Do Kids Need Carbohydrates for Energy?

What foods do our Kid's Brains need to grow and work well?

And, 100 years ago, did people live long enough to die of heart disease?

I was recently asked, by a friend of mine, these very important questions that really need to be understood. So, after thinking about it, and answering my friend, I felt it might be helpful to pass on my response in a blog post here.  Additionally, I will attempt to address the questions below that were also asked.  I felt they were all valid questions and that many people aren't really sure of what the answers are:

These are some important questions:
  1. Do Kids Need Carbohydrates, specifically “Whole Wheat” for Energy?
  2. Do they need carbs (pasta/bread/etc.) for brain development/energy?
  3. Do Kids need carbs if they don’t need to lose weight?  What if they do need to lose weight, what then?
  4. Do they need carbs to run fast and get good grades on tests and to be alert?
  5. Is the Paleo way of eating a bogus diet for Children?
  6. Do the Cells in our Brain that are made out of fat benefit from Animal Fat, or is it Carboydrate that creates the brain neuron connections? What fuel source best helps the brain function at its best?
  7. Does our Fat in our Fat Cells (in our body) get stored easiest from Fat or Carbohydrates?
  8. Or, are ALL Carbohydrates horrible for Kids?
My most passionate intent in creating this blog is to try and give science-based information about Children's health, to parents.  To try and sort these questions out would be a great place to start. If all you do is watch the videos in this post, you will have a great understanding of which Nutrient-Dense Foods we should be feeding our children, and why!

So, How do Carbs, or the lack of Carbs, affect Kids?
Do Kids NEED the macro-nutrient Carbohydrate?
Did people live long enough to die of heart disease 100 years ago?

Here is my response I gave to my friend on these questions (with a few minor edits for readability). . .

It's more than okay not to know all the answers relating to your new way of eating (since you are new to the Paleo diet).  Give yourself some time, you are still learning.

The best place to start is to view THE YOU TUBE-VIDEOS (see clips below) AS THEY ARE THE FOUNDATION we are going to build on.  So watch those first.

Weston A. Price Foundation - Nutrition 101

Conclusion - Part 2

I get it; it's hard to wrap your brain around these different, publicly untaught, nutrition facts you are learning, even though they are science-based.  It's hard to give up the diet recommendations that we have been told by the news media and government to follow – in which these nutrition guidelines, and our health epidemic crises, have exponentially risen at the same rate, and at the same point in history, that we were told to make these dietary changes - and that they could be wrong?

In 1977, we really started to hear, listen and follow, the government's message that we needed to switch to eating a low-fat, low cholesterol, high carbohydrate, diet.  Look at the trend lines for obesity rates in the chart below since we implemented that advice.  Wow.  That doesn't look too good.

I think we can find some common ground here.  First, we can agree, I think, that Sugar is not good.  They are empty, non-nutritive calories with no health benefit.  In fact, sugar is extremely harmful, especially if over-consumed.

Watch clips to see - Sugar's impact
Dr. Robert H. Lustig, MD, Pediatric Endocrinologist at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital
Professor of Clinical Pediatrics, at the University of California, San Franscisco (UCSF)

Did you know that 2 slices of Whole Wheat bread raises blood sugar higher than 6 teaspoons of sugar (per Cardiologist Dr. William Davis, MD)?  It's a little known fact.  That's a huge amount of sugar to consume at one sitting, just eating a sandwich.  Your body breaks down "whole" wheat into sugar in the body.  It's just what happens.  By the way, I made an AWESOME loaf of bread this week made with coconut and almond flour - no wheat – which would not promote a high blood sugar response!  There are better choices for nearly everything.  Good, better, best, is my motto!

The U.S. government's nutrition guidelines recommend
300 grams of Carbohydrate per day...
That's a cup and a half of sugar - in the Blood!

"Starch is just Sugar by another name."
Dr. Mary Dan Eades MD, Dr. Mike Eades MD, and Dr. Al Sears MD

What we try and do in our home is concentrate on adding in a large amount of the Nutrient-Dense foods (I'll go over those later - see the you-tube clip at the bottom of the post) and limit the foods that are not as healthy.  That has been my goal with my 8 year old daughter for several years now.  It's working.  She is on the honor roll and is receiving an award for Citizenship too!  Okay, that was the proud mother in me.

So, let's focus on which are the BEST sources of Carbohydrates to eat, for nutrition.  I'm not advocating zero carbs (although your body would hum along just fine there).  But, what are the best sources to choose?

So let's look at Grains - we have to put whole wheat into the grains category.  Now, starches, grains and fruits (and sugar), turn into glucose (blood sugar) in the blood.  It's a biological fact.  The body can't tell the difference between white table sugar and grains/fruit/starches except that it breaks down whole grains slightly slower, not enough to make a big difference.  The body doesn't make a distinction between sugar and grains/starches/fruits; it just breaks them down into glucose (blood sugar).  It still has to release the hormone insulin to bring blood sugar into a healthy range which, as it turns out, is a very low level, to be healthy. Your body wants to be at a very narrow, low, blood sugar range.

All grains (even the so-called "healthy" whole grains), starches and fruits, turn into glucose and then blood sugar goes up and then insulin comes in to bring it down.  That's one of insulin's jobs - to bring our blood sugar into a healthy range.  If insulin doesn't do this for us, it is very bad for us, and can even be deadly, if blood sugar is allowed to get too high.  This continuous process wears on the body (the pancreas cells become bathed in insulin over and over and become tired, in a lot of people).

Some children do have a greater ability to burn carbohydrates off, but it does tax the body and place a burden on the pancreas doing this continuously, over and over.  As we get older, it gets harder to keep up with this load, for a great number of people (like me - I wish I knew this so much earlier and younger, and had changed my diet before insulin resistance had set in).  The cells in the pancreas become tired from having to keep working so hard and then Insulin Resistance can develop, and then Type 2 Diabetes, in many people.  This is why those conditions happen.  Children (as young as 8 years old) are getting these conditions in much greater numbers. It's NOT a good thing!  It doesn't matter if it's white table sugar or so-called "healthy whole grains" the body reacts exactly the same way.

"Why we get Fat clip"

That said, I'm not advocating zero carbs, I am saying let's choose the best ones for health.  Whole wheat, as it turns out, is NOT the best choice.  I limit this one BIG TIME with Eva and I don't eat it AT ALL.  She only eats a small piece of (properly prepared) Fermented Sour Dough Bread with a good amount of KerryGold Butter, occasionally, in the morning with some eggs or nitrate-free bacon.  We pick and choose our carbs carefully.  Click here to read a short article, about wheat, by a Cardiologist, Dr. William Davis.

One should consider getting the book "Wheat Belly" by a well-respected Cardiologist, Dr. William Davis, MD, who put a great deal of research and science into the subject of wheat.  The Wheat of today IS NOT the same wheat that our Grandmother and Great-Grandmother's ate.  He found that the Wheat of today is VERY addictive and triggers reactions in the same part of the brain as addictive drugs do.  From how I understand it, the GLIADIN component in today's wheat (click link here to read an article from Dr. Davis) is one of the problems with eating wheat.  The Gliadin in wheat causes an addictive response, inflammation, as well as weight gain, among MANY other health problems.

The majority of the wheat today is a modern wheat that has been modified to what is now called a "Dwarf wheat".  To really understand all of the health ramifications of wheat, the benefits of eliminating wheat from the diet, and to understand that the so-called "healthy Whole Grains" might not be so healthy, consider reading the book Wheat Belly by Dr. Davis, or see an article by him in Life Extensions (click link here).

Okay, with all that said, Eva in no way eats zero carbohydrates.  What we do is limit SUGAR as much as possible.  This is a big one.  We use (natural from a plant with zero glycemic index) Stevia at home, a lot in baking and in drinks; she doesn't even know the difference.  She just thinks it's sweet and that it's what we use in our home to make something sweet.  Additionally, she eats very limited amounts of properly prepared grains and legumes (soaked, sprouted, and fermented) to help reduce the toxins / anti-nutrients in them (phytates and lectins and such) that ARE present in them.  I don't eat them at all.  These toxins and anti-nutrients in grains and legumes inhibits the absorption of minerals (among other problems), from the food itself, and other foods eaten with them.

I am most concerned with adding in to her diet the "Nutrient-Dense" Super-foods to compensate for any treats at school when I am unable to be there to intervene (especially wheat).  She actually is really good about self-limiting a good number of treats that are offered to her at school now, do to me educating her about what foods are truly healthy and which ones are not.  I am most proud of this accomplishment with her.  So, I concentrate on adding in the Nutrient-Dense Foods to compensate for any treats from school that I don't have control over.  This is our middle-ground.

I think concentrating on what the best sources of carbohydrates are, and then focusing on adding-in the nutrient-dense animal fats and proteins, is a good way to approach this.

"Is Saturated Fat good?"
Tom Naughton explains in this Fathead clip

If doing the Paleo diet, one might consider choosing the "so-called" safe starches (I'm not convinced those work for someone with Insulin Resistance or Diabetes) like sweet potatoes and starchy vegetables. One might also decide to choose the low-sugar fruits, like berries and kiwi, as good options of carbohydrates to give kids, and limiting the high-sugar fruits.  Those are good options.  That is a lot of carbohydrate right there without adding in wheat and grains.  (To see how much that is, take a look at the Paleo chart of carbohydrate ranges and options of the best fruit and starchy vegetable choices click link here.)  I always eat any fruit with a good source of Fat like nut-butter, nuts, avocado, full-fat cream or full-fat cheese, to better absorb the nutrients in the fruit, and to slow-down the insulin surge.

For weight loss, the amount of carbs NEEDS to be low, so you can access the fat stores for energy, rather than burning carbs for your daily energy.  Active people (of all ages) who's goal is maintaining weight, can eat slightly more and still maintain optimal health (click here for a dietitian's PDF chart for optimal carb targets).

Next, Brain development absolutely happens with Fats and Cholesterol.  That's what makes the neurons connect and is the building blocks for the myelin sheath in our brains, NOT CARBOHYDRATES.  (They are calling Alzheimer's Type 3 Diabetes now, because too much carbohydrate and sugar eaten, and broken down in the body, affects the brain VERY NEGATIVELY and it is very likely the cause of Alzheimer's).  Carbohydrates also have negative results for children's ability to concentrate, to be attentive at school, and to focus.  Even if a child is doing well at present, a child's (or an adult's) body can get worn down from the insulin surges constantly going on.  So, even though a child is doing well in school now, doesn't mean it will continue to be this way with a diet not supplying key nutrients in fats and cholesterol.

Over time, things can change for a child without a diet that includes ample amounts of the proper nutrients; True Vitamin A which only comes from animal sources (beta-carotene is VERY DIFFICULT to convert to Vitamin A in the bodies of children and many adults), Vitamin D, Vitamin K2, and Cholesterol. True Vitamin A, D, K2, and the all important Cholesterol, are ALL sorely missing in today's low-fat, high grain, diet. Our poor children's brains are screaming for these highly missing nutrients.  We need to keep feeding our kids brains these nutrients so they keep making brain connections properly, which is happening in them at such a high rate while they are young.

Energy does not need to come from carbohydrate.  Carbohydrates are biologically unnecessary per the Institute of Medicine (IOM) 2005 Macro-Nutrient Report (I think it's a Medical Text Book).  Fats and Proteins are absolutely necessary.  Every body's energy (including kids) absolutely can and should come from fats (which are so desperately needed for brain function, as well.)  I HOPE YOU WATCHED THE SALLY FALLON YOU-TUBE CLIP ABOVE, FROM THE WESTON A. PRICE FOUNDATION, WHICH TOTALLY HITS THIS POINT.

Proteins are the building blocks (think of Protein from food like the "new you" as kids grow or as adults and kids regenerate).  And yes, it should come from Animal Protein because it is the BEST, most complete, form of protein.  We need the Vitamins A, D and K2, that ONLY come from "Animal" Fats (particularly Cholesterol which only comes from Animal foods) for our BRAIN function and our HORMONE function.  It NEEDS to come from Animal sources.

Okay, next question.  So, 100 years ago, people did live to a ripe old age.  I wrote to Comedian Tom Naughton of the Fathead Movie and Blog who is a documentary film maker, speaker, and who, I think, is very knowledgeable on this topic and Nutrition in general.  Here is what he said in response to my questions on the subject. (I believe his kids are around the same age as my 8 year old daughter).

Oh, lordy … my daughters don't eat grains, but my oldest just scored 100 in both math and science on her standardized state tests.  Didn't miss a single question.  (But she only got a 97 in social studies and a 96 in English, so I guess she needs more whole-grain cereals in her diet).

Funny that people think Paleo is a "fad" since it's how humans ate for more than 99% of human history.

The idea that people didn't live long enough to have heart attacks 100 years ago is not true.  The life expectancy average was based on a high rate of infant and childhood mortality.  If you made it past your teens, the odds of living to be 70 or older were good, despite the lack of surgical procedures and medications we have today.  Look at the country's founders and their ages at their time of death:  Ben Franklin, 84.  Thomas Jefferson, 83.  James Madison, 85.  John Adams, 91.

Red Cloud (the Indian chief who lived on buffalo meat for most of his life) was 87 when he died.  Geronimo died at 90.  Lots of people lived to a ripe old age back in the day, but lots of people also lost young children to diseases we can cure today.

I wouldn't feed my daughters bread and pasta any more than I'd let them eat Snickers bars for breakfast.  They not only DON'T lack energy despite not eating grains or sugar, sometimes I wish they'd slow down more often.

Perhaps hearing from doctors on the subject will help?

He suggested listening to this Internet recorded interview as well: Just click the link and then click the arrow to listen (note from Vicki; this is a great interview which I have listened to)

So, what the Science shows is that we do not need carbohydrates for energy, to run fast, get good grades on tests, or to be alert.  In fact, carbohydrates (even whole grains) do just the opposite, by releasing insulin and storing our food energy into our fat cells instead of allowing us to access our energy for the brain's and body's needs.

In summary, the best carbohydrates to feed kids are low-sugar fruits and vegetables (along with healthy fats with them to slow the insulin spike and for better mineral absorption).  If Paleo is your approach and you are not trying to lose weight, you are not diabetic, and you are not insulin resistant, you might also add small amounts of "safe starches" (click link here), again, with healthy fats, to slow the blood sugar response.  And, although it is not technically Paleo, I believe raw dairy (whole; milk, cream, cheese, sour cream, kefir, yogurt and butter) is also an excellent source of highly nutrient-dense fats, carbs and protein!

Take home message; Carbohydrates are biologically unnecessary to the body.  Protein and fat, however, are vital to our survival and health.  So, eat your animal proteins and fats (preferably grass-fed) for brain function and constant and steady energy to the body.

Kids would thrive eating this way, whatever you want to call it; Paleo, Traditional Foods, Low-Carb, Primal, Low-Glycemic.  I like to call it the "Nutrient-Dense Food Diet" and it would be the optimal diet for kids.  When humans did eat this way, the nation did not have the health problems we have now.

In conclusion, it might be hard to grasp that the diet recommendations that we have been given, might not be as healthy as we have been told.  It might be challenging to begin to understand that carbohydrates are not vital to our health, well being, and energy (in children or adults), as we have been led to believe. The Science is there to review.  People just need to hear the message.  Or, a better way to say it is that you can't change the facts of what the Science of Nutrition proves (and what it never did prove).

I hope this helps and that it makes a lot of sense!

Think Saturated Fat and Cholesterol Will Give You Heart Disease? Think Again.

This is a post from Our Nourishing Roots that I wanted to share from the blog site  Nothing to add.  It's a great article.
Sometimes I forget that most people have not re-embraced healthy, traditional, saturated fats like I have.  And even if they have, they still cling to the idea that too much fat would be “bad”.
Those two statements alone open a can of worms for a lot of people.  I had a friend once say “So all those lessons we had in school about how good fats were liquid at room temperature and bad fats were solid…those were wrong?”  Yep.  Give me butter over canola oil any day.
Saturated fats like grass-fed butter, pastured lard, beef and lamb tallow from grazing animals, coconut oil, and palm oil: all of these give us nourishment in a way that other fats and lowfat diets never can.
Not All Fats Are Created Equal:
If you have been to the grocery store lately, you have probably seen the pale sticks of butter that line the refrigerated section.  Barely yellow, these sticks of butter contain far less vitamin content than their grass-fed counterparts. This is because the naturally yellow butter color comes from the vitamin content.
Of particular interest is the vitamin K2 content in butterfat from grass-fed cows.  Vitamin K2 is made when the cows eating green grass convert the vitamin K from the grass into vitamin K2 in their milk.  In short, vitamin K2 was abundant in traditional diets, and it is key in the building of bones and teeth in particular.
Yes, grass-fed dairy is more expensive.  But it doesn’t mean that you aren’t getting more bang for your buck.  If you pay more for grass-fed butter, you will be getting a much higher quality fat source in your diet.  However, even if you cannot source grass-fed butter then please still buy the best quality butter you can find.  Real traditional fats are still better than hydrogenated oils and margarines.
In addition to butter, there are many other traditional fats that are nourishing and essential to good health.  I have listed them as their best-quality versions.
Saturated Fats Won’t Give You Heart Disease?:
Out of my list, you will notice that many are saturated fats: solid at room temperature and very shelf stable with a tendency for high smoke points.  All these factors make them excellent for high heat cooking.  They include cocoa butter, coconut oil, tallow, and ghee (not butter: it still has milk solids which can burn).
And no, none of them will give you heart disease.
On page 5, the section on “Fats” in Nourishing Traditions, it says:
…heart disease causes at least 40 percent of all U.S. deaths.  If, as we have been told, heart disease is caused by consumption of saturated fats, one would expect to find a corresponding increase in animal fats in the American diet.  Actually, the reverse is true.  During the sixty-year period from 1910 to 1970, the proportion of traditional animal fat in the American diet declined from 83 percent to 62 percent, and butter consumption plummeted from 18 pounds per person per year to four.  During the past eighty years, dietary cholesterol intake has increased only 1 percent.  During the same period the percentage of dietary vegetable oils in the form of margarine, shortening and refined oils increased about 400 percent while the consumption of sugar and processed foods increased about 60 percent.
In the quote, she mentions cholesterol.  Cholesterol seems to go hand in hand with saturated fat when you talk to the typical American about what they think causes heart disease.  Of course, this makes sense since many times saturated fat and cholesterol co-exist in the same foods, foods that have been villainized by the Food Guide Pyramid and the “diet dictocrats”.
The Lipid Hypothesis is basically that dietary cholesterol causes coronary heart disease.  Yet it has been recently questioned many times over, dividing the evidence found.  Regardless, the American people still cling to the idea that eating saturated fat and cholesterol will give you heart disease.  It is simply not true.
One my favorite food and nutrition writers, Matt Stone, has this to say on the subject:
Cholesterol levels are a pitiful indicator of heart disease risk to the point where they are really no indication at all. Mean serum cholesterol levels in France for example are almost identical to that of Americans, yet their heart disease risk is but a fifth of what America endures. This is just one of literally dozens of striking contradictions.

Look to the studies cited on the saturated fat and cardiovascular disease controversy Wikipedia page.  Even if the collection of findings does not compel you to question the veracity of common nutritional advice, think of our ancestors.
All our human ancestors ate animal fats and saturated fats and cholesterol in abundance.  And they did not die of heart disease.  They may have died from exposure or lack of modern medicine more readily, but certainly not because they only had access to traditional foods and not I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!
So, relax, read through my e-book on real food and learn to embrace the nourishing fats of our past.  Your body will thank you!

State budget cuts had adverse effects on patient care, leading to hospital’s decertification Date: 09/23/16

Megan Hart

By Megan Hart

Last December, I was reading the local newspaper before heading to my first day of work at KHI News Service when I came across a few paragraphs about a public notice stating one of Kansas’ two state psychiatric hospitals would lose Medicare payments within a month.

At my previous job, I had covered nursing home inspections, so I was somewhat familiar with how the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services handle inspections. From that experience, I knew it was rare for CMS to ‘decertify’ a facility or cut payments. Therefore, I knew something serious must have happened at Osawatomie State Hospital. The issue was even more important because in eastern Kansas most people who are involuntarily committed are automatically sent to OSH. The only other state psychiatric facility covers the western part of the state, and relatively few private facilities take involuntary patients, even if the person has insurance.

For a quick daily story that I wrote with my colleague Andy Marso, I got the CMS inspection report and combined that information with a response from officials in the state Department for Aging and Disability Services. From the inspection report, we learned that a patient had sexually assaulted an employee, and the inspector pointed to a “systemic failure” because other security and medical staff weren’t performing their rounds at the time and had falsified records to say they had.

While waiting for CMS to send the inspection documents, I read through everything my predecessor at KHI (Dave Ranney) had written about OSH, and discovered an inspection in 2011 in which the inspectors did not find any deficiencies (which is relatively rare).

That’s when I decided to look into what had changed in those four years and requested all of CMS’ inspection records for that period.

When investigating state hospitals, start with CMS’ inspection records. The Joint Commission certifies some hospitals but doesn’t make its inspection records available. On the other hand, when CMS responds to complaints and conducts inspections, those records are available to the public. They’re quite dense, but sometimes you’ll find a nugget of news buried in the middle, such as information about a patient’s death. Nothing in these reports identifies personal information, so you won’t be able to find specific sources that way. But the reports offer enough information to determine whether there’s a story worth pursuing.

Fortunately, Ranney had written about mental health, and his stories were useful for context, possible sources, links and documents. I wanted to make sure I had a solid grasp on what was documented, because people have an incentive to spin the details when the press wants to know what went wrong.

Then I set aside some time to go over it all and figure out what specific questions I still had, and who might be able to answer them. Former hospital superintendents and employees were big sources, and mental health advocates and the state employees’ union offered some context.

Also, I found some of my best sources to be hospital staff retirees, because they have firsthand knowledge and were free to speak. Keep in mind, though, that some of them may have axes to grind, either against the current management or against other people you’ve used as sources.

Altogether, the series took about seven months, though the last month or so was devoted to editing. On a project of this size (five major stories), be sure to give yourself plenty of time to plan, write and edit. For a long investigative piece, it’s easy to get bogged down in the details, and that’s where it helps to work with an editor who can help pare away any excess.

The final package covered how mental health reform put strains on state hospitals in the 1990s and on OSH in particular (Osawatomie State Hospital: A leading light for mental health care slowly dims); how budget cuts and increasing numbers of patients caused the hospital to run over capacity (Higher patient count, unsteady state funding made waves for Osawatomie State Hospital); how a plan to reduce state costs with early retirements backfired, and patient care suffered (Staff departures created ‘dangerous situation’ at Osawatomie State Hospital); how two inspections uncovered dangerous situations, which led to the decertification (Patient violence, lack of security checks produced a ‘perfect storm’); and what the state plans to do to fix the situation (Added staff, budget aim to help Osawatomie State Hospital ‘turn the corner’).

Since the series ran in the last week of July, the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive so far. Those in the mental health community thanked us for pulling together the trends they’d observed into an accessible package.

ASMANEX TWISTHALER: FDA Approved Drugs and User Comments

User Comments:

For Asthma, Maintenance “I am hospitalized with COPD/emphysema and have no choice but to use, the nurses don’t even know how to use this device properly”

The applicator is infuriating. (taken for less than 1 month) October 29, 2017

For Asthma, Maintenance “I started taking asthma to control my adult-onset asthma. It works very well, and when I am on it, my asthma is very well-controlled. I have gone off of it twice, due to my doctor thinking I did not need to be on it long-term, but after my last series of asthma attacks we agreed I should stay on it for the foreseeable future. My only comment is that I do think it makes me gain weight, especially in my mid-section. Not a lot (yet) but we will see what happens if I go off of it again. The weight gain is on average about 5 lbs., so not much, but on my frame, it is noticeable. Every time I go off it, the weight goes as well. I’d rather breathe and have 5 extra lbs., but I haven’t seen this listed as a significant side effect anywhere.”

jalk1 November 10, 2016

For Asthma, Maintenance “I have been spotting and woke up in a pool of sweat since starting this medication”

Jmcop May 12, 2016

For Asthma, Maintenance “My 8 yr old daughter has been suffering from so many of the side effects listed. She was switched to this due to a switch in her health insurance. My very happy social child has experienced such anxiety and breakdowns that have come out of no where. She begs to not leave the house and to just be left alone in her room. Weightloss, diarrhea, painful urination the list continues. It breaks my heart. Her Doctor did not pick up on possibly the medicine being a cause she referred us to a therapist .I will continue with therapist but, we as parents have to be our childrens advocate and remember that with Drs. there is a reason they call it “practicing medicine ” That is exactly it they are practising.!”

Extremely concerned parent January 24, 2016

For Asthma, Maintenance “since starting this medication, my breathing ha improved immeasurably. i can workout harder and with more energy.its a great product. getting fewer colds and phlegm.”

rondomo (taken for 1 to 6 months) January 12, 2016

For Asthma, Maintenance “I had been on Pulmicort on and off, but had to stop using it because it gave me terrible leg cramps at night. Prior to starting Asmanex, my asthma had gotten worse, and I was using my rescue inhaler six or seven times a day. Since starting Asmanex, I have only used my rescue inhaler once in three months. I haven’t noticed any side effects either. I may just be one of the lucky ones, but my quality of life has improved immensely since I started using this “wonder drug”.”

Dave Chappelle Video Shows Man Tackle Comedian [Watch]

dave chappelle video attack tackle

Getty/Twitter A screengrab from a video circulating on Twitter that shows a person tackling Dave Chappelle on stage.

A man jumped on stage during Dave Chappelle’s live performance in Hollywood and tackled him in a May 3 incident captured on video and circulating on Twitter. The suspect has been identified as 23-year-old Isaiah Lee. He. is being held on $30,000 bond after being charged with felony assault with a deadly weapon, the LAPD says.

The Los Angeles Police Department told NBC News a man from the audience was taken into custody after he rushed the stage armed with a “replica gun” that “can eject a knife blade ‘when you discharge it correctly.'” The incident happened at about 10:45 p.m. local time.

According to NBC News, the venue’s security staff detained the man, who police told the outlet was taken to the hospital by ambulance to be treated for “superficial injuries.” A video posted on Twitter by Buzzfeed reporter Brianna Sacks shows what she said is the attacker being loaded into the ambulance. She wrote that the man “got his a** kicked by at least 10 people.”

The appearance was a part of the Netflix Is a Joke Festival, a live Netflix comedy festival that started April 28 and continues through May 8. Chappelle was performing at the Hollywood Bowl in Hollywood, California, at the time of the incident, according to his tour schedule.

Videos Showing Chappelle Being Tackled Live on Stage Circulated Widely on Twitter & Chappelle Later Commented on the Attack

“Dave Chappelle just got attacked on stage,” wrote one person on Twitter, sharing a slow-motion video of the incident.

A 32-second version of the video was shared by another fan on Twitter. It shows Chappelle reacting immediately after he was tackled.

Other commenters wrote that the man who attacked Chappelle was injured.

“Man That Attacked Dave Chappelle At His Show At Hollywood Bowl Has Hands Broken and Dislocated,” one person wrote on Twitter.

“Shouldn’t have done that,” a voice can be heard saying to the man on the video.

Another video shows security guards patting down a man, who is up against a temporary wall beyond a barricade. At least one other person can be seen taking video of the incident, while several others look on from the public area.

“Here’s the guy who jumped Dave Chappelle,” wrote the person who posted that video.

‘We’re Not Gonna Let Anything Happen to You,’ Foxx Told Chappelle After the Attack

After the attack, Chappelle continued the show and discussed the incident after calling fellow comedian Jamie Foxx on stage to join him.

“Whenever you’re in trouble, Jamie Foxx will show up in a sheriff’s hat,” Chappelle said.

Foxx joked that he thought the attack was a part of the show.

“I grabbed the back of that n****’s head,” Chappelle said. “His hair was spongy. Absorbent.”

He said he had never seen anything like that happen before.

“I’ve been doing this 35 years. I just stomped a n**** backstage,” Chappelle said. “I’ve always wanted to do that.”

Foxx said Chappelle is a “genius” and that he needs to be protected.

“Listen, I just want to say … this man is an absolute genius. We’ve got to make sure we protect him at all times,” Foxx said. “For every comedian that comes out here, this means everything. You’re a genius. You’re a legend … and we’re not going to let nothing happen to you,” Foxx said.

Deadline reported that attendees were not permitted to bring their phones inside, so video of the incident was sparse.

“Apparently, Chappelle was rushed by someone while onstage. Attendees’ phones were confiscated at the gate, so video and even photos are very sparse, but one video posted seemed to show the man smashing into someone holding a microphone, possibly Chappelle,” Deadline wrote.

How to build Brand Experience using Social Marketing?

Thinking about building brand experience through online contents?
Well, bloggers may appear to be a good way to create and promote your brand.

Why should you consider social media marketing for your brand:

  • Becuase your customers might prove to be “good” content providers.
  • Because your customers are brand messengers and influencers.
  • And finally because there is notheing wrong in asking your customers

Sure, there is a risk to scare them away, but you should go ahead and think about it. It’s not the Wild Wild West anymore; most of the users are conscious of their actions and will respect equity, objectives and your policies. Just regard the social media space in general and blogs in particular as another type of regular media to use, but with a very personal touch.

But opposed to most other media a blog is a living media: Content changes every day and your original subject gets out of focus with every post. In addition you will have bloggers that are more active than others, the so-called leaders (in the older days of the internet we had forums, not blogs, and we had administrators…).

No matter if your blog follows some basic rules that you have set and control, there are also implicit rules based on habits of your bloggers: length, style, manner…

And last but not least your blog is always subject to constant change and adaptation.

The main challenge for your brand is to find out if your social marketing strategy is in line with your overall brand positioning. If that’s the case your blog and the bloggers carry a lot of opportunities to build, establish and enhance your brand, despite the risks contained in such a strategy.

    Just figure out what a brand is: it’s a perception, a view, an opinion. As such one has to determine how that perception is built up.
    Today we have many sources, not least of which is advertising, the way a company behaves and the Customer Experience people enjoy.
    Having said that, it is clear that Social Media Marketing is a part of each brand.

Individual solutions using your own scripts

If your requirements cannot be met using the supplied scripts, it is also possible to create your own Powershell scripts. These scripts need to meet certain requirements to be used in Password Safe.

Storage location, name and call

The scripts must be saved in the following directory:
C:\ProgramData\MATESO\Password Safe and Repository Service\System\PowerShell

The scripts are saved in the format .ps1.

Structure of the scripts

The PowerShell scripts must have the following structure:

RunScript function

Password Safe always calls the RunScript function.

function RunScript
param (

The following standard parameters can be used here:

  • UserName: The user name for which the password should be changed
  • Password: The password that should be reset
  • CredentialsUserName: The user name of the user authorized to carry our the reset (e.g. administrator)
  • CredentialsPassword: The password of the authorized user

The scriptblock can be used when the script should run in the context of another user. The actual change is then carried out in the scriptblock.

It is important in this case that you provide Password Safe with feedback about what has been changed via a Write-Output. The following example simply uses the outputs true or false. However, it is also conceivable that an error message or similar is output.

$scriptBlock = {param ($UserName, $Password)
    // Make changes to SAP
    if($OK) {
        Write-Output "true"
    } else {
        Write-Output "false"

Naturally, CredentialsUserName and CredentialsPassword can also be directly used in the script (i.e. without the scriptblock). You can view the supplied MSSQL script as an example.

A credential then still needs to be created. This is then transferred to the scriptblock using the invoke command. It is also important in this case to provide Password Safe with feedback about all errors via Write-Output or throw [System.Exception].

Lofthouse Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Lofthouse Vineyard and wine label shares the name of its founders Rod and Di Lofthouse, an English couple (from Leeds, Yorkshire) who moved to New Zealand in the mid 1980's and bought a vineyard, having absolutely no winemaking experience whatsoever. They relied on their neighbours advice and assistance, creating a wine (de Gyffarde) that became somewhat iconic. The wine was so successful that the Giesen brothers, a well-known Marlborough wine producing family, offered to buy their estate. Today, world-class Sauvignon Blanc is still made from the same Marlborough vineyard that the Giesen brothers bought from Rod and Di many years ago. The Lofthouse Sauvignon Blanc is Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at its best - grassy, fresh and invigorating. The relative cool climate of the Marlborough wine region provides ideal growing conditions for this aromatic grape variety. The Lofthouse Sauvignon Blanc offers nettle and citrus character with a lovely crisp acidity.

Fungal Acne: How To Tell If You Have It, And How To Treat It

Jennifer E. Engen

For many people, any deviation from clear skin means it’s time for a treatment plan, especially when it comes to acne. Those inflamed bumps may be frustrating to manage, but what if we told you that what you’re experiencing isn’t actually acne? There’s a condition that can look eerily similar to what we think of as “traditional acne” (e.g. whiteheads, blackheads and red bumps), but is actually the result of an overgrowth of yeast in your hair follicles, also known as fungal acne.

What is fungal acne?

“Fungal acne” is really a bit of a misnomer. Though its symptoms can be very similar to bacterial acne, fungal acne is entirely different and isn’t even considered a type of acne at all.

“Fungal acne is a benign disorder that goes by the name Malassezia (pityrosporum) folliculitis or MF, where the ‘M’ refers to the yeast Malassezia,” said Marie Veronique, a chemist and esthetician. “While the development of acne and [fungal acne] follow similar pathways — starting with an overgrowth of a microorganism that feeds on sebaceous glands, leading to occlusion of the follicle followed by inflammation, infection and eruptions — the actual microorganisms differ.” In the case of traditional acne, the microorganism is bacteria; in the case of fungal acne, it’s yeast.

And while yeast is a natural part of our skin’s microbiome, it becomes an issue when there is an overgrowth of it.

What are the causes of fungal acne?

According to Dennis Gross, a board-certified dermatologist and founder of an eponymous skin care line, yeast likes to grow in warm, wet environments. One likely culprit: your sweaty workout clothes. The combination of heat and moisture is a haven for yeast overgrowth, and keeping your workout clothes on longer than necessary means you’re creating the ideal environment for yeast to thrive.

But sweaty workout gear isn’t the only thing that can create a warm, wet environment, as board-certified dermatologist and AmberNoon founder Erum Ilyas points out. “Hormonal fluctuations and humid environments [can cause] sweat to build up on our skin and become trapped underneath clothing,” she said. “While this sweat is intended to work as a thermoregulatory mechanism to cool our skin, if it doesn’t have the chance to evaporate, it can create an environment that allows yeast to flourish or overgrow.”

Other causes of fungal acne can involve taking steroids ― which can decrease your immune response to fungus and bacteria ― and taking antibiotics to treat acne vulgaris, which changes the skin’s bioflora and allows yeast to overgrow, Ilyas said.

What are the symptoms of fungal acne?

Fungal acne often bears a strong resemblance to bacterial acne, but there are a few differentiating factors, such as size. Fungal acne “can appear as red bumps or whiteheads just like bacterial acne,” Gross said, “but the biggest difference is that fungal acne spots are generally small and all the same size, while bacterial acne can be varying sizes and also show up as blackheads, nodules and cysts.”

For a visual reference, Ilyas said to think of each fungal acne lesion as pinhead size. Bacterial acne, on the other hand, can range from an inflamed papule about the size of a pencil eraser to a cystic nodule the size of a gumball.

Grace Cary via Getty Images

One of the best ways to prevent fungal acne is to immediately change out of your sweaty workout clothes.

The location of fungal acne is also something to consider. Fungal acne, like traditional acne, can occur anywhere there’s a hair follicle, but you’ll often see it more extensively through the full length of the back (as opposed to the upper back for traditional acne) and along the sides of the neck. The forehead is another prime location, as are the temple, hairline and chest.

Finally, unlike bacterial acne, which can be sore, tender and painful, fungal acne is typically itchy, likely from an immune response to the presence of the yeast in our pores, Ilyas explained.

How do you treat fungal acne?

Prevention is the No. 1 treatment for fungal acne. Make sure to immediately shower and change out of your sweaty workout clothes after a gym session. Look for moisture-wicking fabrics (especially when it comes to sports bras), as these will not only absorb sweat but actually release it into the air, Ilyas said. Also, if you sweat during the night, switch to bedsheets that are made of a breathable fabric.

Fungal acne can last two to three weeks. One big issue is that because it’s usually confused with bacterial acne, people mistakenly attempt to treat it with acne products, which can actually worsen and prolong its symptoms. Once fungal acne is diagnosed, though, Veronique said that oral and topical antifungals can bring relief very quickly.

For over-the-counter treatment, Ilyas recommended using a zinc pyrithione-based soap or shampoo as a body wash, two to three times a week, to reduce the buildup of yeast on the skin. Also, having a fan near your workout area ― or your bed, if you experience hot flashes at night ― can help cool the skin.

Ultimately, Ilyas said, your dermatologist will be able to make a true fungal acne diagnosis by looking at the whole picture: the location of the breakouts, the characteristics of each lesion and the scenario that triggered a flare.

The experts’ favorite products for preventing and treating fungal acne

HuffPost may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Every item is independently selected by the HuffPost Shopping team. Prices and availability are subject to change.

Vanicream Z-Bar

Ilyas recommended using this 2% zinc pyrithione medicated cleansing bar after exercising, as it can help reduce the spread and growth of yeast.

Get it from Amazon for $11.

Nizoral anti-dandruff shampoo

This OTC anti-dandruff shampoo contains 1% ketoconazole to combat yeast overgrowth. “The prescription option [for Nizoral] is 2% and can be considered if the [OTC] treatment fails,” Ilyas said.

Get it from Target for $15.

Selsun Blue medicated maximum strength dandruff shampoo

Veronique said that a selenium shampoo — commonly used for seborrheic dermatitis, also known as dandruff — can be used as a body wash to help manage fungal acne.

Get it from Amazon for $7.

100% cotton percale sheets

“Percale bed sheets can allow heat to escape from the skin, ultimately aiding in the prevention of yeast overgrowth,” Ilyas said. This option comes in a range of colors and sizes and is made with Indian long-staple combed cotton yarns to give you a cozy yet breathable sleep.

Get them from Amazon for $45.

Dear Brian,

It appears to me that "religions" most typically offer views that undergird the desire most folks have for maintaining their egotism(s). Allowing that to fade away - to non-exist - might lead (so to speak) to a higher (non-personal) consciousness.

Robert Paul Howard

Why do you think reincarnating to an animal woud be a demotion?? I happen to think they're quite superior to us, and if you don't believe me, you can just ask my puganese!

But seriously, I think Robert's response about egotism above helps to shed light on the human species as a whole. Throw in a sprinkle of narcissism, and bam! you've got a full-fledged human.

Religion, ironically, deflates the ego while inflating it. How many times have you heard how special we are in 'god's' eyes, lords and masters of all his creation, while we're simultaneously not worth the sweat on the rag that wiped Jesus glowing brow?

Being an animal person, so to speak, I do find that our collective attitude towards our non-human friends is a very nasty byproduct of our cultural upbringing, which has, of course, been 'informed' by xtianity. Even though we might reject it in its entirety, we still labor under its "values" and idiotic notions, often without realizing it.

If we truly wish to escape the bonds of religion, we must examine all our beliefs on all levels, and ask from whence they may have stemmed.

On to death - I certainly don't buy into the religious offerings of heaven and hell - how utterly, mindessly dull, especially heaven. *yawn* Yet, given some of my strange experiences in life, that continue to this day, I think I can say that I do believe consciousness, whatever the hell that is, doesn't just continue to exist in some form and other "level" of reality, it already DOES exist on some other level and form.

I also believe this because I can't explain the mind, emotions, consciousness as simple chemical soup and electrical brain storms. Unfortunately, religion, or our valid rejection of it, has kept those of us who find it all to be a bit much to stomach from exploring other possibilities to explain the great mystery that is consciousness and life itsef.

Atheism, of which I subscribe, has done a hard right turn on anything outside of materialism, and I find that just as difficut to swallow. We need to find some sane, rational, middle ground that is about true exploration and can resist dogmatization (is that a word?).

Robert, good point. The fear "I'm going to die!" has several points of resolution.

(1) Die -- don't. This is the religious approach. Solution to dying: not dying. Eternal life as a soul entity.

(2) I'm -- give it up. If there's no "I," there's no one to die. Philosophically, makes great sense.

Problem is, I still have an "I." So I want it to continue. When/if I don't, I won't.

Pandora, nice thoughts also. My dog is a better "person" than I am in many respects. As a vegetarian, I entirely agree with you that our humancentric attitude, which religion fosters, leads to much animal cruelty.

Consciousness strikes me as the middle ground of which you speak. God isn't obvious. Consciousness is.

Here's where science and spirituality can come together and ponder the greatest mystery of life: how it's possible for us to be conscious of pondering the greatest mystery of life, consciousness.

For short term gratification, 70 virgins could be the way to go, but there is no mention how attractive they are. What if they are 70 ugly virgins? If I'm going to blow myself up in a crowded marketplace, I want some guarantee. What if you are stuck humping the same 70 ugly virgins for eternity? That could get old after 60 trillion eons or so. Besides, virgins are a pain in the butt, all sorts of strings attached, whiney and emotional. Am I going to have to bitch-slap these whiney virgins all the time in order to get them to shut up? I'd rather have 70 good-looking whores.

I wonder where the need for 70 comes from. Is the number 70 symbolic of something?

Subjected to space-time conceptuality, all appearance must dis-appear. However, nothing phenomenal can happen to 'this that I am' because 'this that I am' is not, relatively.

Existence is objective and that I cannot be. However, since I have no personal, relative existence as "I", 'This that I am' is everything which appears and disappears extended in space and time whereby I am conscious of 'what I am'.

How can there be any "I" but I, I who am every thing and no thing? I who cannot even be as I?

To understand you will need to know that you are what I am.

Rationally speaking... whatever happens after death, we can't be any worse off than we were before we were born. Y'know? Even those who believe that after death there's "nothingness"... there's no reason to believe that this nothingness is any *more* nothingful than the nothingness of pre-birth... and that didn't stop us before!

Regarding Judaism... most of my tribe may not examine it this way... but I find it kinda Zen-like that in Jewish style, there's simply not much time and effort directed to the afterlife. It's like: our job is 100% about treating our fellow human beings, in *this* life, in the most correct, just, fair, charitable way. There's no need for our efforts to be focused on anything else.

tucson, here's another reason to be wary of the 70 virgin thing. What if they start acting like wives? See (and chuckle):

Stuart, your argument doesn't resonate with me. Let's see: I start off broke, then I make some money, then I go broke again.

So I'm supposed to be content because now I'm back to where I was before? Problem is, when I was broke (or non-existent) I didn't know what it was like to have money (or to exist).

Taking what I have away is different from never having had it at all, unless the memory of having once had it goes away also.

Anything that we claim to know can be a seed of dogmatization. The way to resist this is to look into the great questions (e.g., What am I?) And experience for ourselves that we simply don't know. And then do a practice: whenever we find ourselves drifting into an assumption that we know who we are, return to the big question, and re-discover the big Don't Know.

My Zen teacher used to talk about Socrates. (Who knows if he was being historically accurate, but hell, it's a teaching.) He said that Socrates used to go around Athens, exhorting everyone to "Know thyself." Eventtually, someone asked him, "Socrates, do YOU know yourself?" And Socrates said, "I don't know myself... but I UNDERSTAND this 'Don't Know'."

You may assume you have your wallet in your pocket. But when you go to pay for your latte and actually reach for your wallet, it may be nowhere to be found.

There's a similar practice for addressing this "I." If we think we've got one, take a moment and try to actually find it. If you can't find anything, then hmmm...

(I've blogged about my own work with this method; see
http://stuart-randomthoughts.blogspot.com/2007/10/different-styles-of-practice-part-7.html )

> When/if I don't, I won't.

Indeed. Sometimes "I/my/me" thinking appears and results in problems. E.g., if I'm thinking "I want to get something," then I'll suffer if I don't get it. If I DO get it, then suffering is delayed till that thing that I wanted inevitably disappears.

Throughout history, teachings and practices have been introduced, designed to fix the thought-patterns that cause suffering. BUT... even if thinking arises endlessly, it's not constant. Even the stickiest thoughts appear and disappear. There are gaps in between, when the I-thought is absent, and there's only extreme quiet and stillness.

Various techniques are medicinally effective in treating the symptoms of the I-thought. But it may be useful to remember that whenever there ISN'T I/my/me-thinking, then there's no need for any of those teachings and techniques.

Brian wrote...

Right. I'm assuming that when "I" disappear, memory disappears also. So it's NOT like being stuck in the void, bitterly thinking, "Wow, it sucks not having an 'I.' How I long for those good old days before 'I' disappeared!" Rather, there's only vast emptiness. It's the same vast emptiness out of which 'I' appeared when I was born. Since this emptiness has generated an 'I' before (at birth), I wouldn't put it past "emptiness" to re-generate 'I' once again (after death).

I think I found the answer to the topic of death and the afterlife.....there isn't one.

All we can do is rest in the uncertainty of the whole thing and be present to each moment that we're given each day.

Agreed. Nothing to do but find out...sometimes I'm cool with that, sometimes not, but there doesn't seem to be much choice in the matter.

Religions should offer a better deal on death:

The term jatismaran gnan means to know and be aware of what one was in the previous life.

Gnanis have this. Srimad Rajchandra saw his 900 previous lives at the age of 7 when he saw human beings burn a corpse on a funelral pyre.

Gnani Dadashri has a whole book on this, and I have helped translate it. it is free on the web at the www.dadashri.org web site.

The url for this is

It answers many questions that human beings have about death and the life after.

-jake harris

I was is a medically induced coma. The result of meningitis/encephalitis. I had been bitten by a mosquito that infected me with West Nile Virus. The experience was life changing, not in positive, white light way either. That pain was so intense that I suffered in the coma. My prognosis was very poor. I had come to terms with my demise, pain was not an option. Suffering of this caliber, was confusing and unimaginable.
I was never afraid. Losing the fear of death is not always a benefit. This fear is tied to survival.

I knew when I came out of the coma that somehow I missed my exit ramp. No fear of death and no belief in eternal consequences will make you an abrupt and intolerant individual.

I am Delaware Indian, I have known always an absolute truth, that the world we exist in is a busy place, occupied by a variety of individuals. I feel my ancestors around me, always have. They are comforting, but are a force of will. My birth was attended by tribal leaders, they arrived without the benefit of notification. I have, since I can recall, been surrounded by this will. I don't feel anyone I know, like my Dad. Their sudden departure en mass will move my hair. So, I have an idea of what my death entails. The only that thing I feel is sure: your death is based completely on your life. Simple: live bad, die bad and not only physical death but the actual transition to the world next. You are your own final judge. Others judgment is of no consequence.

Last year my Father died "bad". I warned him,to make right his wrongs immediately but, he never accepted the fact his demise was eminent. I am angry still, never have I felt the grief I have witnessed in others. He hurt people in his last years. That hurt was on his own face when he left. He knew then, fear and panic set in. He created his suffering, somehow I find that deplorable.

My ex-husband finally got used to being with someone who would wake up and inform who would die and when. This particular insight makes my family uneasy. The only time I was off was my own time, I thought my child was going.

Your ingrained belief system shapes the next step.
Man is the constructor of that world by attitudes, intent and personal desires here, in this time.
Mine will be different from anyones, like my personality. I shaped it here.
Various cultures strive to reach a state of semi-consciousness, on the precipice of some undefinable divide. At this state it becomes apparent, this concept of death. I was at this point throughout my coma.

One more thing.. I heard and understood everything in my unconscious state(for future reference).

I don't mean to argue, but simply to correct some of your conclusions.

Your understanding of Hinduism is based on Advaita Vedanta which is not the end all of Hindu philosophy. "Hinduism" itself is not one religion but a collection of religions that the British mistakenly put under one umbrella.

Within the myriad of dharmic philosophies, Heaven is described as a combination of all the above with slight changes. If one were to read the epics - the Mahabharata and Ramayana, you would walk away with a more traditional understanding of heaven (i.e. soul goes to both heaven and hell based on karma and then is reincarnated. Heaven is a place of royal splendor, lots of good, no bad, etc.)

Just thought I'd clear that up,

I stumbled on this site by chance and I cannot resist participating. If you want a better deal on death, just tell yourself, "When I die I am going to....." and peace be with you. Religions fascinate me, and all the different customs they are packaged with. Reality is, you are born, you live, you die. Thats it. I don't know, but after a person dies, dosn't their body rot away and the mind with it? I don't think anyone has ever witnessed a spirit or soul floating up into the heavens. RIGHT! How could I forget, they are invisible! *Slaps Forehead* Death is good because it is the end of a long journy, hopefully one that was much enjoyed.

Here is a touch of death and the here after. Imagine this.

A beautiful baby fawn grazing on the surrounding shrubbery, loving life and the churchless church. Out of nowhere a pack of wolves appear, starved and savage. They surround the fawn, and in a moment they tear it to shreds and devour it.

I don't see god or religion, but reality and truth. People can make up all sorts of fruitless stories (religions) about truths they wish to ignore. Death is the final chapter.

I could drone forever, but I will spare you lovely, beautiful people.

Peace and forgive my blunt language.

This bridge no longer exists!

View Archived National Bridge Inventory Report - Has Additional Details and Evaluation

This historic bridge was demolished February 2011!

This bridge appears to be one of Michigan's most important metal stringer bridges, although the historic bridge inventory apparently did not recognize its significance, probably because the hired out-of-state consultant who produced the inventory was not adequately versed in Michigan bridge history.

This appears to be one of the oldest examples of a bridge with original R4 railings in the state, and is also an example of a bridge which was either a transitional bridge or a prototype bridge as the state highway department moved from one standard plan to a new standard plan for stringer bridges. The old plan included stringers with a unique concrete balustrade design and a decorative concrete encasement over the outermost stringer (fascia beam) to give the bridge an overall appearance of a concrete bridge when it was in fact a steel stringer. This plan was abandoned for the new plan which did not  include the concrete facade on any stringer beams, and began the use of R4 railings. Most of the other earliest instances of bridges with original R4 railings on them are dated to around 1935, while the last of the concrete facade and balustrade stringers date to 1932 or earlier. The Berry Road Bridge, with a construction date of 1932, features the R4 railings, but also features the concrete facade seen in the concrete balustrade plan bridges of the late 1920s and early 1930s.

The R4 railings on Berry Road were determined to be original (and not a later alteration/addition) because the inset design on their concrete railing posts is the oldest design. If the railings were not original they would have more than likely featured the more common keyhole design on the concrete railing posts. In addition no alteration to the bridge is recorded or was observed during on-site inspection. Further, the railings showed signs of major rusting and deterioration, something more common on the oldest R4 railings. The later instances of R4 railings in the 1950s and 1960s were galvanized and have held up better.

As such, the 108th Avenue Bridge appears to be an extremely rare bridge which shows a transition from a bridge like Cleveland Avenue Bridge to bridges like M-21 Grand River Bridge.

Constructed in 1932, the Berry Road Bridge is not only one of the earliest surviving examples of a bridge using the R4 railing design, it appears to have indeed been built in the very first year the railing was ever used in Michigan. All older examples identified in Michigan used the concrete balustrade railings. This new metal R4 railing design would go on to be used extensively in Michigan for the next 30 years, and indeed defined the appearance and aesthetics of Michigan bridges for the middle part of the 20th century. Even today, bridge historians and the general public alike associate this railing design with Michigan. Only Canada (particularly Ontario) used a similar railing design extensively. As such, this bridge should be considered historically significant as a prototypical example of a bridge and railing design that would go on to dominate Michigan bridge construction for decades. The bridge is an exceedingly rare example of this prototype design, with the 108th Avenue Bridge being the only other identified example.

R4 railings are the decorative railings that would give the gift of beauty to Michigan stringer bridges until the 1960s. For roughly 30 years, Michigan used these railing panels, fitted between railing post designs that varied over time and from bridge to bridge between a few different styles. The R4 railing has defined much of Michigan's 20th century historic bridges.

Unfortunately, the Berry Road Bridge's railings have suffered from severe deterioration. A lack of paint on them combined with winter deicing salts likely contributed to this. Preservation of this bridge would likely require replacement of the railings, however MDOT reportedly maintains a stock of R4 railings salvaged from other replacement projects, and in addition R4 railings could still be refabricated today if needed.

Although the National Bridge Inventory structural ratings suggest that rehabilitation would have been feasible for this bridge (Superstructure: Poor [4] Substructure: Fair [5] Deck: Poor [4]), Jackson County has chosen to demolish and replace this historic bridge. The configuration of Michigan's Local Bridge Program may have contributed to the decision to replace this bridge, since it provides demolition and replacement funds just as easily as rehabilitation funds, even if replacement might be more costly. With the demolition of this bridge, the 108th Avenue Bridge might be the only example of this prototypical design left in Michigan.
