The Pain-Killer Addiction Cycle
By Buy Tramadol
Chy King asked:
It’s not just meth or heroin or even marijuana that’s becoming a grave threat to society. Even pain killers have joined the list.
The increasing abuse and addiction of pain killers which are supposed to provide relief from chronic pain is common today. According to studies made in 2002 by the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse, more than two million people in America take pain killers illegally every year.
Painkiller dependency begins following the occurrence of common injuries or certain pain relief requiring health conditions and surgery. These may include having slipped and fallen, having strained a muscle, headaches or migraines, or diseases like arthritis. Having been in a car accident or recovery from surgery also requires one to take in pain killers to ease off discomfort from muscle pains and aches.
Whether it is acute, chronic or traumatic pain, medications are necessary in order to manage the pain. But the problem with this is that what starts out to be a tool for providing relief from discomfort or soreness will prove to be fatal once painkiller dependence persists.
From weeks or months after recovery from a surgical procedure or an injury is achieved, some patients continue to rely on the drug to relieve them from pain instead of learning to get by without it. Patients will then take higher doses than what was originally prescribed, because the initial dose is now believed to be inadequate for pain management. Thus, a higher dosage is deemed appropriate in order to achieve desired pain relief level.
The result? Pain does not cease, it increases as well as the need to frequently take in more amounts of painkillers. Painkiller addiction or abuse starts to progress, which will prove to be fatal for the user. Lethal effects include a damaged liver and the plausibility of going into shock once painkiller abuse is abruptly stopped.
Pain killer addiction is not a surprising phenomenon, since pain killers are classified under the label opiates. Opiates are drugs that while chemically designed to cause receptors in the brain to block pain, also produce feelings of euphoria. Once the addiction sets in, the user is trapped. What seems so harmless at first becomes potentially lethal.
There are advanced treatments being produced for Opiate Dependency. A new drug called Buprenorphine has been released into the market. It is a controlled substance that provides pain relief but is less addictive, allowing total withdrawal from all types of prescription drug use without having to replace the old addiction with another.
Following this drug therapy, pain killer users should be provided with special care so these cases do not escalate any further.

Olive Oil – Real or Fake – Who Decides?
By Buy Tramadol
Kelly Martinez asked:
The evidence is overwhelming – Real extra virgin olive oil not only enhances the taste of food but is good for you, consider the following headlines:
Olive oil ‘acts like painkiller’ – BBC Mediterranean Diet Adds Years to Your Life (high intake of … olive oil) – MedicalNewsToday.com Oleic Acid Key to Olive Oil’s Anti-Cancer Effect – Reuters.com
However, there is a dark side – fraud in the olive oil marketplace:
Olive oil’s slippery supply line – denverpost.com Extra Virgin Olive Oil – Are You Getting What You Pay For? – ABC News 7Online “A clear case of fraud ….. almost all of the virgin and extra virgin olive oil produced by large commercial Italian olive oil plants” Italianfood.about.com “of 73 olive oils … in the U.S. Only 4 per cent were pure olive oil. The rest were adulterated” – New York Times
The health benefits of extra virgin olive oil only apply to real extra virgin olive oil and not to fraudulently mislabeled products.
As most olive oil consumers know, the price of real extra virgin olive oil has risen dramatically. At the same time the quality of the products being offered has deteriorated dramatically. Logic would dictate that a significant percentage of olive oil consumers would prefer real extra virgin olive oil instead of the over-priced, mislabeled and adulterated products that have flooded the market.
However the olive oil consumer’s freedom to choose their product is limited to what is actually offered.
Food importers, distributors. brokers and retailers essentially decide between two types of products when it comes to the distribution of olive oil: A) A cheap mixed product or B) Real extra virgin olive oil:
A) Mixed products have no guarantee of quality, the paperwork may say ‘extra virgin olive oil’ but what is in the bottle is pomace, canola or some other cheap refined oil. Mixed products have no quality stated or implied, they are entirely price sensitive. So the distributor, broker, importer or retailer needs to constantly offer either the cheapest product or be very close to it for fear that at some point their supply will disappear and they will be undersold due to the market realities of working with this type of product.
This is where the consumer gets cheated – the labeling does not accurately reflect what is in the bottle. Take for example ‘light olive oil’ – what is ‘light’ olive oil? Olive oil made from ‘light’ olives? Light olive oil is 95% pomace, canola or some other cheap oil mixed in with 5% virgin olive oil. It stretches the imagination to think that olive oil consumers demand this type of product.
B) Real extra virgin olive oil obviously costs more to produce than the cheap, mixed products. But olive oil consumers benefit because they get what they pay for – the product. Real extra virgin olive oil is always that – real extra virgin olive oil – the product, the quality does not vary. Olive oil consumers always get what they want and what they pay for – the flavor enhancing attributes and all of the health benefits of real extra virgin olive oil.
It should be noted that due to current market factors, the price difference between real extra virgin olive oil and the cheap mixes has pretty much closed and in some cases is now inverted. Real extra virgin olive oil being less expensive than the cheap mixes.
So, who gets to decide what olive oil consumers consume?
We believe that this decision belongs to the consumer. Olive oil consumers should demand real extra virgin olive oil.

Alcohol Dependency and Alcoholic Liver Disease
By Buy Tramadol
Graham West asked:
People who drink alcohol regularly will acquire a tolerance to the alcohol as their liver adapts and increases the enzymes that are used to break down the alcohol.? In heavy drinkers, the levels of the liver enzymes can increase threefold.
Since the liver then breaks up the alcohol faster, the drinker requires more alcohol to have the same effect.
A product of the alcohol breakdown is called ethanal, and it is a toxic chemical that interacts with molecules in the body (like protein) causing damage to liver, and can, in extreme cases lead to alcoholic liver disease.
The damage caused by over-drinking can lead to damage in a variety of organs and tissues of the body, including the brain, liver, blood vessels etc.?? If the drinker continues, the damage may become irreversible and ultimately cause death.
Alcoholic liver disease has a number of stages associated with it. ?
One of the first stages is fatty liver, in which fat in the liver causes swelling because the cells become bloated with fat droplets and plasma proteins.? In the early stages of fatty liver, the liver can repair itself if given the change.? Stopping drinking can give the liver that time, and within a few weeks, the fatty liver is reversed.? However, if the person continues to drink, the damage becomes irreversible.? As cells in the liver die off or become damaged, the liver becomes fibrous and swollen.? Jaundice can follow (where skin and whites of the eyes become yellow) and hepatitis.? Left to continue its course of self-destruction, the liver can develop cirrhosis.
Cirrhosis of the liver occurs as more and more fibrous tissue replaces the cells in the liver, until the point comes when the liver can no longer function.? Although cirrhosis is not reversible, the progress of the disease can be stopped if the patient stops drinking.? However, by this time, many people are too addicted to stop, and even the threat of death is not enough.
The problem with alcohol is that it is extremely addictive, and heavy users become dependent on it.? Alcohol dependence can be spotted by the following sign:
Daily consumption of alcohol, increased tolerance to the effects of alcohol, high levels of blood alcohol with little sign of being drunk, compulsive drinking.
