Understanding the synergy between magnesium and vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is crucial for bone health, overall well-being, and disease prevention. Magnesium is pivotal in converting vitamin D into its active form, calcitriol (1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25(OH)2D]), vital for calcium absorption in the body. Magnesium is essential for the activity of enzymes involved in the metabolism of vitamin D, serving as a necessary cofactor for the biochemical reactions in the liver and kidneys. This conversion significantly influences bone health and helps prevent osteoporosis and osteopenia.
Prof Prabhat Ranjan has been identified by Outlook Magazine as one of the visionaries to take India towards a $ 5 Trillion economy
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has projected India to become a $5 trillion economy with the third largest GDP in 2027-28, early in the ‘Amrit Kaal’ on the path to achieving the goal of becoming an advanced economy by 2047. “Outlook” magazine has tried to identify “visionaries” of India under whose guidance, India is moving towards achieving this goal in a special anniversary edition.
Prof Prabhat Ranjan’s talk at 29th IAEA Fusion Energy Conference, London on “Energy Justice and Social Licensing”
Transcript of the talk
ARTURO(Moderator):
So I’ll move us to a global context. You gave a really great introduction of in the US what’s being done.
And I’d like to pass this next question to Prabhat. Prabhat, as the fusion ecosystem moved towards the fusion pilot plants and commercialization, what concerns do you see regarding the global south’s role in the process? And what opportunities do you envision in this process?
PRABHAT RANJAN(Panelist):
Thank you. Global South is not only a geographical concept. It’s also an economic concept. And that economic concept keeps changing. And the countries that are part of the global south are not really fixed. Today, if I take from Steve’s talk, he talked about the industrial revolution. If I see economy before that, from 1st AD to 1800 AD, it was India and China, which was producing maximum 20 % to 30 % of global manufacturing was happening in India and China. It was industrial revolution which changed the games. And things moved to global north at that time. And the countries like India became poorer in that process.
I returned from the USA after finishing my Ph.D. at the University of California, Berkeley in 1986 to Kolkata. My research work was on Nuclear Fusion and it was carried out at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory(LBL) using the fastest computers of the world at that time(CRAY-1, CRAY-2) set up as part of the Magnetic Fusion Energy Computer Center(MFECC) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory(LLNL).
An elixir made out of Apple Cider Vinegar, Garlic, ginger, lemon and honey seems to work miracle in clearing coronary arteries
On Dec 22, 2019, I had mild pain in my chest and it persisted for few hours and after getting ECG test done, I was told that there may be some issue with heart and I was admitted to hospital. Next day an angiography was carried out and I was informed that 3 arteries had blockages and one of them had 100% blockage and immediate angioplasty was carried out and a stent was put in that artery. I was told that they can take care of other two arteries after an year or so as they were not fully blocked. I came home after about one week and took medicines and other precautions as advised. From Jan 13, 2020, I started to go to office for short periods and started to feel physically better.
