Health - 23 January 2007

I drink roughly 70 ounces of water a day and walk/run on my treadmill for 1 hour, 3-4 times a week and sweat while I'm at it. I'm 22 yrs old 5'8 and weigh about 155. My Mom and older sister say that I need to take 1/4 teaspoon of straight salt a day to stay healthy...Is this true or will it hurt me?

I can't stick to an exercise routine or diet if I don't have goals to meet in a certain amount of time. Some I'm going month by month and I'm trying to lose "x" amount of lbs in a month. But I also want to lose it safely.
I'm a 22 year old female, 5'11" and 180lbs.
How much weight can I lose safely in a month? And by doing what?

I use the mass stack from BSN right now (No-Xplode, Nitrix, Cell Mass) and I've gotten pretty good results, but recently a friend of mine asked me what supplaments were the best and I'd only tried the BSN stuff. So does anyone know anything thats just amazing for them or better than the 3 products I mentioned. Again, I'm not unhappy with my results, just curious to see if theres anything better out there.

Or do you think it's a good thing that they're building up their self-image?

Just wondering, because sometimes I feel like I get resentment from people when I tell them I work out at the gym

Hello, thanks for reading this, I'm very scared of what this is, I'm not even sure what it is. I have this little bump on the outside of my anal cavity, I don't know what it is. Its been hurting for a week or 2 I'd say, and I only checked to see what it was a couple of days ago and I'm real scared. I don't know if its cancer, external hemorrhoids, or what. It does not even hurt that much, not when I sit, not when I #2, not anything really, just direct contact. I don't want to tell anyone, or a doctor, it is embarassing for them to look there. I don't have bloody stool, nothing. It's just there and hurts abit when you put pressure on it. Does anyone know what this is? It's just a skin-colored bump like not really big...smaller than a marble. ANY help/advice would be great. Such as what it is, if it will heal by itself, or what I should do. Thanks SO much.

has anyone even tried this new acne product called Murad? and if so how was it, did it help you?

I've tried Proactive but that did nothing for me and i've tried it twice just to see if i did something wrong the first time, but yet again Proactive failed me , so i was thinking of trying this new product Murad. After all there's no harm in trying, right.

I have to come up with a power point presentation for work on how to prevent muscle pains and things like carpel tunnel. I want to give a little history on what the pain is, how it works, and some stretches to help prevent them. I need to know where I can find stuff like the examples on how to do simple preventive stretches for your arms, shoulders, chest, back, legs and hands. I know a few, but any help would be awesome. PLEASE help thanks!

Hey guys. I’m 17, and have had my braces off for about two years now. I have tried several teeth whitening products, but none have really worked well. Do you have any suggestions about really good products to use??

About five years ago I suffered a back injury, but I noticed the foot pain prior to that. It's gotten worse through the years. I've been telling my Dr. about it for a long time, he looks at me like I've got two heads.He finally put me on Cilostazol, I felt some immediate relief, but, it only works sometimes. No insurance. Tested neg. for diabetes. Please Help, any clues? I can't stand the pain.
