They say that chewing gum lasts up to 7 years in your stomach if swallowed. So I was wondering what would happen if you swallowed a lot over a long period....???

For example i have some Milk Thistle and it says 'helps promote liver function' on the bottle. there's no way to prove it really does anything, is hebal supplements and herbal stores (like in malls) a big money scam?

I am on my period, but my boyfriend for 3 years is coming to see me so we can go out. I don't get to see him often because of the distance so I want us to be "intimate". He has no problem doing it while I'm "on", but I would like to lessen the blood flow. Help!

LONG BEACH - The owners of the Fysicly Fit gyms closed up shop at four sites Wednesday, leaving scores of clients and a cadre of trainers out in the cold.
There were only vague messages posted on the locations themselves, telling former customers that unforeseen circumstances led to the sudden move.

The owners, identified by employees as Craig and Yvonne Claro, moved.
The four locations that were closed up Wednesday were at 5542 E. Second St., in Naples; 148 Main St., Seal Beach; 301 Atlantic Ave., in downtown Long Beach and a Just For Her Fitness branch at 6549 E. Pacific Coast Highway. A supervisor said he had received an e-mail that the closure was necessary due to emergency circumstances. A number of customers complained of losing substantial amounts of cash for their prepaid memberships and personal training sessions.

At my high school just outside of Cleveland, our towns fast food strip area, with all the big ones like Taco Bell, Hardees, McDonald's ect, are less than a 5 minute walk from our school. I can actually see those big tall signs like the big M from one of my classrooms.

At lunch break, basically the whole school just goes to the fast food part, and it gets so busy because there is catholic high school just near us, and all there kids get off at the same time as us for lunch. I seriously don't even know why we have a caf in our school since it's like so empty at lunch. Our school is big so it's split into two lunch breaks, period 3 for grades 9/10 and 4 for 11/12. I know as a fact that the caf is just as empty on both breaks.

So do you think this is why kids are so over weight? Because schools are too close to the fast food joints?
