A lot of Fish oil on the market today does not specify which part of what fish is used to make the oil. Therefore how can people who buy these products know what they are getting? Fish!!!! could mean Mackeral hallibut, cod, etc, all with different levels of omega 3. In the race to sell us suppliments to help us be healthy, are the people selling "fish oil" actually selling oil which may or may not be that good for us but making us think it's doing us some good? Talking point for a Wednesday. Any ideas?

This is a serious question and no anti-smoking comments please.
I smoke a pack a day and recently when I inhale I get the feeling I'm going to vomit.
I'm wondering what could be the cause of this.

I drink a glass of prune juice every day in the morning and that helps me avoid constipation.

But I am concerned if this would have any ill effects on my body, especially the GI tract?

Appreciate your responses.

Warwick Uni in UK have found a way of turning the flu virus into a vaccine - by genetically modifying it - the virus literally kills itself. This means that bird flu can now be dealt with. Hurrah!

I was told this is an old wive's tale. However, my Mom refused to turn the heat on last week and it was in the 40's and I was freezing! Lo and behold, I have a nasty cold this week. I know its unhealthy to keep the heat high but when it's very cold and not on, can't that make you sick?

.... This causes severe pain in my ear, which I know is connected, what I dont understand is, what is the cause of this considering it flares up every couple of months, and, why is only one side affected? does this point to a weakness in this area, and is it related to SEVERE head pain sometimes whilst on a flight. (Also on the same side of my head as the swelling lymph gland.)

Is there anywhere that has the 'ingredients' of certain brands of cigarettes, as in the chemicals and aromas added, would cigarette manufacturers give me/us the information…or like tampon manufacturers, etc. are they protected by law meaning they don't have to tell us how they make or what goes into their products?
