What can I do to help her? I can't stop her, and I CAN'T TELL an adult... Its not that bad...Yet..
Answer:
Its not a matter of how bad it is, but the fact that she is harming herself in this way, and believe me it will get worse.
I am a former bulemic, and once you get in the habit, its hard to break. Even now if I eat a particually large meal, I still think, hmmm, if I could get to the bathroom without my partner noticing...
So you need to chat with her quite seriously... someone needs to help her, and it needs to be professional help. I know thats hard for you, but there is nothing you can say that will change her way of thinking, its all in her head.
And bulemia is not necessarily about weight or weight loss, its mostly about control, and control your body, and what you put into (or take out of) your body. It can be quite empowering to do this to your body.
The fact she has told you is a cry for help. Please dont not do anything, you must help her, or she could suffer the consequences for the rest of her life.
Good luck! ;-)
Try intimidating an adult. Maybe he'll tell you.
you need to become more informed about this terrible eating disorder.your friend is lucky to have a friend who cares . this disorder can damage tissue in the throat from gastric juices. it also puts a strain on the heart. check websites for eating disorders and please do it now. you are right, you cant tell her what to do but you can steer her in the right direction. suggest she see a doctor if she has lost self control. good luck.
yes you cannot tell an adult directly because she will no longer trust but you need to know that this is very serious matter and you can't not do something to help. try talking to her... urge her to talk to her parents herself, ask her to see the school psychologist if anything. tell her that she doesnt need to loose weight and especially not that way. and that bulimia is very damaging to the body and it can even cause DEATH.

How to help a?
hangover?
Answer:
Unfortunately, there isn't really much you can do about a hangover from my experience! When you get drunk you become dehydrate, so make sure to drink lots of water...but don't drink it fast and make sure it's not too cold or that might make you sick. The best thing you can do is sleep though! Good luck!
give them gatorade its helps them alot and keep them close to the bathroom what ever you do dont give them milk well not unless you want it all over your floor and for food some soup would help lol yeah i got experience thats what works for me
hawaiian Punch or McDonalds Orange Drink...and greasy cheeseburgers...
All you can really do is suffer through it. And next time you go out partying remember how bad you felt with the hangover and don't do drink. You can have just as much fun without the booze and keeping your head together then being in the "out of it" state of mind. You will also be less likely of getting raped, if you have your head on straight.
Spoken like a mom of three young adults. Good luck.
make a tomato beer.
fill 1/2 of an 8 oz glass with v8 and the rest with beer. It will help your stomach and your head.
my cure is a Pepsi and a hamburger this is what i always have if i overindulge. It is something that i know will stay down and that is what you need when you are hungover to feel better. I don't think it matters what you drink and eat as long as you get fluid in you and some sort of food.

How to have health walk ?
Answer:
Gal.5:25 if we live by the Sprit, let us also walk by the Spirit
Eph. 3:11 according to the eternal purpose which He made in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Walking by the Spirit will produce transformation, a metabolic change in our being. Such a change is not the product of outward correction or adjustment. If you deliberately try to behave as child of God, you will act in a religious way. You may think to yourself, “I must maintain my status as a child of God. This means that I should not argue with my spouse.” This is religious. Our need is to live by the Spirit and then walk by the Spirit. This is not a matter of outward adjustment, but of inward, metabolic transformation. Furthermore, this has nothing to do with religion, for it is altogether a matter of an organic change in our being. When we live by the Spirit and walk by the Spirit, God is spontaneously lived out of us and is expressed through us. Then, in reality and practicality, we are sons of God living by God’s life and walking by this life.
Moment by moment, we need to breathe the divine life into us. Then, instead of acting in ourselves and walking by the flesh, we shall do everything by the Spirit whom we receive by breathing. Our need today is to practice receiving the Spirit and walking by the Spirit. This is not religion or ethics. This is the experience of the living Spirit
First be sure that you are healthy enough for the type of walking that you plan to do. Make sure you dress appropriately for the weather, and have roomy walking shoes that support your feet well. Take along a water bottle if it's very hot, or you plan an extended walk. In hot weather --if sweating isn't enough to keep you cool-- you might want to take along a squirt bottle (set on spray %26 full of water). Other people often ask me to squirt them on such days(;!

How to grow taller?
Hey guys i just wanna kno how to grow taller, im 5"5" and 15 i kno drink a lotta milk and food stuff but is there anything like pull-ups? alsoi have white marks on my nails is that because a lack of calcium or calcium build up? plleease help (my dads 6"2 and moms 5"2)
Answer:
You can grow taller by streching your arms and legs a lot, plus, that builds flexability.
you can grow by doing pull ups.. it would help for you to eat healthy.. btu it wont give you the best results... ther esults migth just be .1-1 inch...
nobody can change your hieght..
Maybe you just got more of your moms jeans- but guys dont usually hit their growth spurt untill their a little older then you.
the white dots on your nails are totally normal too- lots of people have them.
Hey there, There is probably nothing much you can do to make yourself grow taller. It is a genetic thing, but my advise is to not get to uptight about it. You are in a period of really strange growth patterns, and you will probably have another growth spurt. In the mean time, I bet you don't take a multi vitamin, and don't get all the nutrientsyou really need...hence the rings on your nails. What I'd do is eat as healthy as you can and still feel like a teen, take a multi vitamin, and drink plenty of water. Along with exercise, you are givingyour growing body the best chance of growing healthy, and that'sthe important part! :)
True, lack of calcium is critical for the bones, you definitely have some signs of lack of calcium, take Calcium + Vitamin D supplements.Vitamin D helps the bones to absorb the calcium..make sure to take 2 pills before you go to sleep...also play Basketball

How to go about confronting her?
Hi..I've moved out of home as I'm at uni, but today my mom called me about my 15-year-old sister. She's pretty sure she has an eating disorder of some kind, due to various clues...the first is, she's found bags stuff with food under my sister's bed. This is food she's been given to eat while at school, and partially food my mom made for dinner which my sister hid and brought back up to her room instead of eating it. My mom got a bit scared and read a bit of my sister's diary while she was away for a few days...not really something I support but she's very worried. Anyway in the diary was a page with the words "I will not eat" written out a couple hundred times.
Listening to this I'm pretty sure she has an eating disorder too, especially as I saw her the other day and she did seem a bit paranoid about her weight (she's neither fat not unhealthily skinny, she's actually just right, but she seemed a little weird about staying for dinner). My mom isn't sure what to do. Any suggestions?
Answer:
I've been in your shoes, twice.
First, you or your mom should confront her and say that you found the bags of food (nothing about the diary reading or she might get really upset and uncooperative). Tell her you're worried for her, and try to get her to say what caused this. Try to find out how long she's been doing this, and if she makes herself throw up too. Two of my close friends have been through this, and I hope your sister's case is not that serious. Let's hope it's just some teenage identity crisis and not a medical problem already.
Either way, definitely have her see a nutritionist. The doctor should be able to run some simple tests to prove her she's not overweight (since you say she's not), and especially see if the levels of minerals in her system (iron, calcium, etc) aren't too low. They often drop with eating disorders. He should give her healthy tips on how to obtain a more graceful body (yes, exercise. A very good common tip but people tend to take it more seriously when they hear it from a doctor's mouth).
Don't scare or pressure her to change right away. Just let her know you're on her side. She just has to realize this is a real health-threatening problem, with effects ranging from hair falling off and unhealthy teeth to shrinking of the uterus and losing your periods, and even death in the most serious cases.
One of my friends is now completely over this, and the other -almost. The longer you stick with a bad practice, the harder it is to give it up, but in both cases what made them stop was a change in their way of thinking. You just have to try and trigger that in your sister from the outside.
Another thing I've learned from talking to my friends: people with eating disorders want to be impossibly thin, but not for the sake of thinness itself. It's something that gives them an illusion of control on their life, a way of proving one's worth or punishing oneself, or simply coping with extreme stress. It's quite messed up, and as I said, the change must come from within.
I'm sorry I'm not an expert so I can help more. Good luck.
As her sister maybe you should try talking to her, go on a girly day out for shopping and lunch and have a good chat about everything and see if anything comes up about it.
ask her about it but don't lay down the law! tell her that its ok and your here to help!
good luck!
therapy
dont confront or she might not feel like talking to someone that close to her.
i used to have a disorder... (not eating one) but i never wanted to tell anyone in my family. i had to talk to another person.
good luck.
The only thing I know that works is an intervention with a professional.
Have your parents see if it is covered in their health insurance.
have her mom sign her up for a gym memborship maybe GOLDS if youve heard of it then wether she's fat skinny or just right she can have a nice tone cut to her to and maybe she'd stop this weird disorder. If she is honestly not fat at allllll then maybe it's a diff problem and she should see a psychiatrist
ring a help line. hope she'll be ok.
just tell her that the food has been found under her bed and tell her you know whats going on. show her some images on anorexia and that will soon put her off. tell her what not eating can do to you ie- make you infertile and not to mention all the other dangeous
I think you can be safe in assuming she has a problem. Unless it is an elaborate practical (and unfunny) joke.
Straight talking, but understanding confrontation is the best tactic. Read up on the symptoms so you know your stuff. You might want to visit her GP for advice first.
Tough situation, good luck.
Maybe your sister would be more comfortable if you confronted her rather than her mom. I am the same age as your sister and I would much rather talk about something with my older sister than my mom. Your closer to her age than your mom and you would understand better. But if your mom really wants to confront her than tell her to just ask her if anything is wrong and if she is ok. She will either tell her if she wants to or she won't be ready. Then have your mom watch for another day see if she does it again. And then if she does then your mom should have someone else ask her about and see if she will confess it to them.
You are all in way over your heads. Get professional help.
Well you need to tell your mom to make her eat with everybody and so you will know.Also you need to show her some pictures of people that have or had eating disorders and let people talk to her that had eating disorders or take her to a therapist.
She's probably having someone eat her food. Check under the bed at night.
Get help for your sister immediately. Eating disorders can be life threatening if left untreated. However, many individuals can fully recover if given the right help.
There are many levels to eating disorders, and an individual does not necessarily have to be super skinny to have a disorder. Eating disorders are psychological disorders and not necessarily related to food directly. It is best to consult a psychologist, who is professionally trained to help people like your sister. It is almost a garuantee that your sister will initially deny that there is any problem because her mind is literally killing her own body. She needs all the love and support you can give her during this difficult time. She is fighting a battle with her mind and needs your unconditional love.
There are thousands of websites that discuss symptoms and treatment options for all types of eating disorders. The best thing to do is act quickly.
Your mom is the adult here not the child. She needs to take her to the doctor or the hospital for to get treatment. There is no "mom is not sure what to do" in this case as it is cut and dried. Mom is the adult and she needs to make a doc appointment and take your sister to get help. She needs to alert the doc when she makes the appointment and she should just tell your sis she has made an appointment with the doc for check up and take her. Why your mother didn't take care of this as soon as she read the diary and found the food etc I have no clue but please call your mom as soon as you read this and tell her to call immediately for an appointment or to take her to a larger hospital immediately to get help. If you mom is at work yes she may need to leave to take her to a hospital but we are talking about saving your sisters life. Apparently you and your mom don't realize this could kill your sister is she doesn't get help soon enough. My apologies for sounding "crude" but this is not something that should have been left go for any length of time once you found the evidence.
I feel for you, I've been in your position, and it's a tricky one. My advice to you, is to TALK to her NOW.
Don't put it off, things will get worse. Don't get into an arguement with her, because it'll cause more stress for her, and she'll do it even more.
You have to find out WHY she is doing it first, what or who made her think she was 'FAT'...
Once you've got an answer to that, the rest will be easier.
Belive me, this is better coming from her sister, so, although I know its hard to start this kind of conversation, DO IT. You'll be ok...things can only get better!
Either you could have a word or take her to a GP. Make sure you comment on how great she looks so hopefully she wont go the whole way.

How to give a sensual body massage to my bf?
Plze give me a step by step easily explained answer. Never given him a body massage before.
Answer:
I'll give you a few easy thing to do. 1 you need an oil. If you can find it grape seed oil with a few drops of lavender essential oil added. If not extra light olive oil will do. 2 a space to do it. Pull your bed's mattress onto the floor. This will do. 3. set the mood. Quiet and dark. A few candles and low light. Have a towel and sheet handy in case he gets cold. OK now to the massage. Have him lay on his stomach and you straddle him and sit on his buttocks. Then oil your hands and begin on his back with long flowing strokes from the lower back to the shoulders. Spread your hands out to the sides of the body
and bring them back down to the lower back. Repeat for awhile then go to his head and do the same only in reverse and have your hands go over his buttocks. Repeat for a while.
Then oil your breasts and run them over his back and buttocks making sure to tease his crack too. Then oil your hands and start on the buttocks. Knead the cheeks like they are dough. Then using your fists rotate them all over both cheeks. Then using you thumbs in a circular motion go down both sides of his crack. Go down the legs with long flowing strokes making sure to get behind the knee. Sit at his feet take one in your hand. Use very little oil here. Using your thumbs go over the entire bottom of the foot. Making sure to stroke the arch. Then pull each toe and flex the toes back and forth. Flip him over and do full flowing strokes over his entire front and make sure to leave the special parts till the end. I hope this helps. To add a little spice straddle his face and work his chest and abs with the flowing strokes while you lower your crotch down and up teasing him.
Take off your shirt and rub your Boobies on his back
You really need to go to a bookstore and get a book on this. They have books that will show you step-by-step (I have a couple myself).
Waldenbooks usually has them in their discount bins.

How to get skinnier? get chosen for best answer!?
I work out but i don't really get skinnier
i just lose weight from the top of my
stomach but not from my lower part of my
stomach does anyone know how to lose
weight in that part of the area? if so witch exercises
do i need to do? and what type of diets? please help
if you do this i will promise you that you will
get chosen as the best answer
Answer:
The lower ab area is a really hard place to tone. One of the best exercises is to lay on flat on your back and lift up both legs straight off the floor so your feet around about 1 foot to 1.5 feet off the floor. Hold this move for 15-20 seconds and repeat 3 times.
Another move to tighten abs is the plank. Position yourself like you would as you were doing a push-up and you are pushed up off the floor so your arms are straight. Hold yourself in this position for 60 seconds and repeat 3 times. It may sound simple but it works. You can also try it on your side to help with your obliques.
Try the moves everyday, if your diet is right and you are doing a fair amount of cardio you will probably see definition and results in about 2 weeks.
Good Luck, I hope this helps.
Just exercise and diet the right way. The main thing is not overdoing it. Wait, I hope ur not getting skinny like Nicole Richie. If you are, please stop. Seek professional help if necessary.
well do sit ups that really works on your abs and if you are already doing them run everyday and dont eat unless your hungry, slim fasts work they get you full
Run 4 times a week in the morning, and start off at an 8 minute per mile pace, and run for 3 to 4 miles. As you get better over time increase the miles or lower the minutes, or both. As for diets, it not that hard to use common sense while eating if your just trying to eat healthy. Just remember, getting in shape takes time, so you'll have to be patient. Don't expect overnight results, you'll only end up dissapointing yourself. As for your lower abs, running should help a little but you want to try supine bycycles for that. Google it.
The worst thing for your abs (lower) is consuming alot of carbs no matter how much you exercise. And did you know alot of exercises that you do for your abs actually build up your lower ab muscles so it makes you look bigger. My advice to you is do general exercises like swimming or walking.
I would suggest drinking nothing but water, soymilk, and fresh fruit (no sodas or surgary drinks). Try replacing any snacks you have with fresh fruit and dessert with fruit as well. A fruit salad in the morning and after dinner is a really good treat. Try to make sure you eat healthy; its hard to lose weight without a healthy diet.
An ab workout I used that works really well is to lay on your stomach and with your hands, elbows, and toes hold yourself up for a few minutes. You can feel the burn almost instantly. You can also do it for the sides of your abs too.
You may also want to try an aerobic exercise (like running) which will burn much more calories and fat than just doing sit ups.

The lower ab area is a really hard place to tone. One of the best exercises is to lay on flat on your back and lift up both legs straight off the floor so your feet around about 1 foot to 1.5 feet off the floor. Hold this move for 15-20 seconds and repeat 3 times.
Another move to tighten abs is the plank. Position yourself like you would as you were doing a push-up and you are pushed up off the floor so your arms are straight. Hold yourself in this position for 60 seconds and repeat 3 times. It may sound simple but it works. You can also try it on your side to help with your obliques.
Try the moves everyday, if your diet is right and you are doing a fair amount of cardio you will probably see definition and results in about 2 weeks.
Good Luck, I hope this helps.
Just exercise and diet the right way. The main thing is not overdoing it. Wait, I hope ur not getting skinny like Nicole Richie. If you are, please stop. Seek professional help if necessary.
well do sit ups that really works on your abs and if you are already doing them run everyday and dont eat unless your hungry, slim fasts work they get you full
Run 4 times a week in the morning, and start off at an 8 minute per mile pace, and run for 3 to 4 miles. As you get better over time increase the miles or lower the minutes, or both. As for diets, it not that hard to use common sense while eating if your just trying to eat healthy. Just remember, getting in shape takes time, so you'll have to be patient. Don't expect overnight results, you'll only end up dissapointing yourself. As for your lower abs, running should help a little but you want to try supine bycycles for that. Google it.
The worst thing for your abs (lower) is consuming alot of carbs no matter how much you exercise. And did you know alot of exercises that you do for your abs actually build up your lower ab muscles so it makes you look bigger. My advice to you is do general exercises like swimming or walking.
I would suggest drinking nothing but water, soymilk, and fresh fruit (no sodas or surgary drinks). Try replacing any snacks you have with fresh fruit and dessert with fruit as well. A fruit salad in the morning and after dinner is a really good treat. Try to make sure you eat healthy; its hard to lose weight without a healthy diet.
An ab workout I used that works really well is to lay on your stomach and with your hands, elbows, and toes hold yourself up for a few minutes. You can feel the burn almost instantly. You can also do it for the sides of your abs too.
You may also want to try an aerobic exercise (like running) which will burn much more calories and fat than just doing sit ups.
How to get rid of the "stomach butterflies?"?
I am about to go for my road test in a few days and I am very nervous about it. How do you deal with anxiety? Help!
Answer:
Pamela J:
RELAX! That's the key. Don't worry about whether you fail or pass your road test. Remember everything that you've learned and review it.
It is very normal to feel anxious on the day of your road test, perhaps even days before the test. But, don't let your anxiety control you. It will only make things a lot worse for you. Don't be too anxious when you drive because that can be very difficult.
Good luck on your test!
Try positive self talk, deep breathing, and mostly just try to relax. Do something to take your mind off of it for a while. Dwelling on something thats going to happen will make it seem worse than it really is.
Usually I would try to think of something else or play some music that keeps my mind from thinking about the thing that caused the butterflies.
I have found that meditating and deep breathing (done right) really helps. Sit or lie in a position that is comfortable to you. Clear your mind of everything except your breathing. Relax and take a deep breath, make sure you are pushing your abdominal muscles out and tighten them when you exhale(each breath should take about15-20seconds). Do this for about 5-10 minutes and do it about an hour prior to your road test. During the road test if you get nervous try doing the breathing technique. It really does help. Good luck on your road test!!
Dear Pamela, just step back from the upcoming test, take some deep breaths and PRAY for peace, contentment, and HIS help and guidance, and HE will answer, settling your nerves allowing you to do your best. Remember, all things are under HIS control and ALL things work together for GOOD for those who TRUST the LORD. God bless you on your test!
take deep breathes, don't pass out, and RELAX!

How to get rid of piles after child birth? genuine help only!!?
I have piles, developed these during the birth of my daughter over 2 years ago and still here!
I have tried creams, ice-cubes, solutions to soften stools, everything.
i am pregnant again, and they are really sore again and bleed when I got to the tiolet. I am also anaemic, but have stooped taking iron supplements due to constipation!
Is it true you can get them lasered away in hospital when you are in having the baby (afterwards).. what do you have to do to get this treatment!
Help, any advice would be great!
Sophia
Answer:
I have never heard of this treatment so I don't know anything about that, my friend is due to have her piles removed but she has got to have them removed surgically, she has been suffering off and on since chilbirth and her children are all grown up, so a very long time. If you are fairly young and even though it has been two years of suffering they might prefer to wait to see if they will get better on their own and if they advise removing them surgically with an op you have to take it very easy for quite a while (lifting etc) so that would be difficult with young kids, try and have a chat with your Doctor he will give you all the pros and cons. My daughter asked about having her piles removed as she has suffered through two pregnancies and afterwards and the Doctor advised her to leave well alone for the time being (she's 26) but all Doctors are different aren't they!
I have suffered off and on since my first baby (26 years ago) and I recently had a very bad bout after I'd been seriously ill, I had really good pessaries from the Doctor which were much better than the over the counter treatments even he said the shop bought treatments were a waste of money. I know you know this, but keeping your regular bowel habits is really the best thing to keep the dreaded piles at bay as they do tend to crop up once you've had them once and constipation is the main culprit. Eat plenty of fruit, veg and roughage and as much water as you can drink. Obviously this time the piles have been aggravated by pregnancy hormones and the extra pressure on the blood supply and veins. Resting with your feet up when you can will help ease them, you are going to gain weight in pregnancy but it is better to try and not put more weight on than is advised as this can add to the pressure down below making the piles worse. If they are bleeding or sore have plenty of warm salt baths that will help them to heal and any cream with teatree in it is great to soothe.
You say you have used all the lotions and potions have you tried Fibogel? I always use this at my bad times, you can get it in sachets off the Doctor or from the Pharmacist, it is all completely natural roughage so should be safe with pregnancy. It helps the stools move along the bowel helping the constipation that causes the piles but it doesn't give you dairhhoea or cramps. It works fine bit you must mix it in the stated amount of water and try and drink one or more glasses af water straight after, and plenty of water through out the day, it isn't the most pleasant thing to drink but you put up with that if it works and it always works for me. Don't think it will happen over night it might take a few days but it will help to restore the natural bowel movements, so it's worth being patient. Once it gets better you can leave it off and your body will let you know if you need to take it again. When you go to the loo try not to strain, I know it's not easy but this makes them worse and you get that awful bleeding and terrible soreness.
Your best bet is to talk to your Doctor again they obviously can't do anything now as your pregnant and their likely to say that they'll improve after, but once you have piles, as you know they tend to keep coming back. Ask him about the treatment you've heard about, it sounds pretty good, if they do this to anyone with piles I'd have it done like a shot as they really affect my life sometimes and they make you feel so uncomfortable and miserable, especially when you have young kids to look after.
Well I hope you sort it out, you can give me some tips then for when mine play up, which is often, all the best and good luck with the baby!
You must go and see your doctor before it gets worse. The doc may give you a a cream to apply - this will depend on how bad your piles are.
Otherwise he/she may refer you to your local hospital for treatment, such as injections and bandaging of the piles.
When your doctor refers you to the hospital they will discuss the treatments available and tell you which one is best for you.
Hope this helps! but please see a doctor!
If you have tried creams and the rest then your only option is the doctor! They will advise you on all your options! X
Lots of fruit and fibre in diet. drink more than 2 litres of water a day. Lactulose.
Not it is not true that you can get them lasered afterwards.
If these measures fail go and see your GP. If they are really troubling you, he can refer you for a proctoscopy and banding, which is a procedure done awake.
once their there they dont go away.
Piles : This are caused by continuous constipation. Some times piles not only give severe pain but also start bleeding. For treatment, first remove constipation as mentioned below. Also give treatment on Acupressure point No. 10 on both the palms or soles. Also massage coconut oil or castor oil on piles. Do 'Ganesh Kriya'.
Constipation : It is not necessary to take laxative in this pregnancy stage. Acupressure treatment plus drinking of lukewarm water and giving the stomach some rest at least of one meal during a week will set the things right. Also include more water/buttermilkand leafy vegetables in the diet.
First check the Solar Plexus and if not in order correct it. Put the thumb on the middle of chin and rub it or give pressure around it for 2 to 6 minutes. This will solve the problems of constipation.
If it is felt that passing of stools is not satisfactory, wet the middle long finger with coconut oil/edible oil or butter and put it as far possible in the anus and massage around it. Afterwards, move the belly, inwards and out. Further stools may start coming out. Clean the part with water. This treatment helps to clean the bowels, prevent constipation and also the piles. THIS IS CALLED "GANESH KRIYA" IN YOGA.
I think this advice will help you lot and be happy.

How to get rid of my bad habbit of saying eww?
I have a habit to say eww before i see. Like once my friend showed my a picture of herself and i said eww. The pictures isn't disgusting, it really pretty. But its a habit to say eww. I don't think before i say. i just say it out. Please help me
Answer:
Think about what you're saying before saying it.
wow r u ever rude
Yes - that is a very bad habit.
What you want to do - this will work if you're diligent - what you do is everytime you say eww you pinch yourself really hard on the arm - til it hurts. Do this for a few months and see what happens. You'll either have a really sore arm or you'll have stopped saying eww.
FP
ew.
say **** instead
eeewww, that is a bad habit
Have friends and family say something to you EVERY time to help you quit
This help me stop saying "like" %26 "all righty then"
Good Luck
try using four letter words, or combinations of racial slurs accompanied by the word **** blocking **** brick gross _______racial slur_____. Continue as needed until your point is made.
Use your right hand and smack yourself everytime you say it and soon you will quit.or develop a liking to it.
You can also ask your friends to smack you. It gets them involved and they really seem to enjoy helping...You know they do...

Meditation works. Just think of urself slowly pushing the head ache out of ur body. It is a little wierd and takes time but it helps. Also, a dark room, cool compress on the head or neck, also try caffiene-sometimes this helps. MSG is known to trigger headaches is some people, so try staying away from it to see if that helps. If the headache doesn't resolve or symptoms worsen (vomiting, fever) then please see a dr.

How to get more vitamin b12 in your system?
my great grandmother is 91 and her recent check-up test results said that she is low on b12. i was wondering if there are any specific foods, etc. that can help us to get her b12 count up. is there any specific sites that could help? also are there any specific side effects of being low? if so, do any sites also list these?
Answer:
The Office of Dietary Supplements has a great site that offers many suggestions:
http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/vitamin...
Being vegan, I understand the importance of vitamin b12. I turn to "nutritional yeast" (which can be found at your local health food store) and sprinkle it on many different foods. You can find great recipes that incorporate nutritional yeast on www.vegweb.com
And there are always just b12 supplements that you can find in your local grocery store in the vitamins aisle.
Good luck!
Sub-lingual vitamin B12 supplements. easy and convenient, just put them under your tongue and let them dissolve.
The major side effect is loss of energy.

How to get more confidence?
how can i increase my confidence levels, at the minute they are rock bottem with various things happening, im only 18 and i have no confidence and i find it hard to talk to people, even people i know, its very upsetting. i know the easiest thing would be to go to the docs but im too nervous to go.
Answer:
take it steady and dont be too hard on yourself...take safe steps and not feel pessured by anyone else and dont put too much pressure on yourself..so you set yourself up to destroy any confidence you have left.
find something that you love doing...and practice not worrying about what others think of what you do...you do it for you not anyone else.
if you can get support from non judgemental and non critical people that will help you alot
You're already building it up by asking the question. Just keep talking to people, and slowly, but surely, it will go up.
well there could always be the possiblity of social anxiety. But if you go to your doctors and its not that, then just start becoming mentaly stronger. Thats what confidence is about. To be confident you cant be afraid to be your self. A confident person donesnt care about what others think of them. They have no embarassing moments.
Say what you mean and mean what you say, becuase those who mind dont matter, and those who matter dont mind.
its easy to have a low confidence, ok, firstly just talk to random people over the net, they dont know where you live so theres nothing to be scared of, get a job in a store or just go out more
Why not join a social club with varied activities? Do you have a local community centre?
if you know what to do why aren't you doing it?go to the doctor and get help

How to get back to normal after laxative use?
i've recently been constipated and been using laxatives on and off (not for weight loss, just to help with the constipation) and now my body is so used to them it won't do its business properly. how do i get my digestive system and colon back to normal? i know eating alot of fiber helps, but it really hasn't helped me much.
Answer:
I had this problem before and fiber made it worse. Are you lactose intolerant? Drink lots of water and eat lots of dark green veggies. Prunes will help as well or prune juice.
Castor oil.
try a stool softner just once to wean off them . drink alot of water walk walk a mile too three . eat fruit . ceral.
DRINK LOTS OF WATER and eat plenty of vegatables

How to get a peace sleep eventhough the surrounding is making a terrible annoying sound?
I hard to get sleep with so much noises disturb my sleep concentration. I know that there are people who wants to get my attention and wishes me the trouble with my sleep. Like hitting on my room ceiling from their upper room with a big bang sound.. How can I solve this problem? Can you sleep with this kind of environment? If you do... How do you do it?
Answer:
Ask them to stop...or buy some ear plugs. I used to use them when I worked a night shift. It help to block out the noise of people mowing their lawns etc.
Call the cops
damn...must be hard...go and tell them to put a sock in it...or report them to the noise controllere in your area
couple glasses of red wine before you go to bed at a non active pace...feel a lil buz...you ll sleep like a lil baby
foam ear plugs. They sell them at most stores cheaply. They work great.
move to Mexico
i live in this noisy apartment an i got earplugs at cvs or a local drugstore the work really well.
Well if you can, tell the people to stop making the noise. You could also try earplugs or hearing protection, which you could probably find at a construction store like the Home Depot.
Report some people first. Buy some eary plugs, then turn on a fan really loud.
I move abroad, and sleep in a mud hut for 51 weeks of the year.
zanax and trazodone my doctor gives it to me
I would suggest some type of noisemaker (rain or forest). With any luck, while sleeping you will subconsciously focus on the rain instead of the pounding.
If that doesn't work, you might have to go about it the old fashioned way: ear plugs.
There are forms of meditation you can apply. Concentrating on your inner thoughts, and not letting the sounds control your restful mind. Let go of any thoughts of frustration, and try to mentally accept the noises as natural. The noises don't keep you awake, it's your reaction to those noises that occupies your mind. Free your mind, and you will find sleep.
.

If you can move and you know this is deliberate attempts to keep you awake, then move. If you are tired you will fall asleep no matter what is happening. I have no problem sleeping with lots of machinery running around me but if I am not sleepy, it doesn't matter how quiet it is, I stay awake.
where do u live it cant be that back cuz u didnt take a stand yet(or the second thought dont something might happen) scratch that
Try sleeping pills not every doctor will subscribe them but they will if you can prove you have a problem in sleeping..
my mother had the same problem you need to contact your local council and ask to speak to environment services.They will send you a noise diary thay you have to fill out for a few weeks and then they will fit a sound measuring device in your home for a few days.If they think it is bad then they will take them to court and fine them,if they (the noise makers) rent the property then they will have them evicted.Thats hat happened in my mums case.Hey,dont EVER have a child,you never ever get sleep then!
Ear plugs......they work GREAT!!
Good luck!!
Ear plugs or headphones with something piped in you can sleep to and that will block out other environmental sounds. I believe Bose has such headphones.
Answer:
Ask them to stop...or buy some ear plugs. I used to use them when I worked a night shift. It help to block out the noise of people mowing their lawns etc.
Call the cops
damn...must be hard...go and tell them to put a sock in it...or report them to the noise controllere in your area
couple glasses of red wine before you go to bed at a non active pace...feel a lil buz...you ll sleep like a lil baby
foam ear plugs. They sell them at most stores cheaply. They work great.
move to Mexico
i live in this noisy apartment an i got earplugs at cvs or a local drugstore the work really well.
Well if you can, tell the people to stop making the noise. You could also try earplugs or hearing protection, which you could probably find at a construction store like the Home Depot.
Report some people first. Buy some eary plugs, then turn on a fan really loud.
I move abroad, and sleep in a mud hut for 51 weeks of the year.
zanax and trazodone my doctor gives it to me
I would suggest some type of noisemaker (rain or forest). With any luck, while sleeping you will subconsciously focus on the rain instead of the pounding.
If that doesn't work, you might have to go about it the old fashioned way: ear plugs.
There are forms of meditation you can apply. Concentrating on your inner thoughts, and not letting the sounds control your restful mind. Let go of any thoughts of frustration, and try to mentally accept the noises as natural. The noises don't keep you awake, it's your reaction to those noises that occupies your mind. Free your mind, and you will find sleep.

How to find a NON DRUG TESTING job in texas.?
I'm new to Texas and I'm having a hard time finding a job, now before you all jump down my throat for smoking pot, don't judge someone by something that they do or don't do. My question is, are there any temp agencies or companies that just won't piss test me or at least give me some notice before they do? I smoke to deal with life and my husbands injuries from being overseas, I don't "abuse" it, if I could use medical pot in Texas I'd be over qualified for it for sure. I just was searching online for Non Drug Testing Companies and only found a list from 2002, which isn't recent enough. It's bad enough I'm not Bi-Lingual and living in Texas. I've found a few sites that don't list Bi-Lingual jobs which is a bonus, but can't seem to find a site that lists jobs that won't require a drug test to get hired.
Trust me I know I should quit till I find a job, but I've been looking for almost a year now and can't find a freaking thing.
ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT, Thanks again :-)
Answer:
why don't you just quit doing drugs?
gas stations, restaurants, retail, delivering newspapers, etc don't drug test.
Start your own business.
A lot of companies do now. try a waitressing job in a strip club (talk about good money), temp agency the ones that pay by the day.
until you can get off the dope, McDonald's is hiring

i have the same problem, i cant fall asleep till 3 in the morning and i wake up around 12. you may be suffering from insomnia, which is a sleeping disorder. if its not that, it can also be that your sleeping schedule is confusiing your brain.
for example, you shouldn't take naps after 3 in the afternoon cause then your brain will get confused and think that was your nights sleep. also, during the day, you shouldn't have naps for more than an hour.
If I can't sleep do to stress, I do a little exercise in my head where I build something fun in my mind. For you, lets say you like fashion, why not design a dress in your mind, starting with selecting the fabric, then cutting the pattern then laying it out and trimming the fabric, then decide on accent pieces for the front and back, then fine tuning the pannnellll.zzzzzzzzzzz (get the idea?)
try to develop a routine before bed and go to bed at the same time each night
don't drink any caffiene before bed
try not to watch tv or do homework in your bed...leave it just for sleeping
read a book till you get sleepy..unless you're the type that has to finish a book once you start
make sure the room is a comfortable temp
sleeping tablets
take some sleeping pills or go run round the block a few times.
wake up earlier, the earlier you wake up, the more tired you will be at nightitme. also, stick to your usual school routine, for example, if during school days you woke up at 6 am, do that everyday as well.
You could take herbal sleeping pills.
Do ur exercise as late in the afternoon/evening as possible.
Have an early dinner, keeping it a bit on lighter side.
Have a bath before going 2 bed.
If u r habitual of getting a nap in the afternoon, stop it.
Read a book in the bed.
When u close ur eyes, make sure each part of ur body is completely relaxed including ur mind.
a couple of pints of lager works well
Sleeping tablets is not a good idea to get into as very addictive.
Have a soothing cup of herbal camomile tea before bed and spray some lavender spray on your pillow (can get from The Body shop). Also, a warm bath with lavender bath foam in (known for aiding sleep) also works well for me too.
try reading to tire ur eyes out it works 4 me i swear
read, make sure your TV is off, listen to a relaxing nature sounds CD, do not take a nap after school unless it's like a 30 min. power nap...I hope this helps I know it's frustrating

How to eliminate pubic hair without pain?
Answer:
impossible!
burn it off
Shave.
Why?
shave it. you will get bumps and it will hurt for a while until the skin down there gets used to it... just takes a bit. make sure you moisturize too.
it's supposed to be there
the easiest most efficient way is shaving but that still has some kind of pain to it (expecially raver burn) otherwise there are creams that remove hair but i personally don't think they work really good
Use a Japanese made Intimate Area Shaver. It shaves extremely close and leaves skin super smooth.
Best of all it does not nick, cut or bite and won't result in ingrown hair or shaving rash.

See a therapist for Cognitive Behavior Therapy- you can learn breathing techniques to cope with anxiety. I also heard that biofeedback and accupunture are good ways, but have not tried either of them.
Get a dog. Seriously. A lot of anxiety can be alleviated just by spending less time thinking and more time concentrating on the well being of a pet. Walking, playing, training, bathing...It's all good.
How to cure painful mouth ulcers that wont go away!?
I have been sick with flu for the past week or so and for about 5 days i have had bad mouth ulcers in my lower lip. is there anything that can cause it and what can be done?
thanks!
Answer:
use salt as some of the people have already said.. get a dab of salt on your finger and then gently rub the ulcer, it will sting at first but soon after it will heal really quickly as the mineral components in salt kills off bacteria almost instantly.. or you can also use lemon juice for the same effect.
some salt and then u just have to wait for it to go away on its own :(
put SALT on the ulcer! it's gonna hurt like hell but it's going to be all good tomorrow. :)
Use Ora-Sed it works for me.
Buy it at a chemist shop.
oral hygiene is important . but u take borax powder.
yes salt warm water is good as a rinse..several times a day..however..stress and poor diet can be the culprits..i suggest vitamin B C E heaps of green veg and leafy salads and reducing your stress levels
some people would say put some oinment on it to make it go away artificially, i tried but it doesn't work for me. the best way is to sleep earlier every night (like 9 or 10 pm) and brush your teeth before goin to bed, oh and drink a LOT of water, it helps.
good luck
there is a fantastic product called kenalong apply it at night for a few days and your mouth ulser will go.
I would try a high dose of B vitamins if this doesn't work you may need a medication so please see your doctor.
thanks!

How to clean and dry the inside of a short arm cast after sweating?
Answer:
please use some kind of powder
or even the corn starch that is in your kitchen
any time it is itchy dump powder down
do not use the perfumed kind as they can cause irritation of the skin
DO NOT USE ANY KIND OF STICK
CLOTHS HANGER
OR WOODEN SPOON
JUST USE POWDER
IF YOU POKE SOME THING DOWN TO SCRATCH AND IF YOU CUT YOURSELF YOU WILL GET AN INFECTION
THESE INFECTIONS CAN BE VERY BAD
AND THEY WILL LEAVE SCARS
YOU MAY NOT KNOW THAT YOU CUT YOURSELF
AND IT CAN EVEN LEAD TO BLOOD POISONING
I HAVE SEEN THIS HAPPEN
We used baby powder or corn starch for my son. Not to much. Just enough to freshen it up, dry and prevent the itching!
Use a wooden skewer with cotton twisted onto the end of it. Put rubbing alcohol on the cotton...slide it into the cast and continue with this until your cast/arm is clean. Rubbing alcohol dries quickly. Just don't use too much of the alcohol. Also, it doesn't have a scent.
How to can I get nightmares?
Excluding the scary movies(those don't really work because I insinictively hid from the scary parts or they just aren't scary), eating before bed( it wakes me up), or thinking about scary things, because then I can't get to sleep and I also got over all the fears I know that are reality. You can't fool my subconscious.
Answer:
While I don't know Why you could possibly WANT nightmares, since you said movies don't work because you hide from the scary parts (or they weren't scary), try this. Ask around to see what's the scariest movie your friends and family has ever seen. Then, watch it all the way through, excluding no parts, alone at night in your house right before you go to bed.
Good luck with .getting nightmares..?
anybody can get nightmares when they least excpect them.

How to build musclesif you are skinny and already 25?
i weigh 143 pounds and my height is 6"0, i started wokring out last year under the supervision of a professional trainer how provided me with exercise program, for 3 months i never changed, my eating habits were the same and i didnt get bigger, i got bored and stopped. 3 months ago i got protein shake and started drinking 2 servings each day for one month, i wastn working out in that time and i also didnt gain anything, my muscles are still weak. Now i got back to wokring out and got the protein shake, am not sure how many servings to have each day? and when to take them, pre or post exercise? am i doing now the right thing? will my muscles grow bigger and become stronger? i dnt wanna be huge, but at least to look like a man who is strong and have storng well shaped body and muscles, thanks all
Answer:
You have the right idea with the protein shakes, but you need to understand the fundemental dietary concerns. You need to:
1. Eat enough calories to gain weight
2. Eat at least 1g of protein per lbs of body weight each day
You don't necessarily have to have TWO protein shakes per day; find some food sources of protein (tuna, non-fried chicken, eggs). Try finding a protein bar--they can be great snack when otherwise you would have to settle for something less benificial to your goal.
Here is how to calculate how many calories you need to eat each day in an effort to gain weight (= muscle):
1. multiply your body weight by 11
2. multiply the result of this by either 30, 40, or 50% (.3, .4, .5) depending on how fast your metabolism is (50% for fast)
3. Add together the results from step 1 and 2--this is how many calories you should be eating to maintain your current body weight
4. Since you want to gain weight, add an additional 500 calories to this number, and this is how many calories you should be consuming (at the least) per day.
It sounds as though for 3 months you exercised but didn't eat correctly (or enough), and then for a month you improved your eating but didn't exercise. All you need to do is put both together at the same time.
I would suggest having your protein shake within 30 minutes after your workout. This will provide your body with nutrients to fuel the building up of your muscles after you have stimulated them to grow in the gym by overloading them. If you are going to have a meal after, do it 30 minutes or so after you have the protein shake.

How to boost energy levels......?
I suffer with depression and i am tired alot of the time, but i want to have more energy.
I am trying to get myself into a 'normal' routine as well walking for a bit everyday etc.
But a few tips that could help me would be nice.
Thanks.
Answer:
Walking is good. Any light exercise will lift you.
The best thing is to have a good diet with regular mealtimes.
Try to stay off sugary foods, alcohol and caffiene as much as possible. Pick up a 5 a day leaflet from your doctor or supermarket %26 try to eat slow release foods such as oats, brown bread, rice etc.
When you feel down your likely to binge a little, don't worry about that too much. If you try to eat well the rest of the time you will be tired and depressed much less often.
If you are off your food then, all in one multivitimins will tide you over a bit. Your doctor can prescribe these if you can't buy them for some reason.
Changing your diet will be a slow process, so be patient and keep trying little by little you will get there.
Take care and best of luck
p.s. your body is enlivened by sunshine so get outide whenever you can.
This is a difficult one, i know how you feel. You know what walking is good for you, i find that when i really am tired its my body telling me to sleep so i sleep, to fight it, i go have a hot shower then go out shopping or do housework.. i hope you feel better soon, i hate this illness, it just overtakes your life. xx
Go to holland and barrett and they sell energy extra its æ‹¢1.99 for 30 tablets or go and ask them what you can take to give you more energy I am sure there are lots of things. If you don't want to take anything then all I can suggest is lots of exercise the more you do the better you will feel but it takes a while to kick in. Also try energy drinks lucozade or other sports drinks.
exercise - it always makes me feel more revitalised even though i often dont feel i want to/or can do it im always glad i did.
getting your diet right will help with all of these. And to find out the right diet for you I'd advise you finding out about your metabolic type to see which foods suit you. protein types get lethargic from eating carbs, and carb types get lethargic from eating protein is a really simple way of looking at metabolic typing.
Checkout this book from amazon that will tell you what metabolic type you are and suggest which foods are good for you to eat and which you should avoid eating.

How talll do you have to be to be considered tall?
Answer:
This will vary, but I say around 6 ft for men.
Women, 5 feet seven inches and up.
5'9 for women
6'0 for men
6 foot 3 inches or higher.
i think 5'10'' for women and 6'0'' for men.
How tall will I be?
If I am 14. My shoe size is 7. My mom is 4'11 but she could have been taller but she had a kidney transplant at age 14 and missed out on her growth spurts. Her sisters are about 5'2-5'4. My dad is also 5'3. How tall can I expect to be. I also weigh about 100 pounds.
Answer:
You'll probably be about 5'3. My dad is 6 feet tall and my mom is 5'4, I'm 5'7. If your moms sisters are both around 5'3 thats probably how tall she would have been.
as tall as you want to be
you could be any where from 5-6 foot its not a sure thing
Sometimes you get your height from uncles or grandparents if you can have your wrist x-rayed and read it can tell you close how tall you will get... i am 6'1 and my 16 year old son is 6'5" nobody even close to him so stranger things have happened
Unless you have done it already you could try a Yahoo search for "grow taller" but please don't believe all the posted information as miraculous claims are likely to be fictitious fabrications.

How tall do you think shaq was when he was 14?
ive always wondered
Answer:
He was 6' 8" when he was about 13 yrs. old and Dale Brown (LSU coach) discovered him on a military base in Germany (his father was an officer). Brown mistook him for a soldier. Obviously, he kept in touch with this prospect through highschool and this led to him choosing LSU for his college career.
His freshman year there were 3 future NBA 1st round draft choices on the team (Shaq, Stanley Roberts and Chris Jackson [later Mahmoud Abdul Rauf] - Shaq was the 1st overall pick in 1992 by Orlando, and Jackson was the 3rd overall pick in 1990 by Denver), but the team still floundered in the NCAAs.
Answer:
He was 6' 8" when he was about 13 yrs. old and Dale Brown (LSU coach) discovered him on a military base in Germany (his father was an officer). Brown mistook him for a soldier. Obviously, he kept in touch with this prospect through highschool and this led to him choosing LSU for his college career.

How strong of a smell does marijuana give off when smoked ?
Answer:
this all depends on how good it is... however... usually it can be complete crap and still stink a place up. Trust me, your parents will smell it, go to a cool friends house ;)
Well, I don't smoke it, but I know lots of people that do. It can be quite strong and if you are near someone smoking it, you can get high off the fumes!! It has happened to me!!
A very strong disgusting, nasty smell that no moral law abiding citizen wants to smell or have drift into the smells in our cars especially when we have children in the car!!!
Depends on the potentcy, If smoked by blunt it seems to linger around more. If by pipe or bong the smoke doesn't really stay on you.
How sick would you be if you had a 104 degree temperature?
I have a co-worker who is 27 and she called off work on a friday because she had a "temperature" of 104. Monday she comes to work looking perfect, nothing wrong, not even talking about it. I think she FOR SURE faked it. I thought if an adult had a 104 temperature you should be in the emergency room, and it could cause brain damage? What do you guys think?
Answer:
It's possible that that she may have had a high fever like that and is feeling much better today.
But I would be skeptical as well if I were you. Anyone who was that sick would be talking about it. You feel miserable with a fever like that. It's caused by a virus.
How convenient that it was a Friday.
Next time she calls out, require her to get a doctor's note from her physician.
She was probably faking or you were misinformed.
Yeah, that's pretty high for an adult. My mom had a temperature of 103 a couple months ago and she ended up having walking pneumonia. So she could be faking it, but who knows. She should go to the doctor though, because that's real high.
I had a 104 degree temperature and even though I was coherent, I could not stand or walk without help. I couldn't even focus my eyes at times. I can't believe she shouldn't have looked like she was pulled through a knot-hole on Monday, if she had suffered from that high a temperature. Maybe a thermometer and light-bulb were involved in getting that temperature reading. I never went to the emergency room, just drank plenty of water and was washed down often with tepid water. It took one whole day for the fever to break.
If you have a 104 temp, you're sick as a dog. I had bronchial pneumonia a few years back, and was admitted directly to the hospital by my doctor because my temp was so high. It's possible to get better over a weekend, but not likely. Sounds like she faked it.
She may be faking it who knows. You have to give her the benefit of the doubt and move on. The lie is on her if it comes out, just sit back and see what happens.
maybe she got better over the weekend? she might have had touch of the flu and felt better to come into work. i wouldn't worry about it unless you're her supervisor?
man by the time a person has that kind of temperture they shoulda been dead or nearly thats immposibble thjat she could have had 104 temp.
a temp of 104 doesn't cause brain damage, but it doesn't go away without treatment either, if she saw a doctor the day she called in and got started on antibiotics, she could be well enough now to work, it usually takes 24 to 48 hours for antibiotics to effectively reduce a high fever. It takes temps of 106 or greater to effect changes in the brain.
So, stop being so assumptive and suspicious, she could have been legitimately ill and sought treatment.
Stop reading and typing goto the doctor now.
I've had a temp of 104.2 before and finally went to the doctor after about 2 days (couldn't drive myself, so had to wait until someone could). Within 24 hours, the fever was gone, but that was due to some really good antibiotics. So, if she's on antibiotics, it is very likely she could have had a 104 fever on Friday and be fever free on Monday. I recently had a fever of 103.8 and only missed work for 1 day. So, yes, it is likely. High fevers do not effect everyone the same. Some people are bedridden with 101 and some are still up and around at 103+. I can usually function normally up to 103.5. Above that, I crash.
no it is not that serious..everyone suffers when fever is high.ya it can go up in a day..but tabs for sweating make it in control.n yes u cant work at that high..n yes always believe ur co-workers or they wont trust u in such case
104 is very high, but 3 days seems to be enough time to recover especially if she was healthy in the first place and was on antibiotics. Also 104 temp doesn't cause brain damage.
Possible, but not necessary. Adults don't get brain damage unlike children, who may develop convulsions with such temperature.
Some viral fevers do go off rapidly without much damage. But, yes, she might have stretched the truth a little more.
at a temp of 104 thats pretty bad. more than likely shes either a. faking or b. she couldve had such a bad fever because of beeing so sick in which case it might have broke and that would leave her feeling pretty decent within a day or two. i guess go by her integrity
I had almost a 105 fever. I was still able to get up a little bit though. It just made me a little delirious and I had the chills and I was very tired. It only last about two days though. So she might not have been faking it. My mom had a 103.6 fever one time, and she was still up and doing things. I guess it just depends on what type of person she is. Like is she known to get sick a lot, or only a little? If she gets sick a lot, that means recovery will be quicker because her body is used to sickness, and then recovering. If she hardly gets sick then her body will be like "WHOA, WHY DO I FEEL THIS WAY?" and it will take a longer time to recover because her body isn't used to sickness.
Anyways, she might be telling the truth. No, you dont have to go to the ER if you get a 104 fever. It could cause brain damage, but not very likely.

How should you teach your best friend how to go out on a date? its hard.?
Answer:
Most likely they'll learn to anyway, I'd say; it'd kind of embarrass them if you try to teach them!
Well there should be no teaching involved - they should be themselves
But no being creepy, touching in a creepy way, no talking about exes or discussing any kind of "on line" friends.
Oh and use deodorant, pluck the monobrow, dress normally - then just be normal. Its just a date, not a potential girl or boyfriend - just enjoy it and if something happens its a bonus

How should you pee in the ocean should you just walk out stand there and go or should you pull down your pants and go??
Answer:
how old r you p@ss in your clothes you will be wet from the water
If you pull down your pants, the little fish might like to nibble. I guess that I would swim far far away and go for it.
Any way you want to. With so many animals peeing in the ocean, your little bit of pee won't make much of a difference.
I DONT THINK I'D WIGGLE MY TALLEYWHACKER TO MUCH IN THE OCEAN SUPERMAN !!
Make sure you stand against the wind and take your pants all the way down. that's the stand ard procedure
JUST GO WHATS THE USE OF PULLING DOWN!!
you should stand like a man and let it rip up or down depends on how you feel at that point in time just do it
well, if u stand still for a while, anyone can tell that u r taking a pee, please don't pee in swimmimg pool,
If YOU JUST HAVE TO GO AND CAN'T GET TO THE RESTROOM THEN YOU DON'T PULL DOWN YOUR PANTS. NO RESPECT FOR OTHERS THERE!!1! BUT IF YOU CAN GET TO THE RESTROOM, THEN PLEASE DO SO. HAVE SOME DIGNITY SWEETIE;%26gt;

How severe does a panic attack get?
if it possible to die from a severe panic attack,how severe are we talking?
Answer:
Hi! I鈥檓 so sorry to hear you鈥檙e feeling bad. No, it's not possible to die from a panic attack - it can just feel that way! Try the following 3 steps (they eliminated my panic attacks of 15 years):
1.Breathe properly - if you control your breathing, you control panic. As soon as you notice the signs of anxiety, check your breathing: breathe in slowly through your nose pushing your tummy out (to the count of 5 or so). Breathe out slowly and for a bit longer (to the count of 7 or so) through your mouth. Do not breathe rapidly or shallowly (in the chest area). This will soon restore the balance of oxygen and you will feel a lot better.
2. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy! CBT is proven to be the most effective thing for panic attacks and social anxiety. It takes a bit of work, but it is super effective. You can speak to your doctor about taking a course or you can take a course for free online at: http://www.livinglifetothefull.com/... It has been funded by NHS Scotland and has had great results thus far.
3. Try relaxation exercise tapes (progressive muscular relaxation). They really help if you practise often enough. This site has instructions on how to do it without the tapes (and other useful info): http://www.cci.health.wa.gov.au/resource...
With each of these steps, practise makes perfect. I hope this helps and you feel better soon. Don鈥檛 give up hope! Best of luck!
I'm guessing the worst thing that could happen is you'd pass out.
if you were driving a car when a panic attack hits, then it may be possible that it can kill you. if you can, imagine every single emotion in the human body converging on your brain at the exact same time. all together at once. that is what a panic attack feels like and if your driving a car when it happens, you may swerve into oncoming traffic, go in the ditch, drive offa the bridge, etc.
they'll make you feel like you are dying but I have never heard from a death cause from one. it is a horrible disorder that needs serious medical attention.
I've had panic attacks while driving that have caused me to have to pull to the side of the road, where I get more nervous as the cars pass me, and start to lose my breathing, I have been hospitalized from lack of oxygen twice just from panic attacks.

How seriously does the radiation coming from TVs,PC screens,mobile phones affect our healths?
Answer:
It's not very severe, but um..
It is scientifically proven that using a cellphone, or being near one that's turned on, can cause short term memory loss. ;;cos of the radiation.
And um, using the computer can worsen your eyesight.
For example, I have 2 friends, one uses the computer often and one doesn't. The one that uses the computer a lot wears glasses, the other doesn't.
Does that.. make sense?! xP
damage our eyesights
i hope its not too seious, cos we are all stuffed
it will effect your health but only over a long period of time
If you glow in the dark, beware. It is already too late.
not that serious come on now for centuries we as well as our grandparents watched TV and i know my elders lived healthy for a long time so why now? people need to focus more on more important things like whats going on with our troops!
How serious is gange green?
Answer:
It's deadly serious. Once gangrene sets in, there's usually nothing they can do to restore the area to health, and unless it's surgically removed, the person will die.
It can kill. It can maim. It is really bad to have this condition.
not that serious you don't even have to go to the doctors. just get some tweezers and jet all of the gunk out.
Gang Green is a very serious condition. I knew someone who had developed it on their foot and end up having to have their whole leg amputated in order to prevent the gang green from spreading. That's really all i now, but it's enough to let me know that it is to be considered very serious.
Gangrene is when the tissue has died.
The affected part becomes, black, may have a very nasty odor like three day old road kill or not have any odor,be grey and flaky looking.
It can kill you.
IT CAN KILL YOU AND IF YOU LISTEN TO nathan k THEN YOU ARE A MORON AND WILL DIE GO TO THE DOCTOR ASAP.
well, it is not so serious at the very beginning, but if you go a short while without getting it checked it can spread, and the nerves of this area will become damaged. If it spreads to an entire extremity, this said extremity may need to be amputated.
and yes, it spreads rather quickly.
Gangrene is necrosis and subsequent decay of body tissues caused by infection or thrombosis or lack of blood flow. It is usually the result of critically insufficient blood supply sometimes caused by injury and subsequent contamination with bacteria. This condition is most common in the extremities. The best of all possible treatments is revascularization (restoration of blood flow) of the affected organ, which can reverse some of the effects of necrosis and allow healing. Depending on the extent of tissue loss and location, treatment other than revascularization runs the gamut from allowing digits to auto-amputate (fall off), debridement and local care, to amputation, the removal of infected necrotic tissues.
How safe is chiropractic practices ?
what are the risk invovled with chiropractic practice ?
i was promised a 5 hour session that hopefully will make me feel much better! what do you think ?
Answer:
It's no where near as risky as people make it out to be. Chiropractors are not GP's. You would not go to one if you had a wart, or a severe cold. They are spinal health specialists, and so any comparison to a doctor is silly.
As with any health care profession there is going to be the good story's and the bad story's. Generally people post more of the bad stories on sites like these to prey on people who have not experienced something like chiropractic.
You should go in with an open mind and listen carefully to what the Chiropractor has to say. If you don't understand something then ask questions. Chiropractors are in general very good at what they do.
Chiropractic is one of the well known complementary medical practice that have effect on musculoskeletal system.
If you is treat by a licensed chiropractic it is safe.
You have an extremelly slight chance of getting hurt...but again, I could win the lottery tomorrow, no matter the odds.
I went to a chiropractor for about 6 months, three times a week for the first two months then twice a week at $40/session which lasted about 20 minutes...you do the math. (plus insurance only starts to pay if you go like the whole year)
I felt better on my problem (a neck problem) but then I developed another problem (hip).
I stopped going when I got tired of being told it was my fault I did not want to heal.
I read about those neck problems and incidents so I never allowed my chiropractor to do things too drastic (I was too chicken...again...my fault) no matter how he said I would feel so good after.
It's pretty scary. Make sure you have someone reliable...and again...

How safe are drug trials?
Im signed up with testwiththebest and now have the chance to join one of their testing programmes, the money is brilliant but i do remember a while back with those men when it all went horribly wrong
was that just a one off or is it a regular thing that happens?
Answer:
They have to be reasonably safe and already teasted on animals i think. You'll be right go for it. You could potentially save lives.
That's the beauty of it. Or the uglyness. It's a test; no one will know what is going to happen and that's also why you're getting paid so much money.
Drug testing is just that...testing, they aren't sure how it affects humans yet, that's why they pay so well, anything can happen to you...from nothing...to death. I wouldn't do it..try donating sperm..or eggs, whatever gender you are.
Read the fine print. They will own you. If someting goes wrong, oh well.
Oh my goodness no. But it is a 50/50 gamble; you could be one of the lucky ones and be given the placebo.
Human testing is not safe, but necessary.
You are risking serious health problems for the rest of your life if anything goes wrong and things do go wrong.
It is up to you to decide if the money is worth the risk.
READ all the paperwork as some companies have clauses that relieve them of all responsibility if anything goes wrong.
And very few insurances cover human trials.
Normally quite safe as they test on animals first but if u r on meds already they may interact and cause all kinds of irreversible problems...
They are as sure as they can be that the drugs are safe to use on humans. But things can go wrong but 100s of new drugs are launched every year if it was so risky it wouldn't happen
I think you answered your own question here. Yes, we all heard about the previous set of trials where people reacted very adly, but you do realise that these trial occur daily in many different places, but still, you've only heard of one lot going wrong.
Obviuosly, there are risks, but as you say yourself, how can we be sure that any drugs that we take in the future are safe for us unless they have been tested.
I know I'll get a slanting for this comment, but, I would prefer my drugs to be tested on people rather than animals. A asprin will kill a goat, but we can take 8 a day? Go figure!!
You will be told the risks before each trial %26 there's nothing stopping you from saying "no, this one is not for me".
My friend did it for years. I would if I wasn't a nurse (they don't appreciate you turning up for work with certain illnesses)..lol
If you do these trials - we will all owe you a big thank you :)
Good luck in your choice.
It can be a good thing to see if the drugs work but as you said there's a risk involved...just a reminder... :-
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/londo...
There is a risk. The case you refer to would seem to indicate that sufficient precautions are not always taken.
In the case you refer to the company concerned did / does not have enough insurance cover to pay damages.
Are clinical trials safe?
The FDA works to protect participants in clinical trials and to ensure that people have reliable information as they decide whether to join a clinical trial. The federal government has regulations and guidelines for clinical research to protect participants from unreasonable risks.
Although efforts are made to control the risks to clinical trial participants, some risks may be unavoidable because of the uncertainty inherent in medical research studies involving new medical treatments.
The government requires researchers to give prospective participants complete and accurate information about what will happen during the trial. Participants must sign an "informed consent" document before joining the study indicating they understand that the trial is research, and that they can leave the clinical trial at any time. This informed consent is part of a process that ensures a prospective participant in a clinical trial understands what known risks might be associated with the study, and whether there are potential, but as yet unknown risks that may be associated with the product being studied. This information permits someone deciding whether or not to enter a clinical trial to make an informed decision about the level of risk they are willing to accept before they enter the trial.
What - have you forgotten about what happened at Northwick Park three years ago already !-
I remember the test involving those men that went badly wrong but don't recall any other such cases - at least not that made the news.
I suppose, being tests, there has to be a gamble but I wouldn't like to predict the odds of something going wrong. Personally I wouldn't take the chance no matter how brilliant the money.
If you go ahead, I hope all goes well. Don't want to lose you from ByeDr.com!
they shouldnt do drug testing on animals or humans if they are so intrested why dont they do it themselves , fanella you shouldnt take a risk these people do anything , even if the money is high its not worth it ..
about as safe as taking drugs
they would test them on animals.
Apparantly not too safe. that's why they are on trial...so they should be restricted to people that have no other options
was that just a one off or is it a regular thing that happens?
Answer:
They have to be reasonably safe and already teasted on animals i think. You'll be right go for it. You could potentially save lives.
That's the beauty of it. Or the uglyness. It's a test; no one will know what is going to happen and that's also why you're getting paid so much money.
Drug testing is just that...testing, they aren't sure how it affects humans yet, that's why they pay so well, anything can happen to you...from nothing...to death. I wouldn't do it..try donating sperm..or eggs, whatever gender you are.
Read the fine print. They will own you. If someting goes wrong, oh well.
Oh my goodness no. But it is a 50/50 gamble; you could be one of the lucky ones and be given the placebo.
Human testing is not safe, but necessary.
You are risking serious health problems for the rest of your life if anything goes wrong and things do go wrong.
It is up to you to decide if the money is worth the risk.
READ all the paperwork as some companies have clauses that relieve them of all responsibility if anything goes wrong.
And very few insurances cover human trials.
Normally quite safe as they test on animals first but if u r on meds already they may interact and cause all kinds of irreversible problems...
They are as sure as they can be that the drugs are safe to use on humans. But things can go wrong but 100s of new drugs are launched every year if it was so risky it wouldn't happen
I think you answered your own question here. Yes, we all heard about the previous set of trials where people reacted very adly, but you do realise that these trial occur daily in many different places, but still, you've only heard of one lot going wrong.
Obviuosly, there are risks, but as you say yourself, how can we be sure that any drugs that we take in the future are safe for us unless they have been tested.
I know I'll get a slanting for this comment, but, I would prefer my drugs to be tested on people rather than animals. A asprin will kill a goat, but we can take 8 a day? Go figure!!
You will be told the risks before each trial %26 there's nothing stopping you from saying "no, this one is not for me".
My friend did it for years. I would if I wasn't a nurse (they don't appreciate you turning up for work with certain illnesses)..lol
If you do these trials - we will all owe you a big thank you :)
Good luck in your choice.
It can be a good thing to see if the drugs work but as you said there's a risk involved...just a reminder... :-
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/londo...
There is a risk. The case you refer to would seem to indicate that sufficient precautions are not always taken.
In the case you refer to the company concerned did / does not have enough insurance cover to pay damages.
Are clinical trials safe?
The FDA works to protect participants in clinical trials and to ensure that people have reliable information as they decide whether to join a clinical trial. The federal government has regulations and guidelines for clinical research to protect participants from unreasonable risks.
Although efforts are made to control the risks to clinical trial participants, some risks may be unavoidable because of the uncertainty inherent in medical research studies involving new medical treatments.
The government requires researchers to give prospective participants complete and accurate information about what will happen during the trial. Participants must sign an "informed consent" document before joining the study indicating they understand that the trial is research, and that they can leave the clinical trial at any time. This informed consent is part of a process that ensures a prospective participant in a clinical trial understands what known risks might be associated with the study, and whether there are potential, but as yet unknown risks that may be associated with the product being studied. This information permits someone deciding whether or not to enter a clinical trial to make an informed decision about the level of risk they are willing to accept before they enter the trial.

How reliable are medical lab results?
Answer:
Depends on the results... they are usually pretty certain... especially blood tests and pathology reports... need a little more info... what did you have tested?
Generally they are very reliable, when in doubt, unusual result, get it retested.
Generally reliable. Now and then, the people who work in the labs screw up. Wrong person's chart gets results added,
or numbers incorrectly copied.
If you are uncomfortable with a result, you can get the test done again.
It really depends on the quality of the lab and the adequacy of the sample. Labs must meet certain standards and they are evaluated every so often. Usually you can find out about the lab you are going to by making a request. As long as you are going to a well-established lab, I think you can count on reliable information. The specimen you submit must be obtained according to certain specifications, ie length of time to testing, and as long as these are met, you have the most reliable result. Hope this helps.
About as reliable as anything else. There can be false positives and false negatives. There are also cases of switched or lost tests. If you are concerned, consult your doctor or another doctor.
How old were you when you got your first gray hair?
How common is it to get gray hairs at 30? Genetics or trauma?
Answer:
When My daughter was a teenager 30's is normal for lots but not all. Could be genetics. My father died at 72 and didn't have hardly any gray. I think women gray faster than men and I'm usually right but have been wrong. Using hair colors and treatments I think causes a lot of early graying I think the chemicals are designed to get you hooked to keep buying products. But I have been wrong. If you think about it women color their har much more than men, I started using just for men for my beard, it worked to cover the gray but when the product started to fade of loose its purpose I noticed more than ususal amounts of gray.
25. All depends, a lot of it has to do with genes. My mom was all gray by the time she was in her 40's.
i got my first at 23 and now I am 30 and have a ton. I have been meaning to color it for hours but now I have to go to bed. Genetics baby! Just wash that gray right outta your hair
freaking 16!!
my best friend found it.
and thought it was the funniest thing ever. that biotch.
I was 26. It's genetics unless you've had chemo therapy or something like that. My mother went gray in her 40's.
29 for my first
never had a gray hair!...I lost them...went bald!
i thought i had one when i was 10, but it was a loose hair from a halloween wig! lol hahaha
I know people who had gray hair in their early 20's. I think it's genetics. My parents are in their early 70's and have only a few gray hairs, I am in my 40's and I dont have any. Seems like people with dark hair get gray earlier.

How old do you want to be before you go ?
Life in general
Answer:
long enough to see my boy grow into a man. to see him succeed in all the things i've failed. to see him praise God and show love to his kids. i would have to say 70 is ideal for me
Before you go where?
I don't think of it as how old, I think in terms of competence. If I'm still able to get around, make it to the bathroom and all, I say let me live forever. The minute I start wearing diapers and talking to the walls? Then let me go.
I usually go daily, right after my 1st cup of coffee.
at least 80.

How old do you have to be to work in a hospital as a cna?
Answer:
You would have to be old enough to have gotten your CNA's license. I imagine there are programs that will employ you while you get certified. I am sure you would need to be 18 though.
5
18 as long as you are certified.
As long as you are certified you can go in there, but for insurance purposes and liability, you have to be at least 18 years old.
How old do you have to be to get in a Cna program? does anyone know about any cna programs here in CA?
Answer:
I'm not sure about CA but I live in Wisconsin which has the tightest rules and regs when it comes to CNA's and when I was 16 I became a CNA. I believe the age you have to be is 16.
I believe you just need a High School DIploma or GED. Most community colleges offer CNA programs
whats CNA?
How old do you have to be to become a CRNA?
Answer:
CRNA = Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist.
There isn't really a minimum age.
Graduate college @ 22 with BSN.
Minimum 2 years of critical care experience.
2.5 years of CRNA school.
So...
Let's say 26.5 minimum.
That assumes that you go straight into a critical care area as a new graduate, not an easy thing to do,
If you mean CNA (nurse's aide), then 18.
How often should someone unrinate in a day?
Answer:
I go about 8 times a day. My husband goes about 5 times a day. Depends on how much you drink and how much liquid is in the foods you eat. (Like watermelon is almost all water. )
I dont think theres a certain amount the you are supposed to urinate if thats what you are asking.
It all depends on how often you drink I would think.
It does vary as they say. There could be a problem if someone urinates to often though. Sometimes a person with an infection some place before, in or after the bladder may urinate to often and they will feel like more is in there but it won't come out, it may burn or be difficult to get started etc. Another problem that causes frequent urination is diabetes. And another is drinking diuretics, like tea.
Urinating not often enough could be a problem too. If you are not getting enough WATER in a day you make become dehydrated and urination will stop or be very infrequent.
How often do you call in 'sick'?
When you really just have better things to do? I did it yesterday and got SO much stuff done!

How often do I need a tetnus shot?
I think I had one last year - but I now have a new doc who wants me to get another.
Answer:
Request your medical records from your prior physician, and have them transferred to your new doctor, or get them and take them to your new doc yourself. Have your new doc look through your records to see if you did indeed get a tetanus shot last year.
Usually, the given time for a tetanus booster is once every 10 years (unless you've had a recent, penetrating wound - then they'll just give you one as a precaution). There are two kinds that are given to adults - the Td version, which protects again tetanus and diptheria, and the Tdap version, which protects against tetanus, diptheria and pertussis.
every 10 years.
Think isn't good enough.
If you are sure you had one last year then theres absolutely no need to have another for 9 years. If you are unsure...then get the shot, its better to repeat than not be covered.
I thought it was every 8-10 years...UNLESS you have a high risk accident...like stepping on a nail
It is every ten years and doctors can give them to you in between these times if for instance, you step on an old rusty nail.
Every 5 years...

How much, on a scale of 1 to 10 would you say getting a tongue ring hurts?
(not the soreness afterward, but the initial pain.)
Answer:
i'd say about a 3 its a pinch at least for me everyones different. afterwards is were its painful the burning. till it heals.
How would you rate biting your tongue unexpectedly on your scale of 1-10. Take that pain, and make it last about 5 seconds longer, and now you know exactly how it feels.
YEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!
Hmmm... I would say 9.67 at that mate! HAHAHA!
i don't know since i've never tried, but just looking at one i'd rate it 10!
Its quick. Stings a little. Doesnt last very long though. I'd say 3. Just DONT let it get infected.
I would say right away probably a 10! It depends on whether or not the person does it right...
It is a 9.3765487 on the scale. But for your Mother it is an ELEVEN!
9
It didn't hurt me. The thing they put on the tongue to hold it still pinched but I really didn't feel the needle go in. About 3 days after it did hurt! It swelled up and throbbed and I used lots of oral gel to numb it. After about 5 days it was OK and I haven't had any problems in the 5 years I have had it except for chipping some teeth.

How much X-rays can cause cancers?
Answer:
everyone has cancer in the body mostly due to carbon in the cells, however, it is dormant until something triggers it. You can go a lifetime without it becoming active so there is no SURE answer to that question.
there is no exact amount, there is not even 100% proof that xrays cause cancer!! I have been getting xrays since I was a baby, about twice a month, for a bone problem...I don't have cancer..and The X-ray is such a low beam!! I would be more scared of the sun causing cancer than an xray!!
How much X-rays and ElectroMagnatic ray can cause cancers?
Answer:
Very very very minimal.
For someone to get cancer from those, you need to be exposed on very regular basis or be exposed at a high level.
That is why radiology techs and radiologists have to wear a tag to see how much radiation they are exposed each year. That is also why the property (land) near powerlines are not developed for residential (usually) - because of the electormagnetic field generated from running electricity.
How much would it cost to get a skin mole removed? Does it leave like a huge scar?
I want to get my mole removed, it's on the side of me face, i cover it up with my hair, it kinda like pops out and i hate it. I want to know an estimate on how much it would cost? If insurance covers it? and if it leaves like a huge scar that won't get removed?
Answer:
It's usually the cost of a an office visit plus a minimal amount for lab work. If you tell your dermatologist it is suddenly itchy or painful then they will biopsy it and it will be covered by insurance. If you tell them it is purely because you don't like the way it looks then your insurance will say its cosmetic and not cover it. All in all it should cost about 150 before insurance pays. I had a mole removed from the side of my nose and now there is nothing no scar or anything. I went to two different docs because the first doc told me "If I remove the mole people will notice a pretty girl with a scar on the side of her nose.if you leave the mole in place, you'll notice a pretty girl with a mole". Needless to say I got a second opinion and had the mole removed and now they just notice a pretty girl! Get it removed!!! Good luck to you.
The cost of getting a mole removed depends on who you see and where you have it done. Yep. Sounds wierd. Family doctors, dermatologists and plastic surgeons will all remove moles for you, but the plastic surgeon will usually cost the most. It's hard to tell how much it will cost since insurance companies typically base what they pay on the usual and customary charges for the zip code your doctor is in.
Why does it matter where you have it done? In the state of Washington, if you have your mole removed at a facility, not in a hospital, but one that is owned by a hospital (University of Washington, Virginia Mason are two examples), you will be responsible for additional charges made by the facility. So do your homework.
Finally, there are different charges for the removal depending on what the surgery is. For example, if your mole is elevated above the skin and is small enough, you can have it removed by shave biopsy, which will usually leave a smaller scar than the one you might get with an excisional biopsy. The trick is that you need an experienced practitioner to do this, since if they remove too much, you have a dent in your skin, and too little, and it grows back. Another way of removing moles is to do a punch biopsy. One question I would have for you is are you prone to forming keloids, which are a form of exuberant scarring? That might make a difference for you as well.
The only other question is whether the doctor would want to send it off to have a pathologist look at it, which would be an additional fee. Good luck!
That would be called a biopsy and it really is not that expensive but you should have insurance for it.
It won't leave a huge scar. For the first few days, it will look like a scab but it will then go away. If you really want to speed up the process, put on miderma (for kids - depending on how old you are).

How much water does my body need?
There are varied oppinions by people on the amount of water intake needed for our body. Can someone give an answer that will help?
Answer:
We need to maintain the right balance with mother earth.The earth consists of 75 percent water so also our bodies.
To maintain the right balance the intake must be 1.5 times the out-put. Now the out-put can be through perspiration, urine and stools.
On an average to stay healthy one needs to drink at least 3 to 4 ltrs of water depending on your output.If you exercise or play a lot of sports you my even need to drink 5 ltrs in summer.
ive heard that the recommended amount of FLUID per day is eight glasses. when they say fluid they mean anything liquidy, including water itself. i.e. softdrinks, juice, coffee, fruit.
well you need at least 8 to 10 glasses of water daily in order to survive.
A certified health coach who works with me advises one half ounce of water per pound of body weight.
drink water, pure water. and about 2lt are ok. at summer you should consume more. it is good for your body since your body consists of 60-65% of water! also good for feeling full and eating less! of course there's no limit! bottom's up!

How much water do you have to drink to make a UA diluted?
Answer:
It depends on why you are trying to dilute it ... if you are trying to dilute your urine far enough to get rid of the evidence of illegal drugs, lots of water isn't going to help. Sorry.
How much sugar can the human body take?
I just wanted to know how much sugar can the human body take? Also if you can tell me how much sugar till you would get diabetes? thanks, also a site on the info would be helpful, thanks again.
Answer:
In 2003, four United Nations agencies, (including the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO)) commissioned a report compiled by a panel of 30 international experts. The panel stated that the total of free sugars (all monosaccharides and disaccharides added to foods by manufacturers, cooks or consumers, plus sugars naturally present in honey, syrups and fruit juices) should not account for more than 10% of the energy-intake of a healthy diet, while carbohydrates in total should represent between 55% and 75% of the energy-intake (table 6, page 56 of the WHO Technical Report Series 916, Diet, Nutrition and the Prevention of Chronic Diseases).
Sugar producers鈥?advice
On the other hand, the Sugar Association of the United States of America insists that other evidence[citation needed] indicates that a quarter of human food and drink intake can safely consist of sugar.
