A twist on popular polished granite, honed granite gives a soft, matte finish instead of the traditional glossy look. Like polished granite, honed granite is just as resistant to scratching, chipping, cracking and heat, making it one of the most durable kitchen countertop options around.
Galactosemia (Galactosaemia) is a rare genetic metabolic disorder that affects an individual's ability to metabolize the sugar galactose properly. Galactosemia is not related to and should not be confused with lactose intolerance. Galactosemia follows an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance that confers a deficiency in an enzyme responsible for adequate galactose degradation. Goppert first described the disease in 1917, with its cause as a defect in galactose metabolism being identified by a group led by Herman Kalckar in 1956.
Galactose, also known as brain sugar is similar to glucose, although it is not as sweet. It gives a greater amount of energy than granulated sugar with a smaller amount of product. Galactose is not generally available for home use, since it does not dissolve easily in liquids like sugar does.alactose is an important component of the messaging system that operates between cells. They need to have a way to send messages to each other about what kinds of cells they are. If this system didn't exist, then individual cells would not be able to tell whether other cells in the body are friendly or not.
