Trinidad and Tobago is way past barbarism. Trinidad and Tobago was always barbaric
and look who talking..Dr Maria Therese Gomes...upper class woman... an upper class whose contempt for ordinary Trinidad was a work of art and a thing of beauty in its flawless brutality and unconcern
class and racism in Trinidad was caste, way beyond the limits of class in its rigidity. Therese Gomez must be at least brownskin..or white...or it cud even be a black woman married to a Potoghee male.
Ambitious black women like to join up deh married name like dat...Therese-Gomez.

Study: Alcohol Associated With Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth
alcoholic-drinksMost people are aware of the adverse health effects drinking too much alcohol can have on the body and mind. Over consumption can damage the liver, the stomach, and lead to excess weight gain. It has also been connected to with memory loss, clinical depression and emotional instability, and fatty liver among other psychological concerns.
These factors (combined with the all-too-common tendency of acting foolish when imbibing too much), lead many health-conscious people to temper the amount of alcohol they consume. Now, there may be another reason to abstain.
Alcohol Affects Intestinal Flora
Research presented late last year at the American College of Gastroenterology’s Annual Scientific Meeting conference, in Washington, D.C., suggests that drinking even very moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis may negatively influence the balance of naturally occurring bacterial flora in the small intestines [1].
What is Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?
Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), also sometimes referred to as small bowel bacterial overgrowth syndrome (SBBOS), is an increasingly common disorder in which populations of normally beneficial or benign intestinal bacteria grow at an abnormally fast rate. Unpleasant symptoms, such as bloating and nausea, are generally associated with these crowded in-bowel conditions. In more severe instances, frequent vomiting and diarrhea are also common.
Historically, intestinal damage resulting from other forms of bowel disease, and the use of certain antibiotic medications, have been considered primary risk factors for the condition. Previous studies have also shown a link between clinical alcoholism and SIBO or SBBOS [2]. However, this recent analysis is one of the first to document the effects of moderate alcohol consumption on intestinal bacteria growth.
Even Light Alcohol Consumption May be Detrimental
Using a technique referred to as lactulose hydrogen breath testing (LHBT), researchers were able to gauge concentrations of bacteria in the bowels of nearly 200 participants. Of these, the vast majority tested positive for small bowel bacterial overgrowth. Roughly 95 percent of them were also light to moderate alcohol drinkers—suggesting that consuming even the smallest amount alcohol can have a dramatic impact intestinal bacteria levels.
“Moderate alcohol consumption†is medically defined as no more than two drinks per day for men, and one drink per day for women. A “drink†is similarly defined as being equal to 12 ounces of beer, five ounces of wine, or about one and a half ounces of distilled spirits.
Although many people responsibly enjoy an occasional beer or glass of wine without repercussion, if these new finding are correct, it underscores the importance of taking steps to protect the health of our intestinal environment.

what to do about it
it's not the fault of politician

to do about it ::confused::
by now that shud be clear.....at lease causation.
we have evolved exploitative society..social economy that exploits the majority of all people to fill the pockets of a few people on the planet.
to have achieved that to the depth that it has been means comprehensive human evil as routine human behavior, essential for survival..which routine behavior becomes codified in our DNA and repeated expands by the generation, compounded by the growing failure of the said economy as liquidity is concentrated into the hands of the few to an extent that has enslaved all of society
there is only one solution..globally: end the money system, the so-called capitalist system and replace it with one that is democratic, from the ground up..not the top down.
that is or would be the start of a human reclamation project that may end up saving the species
the ordinary people must rise up and revolutionize society. they are those who have the social interest to bring about such change. the ordinary people are the collective social class that wud benefit from such change..
but revolutionary social change is the change necessary to save society, to cleanse all this evil and set us on a path to truth

its a beautiful thing to talk about change when you put your tail between you legs and ran as far away as possible.
