Tech entrepreneur Mukesh Bansal has been a lifelong student of human performance optimisation. He has studied the science behind it, and worked closely with high performers across business, sports and entertainment, to understand what it takes to transcend apparent limitations and achieve true potential. Through his entrepreneurial experience and studying the field of health and fitness, Bansal came to understand the enormous power of plasticity: the ability of the human brain to rewire itself at will as we develop new skills. He also realised that high performers across domains rely on common tools that were embraced by ancient wisdom and are validated by modern science. Knowing that high performance is not a matter of genetics or luck is highly empowering. No Limits distils Bansal's findings on talent, deliberate practice, mindset, habit, willpower and learning. It is a guide to maximising one's potential with well-defined strategies. So, no matter what you do, you can be a superior version of yourself, performing at increasingly better levels, constantly reaching higher.
We live in a world where there is a new fad diet, superfood, supplement or nutrition theory every month. There are so many tricks to optimizing workouts, peak performance, burning fat, living longer, sleeping better and biohacking your immune system. Wellness has become a part of mainstream discourse like never before, and the result is an overwhelming barrage of seemingly contradictory information. But here's one simple truth: good health impacts every aspect of life, be it productivity at work, interpersonal relationships or a balanced family life. In Hacking Health, Mukesh Bansal takes on the mammoth task of demystifying the science, simplifying the research and tracing the story of our relationship with our body. Through a combination of personal experience and cutting-edge science, this is a book that draws from ancient wisdom and also debunks unscientific myths to help you make smart choices in pursuit of good health. From nutrition and fitness to sleep and immunity, weight management and mental health to ageing and longevity, this book delves into the breadth and depth of holistic health and helps you navigate the lines between science and pseudoscience. Can we use science to hack the human body's functioning and be our most efficient, fittest and happiest selves? Hacking Health takes a 360-degree approach to answer this very question and help you unlock your body's potential.

Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) has become the most widely used method for pharmaceutical analysis, as it ensures accuracy, specificity and reproducibility for the quantification of drugs, while avoiding interference from any of the excipients that are normally present in pharmaceutical dosage forms. This book presents a simple methodology for developing stability-indicating methods and offers a ‘how-to guide’ to creating novel stability-indicating methods using liquid chromatography. It provides the detailed information needed to devise a stability-indicating method for drug substances and drug products that comply with international regulatory guidelines. As such, it is a must-read for anyone engaged in analytical and bioanalytical chemistry: professionals at reference, test, and control laboratories; students and academics at research laboratories, and scientists working for chemical, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology companies.
Plant extracts or their pure natural constituents have been used traditionally for thousands of years for treating diseases with considerable success in India and other Asian countries. In addition, they have also been used as complements or supplements with conventional medicine. This book discusses the latest research in the application of combination therapy, namely herbs and drugs, in the treatment of a range of communicable and non-communicable diseases to achieve a synergistic effect. This synergy may help in reducing the amount of drug, its toxicity, side effects, and development of resistance as well as improve its efficacy. The book also discusses the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic parameters, experimental tools to determine the impact of combination, computational approaches to identify synergy, statistical analysis of data, and clinical and regulatory issues. The book is useful for researchers in the fields of pharmacology, pharmacy and medicinal chemistry and those working in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries. This book could open up new strategies to focus on multiple targets to combat complex diseases unlike the single targeted drugs that are being currently marketed by the pharmaceuticals industries.
Preface Microbial biotechnology and food biotechnology are important disciplines of biotechnology. Microbes are known for their beneficial as well as harmful role in human life. In harmful aspect, microbes are known to spoil the food and causing diseases to humans. In beneficial, microbes play important role in various food developments. A large number of microbes based products and processes are part of continuously expanding food industry. Microbes are well known for their primary and secondary metabolites that have industrial importance particularly in food industry. This book has been designed and written for UG/PG students of Biotechnology, Microbiology, Food Science & Technology, Dairy Technology and related disciplines along with the students preparing for various competitive exams. The content has been designed according to the syllabus of UG/ PG programs. This book will help the readers for instant knowledge gain on the written topics. The book is useful for examination point of view. The topics have been written in concise and easy understandable form. The content of book has been distributed in five sections including (1) Microorganisms and Food, (2) Microbial Food Products, (3) Novel Foods and Ingredients, (4) Food Packaging: Roles and Materials, and (5) Microbial Enzymes in Food Processing Industry. Sample questions and suggested readings have also been given for each section. Broadly, the book covers the relations of microbes with food, food spoilage, food borne microbial diseases, fermented foods, dairy products and novel foods (SCP, water binding agents, microbial polysaccharides, etc.). The book also covered the role of food packaging, packaging materials and their applications. Microbial products are of biological origin and considered safe as compared to synthetic and chemical formulations.
