I have been out of school for 2 days now and I want to go back, but I am still sick with a cold (stuffy nose, cough, itchy throat).

Does anybody know any quick remedies to get me better over night? Please post the slightest ideas that come to your mind when you read this

My sister is considering Accutane to help clear up the blemishes on her face- but it has very severe birth defects, so we are kind of sceptical.

Has anyone used it? Did it work? Fast?

If you can help me then thanks much. I need to know what happens in Dental School. I mean this as in what all do you do? When you are practincing on each other does it hurt? Does it feel as if you were at an actual dental visit? Has anyone ever cried? What about people who get a little nervous, do you guys learn how to relax or what? Also and this whole mouth prop thing and rubber dams do you guys use those as well? I need to know for my research paper that's all. Thank you so much for all the info you provide me with. Oh and how did your dental school go for you?

So I know good old willpower is the best way to avoid unnecessary snacking, but what else might help. These days I can't seem to stop snacking!

ive heard that after a meal, if you do active exercise that requires you to bounce up and down alot (running, skipping ropes) you have more chances of having a piece of your food drop into the appendix when digesting, thus facilitating infection. i've actually felt the lower right side of my waist ache after doing what i just said. can anyone correlate that?

High fructose corn syrup is in gatorade, snapple, arizona, ocean spray, all sodas, etc. Some drinks like, vitamin water, and fuze, have crystaline fructose in it, is that healthy? I only drink juice and drinks without H.f.c.s. Is crystalline fructose ok?

Also, what about juice from concentrate? I think its good only to drink juices that say 100%. But the thing is they are allways from concentrate. Is that bad? Am I getting anything out of it?

(by the way, dont tell me fresh fruit is the best choice, i knw that)

Some juices say, not from concentrate, and no preservatives. Im guessing its more fresh and has more vitamins because its not from concentrate but can you confirm this for me? Also, because it has no perservatives does that mean there is less chemicals? Am I better off without preservatives?
So is the best juice is the one that says - organic, flash pasterized, all 100% juice, no preservatives, not from concentrate. Is this my best choice?
The freshest purest juice?

I am 17 and I am still going through puberty.


-5'8
-Very deep voice (got a lot deeper at age 15)
-Slowly growing facial hair

Will I grow taller or is this the end of the line I don't think I've grown much height wise for about a year now. People still think I'm a junior Is it possible that I might have another growth spurt or might even grow one or two more inches?
