I my nephew is 13 years old, but he is very smart and he always is worried about the heart diseases, most of all Arteriosclerosis; and he only wants food in low fat, low satured fat and low cholesterol, low sodium and carbohydrates.

I think that it's an excellent habit, creating at that early age; but the situation is that he is growing and developing himself, and he only drinks fat free milk, I told him that don't be worried about that; he takes care about himself, makes exercise, he eats healthy, salads, fruits etc.

So what can I do? should I explain him well the situation about this topic? or should I take him with a doctor and he explain to him all these types of things, I will be living with him for 3 weeks, during my sister is out of town, he is 1,60cm tall, and he weights 130lbs.

Any suggestions???

We don't have this history in the family. But on my current situation, I am exposed to the furs/hairs of this feline. I have this coughing feeling in my chest and now I'm worried.

1) Would it be possible?
2) What do I do to minimize, if not avoid this risk? I'm stuck in this place, so I can't move out for a while.
3) I need advice. Please help.

Thank you!

is there something in orange juice that helps bring your blood sugar back up faster? (besides sugar and carbs) the only reason I am asking is because I have seen questions that have to do with low blood sugar and a lot of answers saying that you should drink orange juice to bring your bs back up. why orange juice?

In NYC, a pack of ciggies are like $8. You would think kids cant afford it so they couldnt get it. You would think people would just quit because they would save money. You would think the high number of cases of cancer would be a good motivation. People who smoked before, I'm sure its hard...but is it still on the rise? I read the news about it and it doesnt seem to have reduced as much as some want it to. You think it will always be like this or do you have hope?

About 2 hours after eating at a buffet, I am having a hard time breathing and my chest feels tight.

My fingers, and skin all over is itching, burning, and stinging.

What could I have eaten that did this to me? It was Chinese.
