About

In a perfect world nutrition supplementation is not necessary. Unfortunately, we do not live in a perfect world. We live in a modern world and the more advanced we become, the more unnaturally we live. We adapt and change our environment, often to our own detriment. As a result of this we need to take supplements for our nutritional needs. Ideally supplementation includes changes and improvements in dietary and nutritional habits.

Open Question: Is this safe, considering the recent egg recall...?

I usually, about two or three times a week, scramble an egg or two for my dogs and bird. They adore it, gives them good nutrition, no worries. But is there any danger with the recent egg recall? I live very close to the farms that have caused the recall (in Iowa), so the odds are very high that that is where the eggs are coming from. I know the dogs will probably do fine, as salmonella isn't too common with them, but I'm worried about the bird. I know it's important to cook the eggs every the way as diseases could be passed easily through the eggs, but should I cease feeding them until everything is back to normal? I posted this in both the bird and dog section, as I will probably receive very different results throughout. kid, I could go into how and why it is completely normal for birds to eat eggs, and how it is in no way cannibalism, but that would take far too long. If you would actually care to know, email me, and I will send you the reasons back.

Open Question: p90x nutrition plan: bonking?

For every those who have done it and followed the meal plan. Today, two weeks into the program I completely and utterly ran out of energy while doing Chest and Back + Abs. I'm on the fat shredder part of the nutrition plan, and don't have that much fat on my body. Was this the infamous bonking described in the plan? Should I switch to the Energy Booster part of the plan? Unfortunately I don't have a body fat caliper so can't give you an exact percentage on my fat, and I know my guess would be inaccurate.

Open Question: Veg'ns: Would you trust a professor if they said the only reputable source of nutrition info is the government?

Vegetarians and Vegans: Would you trust a professor if they said the only reputable source for nutritional information is the United States government? This is a dietetics professor. Her and I were talking and I mentioned a website--She said I should look and look who made the website and what their agenda is, since most places have an agenda when reporting nutrition information, and the only place to trust is the government. I felt like saying that the government is the biggest agenda-orientated, for-profit organization there is, esp. when it comes to nutrition!, but I held my tongue. What do you think? Would you take what this lady tells you with a grain of salt and just learn the material to pass the exams but do your possess research on the side if you're curious to know if the gov. is really right? Or would you take what she says as the truth, since it is the government telling you this and we every know the government doesn't lie?

Open Question: Health Career Or Art Career?

Honest Answers please x( I'm going to be going into grade 11, and I really want to pick a career specifically, so that I can pick the correct coarses, before school starts, but I'm having a difficult time picking one of the two. Plan 1: I was thinking of becoming a (RD)Registered Dietitian, and than do some fitness related coarses, and work in a fitness facility, or work freelance. This means I would take these high school coarses: Biology, chemistry, and physics. I think food and nutrition would be a good choice, as well as Health and physical Education. When I think of this career, I don't find it to stressful, especially because its in the health career area. Plus taking some yoga, or aerobic classes would be chilly if I could, or just learn it by myself. I find this career good because I receive to receive the knowledge to know how to take care of others, and myself. Plan2: This is my second thought of what to do. Maybe become a game artist, or art director. I actually draw "OK" but I can't say I really was born to draw. I would take some art coarses in highschool, like visual arts and computer arts, and dramatic arts. Those art related coarses. For this plan I'm a bit blurr, not know ing what to do as plan 1, but I did give this a lot of thought. Please give your Honest answers, as this is really important to me. I need a little Push. xD

Open Question: My hamster wont eat all her food, just her favourite parts.?

Well, I just got a new hamster and I know that you shouldnt change their food rapidly, rather introuduce new food slowly, but I have no way to know what hamster food her previous owner gave her. So i'll just have to introduce the new food every at once. I got vitakraft hamster food. It has pellets, little tiny seeds, corn, and sunflower seeds. She digs in her food bowl and only picks out the sunflower seeds and corn. Im worried she's not getting every the nutrition she needs because she isnt eating the pellets or tiny seeds. What should I do?

Open Question: Can you please answer these somewhat hockey questions?

1.In 1900, the goal net was introduced to the game of hockey. Can you imagine how quick the game would be if there was still not a net…and if players shot a puck and it went in as a goal and play continued….as the puck ricochets off the back boards? Longest poorly worded question ever? 2.In 1914, the Toronto Blueshirts of the NHA win Toronto’s 1st Stanley Cup. If I went on the streets of Toronto, in front of the HHOF, and sold Toronto Blueshirts hockey sweaters for $60 a pop….how many do you think I would sell in an hour? 3.In 1929, Offsides was introduced. I know as kids we played games without offsides rules….but could you imagine watching a professional game without offsides. I think that might even be more interesting than the Winter Classic. If they televised a game without offsides or icing by two NHL teams, would you tune in or fall asleep? 4.In 1946, Babe Pratt became the 1st NHL player to receive suspended for gambling on NHL games. Have you ever betted on a NHL game for money? 5.In 1956, the USSR enters a hockey team in the Olympics and they win the gold. Rumor has it, their conditioning at the time was the reason for their success (nutrition, diet, and exercise)….which was something that the U.S. and Canada were not incorporating into their routine. What do you think would be the best exercise for a hockey player that does not involve ice or equipment? BQ: I received an online offer to receive a free St. Louis blues baseball cap in the mail. I was totally stoked until I proceeded to “check out”, and they wanted $8 for shipping. I do not hate the Blues nor do I adore them. I would adore their cap for free, but $8 is pushing it. Would you pay $8 for a St. Louis Blues cap?

Open Question: Nutrition Tips to gain some weight but remain healthy.?

I just need a tiny outline of what is considered to be a well balanced nutrition for a young professional like me. If someone could share some ideas and tips for a healthy daily nutrition i would be so grateful. I weigh 12 stones and i am 6 2". I Don't work out much apart from walking long distances (which i like). My daily nutrition would be something like: - Breakfast = 2 Toast Breads with Strawberry Jam and a bawl of Cereal, 1 glass of 2% fat milk and 1 glass of orange juice. - Launch = Normal launch including rice, meat, pasta. - Dinner = Normal dinner including pasta, sandwich, noodles. - Night Desert = Yogurt with honey. I always use sides like tomato dressings and lettuce to keep the balance between the meat, but i also need some veggie options as i don't have a full veggie meal in my nutrition. Some stuff like beans, lentils or those vegetables that you boil in the hob? Are these good for a meal? How do i make those? Thanks :D sry not 6'2" but 6'1" 26 yo.

Open Question: my 10 month old will not drink!!!?

Please help I am very concerned my daughter refuses to drink anything but she eats her solid foods fine. I'm concerned because the dr. told me her main nutrition is her formula until one yr of age it helps with her brain development and everyone said if shes hungry enough she will eventually drink something but she went 26 hours without any fluids so I was concerned she would become dehydrated so I filled a turkey baster up and had to force liquids down her and it has been the same for a week . I thought maybe she didnt want a bottle anymore so I bought six different types of sippy cups she will not take any of them either I cant be feeding her through a turkey baster for much longer I'm getting really frustrated and its messing up her schedule for sleeping because shes use to a bottle before nap time and bedtime and she will only take in 2 ounces with the turkey baster method and then she starts spitting it out. I thought maybe she didnt like her formula so I put half whole milk half formula but still refuses it even juices. I have taken her to two doctors the first said she had a soar throat and gave her antibiotics but that was a week ago and she is still not drinking the second dr. said to just keep giving her fluids any way I can so she doesn't receive dehydrated and that she will eventually arrive through but this week has been horrible any ideas On how I can receive her to drink on her possess?

Open Question: How should I start feeding me puppy raw dog food?

Ok, so I have an 8 week old Dogue de Bordeaux (French Mastiff) and I've been strongly researching the pros and cons of a raw diet. And I decided I am going to go ahead and try it out. I haven't talked to my vet about this yet, but I have talked to people that possess their possess pet stores about it. Instead of going and buying raw meat from producers off the internet, I'm going to go to my local grocery store and butcher shops, simply because it will be ALOT cheaper to feed my soon to be big boy. Ok, now that that's out of the way, this is my question- How, exactly, should I do this? Is it really as easy as seeing what's on sale at the grocery store, buying it, then plopping the right proportions in front of my pup? It just seems too easy! Also, if anyone knows, what's best to feed a quick growing puppy, nutrition wise? Oh yeah, and is there any part of an animal that shouldn't be fed to him? Or a certain type of animal? If anyone knows anything at every, please let me know. I just want to receive as much input on this as I can. Thank you!

When I met my husband of 5 years in 2006, he explained to me that he had two daughters 7 and 2 years old with his ex-girlfriend and they agreed to share parenting time half and half. The 7 year old child was not his child biologically because when he met his ex-girlfriend she had a 2 year old little girl( the 11 year old in question) from an unknown man and my husband at that time(before he met me of course) cared for her as if she were his possess and they later the had a child together (the 2 year old in the first sentence). i wish I didn't lose you? Well if we could quick forward to 2010 and the girls are 11 and 6 years od now, our blended family has been through a lot! The 11 year old in question does not want to stay with her mom any more because of attention, education, safety, abuse, instability, family history, neglect, and nutrition reasons. We have NO custody rights over the 11 year old but we have full custody of the 6 year old child. What can we do? What are her options in Michigan?

So the only cheese I eat is cottage cheese But at my gym I saw a poster of what to eat before you workout, and string cheese was on there..So I decided to buy some..This is the one I bought http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/nutrition-calories/food/polly-o-string-ums/string-cheese-string-ums-26-polly-o-mozzarella-48-oz/ Is it healthy for me? I think it has way to much saturated fat. and sodium. (it actually has 220grams) What do you think? I'm not on a diet, just trying to be healthy :]

Resolved Question: If I eat more food but excercise as well, will my body go back to the way it was before? Read :?

So, I'm pear shaped. 5 feet and WAS 125 pounds. I had a nice body, great curves, my butt was filled out really nicely, my chest was filled out nicely, tiny waist, the only thing was that my stomach and adore handles were a little chubby. they stuck out a little, and at 17 years old it's not acceptable. and my calves are HUGE, they're muscular but also fat, it sucks. so i decided i wanted to receive skinny. i'm now 110 pounds, but every my curves are gone.. i have no hips, no butt, no chest, no nothing. but my thighs and calves are still big, i'm still pear shaped. so my body actually looks WORSE. so i wanna gain my weight back, but healthier. not by sticking mcdonald's down my throat, i don't wanna receive flabby, i wanna be thick but fit and toned. i want a flat stomach and no adore handles, but i want my chest and butt back. if i eat it'll arrive back, but what could i do for my stomach to be flat? any excercises? If I eat more food, but good food (trust me, i lost 15 pounds in 2 months, i think i know good nutrition :D) so i can go back to 120 pounds, but without the fat, so i excercise more, do cardio sit ups quick walking squats every of that, will I receive my curves back?

Open Question: How can I naturally improve my eyesight?

I got my eyes checked at the nurses office at school and she said I have 60/60 vision. I already knew it was really bad though. I can hardly look 5 feet in front of me. 3-4 feet is most comfortable for me. 2 feet or closer is best. Plus even reading a book or close up feels nice of strained...well it constantly feels a little strained when I'm looking at anything no matter how close or how far. I don't have glasses or contacts and don't want them. They make your eyesight worse and I can't afford that. I know it's not genetics. My grandma and Grandpa on both sides still have good vision and don't need any glasses, my mom can look WAY far away. It's like hawk vision. My dad has 20/20 and so do almost every my aunts, uncles and cousins. I am on the computer a lot, play video games a lot and drink 6-8 cans of soda a day + no water except for maybe 1 glass every 6 months when I feel like I'm going to die without it. Because I hate water. I don't know if that has anything to do with it... Oh, I also pretty much only eat microwave and instant stuff since my mom can't cook because of health conditions and every time I attempt it I burn myself, burn the food or catch something on flame. (I'm serious T_T.) I also don't exercise much. Okay, none at every. I have no idea if exercise or nutrition can effect your eyesight, but some people say it can... Any thing that could help? >_<
