This week’s assignment was to write an essay discussing the pros and cons of the Kelo decision as it pertains to local economic development. The city of New London, Connecticut, in 2000, agreed on a development plan that was proposed to increase taxes, jobs and invigorate a troubled city that had fallen on hard economic times. When the city heard that Pfizer, a pharmaceutical company had interest in opening a research facility on the outer limits of the Fort Trumbull neighborhood, they then set out and began deliberating on redevelopment plans for the neighborhood to promote new economic activities for the area.

Lactase is an enzyme found in the digestive system. It is essential to the complete digestion of sugar in whole milk and milk products. Lactase specifically breaks down lactose, a complex sugar. Lactase cannot be absorbed by the body unless it is broken down by lactase into glucose and galactose. According to webMD, “Lacking lactase in their intestines, a person consuming dairy products may experience the symptoms of lactose intolerance…Abdominal cramping, flatulence (gas) and diarrhea can occur when a lactose intolerant person consumes milk products.” ("Lactase Enzyme oral : Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Pictures, Warnings & Dosing - WebMD", n.d.) Lactase is not recommended for use in CHILDREN younger than 4 years of age. Safety and effectiveness in this age group have not been confirmed. (Kluwer, 2014)

Pharmaceuticals are arguably one of the most contentious of all goods and services traded in the market. While medicines are as much a necessity as foods and water, they require more technical expertise and official approbation in the manufacture. Above all, they carry a moral weight that most market products do not (The Economist, 2014). This idea of moral can be linked to the recurring debate over whether a good health (which is represented by medicines, in this case) should be considered a basic human right, or just a normal commodity. A large portion of such controversy actually lies in an existence of drug patents: should we promote for longer-lasting patents or should we have their duration shortened?

Starch is more easily digested than cellulose. Grains are easy to digest as they are 60-80% starch. A recent study conducted by Sharon R. Bullimore et al.
Grains are detrimental says many experts wherein it includes lectin, which can lead to intestinal damage, infection and other diseases. In addition, it includes phytic acid which is stripping off many nutrition and vitamin supplements in
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disorder that damages the lungs and digestive system. This disease can be life-threatening. Life expectancy of this disease has improved over many years. In the article “Exercise programs for children with cystic fibrosis: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials”, author Nancy Van Doorn reviews evidence of aerobic, strength, and anaerobic exercise in relation to improving pulmonary function in children. Studies were done with least to severe cases of cystic fibrosis in patients.. Different forms of exercising were examined, such as running, weight strengthening, treadmills, and etc. Aerobics and resistance training seemed to yield the best results for children suffering with mild or severe cystic
Ketogenic diets, often called low-carbohydrate (low carb is slang), seem to be the latest diet trend. There are many different forms, all varying in different degrees. Ketogenic diets focus primarily on the limited intake of carbohydrates in the food pyramid. In order to clearly understand ketogenic diets, one must start with the basics-what are ketones and where are ketones found and produced???
As many people around the world value health, setting limits does not seem to be a playing factor in dieting. Weight loss foods and meals have existed to support those who want to lose the extra pounds and those people are going beyond their bodies limits to maintain homeostasis; the body's ability to maintain a stable internal environment. One of the most popular and widely known ways of dieting are ketone diets, or their more precise name, ketogenic diets. Extreme dieting such as this consists of committing to a low carb diet where the liver produces ketones to be used as energy. The thought behind the body living off of ketones is controversial as to whether it is causing more harm to the body and brain than good, but all in all, the cons seem to outweigh the pros.

What is fermentation? In biochemical term, Standbury (1984) defined fermentation as the catabolism process of organic compound which generate energy. This fermentation process has been used in a lot of fields, such as food preservation, biomass, enzyme production, waste management, antibiotics etc. it is true that nowadays, fermentation products cannot be separated with our life, especially fermented food. The development of fermentation industry started before 1900 with the production of fermented beverages and food (Standbury, 1984).
