#18 胃腸炎は本当にヤバい話

In this episode we talk about videogames in Canada and Japan...but mainly in Canada (we will talk more about videogames in Japan in the future). We discuss how Zach doesn't really like many Canadian or maybe games in general, PC vs console, how videogames are viewed, etc.

Hello and welcome to my Chinese Channel. Today let's take a look at how to express the different nationalities, such as I am Chinese. And how to ask which country do you come from? Are you ready?

你是哪国人？which country do you come from?

Hello and welcome to today’s episode. I hope you are all well and having a wonderful day. Today’s topic is longevity, this is something I only really took seriously and investigated since the pandemic.
Since the pandemic, most of us, myself included have realised how important our health is and have started taking a proactive approach to our health. The average lifespan has been extended dramatically since the environmental improvements in the 1990s due to advances in medicine that have nearly eliminated certain deadly infectious diseases. The good news is that although longevity is mostly influenced by genetics, studies show that genetics count for 30% of longevity the rest is determined by your lifestyle, behaviours, attitudes, environment, and luck.

Why we need to protect polar bears

Polar bears are being increasingly threatened by the effects of climate change, but their disappearance could have far-reaching consequences. They are uniquely adapted to the extreme conditions of the Arctic Circle, where temperatures can reach -40°C. One reason for this is that they have up to 11 centimetres of fat underneath their skin. Humans with comparative levels of adipose tissue would be considered obese and would be likely to suffer from diabetes and heart disease. Yet the polar bear experiences no such consequences.

A 2014 study by Shi Ping Liu and colleagues sheds light on this mystery. They compared the genetic structure of polar bears with that of their closest relatives from a warmer climate, the brown bears. This allowed them to determine the genes that have allowed polar bears to survive in one of the toughest environments on Earth. Liu and his colleagues found the polar bears had a gene known as APoB, which reduces levels of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) – a form of ‘bad’ cholesterol. In humans, mutations of this gene are associated with increased risk of heart disease. Polar bears may therefore be an important study model to understand heart disease in humans.

I'll add the last part in the message area.
