Chaseâs new 5% minimum payment: An increase so onerous, it would make a loan sharkâs mother proud. Mar 15th, 2009. Considering that this (February 13, 2009) post that I have found entitled, âChase Raises Minimum Payments on Credit Cards, Adds Fee,â is on a website with the name, The Truth About Credit Cards.com, I see some irony.
Hypercapnia, also known as CO2 retention, hypercapnea, and hypercarbia, is a condition of abnormally elevated carbon dioxide (CO 2) levels in the blood. Carbon dioxide is a gaseous product of the body's metabolism and is normally expelled through the lungs. Hypercapnia normally triggers a reflex which increases breathing and access to oxygen, such as arousal and turning the head during sleep.
What Is Dextrose? Dextrose is a simple sugar that occurs naturally in many foods such as honey and fruit. The more complex carbohydrates in other foods must be broken down into dextrose in the body before they can be used to provide energy for optimal functioning of the human body and brain. Dextrose and glucose are not the same. Dextrose is a monosaccharide glucose that occurs naturally in a very pure form. Because it has a very high glycemic index, dextrose can be absorbed and used very quickly by the body. For this reason, many athletes use dextrose to quickly replace the glycogen stores in the muscles which are depleted during exercise.
