BAKERSFIELD, CA, February 22, 2014 (Press-News.org) Debuting the perfect survival straw, the H2O Xtreme Straw Water Filter, one of the best types of survival gear available. This survival water straw is one of the most durable, innovative, and creative pieces of technology that is small enough to fit in a pocket. It is a portable filter, that filtrates all types of bacteria and germs from harmful water. Once wet, an electrostatic charge is created that not only attracts contaminants, but also electroplates them through a unique process called "Electro Chemical Oxidation Reduction".
The lifestraw effectively removes: Chlorine, Lead, Mercury, Hydrogen Sulphide, Aluminum, Arsenic, Cadmium, Chromium, Barium, plus algae, fungus, scale, sediment, Giardia and E. Coli. This filtering happens by using a combination of three micro-filters: activated charcoal, a patented high priority metal alloy that contains two dissimilar metals (with positive and negative charges).
This wide range of filtering is laboratory tested and meets all E.P.A. and F.D.A. standards across the nation. Dehydration occurs through a lack of water being in the system, and affects the amount of fluids available for the central nervous system.
This one of a kind lifestraw is ideal for hikers, missionaries, as well as hunters and campers! It is also encased in a see-through carrying case, enabling you to be able to carry toxic water purification system in your hand, while also preserving the quality of your lifestraw. Although the lifestraw is effective in removing parasites and contaminants in water, it should not be used with any other type of liquid in order to preserve the quality of the H2O Extreme Water Straw.
Fresh water isn't available at all times, and in an emergency, it is one of the most vital things for survival. Tornadoes, tsunamis, and even fires can deplete the availability of fresh drinking water at hand, and can be the most basic items for survival. Portable, and handy, having one of these in an emergency kit is one of the smartest things you can do. The H2O Extreme Water Filter is available in a dark blue color. Water is essential to your survival, so the H2O Extreme Water Straw is imperative for your safety in an emergency. Protect you and your family today from the unexpected emergencies, such as natural disasters and emergencies.

Seed-filled buoys may help restore diverse sea meadows in San Francisco Bay
2014-02-22
SAN FRANCISCO -- A pearl net filled with seedpods, tethered by a rope anchored in the coastal mud but swaying with the tide, could be an especially effective way to restore disappearing marine meadows of eelgrass, according to a new study.
The resulting crop of eelgrass grown by SF State researchers is as genetically diverse as the natural eelgrass beds from which the seeds were harvested, said Sarah Cohen, an associate professor of biology at the Romberg Tiburon Center. As eelgrass meadows are threatened by a number of human activities, restoration plans that maintain ...
Virginia Tech scientist proposes revolutionary naming system for all life on Earth
2014-02-22
A Virginia Tech researcher has developed a new way to classify and name organisms based on their genome sequence and in doing so created a universal language that scientists can use to communicate with unprecedented specificity about all life on Earth.
In a paper published in the journal PLoS ONE, Boris Vinatzer proposes moving beyond the current biological naming system to one based on the genetic sequence of each individual organism. This creates a more robust, precise, and informative name for any organism, be it a bacterium, fungus, plant, or animal.
Vinatzer, an ...
Antibody may be detectable in blood years before MS symptoms appear
2014-02-21
PHILADELPHIA – An antibody found in the blood of people with multiple sclerosis (MS) may be present long before the onset of the disease and its symptoms, according to a study released today that will be presented at the American Academy of Neurology's 66th Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, April 26 to May 3, 2014.
"If our results can be replicated in larger populations, our findings may help to detect MS earlier in a subgroup of patients," said study author Viola Biberacher, MD, with Technical University in Munich, Germany. "Finding the disease before symptoms appear ...
Selenium and vitamin E supplementation over recommended dietary intake may raise PC risk
2014-02-21
In a large clinical trial testing dietary supplements for prostate cancer (PCa) prevention, baseline selenium (Se) status (measured by toenail Se concentration), in the absence of supplementation, was not associated with prostate cancer (PCa) risk. However, when baseline toenail Se concentrations were high, supplementation with high-dose Se almost doubled the risk of high-grade PCa risk among older men, according to a new study published February 21 in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
High-dose vitamin E also more than doubled the risk high-grade PCa risk, ...
Selenium and vitamin E supplements can increase risk of prostate cancer in some men
2014-02-21
SEATTLE – A multi-center study led by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center has found that high-dose supplementation with both the trace element selenium and vitamin E increase the risk of high-grade prostate cancer. But importantly, this risk depends upon a man's selenium status before taking the supplements.
These findings, published in Journal of the National Cancer Institute, are based on data from the Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial, or SELECT, a rigorously executed, randomized and placebo-controlled trial conducted by the SWOG cancer research cooperative ...
Does a diet high in carbohydrates increase your risk of dementia?
2014-02-21
New Rochelle, NY, February 21, 2014—Even small increases in blood sugar caused by a diet high in carbohydrates can be detrimental to brain health. Recent reports in medical literature link carbohydrate calorie-rich diets to a greater risk for brain shrinkage, dementia and Alzheimer's disease, impaired cognition, and other disorders. David Perlmutter, MD, best-selling author of Grain Brain, explores this important topic in a provocative interview in Alternative and Complementary Therapies from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is available free on the Alternative ...
NASA's IRIS spots its largest solar flare

On Jan. 28, 2014, NASA's Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph, or IRIS, witnessed its strongest solar flare since it launched in the summer of 2013. Solar flares are bursts of x-rays and light that stream out into space, but scientists don't yet know the fine details of what sets them off.
IRIS peers into ...
Is a 'buttery' molecule behind cystic fibrosis flare-ups?
2014-02-21
A molecule previously linked to lung injuries in factory workers producing microwave popcorn might play an important role in microbial infections of the lung suffered by people with cystic fibrosis (CF), according to a recent study led by San Diego State postdoctoral researcher Katrine Whiteson. The molecule, known as 2,3-butanedione or diacetyl, can be detected in higher concentrations in CF patients than in healthy ones.
CF patients experience day-to-day persistent coughing and increased mucus production, punctuated by periodic flare-ups of these symptoms, known as ...
New, inexpensive production materials boost promise of hydrogen fuel
2014-02-21
MADISON, Wis. — Generating electricity is not the only way to turn sunlight into energy we can use on demand. The sun can also drive reactions to create chemical fuels, such as hydrogen, that can in turn power cars, trucks and trains.
The trouble with solar fuel production is the cost of producing the sun-capturing semiconductors and the catalysts to generate fuel. The most efficient materials are far too expensive to produce fuel at a price that can compete with gasoline.
"In order to make commercially viable devices for solar fuel production, the material and the ...
Fruit-loving lemurs score higher on spatial memory tests
2014-02-21
DURHAM, N.C. -- Food-finding tests in five lemur species show that fruit-eaters may have better spatial memory than lemurs with a more varied diet.
The results support the idea that relying on foods that are seasonally available and far-flung gives a competitive edge to individuals with certain cognitive abilities -- such as remembering where the goodies are.
In a study appearing in the journal Animal Cognition, researchers Alexandra Rosati at Yale University and Kerri Rodriguez and Brian Hare of Duke compared spatial memory skills across five species of lemurs living ...
