Plant sterols are in many good foods from a widely varied diet. From what I read they say that it is difficult to get the minimum 2grams per day because the body is not very efficient in utilizing it. Therefore they have created Benecol and chocolate containing plant sterols. I can't take this too seriously because it seems like industry is trying to cash in on something that comes free with a good diet. Is it true that our bodies are not efficient at breaking them into useful companents? Or is there someother way of optimizing the benefit? I have high Choldesterol and I want to avoid statins.

I was just informed that I might have to have a surgery to remove my gall bladder. The test results come back today and we find out. My question is this.... does anyone on here know what the surgery involves? Will I be in alot of pain afterwards? I have asked the doctor these things, but of course being a doctor they just say the same thing.... you'll be fine and have very little pain. I would like some honest answers from someone who has gone through this sort of thing. If I do have to have it out will I have to change my diet to a certain way of eating? This is all new to me. I would appreciate any advice you can give.

I'm a packrat! I don't think I'm a hoarder; ( that might be a more serious condition!) I like to think of myself as a collector! However, I sometimes get overwhelmed by my sentimentality and attachment to certain items. I save old magazines, ( I'm going to read them all someday!) I have lots of old clothes ( when I get skinnier, I'm going to wear them all someday!) I have lots of taped VCR movies,( I'm going to sit down and watch them someday!) I love pillows, ( they're here and there, and everywhere!) You get the picture! Whatever I save, I have tons of it!
What unusual things do you "collect"? And do you have a hard time throwing some of this stuff out? For me, there's always a reason I have to keep it! What makes us packrats do this? is there a cure?
My house is clean, I'm very clever at hiding the stuff! ;~)

I was hit by hepatitis when I was 8 years old; any constant danger still exists in my body?
I really do not know how to sort out what kind of hepatitis I had. I do not feel something wrong in me.
Would you please give me a help with this?

I have been having pressure feeling in my chest,and it feels as though i can't take a deep breath. Doctor has done lung test and chest x-ray and nothing so he refered me to someone and i was given Zoloft. Has anyone taken this? My sister and mother both suffer from panic attacks and take clonopine, they have taken these and say they had a bad reaction. Any info on this as well as clonopine if you have taked both would be great. I am nervous to take it.

Thanks
Jenn
