A woman that I bumped into again, for the second time..swears that "eating anything with a face" or "eating anything with a head or eyes" is pretty much deadly for diabetics and pretty much everybody in the whole world, in general.She also has told me that eating potatoes,eggs, cheese, butter, milk, ice cream, yogurt, pasta, rice, are all really, really BAD for all of us..that it clogs up our arteries...and colon,and more..so does corn..which human beings cannot digest as well. She has also said that eating meat is horrible for us..because we humans just cannot digest the skin of an animal, that we were not "made" or "born" to do that at all!
Even fish!!

Also, she said the best thing to eat basically is greens...lots and lots of greens and fruits..and nuts...
if cooking use nut oils only!

I would love to know what you all think..and why?

this is mostly about diabetes...but, if you have other info, it would be gladly accepted!!

thank you!!

I'm often dizzy, light headed, with a headache. I know I have narrow vessels, what should I do to get my blood pumping if low blood pressure is the case? Exercise, yes, but what types?

Which is a better setting for the air conditioner? I am an asthmatic. During the past weeks, I had to turn on my air conditioner to alleviate my breathing conditions. However I have two settings on my a/c: cool and dry. Would I be in a better state on dry settings. I normally wake up on early mornings to take a whiff of my nebulizer. Hopefully these humid conditions would soon end. Anyone with Pulmonary experience or knowledge please advise. Thanks

My friend 25 years old now had a lumps in her both breast. She just take herbal medicines and didnt want to consult a doctor again because she was told that its already malignant. Shes still working and just bear the pain. she is single and young and she told me that she will just wait her time when it comes because she was already ready to die. I wonder how long she will live? I know she was in pain but she just hide this to us (her officemates) but in their home she was crying of pain. Were advising her to see a doctor but she refused to do so.

For two years, I had chronic hemroid problems. I constantly went to the doctor and was given creams, suppositories, etc. I requested a general surgeon to do a colonoscopy and was told I wasn't old enough to worry about anything serious and having a colonoscopy. I was 44 at the time. They told me again I had hemroids, and to change my diet, use stool softeners, etc. In January 2006, I went to the doctor again because I had an abrasion in the vaginal region. I was told I had a tear, and still had hemroids. By April 2006 the problem was still there. I went to my gynecologist because the "tear" was still bothering me. He pulled back the sheet, covered me up and told me to see an oncologist. Make a long story short, if they had done their job, I would have a 95% survival rate, instead of the 40-60% rate I have now been given. Stage 0 instead of Stage IIB. Would you sue? Is it a waste of my time and energy? I just can't decide what to do and would like some ideas from others.

Here's the story. 2 weeks ago i randomly threw up and had chills. that night i had a high fever of about 102, sweated out my sheets for three nights. i had a sore throat, swollen glands, nausea and a persistent headache and chills so i went to the clinic. the nurse swabbed me for strep, told me it came back negative but that they would culture it and let me know if it was positive later... no phone call (assuming it was negative) my boyfriend gets sick a few days later with similar symptoms and he gets tested for strep and its positive. several other people around me including my little sister, two coworkers and three friends have similar symptoms yet everyone gets rid of their illness within a few days. two weeks have gone by and i have only gotten worse!
-swollen lymph nodes
-weight loss
-vomiting
-chills
-dry cough and sneezing
-runny and stufffy nose
-fatigue
-stiff neck
-headache, nausea
-frequent vomiting
-shakiness (hypoglycemia probably)

PLEASE HELP! It's been 2 weeks of this!

I've had conditions in the past regarding my stomach and the pain I feel, real deep pain in my gut for about 5 to 7 seconds and then it goes away. The doctor on base here suggested Aciphex but that doesn't seem to help anymore. I do not wanna go to the doctor and go through all these tests like blood drawn, x-ray on stomach, stool sample, its just too much and I feel their doing it to maximize their incomes and business. Please someone give me some ideas as to what I should take or if someone else has gone through these problems I'd love to hear from you, Sincerely; Mike in Kuwait

My boyfriends mom was just diagnosed with breast cancer, and I don't know what to get her since it's a very hard time. Or should I just get her a card saying sorry?

I work in a cold storage warehouse (50 degrees F) and it's very dusty in there. When we blow our noses, it's a bit black. Sorry if that grosses you out.

Anyway there's no asbestos or chemicals, except for dry ice. It's just thousand and thousands of chocolate boxes, pallets, and insulated boxes for shipping.

So is it harmful?
