The p38 MAP kinase activation would be mediated by the inflammatory
cytokines from the visceral adipose tissue (VAT). Also a high fat (low
carb) diet would also lead to the hyperketonemia which is associated
with accelerated lipid peroxidation.

Can we combine VAT(please clear, is it VAT--excessive visceral adipose
tissues or excessive fat store in VAT--greter visceral adiposity),
glycated substances and absorbed fats which may encourage inflammatory
responses( as per other topics) as causes to systemic inflammatory
responses in diabetics?

Btw, whether sugar, carbs, triglycirides(glyceral part)(other are Mg
and NaCl) attract and absorb water in intestines relieving from
constipation and resulting into clear motions and increase motility?

It is the inflammatory cytokines produced by the visceral adipose
tissue (VAT) that promote vascular inflammation thereby causing
increased insulin resistance.

I think those were for intravascular glycations?

Can't above other conditions/factors add to such inflamation?

They are hygroscopic..somewhat may act as MOM acts?

Whether bile is hygroscopic? Can bile's abnormal secretion(less) in
intestine make a person constipated, lazy esp. in morning, sleeping
more, waking late etc.? Two aspects may be related, abnormal bile
comong from liver and abnormal secretion from gall bladder(can't say
about abnormal re-absorption)?

Can gum diseases in diabetic be due to cell's swelling interfering in
blood flow and supply resulting into necrosis?

Whether VAT as you mention, is increase of visceral adipose tissues or
greater adiposity/fat stores in visceral adipose tissues?

Whether soluble or not solubles fibers are also hygroscopic or releases
some chemicals in intestines?

Can abnormal or obstructed flow of bile from liver to intestine make a
person lazy, more sleepy, waking late etc.?

I feel abnormalities in bile flow are related to many conditions
couldn't yet evalued?

Which out of bile and gastric acid ir related to either unclear or
clear motions? Billary diahrria is thought?

In the type 2 diabetic, it is due in part to the inflammatory cytokines
from viseral adipose tissue (VAT).

The glycosylations are happening everywhere and not just
intravascularly.

VAT is simply visceral adipose tissue which can be quantified by
measuring waist circumference.

Soluble fiber in the diet comes with its own water so that it is not
hygroscopic.

You would be wise to inform your doctor(s) about your symptoms rather
than attributing them to bile flow.

Can't they store more or less fats? Whether such store is in form of
triglyciride or fatty acids?

I was just evaulating. In ancient systems bile was of great importance,
constitutional(personality type), but I think it is not given much
importance?

Diahrria can occur when medication for resisting bile absorption is
given?

Anyway, what increased RBC Dist Width(MCV normal) indicates?

They are present to store fat **and** to release inflammatory cytokines
to cause metabolic syndrome (MetS).

It suggests there may have been some blood loss.

Swelling is one feature of inflammation. Whether more water/fluid is
brought at the site of inflammation making environment hypotonic and
swelling of cells in that area?

Will such glycosylation be reduced extravascularily but increased
intravascularily on vasoconstriction or on decreased blood flow?

Can above feature is valid for all substances including water which are
filtered from capillaries? I am not considering filtring capacity but
quantity of blood flow?

Whether Non-soluble fibers are hygroscopic? Can isabgol husk absorb
bile and cause more excretion of bile with stool?

Whether composition of bile can be changed in different conditions?
Whether bile detoxfy blood?

How? Is there any relation between increase in RBC dist width,
decreased hematocrit and increased neutrophills?
Whether blood loss is compensated by water to maintain blood volume?

Can you define RBC dist width for me pls?

It is relevant to all substances that are able to freely cross through
the capillary basement membrane.

Yes. Such is the nature of adipose tissue even if pathological as in
the case of VAT.

Bile is not secreted from the intestine but rather comes from the
liver.

Bile is used to emulsify ingested fats to aid in their digestion.

Would suggest that there is infection **and** blood loss.

It is if blood pressure remains normal even upon standing without
abnormally elevated heart rate.

It is the range in RBC widths that would include 90% of all red bloods
cells (RBCs).

Will glucose or even water be filtered lesser in tatal quantity from
capalliries, if blood flow is reduced due to vasocontriction?

Yes but total blood flow can be reduced due to vsoconstriction? Whether
total filteration can't be also dependant and proportionate to total
blood flow in any area?

Can they store more or less fats in quantity? Can they be substancially

It is well known. Anyway,

"Isabgol (also Sat-Isabgol or Isapgol), is the Indian term for psyllium
seed husks (not a trademark). Isabgol is used for constipation and
irritable bowel syndrome. A few brand names are "B. G. Telephone Brand
Sat-Isabgol", "Deer Brand Sat Isabgol" and "Dabur Sat Isabgol".

Isabgol is also avaiable internationally in Indian shops and markets,
but as it is typically sold as isabgol rather than psyllium, many
people are not aware of that. Being a generic product, it is
significantly cheaper than similar products sold in pharmacies. Isabgol
(psyllium) is the active ingredient of the American product Metamucil.

Yes but if its composition and secreted quantity can be variable due to
different type of fats/foods?

Whether its higher reading tells abnormal macrocytic size and shape of
RBCs?

Whether some higher reading of RDW, low Hct and some higher neutrophils
readin(may be subclinically higher but still within commonly indicated
normal range)gs can be common in people with persisting hyperglycemia
and IR?

Transient events are not clinically meaningful in chronic disease such

Wiser to get rid of the VAT rather than dwell on it.

Am familiar with psyllium. And, yes, it can help to lower cholesterol
by slowing down recovery of bile salts increasing losses in stool.

Bile production and release into the intestine is stimulated by
ingested fats.

Higher RDWs can be associated with abnormal forms/shapes.

Can variation in osmotic pressure of capaliries effect trans-capillary
movements of insulin?

Yes, but can't there be persistance of such events due to persisting
hyperglycemia?

It is indicative that butter fat/pure ghee attract more bile, so while
increasing cholestreol it also excrete more bile resulting into
cholestreol's beneficial roles as well controlling their levels?

Whether butterfat/pure ghee stimulate comparatively more bile than
begetable oils?

Can it be secretated in intestine less or more concentrated?

Will such RBCs be macrocytic/megablastic?

Can low Hct or hypotonicity of blood increase RTWs?

Whether swelled cells in vascular wall or circulating attracts
inflammatory response or oxidative mechanism?

They are often known as schizocytes.

Blood loss with normal production of red cells by the bone marrow to
bring the Hct back up would typically increase RDW.

When increased O2 levels can effect size and numbers of blood vessels
supplying to tissues as local blood flow control, hyperglycemia may
also do that--by reduced blood flow?

Can't any fiber, which can absorb bile and enable more of its excretion

A fat/puffy person can look of different shape?

Btw, can you tell differenciating factors between puffy,flaby and obese

Whether glysylated hemoglobin and elevated circulating lipid levels can

Whether alkalizers can oppose inflammatory responses in view of acidity
is linked to control bacterias as in intestines?

It does not directly. Indeed, bile is largely comprised of

What is the fate of cholesterol in bile?

What causes a person to look either puffy or flaby or obese?

See **emphasis** above.

It is reabsorbed.

Overeating.

Without a specific immune response, the answer would be "no."

Sorry, your awnser is not clear to me. I meant buuer fat/pure ghee
attract more bile secretions in intestines not bile absorption?
Possibily, more the bile synthesis in liver and secretion in
intestines, comparatively more can be its excretion esp. when blood
cholesterol levels are higher?

Whether inflammatory responces preceed infectious immune response?


Btw whether occasional or excessive eaters in other species as
honeu-bees are diabetic?

It served to help you understand why I wrote to comment how you had
confused butter fat with dietary fiber. The former does not result in
the excretion of more cholesterol for any cholesterol-lower benefit as
compared to the latter.

I have not confused about butter with fibers. These are two different
things. I thought, Butter may promote more bile secretion in intestines
so more of its excretion whereas fiber can absorb more bile resulting
more of its excretion in stool.

Bile secretion occurs **before** digestion and absorption of fats such
as butter.

Do our body benefits from natural cycle of cholesterol or any other
food form intake to excretion or by less intake oand lesser
excretion/reabsorption?

To deviate from naturally followed practices may be sometimes improper
as we are not understanding everything absolutely, clearly and
completely. As noone can thing any such deviations--right or wrong?

Our body benefits from an optimal intake amount which is by GOD's
design and which HE calls an omer:

The other thought;

Can excess glucose in blood cause any blood substances sticky,
aggregate, or club, resuting into some restriction in transcapillary
movement of insulin etc.?

Can hyprglycemia effect changes in endothelliul cells junctution in
capillaries which may restrict normal movement of insulin into tissues?

Is it not essential to body?
"Function
Cholesterol is required to build and maintain cell membranes; it makes
the membrane's fluidity - degree of viscosity - stable over wider
temperature intervals (the hydroxyl group on cholesterol interacts with
the phosphate head of the membrane, and the bulky steroid and the
hydrocarbon chain is embedded in the membrane). Some research indicates
that cholesterol may act as an antioxidant.[1] Cholesterol also aids in
the manufacture of bile (which helps digest fats), and is also
important for the metabolism of fat-soluble vitamins, including
vitamins A, D, E and K. It is the major precursor for the synthesis of
vitamin D and of the various steroid hormones (which include cortisol
and aldosterone in the adrenal glands, and the sex hormones
progesterone, the various estrogens, testosterone, and derivatives ).

Recently, cholesterol has also been implicated in cell signalling
processes, where it has been suggested that it forms lipid rafts in the
plasma membrane. It also reduces the permeability of the plasma
membrane to hydrogen ions (protons) and sodium ions.[2]

"Glycosylation Purpose
The polysaccharide chains attached to the target proteins serve various
functions. For instance, some proteins do not fold correctly unless
they are glycosylated first. Also, polysaccharides linked at the amide
nitrogen of asparagine in the protein confer stability on some secreted
glycoproteins. Experiments have shown that glycosylation in this case
is not a strict requirement for proper folding, but the unglycosylated
protein degrades quickly. Glycosylation may play a role in *cell-cell
adhesion* (a mechanism employed by cells of the immune system), as
well.

That which is readily made in the body far more in excess than is
needed for vital functions is not an essential nutrient.

Fats triggering bile secretion in intestines?

Can prolonged reduced fats intake cause some impairement in bile
synthesis, travel from liver and secretion from GB?

Until there is the continued choice to overeat leading to the formation
of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) which is the source of inflammatory
cytokines that fuel the cascading systemic inflammation that leads to
metabolic syndrome (MetS) that is the prerequisite for the development
of type-2 diabetes:

http://HeartMDPhD.com/HolySpirit/overweight.asp

Here is the way to reverse the process:

http://HeartMDPhD.com/wtloss.asp

Which now includes a million dollar guarantee:

http://MabletonGA.OurLittle.net/Guarantee

The existence of VAT concurrently with the existence of subcutaneous
adipose tissue (SAT) can not be explained by Darwin's defunct theory of
evolution but only by GOD, Creator of heaven and earth.

May GOD continue to heal our hearts with HIS living water curing our
diabetes, depression, anxiety or panic so that we can love our
neighbors a little more and LORD Jesus Christ a lot more, dear neighbor

Target cells include leukocytes which are intravascular and endothelial
cells which are vascular.

Can we get more mucus/phelgum discharge, Na/Ca or othr mineral is
instable or excess?
" Mucin
Mucus is produced by submucosal cells as well as goblet cells in the
respiratory system. It consists of mucin, a highly glycolsilated
peptide. Upon stimulation, MARPKs (myrastine-alanine rich protein
kinases) signal the binding of mucin filled vesciles to the plasma
membrane. **The fusion of the vesciles causes the release of the mucin,
which as it exchanges Ca2+ for Na+ expands up to 600 fold. The result
is a viscoelastic product of interwoven molecules called mucus.**
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucus "

Pls simplify; "The fusion of the vesciles causes the release of the
mucin, which as it exchanges Ca2+ for Na+ expands up to 600 fold."

Regulated blood flow is not overall decreased blood flow.

Changes in sputum color and consistency in a diabetic will be more
likely from infection rather than from change in mucin content.

Decreased blood flow to specific part?

In non-diabetics and in excessive quanity?

Would generally be from an obstruction if there is ischemia of that
specific part.

Infection still needs to be considered.

Ischemia is pathological.

Changes in either color or consistency of phlegm can be a marker of
underlying infection which would be injurious.

Folks with asthma are more likely to be afflicted with the airway
infections that would cause changes in either the color or consistency
of their phlegm.

An understanding of Ca++/Na+ exchange in phlegm would not help you
manage your condition.

It would be wiser for you to inform your doctor(s) about the changes in
color, consistency, and amount of your sputum.

Local long term blood flow control?

Can Local long term blood flow control become pathological?

How post nasal drip can be irritating to upper resiratory tract leading
to sore throat? Can phelgum directly irritate mucus wall of resp. tract
due to its changed composition?

Asthma can be triggered by non-infectious allergens. What is the main
reason to etting asthma?

Is it related to diabetes?

Still I want to understand pls? In one understading manipulating

discharge. Probably by vasoconstriction?

Would not cause ischemia.

That which is pathological by definition is without control.

A sore throat is a symptom of infection.

Yes but can Local long term blood flow control result into some
pathology..say by decrease/increase in size and numbers of capalliries
supply to tissues?
Can't any infectious agent be attracted by some instabilities in body
or in its secretions, which can be real cause of getting infection?

What causes productive cough and dry cough?

How taking steam or drinking hot water can promote productive cough or
expectoration?

Pls tell me more about infection with or without fever?

Why such decrease/increase in size and numbers of blood vessels
supplying the tissues can't be pathological?

Can't such blood flow variations be pathological?

Local blood flow control is normal physiology.

Again, it is normal physiology.

Can such changes cause a person becoming habitual of changed long term
regulation and present somewhat withdrawl symptoms?

Whether Rosacea or reddened face of people living on high altitude is
as a result of long term local blood flow regulation?

No.

This likely has more to do with UV radiation exposure.

How a person can react to sudden reversal of changed long term blood
flow regulation, say by coming to plains from high altitude?

I think low O2 levels at higher altitude can cause increase in size and
numbers of arteries supplying to tissues to enhance normal O2 to
tissues. I given impact on reversing such effect previously from a
quote from Textbook of Medical Physiology b guyton.

Our bodies are wonderfully made by GOD, Creator of heaven and earth.

Reddening of the face would not represent an increase in the size and
number of arteries supplying tissues.

More transluscent skin, vessels rising closer to the epidermis, etc.

Depends on the underlying cause. If UV radiation, there is tissue
damage.
