Drug
Side Effects
We
all know that certain cold medications, antihistamines and even cough
syrups
can make you drowsy. Bat you may not have known that the list of
potential
energy sappers features many other familiar drugs that can cause
drowsiness
in some people. These include some diuretics and certain blood-presure
medications. If you often feel tired or run-down, ask your doctor or
your
pharmacist whether the medication you are taking might be the cause and
what alternatives may be available.
The human
body continually detoxifies itself, getting rid of the poisons that
assault
it from both without and within. This book explains what toxins are,
why
plants and animals produce them, and how the body resolves its
"internal
trash-removal problem."
Health
Pages - Health Tips & Info
Healthy
living includes being active, feeling good about yourself and eating
properly.
Road to GOOD Health is a very INDIVIDUAL one. Willingness
to keep looking until you find something that works for you is
very
important, because what works for one person may be a complete turnoff
for another. Once you've discovered what suits you, it doesn't take
long
to develop a passion for it. It doesn't take much to start living a
healthier
life.
Blood
pressure that is too high is known as arterial hypertension. Blood
pressure
that is too low is known as hypotension.
Blood Pressure
If you
often feel exhausted for no reason or become woozy after standing for
long
periods, feel dizzy while taking a nice hot shower, experience the
nausea
or lightheadedness, have a physician evaluate your blood pressure.
Any
level of blood pressure puts mechanical stress on the arterial walls.
The
higher the pressure, the more stress that is present. At branch points
in blood vessels, this stress becomes a shearing force, capable of
injuring
the tender lining of the blood vessels, the endothelium. Elevated
shearing
force on the endothelium, along with other factors (nutritional,
inflammatory,
toxic) may contribute to the development of atherosclerosis.
Dehydration
Make
sure you drink eight to ten glasses of water a day, more if you
exercise
heavily. Don't wait until you feel thirsty. Once you feel thirsty,
you've
already begun to lose a significant amount of fluid. As your fluid
level
decreases, you'll start to notice a decline in physical performance.
