Respiratory acidosis is a condition in which a build-up of carbon dioxide in the blood produces a shift in the body's pH balance and causes the body's system to become more acidic. This condition is brought about by a problem either involving the lungs and respiratory system or signals from the brain that control breathing.…

C. Dairy farmers are now treating cows that have mastitis with antibiotics that end up in your milk and residue may lead to serious allergies. Over time, the exposure to such antibiotics causes the body to build resistance and causes further issues such as breast, prostate and colon…
Symptoms to the cow for Mad Cow Disease is very intense. The cow may show a lot of nervousness and aggression which change the attitude and behavior of the animal. There will be abnormal posture and will cause a lot of coordination problems. The disease of the cow will cause them to reduce milk production. In addition, the cattle will not be able to nurse their young and the farmers will lose their production of calves and profits. Eventually severe moaning will set in and lead to death.(www.cattle.com)…
Acidosis and alkalosis are terms used to describe the abnormal conditions that result from an excess of acid or alkali (base) within the blood. Normal blood pH must be maintained within a narrow range of 7.35-7.45 to ensure the proper functioning of metabolic processes and the delivery of the right amount of oxygen to tissues. Acidosis refers to an excess of acid in the blood that causes the pH to fall below 7.35, and alkalosis refers to an excess of base in the blood that causes the pH to rise above 7.45. Many conditions and diseases can interfere with pH control in the body and cause a person 's blood pH to fall outside of healthy limits.…
This is caused by a lack of lactose. Milk and milk products are the only source of lactose in the diet. When people who are lactose intolerant take in milk and milk products they can experience indigestion, stomach cramps, wind and diarrhoea.…
Lactose intolerance is a health factor that influence people’s diet and those who have lactose intolerance are at a high risk to not receive the necessary nutrients intake that supply the body to be strong and healthy such as calcium and vitamin D.…
Galactosemia is a rare congenital disorder which affects the body's inability to convert galactose into glucose. Galactose is a type of sugar, which is a breakdown product of lactose. Lactose is found in milk and milk products, including breast milk. Given that the galactose can not be broken down, it builds up in the body and acts as a poison that can cause serious damage to its carrier("galactosemia"). "As milk is important to a baby's diet, early diagnosis is essential to avoid lifelong problems from this potentially fatal disorder "(Chung). This research paper provides information about the genetic part of Galactosemia, the cause, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment.…
Lactose Intolerance is caused by the lactose not being digested. The small intestine produces the enzyme lactase which digests milk sugar, lactose. In people that are lactose intolerant their small intestine does not produce to enough lactase to digest the amount of lactose digested. There are three main types of Lactose Intolerance ("Lactose Intolerance Symptoms, Causes, Treatments, Tests").…
Students should be able to go out for lunch. Students should be able to go out for lunch because they want to eat with friends they do not see often. Also, students cannot see friends from other schools, so they get lonely. Plus, if people could go out with friends it could help build their relationship. In addition, a lot of students do not bring lunch so they might want to go home for lunch. In a similar way people continue to go home for lunch, so they can eat home cooked meals with relatives. Plus, this helps families reconnect as some families do not see each other a lot. Next students are allergic or told not to eat some foods from the cafeteria as some cafeterias do not provide vegan, halal, gluten-free, or lactose-free foods, and…
Lactose Intolerance is an intestinal condition caused by insufficient synthesis of the intestinal enzyme lactase needed to break down lactose (Keith, Nichols, Reed, Kafer, Miller 2011). So what does this exactly mean? People with lactose intolerance have trouble digesting lactose, the natural sugar found in milk and milk products. Undigested lactose can upset the stomach and cause diarrhea. Most people who are lactose intolerant are able to consume some lactose without symptoms. However, many people who are (or think they are) lactose intolerant avoid dairy products and do not consume enough calcium and vitamin D, which are nutrients critical to bone growth and development. A person born with lactose intolerance cannot eat or drink anything with lactose. Approximately 75% of the world’s population loses the ability to digest lactose at some point, while others can digest lactose into adulthood. In very rare cases, lactose intolerance can happen in newborns (Pakdaman, Udani, Molina, Shahini 2016). The intolerance…
The most common allergy among infants and young children, cow milk allergies are prevalent among 2.5 percent of children younger than three. Although around 80 percent of children outgrow their allergy by the time they are sixteen, it still remains in many children and adults. Unfortunately for those people, milk makes up an ingredient in many popular foods and they are unable to enjoy the same experiences as their friends and family. Milk allergies are not to be confused with lactose intolerance, as they are far more serious and dangerous to one’s health. Lactose intolerance is when one’s digestive system simply cannot handle milk, so it responds with bloating and discomfort. With milk allergies, the immune system conducts an abnormal response to the ingestion of milk, or products containing milk, and it can sometimes be life-threatening.…
