Health - 24 May 2007

My grandpa (81 years old) didnt drink alot of beer, yet he has a gigantic beer gut.
My grandpa's brother (78) has a very large beer gut, but I do not know if he was even a drinker.
My father (45) drinks beer daily and drank a lot more often in his past, but his beer guy is not that big, but there.

Me (24) drank beer every weekend in college, but do not drink beer hardly ever anymore. I am not real fat, but I just have a little excess fat on my stomach. When I push out, it really scares me, because there is room for me to have a huge gut for my size.

Is this genetic? Is this my future, nothing I can do aobut it? I am scared lol.

I'm 18 years old and weigh 138lbs and I was wondering if exercising (stretching,weightlifting etc) will increase my chances of getting taller and build more muscle and more weight since I'm under weight. I've had this height since I was 16 so I'm wondering will I grow any taller or have stopped? My brother did grow a little after 18 so I not sure if I will grow. So what do you think?

Your answers will be appreciated.

i used to work out every day but then i heard of overtraining so then i did upper body one day and lower body the next with no rest days. Recently i did upper body one day lower body the next then a day off then back to uppuer body and so on and still no results. Now i started a new routine yesterday where i do upper body(chest, shoulders, biceps) then rest day then i do lower body, back and triceps(triceps,back,legs) then a day off. So now its workout-dayoff-workout(different body parts)-day off- then continue cycle again. That means im working out four days a week now, only two days of the same body parts a week, this is because i'm trying to see if my problem is overtraining and now i want to see if i gain more muscle with more rest. Sorry for all the writing but i really do care about this. Also i am around 5'10"-5'11" and only weigh 122lbs.(as of yesterday. Any suggestions? Or should i keep this new routine going? Thanks

My TSH results were 4.70 and the ref. range is 0.44-4.37. What exactly does this mean if it is in the" ORH-Reference range high?" How does it affect you if it is too high

Your eyes and my eyes are suppose to be the white. Not the pupil but the white part. :P but unfornately mines are dark because sun damage or burn scar tissue I assume. Is there anyway to make them white again by using a safe method. Don't ask.
