I know that the body can only use so many calories immediately, and the remainder that you consumed in your meal will go to storage as fat or glycogen. I want to know what the average or estimated number is for calories your body can immediately utilize. Using this information, a dieter can determine how many calories to have per meal, and how many of these small meals to have per day. Naturally, having meals with only this many calories will mean eating numerous such meals at regular intervals throughout the day, not just the tpical breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Have a friend who blows her nose anywhere and everywhere (doesn't wash her hands afterwards either). She does it during or right after dinner (at the table), while cooking, while just sitting around the kitchen table (like after dinner). My family is very germ concious and gets grossed out. I've mentioned to her that she should leave the room for major nose blowing, but it didn't seem to sink in. Is my family just too picky? ... no pun intended.

I'll try to keep this short.
I am 21 years of age, and for the past five years, I used to get chronic strep throat, and then they put me on allergy medication. However, I still get a sinus infection at least once, if not twice, a month. I am on allergy medication and a prescription strength version of Mucinex to combat the sinus infections, not to mention a regular mutli-vitamin, vitamin C (etc) and constant fluid intake.
I feel as though I have done everything I can do to prevent these chronic sinus infections, but to no avail.
Is there a doctor who is in a specific field of medicine that you could recommend I look into? Thus far I have seen an allergist, ears nose and throat, and an internal medicine physician. Or perhaps should I revisit them?
I am really at my whit’s end. My parents are exacerbated by it as much as I am.
Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I have been feeling rather 'ucky' lately. It first started off with a very short sinuse headache. Then it was a dry cough just because my throat was irritated. Then, It was a very wet cough with lots of green mucose along with. Now, my nose has now been giving me this chunky green mucose and I have been sleeping with 4 blankets and the heater. My dorm feels like a sauna. I feel fine during the day, a bit run down but not too bad, but yet at night I just want to die because my chest hurts so much from coughing. Now, the cough isn't so wet lately, it is sjust dry and hurts. Is this walking pneumonia and what should I do? Wait it out?
