Child's brain development before birth...1
Posted in 2015

The fetal nervous system — i.e., your baby's brain and spinal cord — is one of the very first systems to develop. In fact, it's making big strides before you even know you're pregnant.

The parts of your baby's brain

Before we get into the science of fetal brain development, here's a quick anatomy primer on your baby's brain. There are five different regions we're familiar with, each responsible for different functions:
  1. Cerebrum: This is the biggest part of the brain, and it's responsible for thinking, remembering and feeling. This is where the cerebral cortex and its various lobes (including the frontal and temporal lobes) reside.
  2. Cerebellum: The area in charge of motor control.
  3. Brain stem: The engine driving many of your baby's most vital functions, including heart rate, breathing and blood pressure.
  4. Pituitary gland: This pea-sized gland releases hormones into your body that are responsible for growth, metabolism and more.
  5. Hypothalamus: This area deals with body temperature, hunger, thirst, sleep and emotions.
With the biology lesson out of the way, read on to find out how and when these various parts start developing.

Benefits of Minerals ..1 Brought to U.... http://successgain.us       and      http://successgain.info 2.... Major vs. Trace Minerals Minerals that are considered vital to good health, fitness, and mental well-being are divided into two primary groups: major minerals and trace minerals. Major minerals are considered minerals that the body requires in relatively large amounts and include calcium, chloride, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and sodium, and sulfur. The human body requires major minerals in larger quantities and are considered macro-minerals. On the other hand, trace minerals are required by the human body in much lower quantities and are considered micro-minerals. Trace minerals include chromium, copper, iodine, fluorine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, and zinc. In both cases, consuming an adequate level of both the major and trace minerals is required for good health and wellness. For a more detailed discussion related to each of the major

It’s required for muscle contraction, proper heart function, and the transmission of nerve signals. It’s also needed by a few enzymes, including one that helps your body turn carbohydrates into energy. The best sources of potassium are fruits and vegetables. The most common cause of potassium deficiency is excessive fluid loss. Examples can include extended vomiting, kidney disease, or the use of certain medications such as diuretics. Symptoms of potassium deficiency include muscle cramping and weakness. Other symptoms show up as constipation, bloating, or abdominal pain caused by paralysis of the intestines. Severe potassium deficiency can cause paralysis of the muscles or irregular heart rhythms that may lead to death. 7... Zinc deficiency Zinc plays a role in many aspects of the bod
