I want to Increase my metabolism because i used to be a cross country runner and stopped and i gained 20 pounds. Now I want to run every day long distance like I used to but I heard that I won't increase my metabolism instead it will make me gain more weight. I don't like lifting weights, all i want to do is run. So I have been running for the past 2 weeks for 45 minutes, 3.5 miles, 480 calories. Will this make my body stay the same? Can I run for an hour or an hour and thirty minutes or is that too much?

My husband is 25 yrs old generally in good health. Yesterday said he felt tired. This morning we went for Breakfast and we had to leave becuase he was feeling "weak". We went to the nearest clinic and we were sitting in the waiting room when he said he felt like he was going to pass out and couldn't sit in the chair any longer. He said he wanted to go lye down at home. He started tearing up and looked worried, he couldn't walk very well to the car. We got home he slept for 4 hours ate some supper and seems better. We are going to book him in for a full physical at the doctor but I was very concerned. He also recently cut his fingers on some sheet metal however there is no infection, and they were takaen care of by a physician. Any advice would be appreciated while we wait to get in the a doctor.....

I know the common cold is a virus. But I heard many years go that when our mothers told us to bundle up in cold weather to keep from catching a cold they weren't entirely wrong. Someone told me that a doctor told him that you can get the cold virus but if you do not get stressed, it will not have any effect on you. In other words if you can go out in subfreezing weather, chill factor in the single digits without hardly anything on, you won't have a cold even though you have contracted the cold virus. Does anyone know anything about this?

For the past week, my lower right eyelid has been constantly twitching. It will twitch 3-4 times every few minutes and is really annoying! Anyone know what I can do to make it stop?

By the way, I think it started when I was holding in my sneeze. I work in a bakery and don't want to sneeze on the food, so I perfected the "silent sneeze". Anyways, I held a big one in and that's when my eye thing started.

I was wondering if getting a good 9 hours of sleep and then waking up at about 6- 6:30 (sunrise) and playing and exercising with my dog would be a good jump start for my energy and metabolic rate??

also I really dont have a place to jog except for my little tiny yard so I cant do that at all!!!! what would be a good exercise outdoors with my dog??
I am 12. weigh 123 and Im 5 '2 so I was wanting to lose some weight but not too much!!! maybe starting summer break!?

I have been drinking green tea for 2 months and all I can feel is my metabolism speeding up. I have been drinking Celestial Seasoning green tea the whole time. Is this real green tea or not? Just wondering.

I understand we have to wait 7 years before prescription RX can have a generic on the market.
I don't know exactly when Pravachol and Niaspan first went on the market. I would like to find out when they would be eligible for generic. I have a donut hole on my Medicare Part D and this can make a difference as to whether I stay with my present carrier.

i dont know if popping is the correct word, but i'll be walking along (mostly happens at work, i work in retail) and suddenly my ear will feel blocked as if i have put my hand over it.

i havnt been changing altitutes, and chewing gum and trying to swallow doesnt work. i have no wax in my ears either.

Both my parents were very sick with the flu the past week. My dad has had it for a week, but is almost 100% better, and my mom has had it for 5 days, and is much better. I've been wearing gloves, hand wash my hands every 10 minutes, mask my face, stay away from them, and dont use same objects as them. Are the precautions im taking good, and now that they are feeling a bit better, can I start to use the same utensils as them?
