I bought a multivitamin formula for my daughter aged 9 on my doctor's advice. I have been reading the "supplements facts" on the bottle and have compared it to the RDI for children aged 4-12. Most of the vitamin / mineral concentrations in the formula are four or five times the RDI. For example the formula contains 250 mg vitamin C (4 times RDI), 120 IU vitamin E (4 times RDI), 135 mcg vitamin B12 (22 times RDI). Is this safe for a child??

I'm confused. I'm insulin resistant, but have been told to try Stevia. I looked it up, and supposedly it does not raise blood glucose levels, but rather lowers them because it stimulates insulin secretion. But I thought that one of the problems I was having (I have PCOS) is that the level of insulin in my blood is too high, therefore causing some wonky hormone reactions. Is there some sciency person out there who can tell me why Stevia is supposedly good for diabetics and other insulin challenged folks? Is it only good for diabetics but not insulin resistant people?

Does anybody know why I get a sharp, stabbing pain on my skin? It feels like being pricked with a hot pin, or receiving an electric shock, and can occur anywhere on my body, but usually emanates from a leg or somewhere on my abdomen. It tends to happen only once or twice per day. Sometimes accompanied by a strange, unpleasant "stunned" feeling- anyone who's maybe touched a bare wire and had a good jolt of electricity will understand what I mean by that.
Thank you.

I want to donate my body to science after I die and would like to know if there are any forms or places to contact to inform them of this? I have put this request in my will already. I don't plan on dying anytime soon but I would like to know this information but would like to know just in case something does happen in the near future.

Also, I would like to know if any body part remain will they be able to send them back to family to cremate?

Thanks
I heard about something called a bequest form? Info please?

When I stand around...even for just a few minutes, I start feeling really weak and hot - to the point of sweating - and my legs feel "heavy." If I'm in line somewhere and can't sit down, my heart starts pounding and I feel dizzy. I eventually have to lean on something or squat down because I feel like either my legs will give out or I'm so dizzy that I will pass out. And...I'm only 22 YEARS OLD! Anyone else have this problem? ps: My blood pressure has always been right on target (if that helps).

Earlier I was telling myself it had been two hours and I could take another cough drop. Then about 20-30 minutes later I took one. The thing is, after I finished it, I realized I had been talking abiut taking one earlier. And I actually forgot if I took one that half hour earlier.

Now, if I did end up taking two in that short period of time (because you're only supposed to have one every two hours), um, what would happen??

It was almost my turn to be seen, then a pharmacy rep with lots of make up, came in with a delivery boy with food in hand, gave my doc some food, had a little discussion with her.
Then my doc came in , saw me for only 10 min, gave me a prescription, then she went back to eating the food.
