i have heard that green tea is good for helping to lose fat, although i cant stand the taste of it. Is it ok to eat the leaves? will it do the same thing as drinking the tea?

Alright, so. Every once in a while I get this pain on the left side of my chest, it feels as though a rib were poking a hole into my lung. It hurts to breath after that and I am only able to take short shallow breaths. It goes away after a few minutes but it's rather painful/annoying. The thing of it is...
It doesn't happen all the time, maybe once every week or so and I'm not sure what causes it or why. it scared my friend and she suggested that I see a doctor.
My question would be,
Would you reccommend the same?

I get these bumps on the inside of my mouth. It forms on the inside of my top lip on the side and is very painful. It goes away on it's own but in time it comes back and it's very annoying. It's a little red. Is there a name for this and is there something I can use to make it go away for good? Please, I need help to resolve this issue. Thanks.

im 5'2ish and about 120 pounds. I am pretty lean and dont look fat but I want to lose weight; I used to be 105-110 and id like to be that much again). Heres my plan; 1000-1500 cal. eat generally healthy, veggies, lotsa water, fish, a lil bit of fats etc. Exercise everyday (5-7 times a week) on treadmill for about 30 min.(burning 300ish cals). I dont know my BMR btw. So heres my main question; how much weight should/will i lose and how fast? Also im very fed up with the "burn more than u eat" and then u'll contradict it and say "some workouts build muscle which weighs more; so dont worry about what the scale says" All i want to know is a way to weigh 110 lbs., healthily and ASAP. Thanks! <3

The dentist was highly recommended here by someone. However, my experience was just opposite and I had to leave the place after paying $175 just for being checked in the name of Complete Examination, which, I think, was not necessasy. When I made the appontment I was told that it will cost me only $65.

My 6 wk old son has these tiny little bumps all over his face, head and back of neck. I think it itches him cuz he's always trying to rub his face. at first it was just a few scattered over his face and head and the nurse told me that its baby acne, and not to put anything on it it. I closely watched this for about a week and it started to progress and make him uncomfortable to a point where I had to go in to see the Dr. who said that it is eczema and odered pramasone (a topical cream) for it. Others who have had babies think that it is thrush, and that he should also be taking something oral. What has me concern is the fact that I heard that thrush makes the tongue white. My son's tongue is white. Has anyone's kid experience similar problem, and if so what was used to treat it.
