which have been converted into mosques have been defaced to suit the proper Islamic code. One such incident of this happening is the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. Once a Roman Catholic church, it was converted into a mosque after the conquer of the Byzantine Empire by the Ottoman Turks and all mosaics depicting Jesus, His mother and saints were removed. Another popular incident attributed to iconoclasm within Middle Eastern countries include the missing nose of the Sphinx in Egypt(World Heritage Site). One confirmed incident of iconoclasm in within the past few decades is of the defacing and d...
What would you give to rid yourself of acne? What would you do? The bane of every adolescent’s existence, these red spots develop to some degree in 85% of the population between ages 12 and 25 (Lamberg). Teenagers wake up every morning, look at the mirror, and sigh at the acne on their faces and often other places on their bodies. They dread these awful things that are absolutely ugly. They get desperate and eventually, if the acne grows worse than ever before, they resort to Accutane. Accutane, also known as isotretinoin, is a medication for acne. However, despite isotretinoin’s helpfulness in controlling acne that is unresponsive to other treatments, this medication should not be used because of its harmful physical side effects, its association with psychiatric adverse effects, and its effects on reproduction.
The creation of Al Andalus is a result of conflict within the Islamic Empire, between two families, the Abbasids and the Umayyad. The conflict arose when the Abbasids started a civil war with the Umayyad’s on the premise that the Umayyad’s where putting religion after conquest. After the Umayyad’s had been slaughtered the remaining survivor Abd al-Rahman I fled through northern Africa into southern Spain where he established himself as the ruler of the land that had once belonged to the whole Umayyad empire. In the particular the creation of Al Andalus, has at one point or another been referred to as a foundation of a utopian nation. Abd al-Rahman I chose the specific land to build the palace because of the terrain, it is set between a valley and a mountain range, looking out onto the valley so that it would be visible to all and at the same time as a political move. 1 This location helped in not only separating the royalty from the common people but also showed that they were grand and overlooking the city below. The steep inclines made for ideal security measures in case of an attack upon the city the palace would have been the last line of defense.
Crime has a substantial influence on everyday life. Theories for criminal behaviour are as old as the types of behaviours themselves. Amongst these theories is the idea of anomie. The sociological notion of anomie is used as a theoretical tool to understand the intersection of social structure, culture and criminal or deviant behaviour. Although the concept of anomie theory has varied between scholars, central to the different versions of anomie theory is the premise that human are normative beings; that people think and act on the basis of commonly held beliefs and traditions. Anomie theory was popularised by the classic works of Emile Durkheim and further explored by Robert K Merton.
Vitamin C also known as ascorbic acid is needed for growth and maintenance of healthy tissues, especially skin, blood vessels, bones, gums, teeth. Vitamin C aids in resistance against infection and healing of wounds. It also helps the body absorb iron from food. Vitamin C can be found in green vegetables, potatoes, tomatoes and citrus fruits such as oranges and lemon. A lack of vitamin C can cause scurvy, iron deficiency and poor wound healing. A healthy diet should include a high amount of vitamin C because the human body cannot produce its own vitamin C.
