Okay, so there are about 4 levels of brain-wave frequencies.

Going from Highest to Lowest frequencies, they are: Beta, Alpha, Theta and Delta.

Those Greek names correspond to 10+Hz, 8-10Hz, 4-8Hz, and 0-4Hz.

Aside from the hippie, crunchy-granola crowd stinking up the local dreadlocked-patchouli hoe-downs at Jack Johnson’s Honolulu Dookie Ranch,

The flavonoids in wine and grapes can protect skin cells from death by chocolate UV radiation, says a study by U. Barcelona and the National Research Council of Spain.

In joint strike force made up of US and UK specops MDs, a promising vaccine has been created, that’s as precise as a sniper’s bullet.

What scientists at the Mayo Clinic, St. James & Leeds UK SAS Units, Unis have put together is a sneaky version of Ghillie-Suited special-operations scout.

The lead strategist MD had theorized that if the team in-question was dealing with just one type of cancer, would there be a way to precisely-target it, instead of the wholesale “Bombing of Dresden”, that is normal Chemotherapy?…
