Question: How much alchohol can you consume before it having an effect? How much do you have to consume to start feeling an effect such as feeling more relaxed, happy, etc. How much can you consume before getting drunk?

Answer: hmmm depends on the individual but i'd say the average for a male is 4 or 5 standard drinks (standard drink being either a bottle of beer, glass of wine or a 30ml shot of 80 proof spirits) To get drunk on average for a male maybe 12+. When I say average thats here in New Zealand from what i've seen. As a femlale probably around half of what I stated.. But honestly tolerance, weight etc. will all influence it so you'll have to work it out by experimenting

Answer: Interesting question. How many young people, say 30 and younger have paid into a health insurance plan since they were first employed? How many of these have had extreme health issues that otherwise would have wiped them out? Truth is, and the insurance companies know, is that the youth have *always* subsidized the elderly because statistically,one is more likely to need to *use* health insurance when one is older, than when one is younger. So, younger folks premiums go to the cost and care of those who are older. In a way, not unlike a Ponzi scheme. Is this bad? In strict terms of the youth subsidizing their older compatriots, no. But when it gets dicey is that the youth get old eventually, and when they get their insurance revolked because of a pre-existing condition, or, they have become too expensive to cover and subsequently get cancelled by their health insurance company, that's when it becomes criminal. So, short answer, no. There should be a Public Option that ensures the health care of everyone.

Question: What are the side effects of consuming alcohol. is it good to consume if you are a diabetic? I am diabetic and on medicine for the past 8 years. Please suggest whether i can consume alcohol.if so what quantity and at what frequency. whether it will benefit in controling my sugar level.

Answer: Contrary to all other answers, alcohol is not a bad thing for a diabetic. Type 1 just adjust insulin. In type 2 it lowers blood sugar. Do it in moderation. I do about 6 beers a day. Granted its hard to keep weight down , but we have to live don't we. If it was said : Excessive sex will shorten your life by a few years. I would say lets get it on. A good trade off as far as I am concerned.Same with beer. So be it. I would rather die happy than walking around being a sour puss. Good luck my friend . Enjoy in moderation.

Question: How can I consume the right amount of calories with being vegan? I eat exactly how I ate before I became a vegan but am losing weight that I don't want to lose and taking in a low amount of calories while doing so. I belief this is because of the suplementary foods that I eat are less calories than real meat and real milk and such. I'm only taking in 800 calories a day. What kind of foods can I eat that are healthy but calorie filled to consume around 1400 calories a day?

Answer: You are limiting yourself too much. All vegans and vegetarians learn that variety is key to eating a full day's worth of calories and nutrition. To up your calorie intake, nuts, nut butters, and seeds are high in fat and calories. Eat hearty whole grain bread. Avocados are deliiciouussss and they have a lot of healthy fat and calories too. Don't delay-- you need to at least double the amount of calories your eating right now because right now your not eating enough! Its not easy making the transition to being a vegan because we have to be more conscientious than everyone else. But I know you can do it. Keep track of your calories during the day for a couple of weeks and never go to bed hungry. Ask advice from some experienced vegans and vegetarians, like on websites and at your local food co-ops. Good luck :)

Question: How do i consume powdered herbs to get the benefits? I have powdered cordyceps and powdered Ho Shou Wu. They are extracts. What do i do with them? How do i consume them?

Answer: It depends of the herb you want to use. Most herbs have culinary uses. You can either prepare a tea or add it to soups/dishes. For example from the powder of ginger/thyme/mint etc you could make herbal tea and use when cooking. Make garlic bread or garlic dip with garlic powder. Flax seed powder tastes the best when mixed with yogurt. The easiest and most effective is to prepare herb teas. Put 1 teaspoonful of powdered herb to cup, add boiling water and allow to steep for 5-10.

Question: How many calories should i consume to lose 10lbs in 3 months? Ok am 131lbs and i wanna be 121lbs and my height is 5'3.

Question: How many calories should I consume with running? I am about 15 pounds overweight, and I run 3-6 miles everyday. How many calories should I consume in order to have enough energy to run, but also lose the 15 pounds?

Answer: It depends how fast you are running and the intensity of the route. For example, let's say i run 6 miles today, but it took me 10 hours to do it. Obviously, i didn't reach my target heart rate and thus, I did not achieve the maximized fat burning process. I wouldn't worry so much on calories, but rather what you are eating. With any cardio, you want to sustain your stamina. So eat high fiber carbs, like whole grain bread or brown rice. Add a banana for some natural sugar and potassium. Eat lean proteins like eggs, tofu, fish and chicken to add lean muscle. Combine this with consistent regular exercise, you will see the pounds come off. Just avoid empty calories such as soda, candy, etc. Good luck.

Question: How many calories should I consume per day? I want to lose a minimum of 5 pounds in around 4 weeks, preferably a bit more.. 1.5 a week would be nice. I curretly weigh 130lbs and I'm 5ft5, how many calories should I consume per day on recommendation alongside two workouts a week, where I burn 1900kcal overall, to lose weight?

Answer: Go to one of the BMI calculators on-line that is free but, instead of putting in your current weight, put in your desired weight and that will give you a daily caloric intake. Also there are websites that will give you a desired calorie intake. If I were you, I would drop to 1200 cal per day and when you are losing weight and then you plateau, increase your daily calories by 100... thats right.. increase and then you will start to lose again.
