Shilajit or mumijo, Mohave lava tube, 2018. Shilajit (Sanskrit: शिलाजीत; lit. ' conqueror of mountain ', 'conqueror of the rocks'), salajeet (Urdu: سلاجیت), mumijo or mumlayi or mumie [1] is an organic-mineral product of predominantly biological origin, formed at high altitudes of stony mountains, in sheltered crevices and cave.
Poly-MVA is promoted with claims that it can treat a variety of human diseases, including cancer and HIV/AIDS. [1] The promotional effort is supported by customer testimonials, but there is no medical evidence that Poly-MVA confers any health benefit and some concern it may inhibit the effectiveness of mainstream cancer treatments if used at the same time.
The primary mineral is hydroxyapatite, which is a crystalline calcium phosphate. [4] Enamel is formed on the tooth while the tooth develops within the jaw bone before it erupts into the mouth. Once fully formed, enamel does not contain blood vessels or nerves, and is not made of cells.
This is a list of minerals which have Wikipedia articles. Minerals are distinguished by various chemical and physical properties.
This list includes those recognised minerals beginning with the letter T.The International Mineralogical Association is the international group that recognises new minerals and new mineral names; however, minerals discovered before 1959 did not go through the official naming procedure, although some minerals published previously have been either confirmed or discredited since that date.
P11-4 is a self-assembling β-peptide. It builds a 3-D bio-matrix with binding sites for Calcium-ions serving as nucleation point for hydroxyapatite (tooth mineral) formation. The high affinity to tooth mineral is based on matching distances of Ca-ion binding sites on P11-4 and Ca spacing in the crystal lattice of hydroxyapatite.
The affected areas of the tooth change color and become soft to the touch. Once the decay passes through the enamel, the dentinal tubules , which have passages to the nerve of the tooth, become exposed, resulting in pain that can be transient, temporarily worsening with exposure to heat, cold, or sweet foods and drinks.

Another study examined both the serum and the joint synovial fluid after nasogastric (oral) or intravenous administration of 20 mg/kg glucosamine hydrochloride to eight adult horses. [48] Although joint fluid concentrations of glucosamine reached 9–15 μmol/L following intravenous dosing, it was only 0.3–0.7 μmol/L with nasogastric dosing.
