Taurine is essential to fetal & new born central nervous system development. The infant cannot initially manufacture taurine & must obtain taurine from its mother's milk.

Taurine plays a variety of roles in the normal functioning of the brain, heart, gallbladder, eyes, & vascular system. It is the most important & abundant free amino acid in your heart & contributes to your heart muscles' contractility & regulation of its rhythm.

Taurine acts as a neurotransmitter in your brain where it is the second most abundant amino acid. It also protects & stabilizes the brain cells' fragile membranes. It is an inhibitory calming neurotransmitter.

Taurine acts by regulating the sodium & potassium concentration in the cells & the magnesium level between the cells. This has everything to do with the electrical activity of the cells & subsequent communication between cells. By this mechanism, it has anti-anxiety & anti-convulsant activity

Taurine is found in high concentrations in your eyes & is the most abundant amino acid in your retina.

Taurine is known to re-invigorate the natural killer cells of your immune system & to stimulate the release of the immune substance, Interleukin-1.

Tea Tree Oil was used by aborigine tribes for thousands of years as a healing plant, crushing the leaves into mudpacks to treat cuts and skin infections. Stories were told of a magical, healing lagoon, in which the local tribe bathed as a treatment for wounds, burns and other ailments. In fact, it was a pond into which tea tree leaves had fallen, creating a naturally antiseptic bath.

Famous British explorer Captain Cook is held as the man responsible for the name 'tea tree'. In 1770 when he and his men landed at Botany Bay, Cook brewed the leaves of the tree for his men to drink to prevent scurvy.

As early as 1923, clinical trials in Australia began to provide scientific evidence for tea tree's antiseptic and bactericidal properties. Its 'cure-all' effects made it standard issue in the first aid kits of the Australian Army and Navy during World War II.

Nowadays you will find that virtually every Australian household has a bottle of tea tree oil in the medicine cabinet, with recent clinical trials confirming the efficacy of tea tree oil with skin conditions and fungal infections. The antiseptic, germicide, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial immune-boosting qualities of tea tree oil mean that it may be applied to a huge range of health conditions. Additionally, the antiseptic benefits of the oil allow its use as a natural cleaner and disinfectant in the household environment.

[Dr. Schulze]

Tea tree oil is an antibacterial and antifungal; it's also very effective as an anti-viral. Do not use it full-strength. Use a solution of 10% tea tree oil and 90% jojoba oil. A little tea tree oil over that area afterwards is a little more soothing and anti-inflammatory and that works very nice too. You can scrub that in, also.

Tension headache is generally described as a bilateral dull ache, pressure or cap-like pain that is usually located in the forehead, neck and shoulder regions. The headache typically occurs from two to seven days a week and can last from one hour to all day; a small proportion of tension headache sufferers have continuous headache.

Tension headaches are often associated with allergies or food sensitivities.

You have probably heard of the hormone, "testosterone" and probably assumed from any conversation you may have heard about it that it's a male sex hormone. The assumption would therefore follow that its main clinical use would be associated with male hormone deficiency or imbalance. But in order to put testosterone in proper perspective, we need to stop thinking of it in terms of sex. While this is obviously one of its important roles, there is much more to this remarkable hormone than that. Testosterone is a metabolic powerhouse of amazing versatility. It is one of the major regulators of sugar, fat, and protein metabolism. In other words, testosterone is a very important key to good health and long life. Ample research now indicates that testosterone is our most neglected hormone, and when it's properly used is a marvelous adjunct in the fight against aging-in both sexes.

The thymus begins to shrink in our teen years, gradually decreasing to a fraction of its former size as we age. The thymus hormones - which cause disease-fighting T-cells to mature, decline with the shriveling of the thymus gland.

The thymus gland is associated with the Triple Warmer Meridian of the Fire Element, for which the Chinese Five-Element Law (used in acupuncture and meridian therapy) ascribes emotions such as despair, despondency, loneliness, hopelessness, etc.

(One) lack of sufficient iodine in the diet, so that the thyroid cannot obtain enough to manufacture thyroxine, or (two) some disorder of the body which creates a demand for more thyroxine than the gland can manufacture."

I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives.

These and other symptoms typically appear before the age of 18 and the condition occurs in all ethnic groups with males affected 3 to 4 times more often than females. Although the symptoms of TS vary from person to person and range from very mild to severe, the majority of cases fall into the mild category. Associated conditions can include obsessivity, attentional problems and impulsiveness.

Most people with TS lead productive lives and participate in all professions. Increased public understanding and tolerance of TS symptoms are of paramount importance to people with Tourette Syndrome.

• Triamcinolone is in a class of drugs called steroids. Triamcinolone reduces swelling and decreases your body's immune response.
• Triamcinolone is used to treat many different conditions. It is used to treat endocrine (hormonal) disorders when the body does not produce enough of its own steroids. It is also used to treat many immune and allergic disorders, such as arthritis, lupus, severe psoriasis, severe asthma, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's disease.

There are two types of trophoblast cells: the cytotrophoblast and the syncytiotrophoblast. The cytotrophoblast functions in sticking to the uterine wall and then using proteolytic enzymes to extend into the uterus. Once extended into the uterus the uterine blood vessels are then revised so that maternal blood can be in contact with the vessels of the fetus. The syncytiotrophoblast just continues the extension of the embryo into the uterus. The trophoblast also forms part of the chorion which, along with the placenta, is pivotal in the embryo-mother relationship. As far as the timing of trophoblast formation, it must be well developed within the first 7 days of embryonic maturation because at this time the embryo must implant into the uterine wall in order to begin receiving nutrients from the mother.

Nutrients and oxygen are delievered to the developing embryo which will eventually deplete its reserve of energy provided by the yolk inside the egg, so it is important for the trophoblast to develop soon.

The trophoblast is determined early because it is a type of precurser for several other cells, such as the placenta.

Tungsten, also known as wolfram, is a hard, heavy gray-white metallic element found in wolframite and scheelite ores. It is primarily used as a carbide to harden metal-cutting tools and as an alloying agent in steelmaking. It is also used in electric contact points and lamp filaments. In pure form, tungsten can be forged, spun, drawn and extruded. The word tungsten is rooted in the Norse word "thungr-steinn," which means heavy stone. Tungsten has low density, good thermal and electrical conductivity and high-temperature strength.

Turner Syndrome is caused by the complete or partial absence of one of the two X chromosomes normally found in women.

Turner Syndrome is not associated with any environmental or any other factors generally associated with genetic problems. Despite many efforts, no real causes have been found to be linked to this condition. It appear be a random event that can happen to anyone.
