Health - 13 August 2006

My dad has renal kidney failure and he has been put on a very strict diet, with low, low, low protein, low or no potassium and low or no phosphorus in his food. We are all a little confused on what he can eat. Does anybody know someplace on the net I can find a list of foods that are low in these items. We really need help, it is very hard to find food that is low in these items and will fill you up, he is practically starving, he has gone from 165 lbs. to 123 lbs. in no time. PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Curiousity afoot. :D;

I was wondering if genetic eye color has some affect with the brightness of sight. For example, a person with light blue eyes sees everything with a slight brighter/lighter tone than someone with brown eyes.

I do not know to much about the eyes to begin with, though. I'm just wondering.

I know to go to a doctor and will do this. I'll do my research on your cures too. But here's the thing: my ear's killing me and I have a history with ear infections stemming from kayaking training in hot springs. They come and go. A recent plane trip made my ear freak out and now it's, well, in need of a helpful tincture. I'm grateful for any recipies you may have. Thanks!

I have chronic dry eyes, And just two months ago I went to the health food store and got fish oil, flaxseed oil, olive oil, and borage oils all in one. I was so amazed on how this product had helped me with the suffering of dry eyes 90% I recently pick a temporay job working outdoors, Im aware of the wind so I decided to prepare myself before i started this job, I have my sunglasses my eye drops and faithfully takes my olis before i leave in the morning. Well I realize that it doesn't help. My eyes burn, gritty, I took my glasses off and the sun bare down on my eyes so hard that I instantly got a headace and felt so nausea. I feel so so helpless and I feel like Im suffering "I hate this feeling" When I come home my eyes seems to be ok just a little. Im interested in the implants is it safe. Im a scaredy cat and afraid to have the operation. but Im tire of suffering. I know dry eyes unforunately never goes way. But in suggestions would help Please. Thank You.

My anxiety was out of control for a week. I am usually a really even keeled person who people come to for help. But last week while I was being tested for ovarian cancer I was a total wreck. Crying, no sleep, couldn't eat...giving myself hives. I know that there will be more times of extreme stress to come in my life and I really need to learn to get a grip on myself in the future. So my question is this....For those of you have gone through extreme stress what is it that got you through in one piece?

I've been trying to understand nutrition and the human body and am looking for any holes in my understanding.

Carbs are a main source of energy. Calories are energy units. To gain weight, you eat more calories than you burn during an average day; to lose weight, you eat less calories than you typically consume during a day. Protein is the major element involved in replenishing muscle fibers. Fiber helps the digestive track to flow and work properly. Vitamins are responsible for building cell tissue. A proper diet consists of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Muscles needs at least twenty-four hours to rebuild after working them to exhaustion...

I'm just curious as to my current level of understanding, if anyone has any tips please shoot them my way in this question. Thanks.
