Disease Begins in the Mucus. Posted by Paul Jaminet on June 23, 2015 Leave a comment (50) Go to comments. Hippocrates famously said, âAll disease begins in the gut.â I think we can narrow it down further: much modern disease begins in the mucus. In a recent post, I put up this picture: A depleted mucosal layer leads to inflammation and gut permeability.
Gamma ray (also called gamma radiation), denoted by the lower-case Greek letter gamma (Î³ or Î³ {\displaystyle \gamma } ), is penetrating electromagnetic radiation of a kind arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei and consists of high-energy photons.
Gamma rays interaction with matter is important from the perspective of shielding. against their effect on biological matter. They are considered as ionizing radiation whose. scattering by electrons and nuclei leads to the creation of a radiation field containing negative. electrons and positive ions. The main modes of interaction of gamma rays with matter are the photo effect both in its. photoelectric and photonuclear forms, Compton scattering and electron positron pair production. To a minor extent, photo-fission, Rayleigh scattering and Thomson scattering also occur.
