Should US soldiers be released from the horrors of war before they go INSANE?

We Answered:

I think your numbers are a little high, because 1/5 of troops in Iraq are combat troops, the rest never go beyond the wire. so I could believe that 1/3 or the 1/5 may have some problems, but like some other user said, most of us just did your job and came home, you let the pass be in the pass and move on with your life.

biology in the news?

We Answered:

It seems to lean more towards health than biology. For biology, my guess is that you'd need to focus on the biological functioning of the vitamin.

But I think, for a report, it will be sufficient, because it does deal with a biological topic. Medicine is largely based on biology.

The second Hand Smoke Study......It is all bogus...It is not real?

We Answered:

so are you saying we shouldn't eat? last time i checked you need to eat in order to survive, not smoke. Are you really going to defend that second hand smoke does not kill? So during a fire can you not asphyxiate on the smoke? that smoke is second hand smoke as well. Bars and restaurants do not have to close at all, that is not the reason AT ALL why they are quitting. Is it really that strenuous to walk outside and smoke? are the customers that frequent the bars or restaurants not going to go cause you can not smoke? A restaurant is for eating, a bar is for drinking and games and what not, there is no establishment for smoking except for a crackhouse. Are you for crackhouses? And is it really the purpose of the government to police our choices and take care of our health? no it is not. The government is a laissez faire one. As for health, does the surgeon general say you can not smoke? No, but it does warn you what happens if you smoke. You have adapted a naive and wrong form of thinking, but you don't see me making a question berating you folks. Smoking is a choice, and i see you choose to die than to live. Appreciate life, don't throw it away as well as tons of money

¡Hola!
You're essay is not bad at all! i made some corrections, ''edited'' some parts and added the accents when needed (hope you don't mind). =D
Now, take a look!

Mantener una vida sana ha sido siempre un tema importante. Para hacerlo, la gente siempre tiene en cuenta ciertos aspectos. Entre ellos, mantener un equilibrio entre lo físico y lo emocional es el más importante. Son muchas las razones que lo justifican.

En nuestra cultura hay muchas herramientas de ejercicio o vitaminas por todas partes. Esto demuestra que muchas personas se interesan cada vez más en cuidar su salud física. Sin embargo, a menudo se olvidan o no consideran la importancia de la salud emocional. Por ejemplo, un studio relizado por Gatchel en 1995 demostró que los factores psicológicos predecían el 91% de las veces que pacientes con dolor de espalda se recuperarían de un dolor agudo y cuales acabarían con un dolor crónico. Todavía, muchas personas se preguntan por qué los enfermos crónicos no se curan con medicina.

Lo que estas personas no saben es que una salud emocional desequilibrada también puede causar el dolor fisico. Por ejemplo, algunos trastornos psicólogicos, dice Polatin, parecen predecir la aprición del dolor lumbar. Ormel también dice que la discapacidad física estaba más asociada con factores psicológicos que con diagnósticos médicos. Por estas razones, si usted no logra controlar su salud emocional, usted, como Toreno, puede experimentar algún trastorno físico.

De modo contrario, una buena estabilidad mental y corporal pueden ayudarse mutuamente. Un estudio pubilcado en Archives of Internal Medicine muestra que aquellos pacientes que aprendieron técnicas de manejo del estrés tenían menos probabilidades de tener un ataque cardíaco. También, hacer yoga podría ayudar a alivianar su mente tensa con movimientos lentos de los corporales. Yoga sintoniza la mente y el cuerpo para el mejor resultado, una vida más profunda y serena.

Es importante que nosotros tengamos cuenta que hay una relación entre lo físico y lo emocional. Un desequilibrio entre estas dos facetas conllevan una vida con dolor; el equilibrio es la clave para la vida sana.

Hope i've been helpful
good luck! =D

Did You hear About This MAJOR BLOW To The INCORRECT Lipid Hypothesis?

We Answered:

cholesterol,

You didn't quite get it right, which means that you got it wrong. Here's how that abstract ends:

"Clear, compelling evidence supports near-universal empirical statin therapy in patients at high cardiovascular risk (regardless of their natural LDL cholesterol values), but current clinical evidence does not demonstrate that titrating lipid therapy to achieve proposed low LDL cholesterol levels is beneficial or safe."

What this means is "If you have high cholesterol, lowering it works, and everybody can prove it. Getting it as low as current recommendations propose does not have supporting evidence."

It does NOT say what you say it says, that lowering cholesterol does not work or that the "cholesterol hypothesis" is disproved. It clearly says that lowering cholersterol works in people with high cholesterol.

You may also want to look at this issue of the same journal:

18 September 2001

that says:

"This article reviews the pathophysiology of this disorder, focusing on the changes in lipoprotein particle number and composition rather than lipoprotein lipid levels. The in vitro and in vivo evidence that small, dense LDL are more atherogenic than normal larger, buoyant LDL is summarized, and the particularly high-risk state conferred by increased numbers of small, dense LDL is delineated."

Which says that some forms of cholesterol are worse than others, causing athersclerosis.

The Annals of Internal Medicine nowhere says that the "lipid hypothesis" is wrong. Nowhere.

Sorry about that.

Is this article True?

We Answered:

More (& longer term)studies need to be done, but current studies do indicate a connection of sleep patterns to basic health!

Why is Obama trying to kill Americans?

We Answered:

I don't believe he hates Americans.

Sadly I believe the president is only a puppet for the US government now. They never make their own decisions. It's all decided along with the government. He can't do much of anything sadly.
