The Cholesterol Also Rises EMILY CLARK FRANKY ONLEY

Slide 2

Did you know that tanning can be good for you?

Slide 3

Sunlight helps our bodies create Vitamin D

Slide 4

Vitamin D is critical to humans biochemistry Vitamin D deficiencies are linked to the development of dozens of diseases such as: Multiple types of cancers Diabetes Heart Disease Arthritis Mental Illness And more

Slide 5

Did you also know that. Cholesterol in necessary for human survival Our skin converts Cholesterol to Vitamin D

Slide 6

Our Largest Organ: Skin In the skin is where the crucial step of Vitamin D takes place The color of skin is an adaptation to how much sunlight you are exposed to No.. It is not to protect you against sun burn, but to protect from the loss of folic acid Darker the skin the less ultraviolet light you absorb Some scientist theorize we all started out with darker skin before we began to migrate and evolution took control

Slide 7

Results of Nina G. Jablonski and George Chaplin there was a near constant correlation between skin color and sunlight exposure in populations that had remained in the same area for 500 years or more. They had used this equation to support their claim W = 70 -AUV/10

Slide 8

Evolution is Clever Darker skin blocks the ultraviolet rays from absorbing folic acids, the skin does not absorb any Vitamin D from the sun Solution: apolipoprotein E (ApoE4 gene) This ensures that the cholesterol in your body is flowing at an abundance Side Affects: More at risk for heart disease and stroke

Slide 9

Being a Mutant Were all mutants and it isnt a bad thing. Example: Being able to eat ice cream with no complications Great majority of the worlds adults cannot eat or drink milk without complications When these adults no longer feed on breast milk, their bodies stop producing the enzyme that we need to digest lactose, the main sugar compound in milk. If you can drink milk without bloating, cramping, and diarrhea that signify lactose intolerance. You probably are descended from farmers who drank animal milk

Slide 10

Race You can not look at a persons skin color and determine their race. Why? Skin color is changed based on your environment to match the suns brightness level in terms of common genetics, some dark-skinned North Africans are probably closer to light-skinned Southern Europeans than they are to other Africans with whom they share skin color.

Slide 11

Genetics Scientists have found we are more intermixed then what was first thought Humans are on the fast track of migrating for hundreds of years now Humans go to all parts of the world, meet, and have relations resulting in the births of intermixed children Migration and genetics mixed results in the showing of distinct genetic traits

Slide 12

The Distinct Genetic Traits African Americans are more prone to fatal heart attacks due to hypertension European and South Asian Americans have a 10% higher risk for cancer and heart disease American Latinos are more likely to die of diabetes, liver disease, and infectious disease Native Americans have higher rates of tuberculosis, pneumonia, and in- uenza
