Herniated Disk and Back Pain
The disk at the back spinal column divides the skeletal structures. Disk does not compose blood vessels or nerves like other elements of the skeletal structure. Instead, disks are made up of fat, water, and tissues that connect to the skeletal structure. During all hours of the day, the disks leak water, which is caused from forces of gravity. For instance, when we sit it is a gravity force in action, which one might think that it takes little effort to sit, but contrary to the notion, it is adding a lot of weight to the spine and disk.
The disk restores water that has leaked out during the day, yet the water is restored at slower paces. Fat and water is balanced in the disk, yet when it is not it causes a person to shrink height. Fat and water inside disks are thick, yet when a person starts aging, the substances begin to thin. When fat and water begins to thin, it can lead to osteoarthritis. Thinning water and fat of the disk is also the leading cause of back pain, especially at the lower region.

Is Your Multivitamin Toxic?
In episode #33 of the second season of Crime Scene Investigator a woman poisons her husband with the chemical sodium selenite. Strange as it may sound this exotic murder weapon is found listed as a “nutrient” on the labels of most mass market vitamins. In fact, most mass market vitamins contain chemicals which the Environmental Protection Agency does not allow in our public drinking water above 50 parts per billion. According to the EPA’s -Maximum Contaminant Level standards (MCL) the highest allowable level of selenium in public drinking water is 50 parts per billion. To get a sense of how small an allowable limit this is, 50 part per billion is equivalent to a tablespoon of water in an olympic-size swimming pool or 25 seconds of time in approximately 16 years.
How can vitamin manufacturers advertise something as being a “nutrient” when the EPA – out of concern for our health – has barred it from our drinking water at all but infinitesimal levels? Has sodium selenite really been shown to be toxic? A brief perusal of toxicology reports from the Hazardous Substances Databank (toxnet.nlm.nih.gov) and PUBMED (pubmed.gov) shows that sodium selenite can be carcinogenic, genotoxic and may cause reproductive and developmental problems in animals and humans.
