[What is Rhodiola Rosea]

Rhodiola Rosea (also known as Arctic root or golden root) is a member of the family Crassulaceae, a family of plants native to the arctic regions of Eastern Siberia. Rhodiola rosea is widely distributed  in Arctic and mountainous regions throughout Europe and Asia. It grows at altitudes of 11,000 to 18,000 feet above sea level.

There are numerous animal and test tube studies showing that rhodiola has both a stimulating and a sedating effect on the central nervous system; enhance physical endurance; improves thyroid, thymus, and adrenal function; protects the nervous system, heart and liver; and has antioxidant and anticancer properties.

[Function]

1 Enhancing immunity and delaying aging;

2 Resisting radiation and tumor;

4 Protecting cardiovascular, dilating coronary artery,preventing coronary arteriosclerosis and arrhythmia.

A song about Macromolecules (a.k.a. Biomolecules, Carbon-Based Molecules, or the molecules of life) and Nutrition (Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins, and Nucleic Acids), based on PSY’s “Gangnam Style.”

Lyrics written by, song performed ,and Powerpoint slide show done by a simple high school science teacher named Mr. Hsu.

This song and video have been made solely for educational purposes. Its level of depth and detail into various macromolecules (biomolecules) are aimed at High School Biology students (at least the ones I teach). If you find errors or omissions (i.e. I didn’t discuss enzymes), this is due to the fact that I’m trying to make a song that appeals to students, AND I’m being constrained by describing a relatively complex topic through a highly repetitive song that was originally written in Korean.

Of course, a big reason for making this video was how viral the song became…

I also performed this song for my students in class before our macromolecule test. If you’re lucky, you might find a video of such a live performance somehwere in the vast internet (quite a few of them were recording me singing and dancing it in class, after all). A full music video with teachers dancing was also made. I’m sure you’ve found it by now…

Lyrics:

Molecules Gone Wild!
Bio Style!

Carbohydrates provide the energy for your life!
The simplest form, like glucose, is known as a monosaccharide
Combine two, and make a larger sugar called disaccharide
The largest is a polysaccharide!

Lipids are the fats!
3 fatty acids with a glycerol make up the fats:
Triglycerides with only single bonds are saturated fats,
But if there’re double bonds they now become unsaturated fats
Don’t eat too much fat!

Monomers build to polymers filled
With C, H, O! Hey!
Molecule’s macro! Hey!

One with HO, other with H, so
Bond and go! Hey!
Release H2O! Hey!

Dehydration Synthesis is underway!!!

Molecules Gone Wild!
Bio Style
Mol-Mol-Mol-Mol Molecules Gone Wild!
Bio Style
Mol-Mol-Mol-Mol Molecules Gone Wild!

Many Polymers-mers-mers-mers:
Molecules Gone Wild!
Many Polymers-mers-mers-mers!

Proteins: the building blocks that make up your whole body
Your skin, your hair, your muscles – need protein to get the hotties!
Break down polypeptide to amino acids in your body
Nitrogen comes to the party!

Nucleic Acids!
The famous one is DNA that’s known by all you kids
With 2 polynucleotide chains linked to make it valid,
Which breaks into single nucleotides when it’s digested;
Phosphorous added!

When you eat food, to get in the mood (to study),
Molecules will flow! Hey!
Straight down your throat! Hey!

Need to break those big polymers, so
Here’s H2O! Hey!
Splits to H and O! Hey!

Hydrolysis is what I just now displayed!!!

Molecules Gone Wild!
Bio Style
Mol-Mol-Mol-Mol Molecules Gone Wild!
Bio Style
Mol-Mol-Mol-Mol Molecules Gone Wild!

Many Polymers-mers-mers-mers:
Molecules Gone Wild!
Many Polymers-mers-mers-mers!

Food deforms
Into its simplest forms!
When you eat it, break it down,
Then it reforms!

Now you’re informed!
So please study more!
Study, Study,
Read your notes and textbook

You know what I’m saying?

Molecules Gone Wild!

Why it Works for
F21 is an All Natural Sugar Blocker that helps limit your blood sugar absorption. It consists of different compounds found to have various health benefits, such as L-Arabinose, Coriolus Versicolor Polysacchride, Konjac-Mannan, Magnesium Stearate, Mint flavor: Menthol and Natural Colors. F21 not only does it help promote weight loss, (PSK) boosts your immune system response. In fact, for every gram of F21, you can block up to 20 grams of sugar (sucrose). The formula not only helps promote weight loss, it benefits the digestive system by allowing the blocked sucrose to support beneficial probiotic bacteria while the polysaccharide (PSK) boosts your immune system response.
But how does this formula break down the sugar in our bodies? There are basically three steps:
STEP 1
Sugar (sucrose) enters the body as a whole molecule.
STEP 2
The enzyme “sucrose” separates the sucrose molecule into two individual sugar molecules, Glucose and Fructose, which then enter the blood stream to be used. F21 inhibits sucrose from separating the sucrose molecule.
STEP 3
Instead of the sugars entering the blood stream, the whole sucrose molecule and F21 remain in the digestive tract and become prebiotics.
The main ingredient in F21 is L-Arabinose, which helps prevent sugar (sucrose) from being metabolized in the body. It also helps to satisfy any cravings for sugar. Another ingredient, Polysaccharide (PSK), is an extremely powerful antioxidant and immune-regulatory defender. It’s well researched anti-tumor, anti-infection and anti-inflammation effects help repair damaged cells and support the immune system.
Konjac-Mannan is a natural appetite suppressant. It acts as a trigger signaling your stomach to feel a little more satisfied and can help to reduce hunger cravings.
Prebiotics are indigestible fibers that are food for the probiotics. Both F21 and the whole sucrose molecule remain in the large intestine and become food for probiotics.
Menthol is an organic compound made synthetically or obtained from cornmint, peppermint or other mint oils. Menthol has local anesthetic and counterirritant qualities, and it is widely used to relieve minor throat irritation. It is known to be a powerfully medicinal compound linked to several potential health benefits. Peppermint oil, a natural source of menthol, has been investigated as a treatment for several diseases and conditions.
Magnesium stearate, also called octadecanoic acid, is manufactured from both animal and vegetable oils and this is the reason why some nutritional supplements specify that the magnesium stearate used is sourced from vegetables.
