The timeline of the Old Testament, as conventionally understood, is wrong - way wrong. This is because it is based on the Masoretic Text (MT). However, if we consider the timeline of the Septuagint (LXX), what we discover is that the Bible's authentic timeline, created from the original documents of the Old Testament in 280 BC in Alexandria, Egypt, provides a chronology that is easily aligned with the records of Egypt, Sumer, India, and China - concerning when their respective civilizations began.

Though we don’t believe in setting dates, it is clear that the rapture of the church is imminent, perhaps much nearer than we think.

Recognizing the composition and modulation of the microbiome, a viable therapeutic tool for multi-targeted therapy is a new strategy that has recently been explored. Glucosamine (GS) is being studied for its prebiotic potential in addition to being the most abundant and naturally occurring amino monosaccharide. The current study focuses on glucosamine’s prebiotic potential by assessing the stability of various GS concentrations (1% - 5%) in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and its ability to be fermented by the gut microbiota. The results showed that GS stimulated the most growth in L. acidophilus even after a longer incubation time than B. bifidum and L. acidophilus growth was concentration-dependent, with maximum growth at 3% with a simultaneous decrease in pH (5.6 - 1.7). The decrease in GS concentration with time also represented the growth of bacterial species, demonstrating the species’ utilization of GS. Furthermore, at 3%, GS also represented the prebiotic index of 1.9. In addition, the concentration of GS in various simulated GIT fluids was estimated in both fast and fed conditions to examine GS stability at various levels in the gut. The results showed that GS remained unaffected and non-digestible in all of the simulated GIT fluids (salivary, gastric, intestinal, and colonic), but there was a slight decrease in GS concentration (2.8%) in the fasted state of gastric fluid due to low pH levels (1.6). As a result, the findings are conclusive and suggest that GS possesses prebiotic properties.

Background Low back pain (LBP) is the leading cause of Years Lived with Disability worldwide.1 The number of people suffering from LBP grew more than 50% from 1990 to 2013, to 651 million.1 Chronic low back pain can often lead to depression. Data on 1 90 593 community-dwelling adults aged ≥18 years from the World Health Survey (WHS) 2002–2004 in 43 Low and middle-income countries show a strong correlation between chronic back pain and depression.2 Glucosamine-chondroitin sulfate (GCS) combination is widely used in the treatment of OA; however, there are few prospective scientific investigations of its therapeutic merits in severe LBP. Objectives To study the efficacy of GCS in the decreasing depression in patients with chronic low back pain in a large open pilot prospective observational study. Methods We enrolled patients between 40 and 65 years of age who had LBP for at least 12 weeks with a pain intensity >3 on a 0–10-point visual analogue scale (VAS) in a single-arm, open-label prospective interventional study. Major exclusion criteria were the presence of fibromyalgia, degenerative spondylolisthesis, and alcohol and/or drug abuse. All patients were treated with a combination of glucosamine hydrochloride 500 mg and chondroitin sulfate 500 mg in tablet form (Unipharm Inc.) at a dose of 1 tablet bid for the first month and then 1 tablet daily for the next two months. The primary endpoint was pain intensity (at rest and movement) as measured on a 0–10 point VAS. Depression was measured by the 13-questionnaire Beck’s Depression Inventory (BDI). There are 13 questions in this score with highest possible score of 39 (5–7 is mild depression; 8–15 moderate depression, 16 and over severe depression).3 Results A total of 8598 subjects (mean age 52.1 years, 67.3% women, mean BMI 27.4) were enrolled in the study, and formed the intent-to-treat (ITT) population. All but 95 subjects (1.1%) completed the study. Previously-reported ITT analysis with worst observation carried forward (WOCF) showed an improvement in pain at rest from mean (±SD) of 5.2±1.9 at study entry to 1.4±1.6 at 3 months (p

A randomized double‑blind placebo‑controlled clinical study was conducted to evaluate the chondroprotective action of glucosamine on healthy subjects (soccer players) without joint disorders. Collegiate soccer players (n=43) without joint disorders were randomly assigned to receive a glucosamine (2 g/day)‑containing supplement (n=22, glucosamine group) or a placebo (n=21, placebo group) for 16 weeks, and cartilage metabolism was evaluated by analyzing markers for type II collagen degradation urine C‑terminal telopeptide‑II (CTX‑II) and serum collagen type II cleavage (C2C) and synthesis urine C-terminal type II procollagen peptide (CPII). In the initial analysis of all subjects, urine CTX‑II level substantially decreased in the glucosamine group, but not in the placebo group after the intervention for 16 weeks (P=0.05). Moreover, CTX‑II level in the glucosamine group was also significantly lower than that in the placebo group at week 16 during the intervention. In the second analysis, to make the effect of the test supplement more clear, 41 subjects with less variation of exercise loading were evaluated. The results revealed that urine CTX‑II level significantly decreased in the glucosamine group (n=21), but not in the placebo group (n=20) after the intervention (P
