I bought some lotion with SPF in it from costco. I usually use a lotion from the body shop but the costco brand was a better deal...except now my eyes are burning and this didn't happen with the body shop lotion.

I've recently read an article about a woman in North Carolina (USA) who could loose her son (who is 8 years old) because of his extreme obesity. She said what some of the things she fed him were, one of the things she said she fed him was "Sweet fat"......I've googled and looked and searched, but to no avail. Does anybody know what this stuff is?

It seems to me that normal people are seen as not true Americans unless they are on prescription for a number of drugs. Honestly, specially antidepressants. As hard as it may be to deal with certain situations, being on 5 different drugs doesn't help, specially once a person becomes addicted to them(you know it happens).

I was just diagnosed with diabetes and I am 7 weeks pregnant. Obviously, I'm supposed to avoid sugary treats--but the doctor acted like starchy foods would raise my blood sugar too. I really want to make sure my blood sugar is stabilized for my baby's health. So, if you know, what are specific diabetic-friendly foods, and what are foods (other than the obvious sweets) that I should steer clear of? Thanks for any advice!

I have short, stout legs and my quads tend to bulk up very easily when I exercise. What toning exercises can I do to make my legs appear long & lean? What about cardio?
Should I not use the elliptical for cardio or is there a wrong way to work out on the elliptical?

Thanks.

I am scared to take any type of medication, especially pills because I'm afraid I might choke on one! But the main reason I'm so adverse to medication is that I'm afraid I might eat something or take another medicine that will cause a fatal combination! No matter how sick I may be, I'd rather let it go away on its own than take medication for it! And, honestly, I don't remember the last time I was on meds. I'm in college right now and at times I get a bad cold or just really stressed out, and instead of going to the health center, I wait for whatever's ailing me to go away because I'm afraid that if I do go, they'll give me a prescription!

Am I just being delirious or are fatal combinations common? Do you think I need professional help to get over my phobia?

Thanks in advance!

I just felt my heart pounding really hard for about 3 minutes. It was when I was sitting down watching TV. Now I kinda feel this tightness in my chest. I'm kinda breathing differently because I found that to help a little. I'm 13 years old and pretty healthy. I'm a vegetarian, so maybe I'm getting some nutrients? Is this something serious?

Lately, I feel like i have no energy. I'm drinking water thoughout the day. Eating the regular foods i used to. I've gained about 10 pounds in the past 2 years, which is not that much i think for two year span. I get on average 7-8 hours of sleep per day. I've tried Red Bull, and other evergy drinks but they are no good, and taste like they are loaded with sugar. Is there some other kind of drink that will wake me up, give me more energy, but not add anymore pounds. Or is there a fruit that gives a boost of energy? Thanks in advanced.

I can't find one unhealthy thing on my ingredient list
Bread flour, water, sugar, salt, yeast
Plum tomatoes, onions, garlic olive oil , basil , oregano ground fennel seed
Part skim mozzerella cheese
grated locatelli romano
Looks healthy to me but I seem to have a minority opinion.

my daughter has been sick off and on since January. About every other week she gets a fever about 101.5. Then on top of that she has gotten strep throat and ear achs. She also, 5 weeks ago got a fever of 105. So today she has another fever, her ear was very red and i scheduled a doctors appointment. She was taking a nap and when I woke her up her ear had drained all over the side of her face, wiped it off and took her the drs. The dr told me nothing was wrong with her ear, there was no drainage in it and again told me she had strep throat, she had that 5 weeks ago also. I asked him if something else could be wrong and he told me i was worrying too much and its normal. Is this normal?

I am having side effects such as shortness of breath, dizziness, and weakness. I have seen a respitory therapist and been told I may have asthma. What other medications should I consider talking to my cardiologist about. I know he will prescribe something else if he feels it is warranted, but I would like to know some additional options myself and be able to make an informed decision.
