Cholesterol and Metabolic Health: A Critical Relation!
Cholesterol and Metabolic Health: A Critical Relation! HealthifyMe – Blog HealthifyMe – Blog – The definitive guide to weight loss, fitness and living a healthier life.
Cholesterol is a type of lipid that proteins transport via blood circulation. Your liver produces the majority of cholesterol. LDL (bad cholesterol) and HDL (good cholesterol), which comprise most of our total circulating cholesterol, only account for roughly 25%. Only foods from animals contain cholesterol; the body produces the rest. The body’s function of cholesterol […]

US Environmental Lead Says Advanced Nuclear Technology Critical to Decarbonize US and Japan
Michael Regan, after holding talks with his Japanese counterpart Akihiro Nishimura in Tokyo, told a joint news conference that nuclear energy in their countries plays a role… “I think the science tells us that we have to respond to the climate crisis with a sense of urgency and nuclear energy and nuclear technology has and can have a role in continuing with a zero emissions contribution to the climate,” he said, showing support for Japan’s recent shift toward returning to nuclear energy.
Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said last week he instructed his government to consider developing safer, smaller nuclear reactors, in a renewed emphasis on nuclear energy years after many of the country’s plants were shut down. Kishida said Japan needs to consider all options of energy mix, including nuclear, to bolster its “green transformation” effort to curb emissions of greenhouse gases and to secure stable energy supply. Japan has pledged to reach carbon neutrality by 2050…. While maintaining a 20%-22% target for nuclear energy as part of its energy mix for 2030, Japan’s government had previously insisted it was not considering building new plants or replacing aged reactors, apparently to avoid stoking criticism from a wary public. Kishida’s recent comment represents a sharp change from that stance.
Kishida asked a government panel to decide by the end of the year on its proposal for the development and construction of “new innovative reactors,” such as small modular reactors, while also considering extending operational lifespan of aging reactors.
President Joe Biden also believes that it is an “all hands on deck approach,” Regan said, adding that investments in nuclear technology and carbon capture will complement the big potential for renewable energy.
