This is part 4 of a 10-part talk

Policymakers, judges, government agency staff, lawmakers, scientists, and others must constantly balance scientific, social, economic, political, emotional and other considerations when making a decision. However, they are often “on their own” to determine the validity and applicability of scientific and technical data as they ask themselves, “How reliable is the information in front of me? What is the level of maturity of the underlying science, and can I make a sound decision based on it?”

Dennis K. McBride, Ph.D., President Emeritus and Chair of Fellows at the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies, will discuss the book, “Best Available Science,” that he co-authored with researchers from Potomac and the Institute for Regulatory Science. Led by the lead author, Alan Moghissi, this book is the culmination of three decades of insight from experts in the scientific and policy worlds, who have developed a process to enable not only scientists, but also non-scientists, to clearly and easily assess the maturity of scientific information. The book isolates scientific issues from other issues at play in policymaking. It provides a framework for understanding the validity of scientific information that can be universally understood. It gives decision makers a simple assessment system to most effectively utilize scientific information. It also separates science from topics that are outside of the purview of science. As we continue to strive for excellence in both science and policy in an ever-changing landscape, Best Available Science, is a compelling resource. It arms you with the ability to make the best decision possible with the best available information. This guide can also be used as a tool for scientists to more clearly communicate with policy makers and help them to “speak the same language.”

Dennis K. McBride, Ph.D. is President Emeritus and Chair of Fellows at the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies, a Washington area think tank dedicated to the provision of science and technology policy expertise to the administration, congress, and the judiciary. Members of the Institute remain actively engaged in the scientific disciplines for which they provide expertise. McBride is an evolutionary psychologist with an extensive background in the science of human evolution. Prior to Best Available Science, he co-authored “Quantifying Human Information Processing” (Rowman & Littlefield).

McBride is Chief Scientific Officer for Quantum Leap Innovations. In addition to being an active adjunct professor at Georgetown Universitys medical school and Public Policy Institute, he has also held appointments as professor in colleges of engineering and arts and sciences.

A general ear cleansing frequent use (up to 2-3 times daily) pH balanced product which is unique to others on the market in that it uses functional acids. While Acetic acid is widely known to be effective against yeast, the most common complication in ear problems, it is Boric Acid that the human literature claims to be the effective agent. Acetic acid is unique in its property to be effective against Pseudomonas, the culprit in swimmers ear, as well as other bacterial and microbes. It does not contain ototoxic agents such as chlorhexidine or salicylic acid found commonly in many ear products or detergents or artificial cleansing or dewaxing agents. All natural, it does not contain alcohol, dyes, or pain-killers. “DermaPet” Malacetic Otic Ear/Skin Cleanser is Hypo-allergenic. malotic

http://SpillingTheTruth.com – What is Alka-Plex and Why did Yoli include it in their products?

Alka-Plex® are a proprietary mineral complex that is a very strong, yet very safe, alkalizing agent. The granules have three properties:

1. Reduces the acidity of foods and beverages without damaging flavor;
2. Increases absorbency of key nutrients; and
3. Achieves a systemic alkaline balance in the body to improve healthy aging and athletic performance.

Alka-Plex is designated as a New Dietary Ingredient by the FDA a recognition of uniformity and safety. Due to the unique structure of Alka-Plex, this hydrophilic granule opens mucosal membranes and improves the absorption of key nutrients. Alka-Plex also appears to have a gut cleansing and improves upper digestive tract functioning.

Alka-Plex granules help balance and manage the complex and critical acid/alkaline relationship in the human body. Alka-Plex is a solution for low-grade, chronic acidosis often described as acidic stress. Over 400 peer-review articles link low-grade acidosis with aging and dozens of problems associated with the aging process.

Why would it be important for humans to have a balanced pH in blood? How does a human being maintain a balanced pH in their blood?

Yes. Maintaining pH is very important in your blood.
Blood pH is usually affected by the amount of CO2 you have in your circulating blood. More CO2 makes your blood more acidic.
The reason that your blood maintains a relatively constant pH is because many of the proteins in your body require a specific pH range to function correctly.
Take your stomach, for example. It is very acidic because the proteins that cleave fats and break your food down into simpler bits require a very low acidity to function correctly.
The same thing with proteins in your blood.
