April 2012Der Sommer, in dem Linda schwimmen lernte
Roman
by Roy Jacobsen, Gabriele Haefs
Alles ändert sich im Leben des zehnjährigen Finn, als plötzlich seine kleine Halbschwester Linda mutterseelenallein vor der Tür steht – mit einem himmelblauen Koffer und jeder Menge emotionalem Sprengstoff … Es ist das Jahr 1961 – das Jahr, in dem John F. Kennedy Präsident wird, Gagarin in den Weltraum fliegt und der Bau der Berliner Mauer beginnt. Finn wächst in einer schmucklosen Vorstadt von Oslo auf, das Leben ist einfach und sozialdemokratisch. Er ist ein schmächtiger Junge, aber vielleicht der Klügste seiner Klasse. Wacker schlägt er sich mit seiner Mutter durch den Alltag, seit der Vater gestorben ist. Bis eines Tages die kleine Linda Einzug hält: Die Sechsjährige wirkt merkwürdig, pummelig ist sie, abwesend und schweigsam. Auch die Mutter, der einstige Fels in der Brandung, ist anders als sonst. Für Finn beginnt ein Sommer, den er nie vergessen wird … »Der Sommer, in dem Linda schwimmen lernte« ist ein Familienroman voller Wärme und Magie und eine ergreifende Geschichte über die große Macht des Kleinen.

Animal husbandryMay 2004Encyclopedia of Farm Animal Nutrition
by N J Benevenga, Santosh P Lall, Kelvin J McCracken, Hussain M Omed, Roger F E Axford. Edited by Malcolm F Fuller.
The Encyclopedia of Farm Animal Nutrition deals with the whole of farm animal nutrition, embracing a wide range of disciplines, including physiology, biochemistry, veterinary medicine and feed technology.The encyclopedia contains approximately 2000 entries from 90 contributors. These entries range from short definitions to more discursive articles, all entries are fully cross-referenced to aid further research.The encyclopedia covers every type of farm animal found in both developing and developed countries, including cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, goats, horses, fish, deer, buffaloes, rabbits and camelids, as well as ducks, turkeys, ostriches and other birds.Sample Entries: Acylglycerol, A form of lipid made up of one glycerol molecule combined with three individual (not necessarily identical) fatty acid molecules attached to the glycerol by ester bonds. Acylglycerols form part of the neutral lipid fraction.Free fatty acids (FFAs), Also called non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs), fatty acids that are not esterified to glycerol or another alcohol such as choline or cholesterol. In blood plasma or serum, FFAs are really not free but bound to plasma albumin.Locust bean, Properly the fruit of the African locust bean tree (Parkia filicoidea) but the name is frequently applied to the fruit of the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua). The latter originated in the eastern Mediterranean region and is also found in the subtropics. The fruits are thick, fleshy (more so in the carob) pods each containing about a dozen seeds. The seeds are tough and must be crushed before feeding. The resulting meal has a high sugar and energy content and is very palatable but is low in protein (42-54 g kg-1).Oyster Shell, Oyster shells are almost pure calcium carbonate (95-99%) and are good sources of calcium for all classes of animals. Clam shells, conch shells, coral and coral sand can all be used for feeding. Shells that have been ground to coarse grit tend to be more palatable to laying hens and help grain digestion in the gizzard, as well as producing strong eggshells. For laying hens the shells should be ground to 0.5-2.0 mm and mixed 2:1 with finely ground limestone.Pacu, A commercially important freshwater fish native to the rivers of Brazil. This large migratory fish reaches 60 cm in length and is a scavenger that eats vegetation, mostly of fruit that falls into the water as well as an occasional small fish or insect. Pacu is one of the first native fish species to be successfully cultured in Brazil. A market size of 1-2 kg can be attained in 18-20 month at water temperatures of 22-280 C.

2022Coping Better with Cancer Therapy
Improved quality of life with the right vitamins and minerals
by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Klaus Kisters
Cancer patients often suffer from malnutrition. Not only do they lack energy-providing macronutrients such as protein, fats and carbohydrates, they particularly lack the micronutrients that regulate the metabolism. Micronutrients such as vitamin D, selenium, L-carnitine, omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin C significantly contribute to supporting the immune system of cancer patients, reducing inflammatory processes, alleviating the side effects of cancer therapy, and improving their quality of life. This patient guide provides information about the relationship between cancer, malnutrition, micronutrient deficiencies, the influence of cancer therapeutics on micronutrient balance, and how cancer patients can support their therapy and improve their quality of life with a controlled intake of micronutrient

2021Micronutrient Depleters: Cholesterol-lowering Drugs
Things to know about medicines and micronutrients
by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Klaus Kisters
Elevated blood lipid levels are among the major risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. The class of substances most commonly used for lowering blood lipids is the type of cholesterol-lowering drug known as statins. Taking cholesterol-lowering drugs can lead to disruption of the coenzyme Q10 balance and muscle metabolism. In addition, statin therapy increases the need for selenium, vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins and L-carnitine. This guide provides patients with important medical information about the interactions of their medicines with these micronutrients. This way, patients can optimise their treatment, reduce the side effects of their medication, and improve their quality of life!
