How do you know if your body cannot process sugars?

2007-06-30 15:35:14 · 6 answers · asked by Kiwi 1 in Diabetes

Well my question has a few parts:
1 Will not eating as much as I used to slow down my metabolism?
2 How little food do you have to eat in order to have your metabolism slow down?
3 Would exercising keep my metabolism up even if I don't eat? (I don't see how your body could burn less calories by doing the same ammount of work, just because of not eating as much.)
4 If I ate really small portions like 7 times a day, would it be okay to eat less than, say 1500 calories?
Thanks in advance...

Oh and the reason, why I'm not eating as much, is that most foods irritate the ulcer, which, if you've ever had an ulcer, you know it's quite unpleasant.

Statins work REGARDLESS of resultant LDL level.


Statins work via

ANTI INFLAMMATORY

ANTI SPASM

ANTI CLOTTING

ANTI OXIDANT

ARTERY DILATING

IMPROVING NITIRC OXIDE LEVELS


and has NOTHING

TO DO with cholesterol reduction

RESEARCHERS IN OCT 2006 ADMITTED 'THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANT EVIDENCE LDL REDUCTION EXPLAINS THESE BENEFICIAL EFFECTS"

My friend said that I was bow legged (gena valgum) and I wasn't sure what that was but then I looked it up on wikipedia but then I learned that that was kind of oppsite of what she said. She told me that my knees go inward at the knee cap, but then I looked up knock knees (genu valgum) but I don't really think that it is as severe as my knees truly are. Ten points to whoever can fully explain both "disorders". I need details such as how many inches, where on my leg I should look at, maybe some non x-ray pics could help.

Im 41 weeks pregnant. When I was 36 weeks, I was tested for all infections(negative) as well when I first discovered I was pregnant. My bf just came to me and told me that he cheated on me in Sept...and may have contracted something bc he's experiencing a non-burning discharge. His dr said it maybe gonnhrea or chlaymdia(both spelled wrong). And hes concerned cause we has sex last week. QUESTION!!--If he cheated in Sept..and I had nothing, and he claims he hasnt cheated since, hows it possible that I may have something now. I thought all STds(except AIDS) show up then. And IF I have something since I was 36 weeks.....that means he cheated..Correct? And is it possible for a male to have discharge and it not be an STi or STD?

Ive been weighing myself everyday. And when I eat less I exercise more. And if I eat more. I exercise twice as much. There are days where I do starve myself. And others I eat only very little. My boyfriend is very worried about me. He says I should eat and not skip meals or eat too little. And I keep telling him I know its only for a little bit. But I can't stop I don't know what to do. I see myself in pictures and my mind says "You look so fat in that picture." And so I start to panic and I tell myself to lose weight, skip meals, exercise more & more do what ever it takes to change the way you look in those pictures. But my boyfriend and my friends told me they are really worried about me. Do I have some kind of eating disorder or a self inflicted disorder or something??

First, I would like to mention that I'm Asian but spent most of my life in Western society. My parents are Asians who did spend some time in US but has the Asian traditions.

My problem is this, I am currently a university student in US. Before I came, I had to chose a major and I was really into movie making therefore wanting to major in films. My parents are traditional so they believe becoming Doctor, Lawyer etc is good and was against my idea.

My parents fear that if I major in film and fail, I would be broke and poor and sees that I have little chance succeding. Instead they want me to take safe jobs in the future.

This is where I get confused, I have individualism idea therefore I think to myself why can't I do what I dream of? My parents say, they workd very hard to offer me education and if I do what I only want to do and fail, it's very rude.

I wish I had parents that are understanding and supportive to what I like and dream of. I feel like i'm living someone else's life.
