Question by jessicalini: How is being overweight dangerous to my health.?
Hi,
I’m 5 foot 4 3/4 and almost 140 pounds and I’m not even 18 yet. I want to know exactly how this may harm my health, now and in the future, and how to motivate myself to get healthy by losing about 10 to 15 pounds. If anyone can help me, that would be a lot of help.
I’d also love to penpal with someone else looking to get healthy. It doesn’t matter how much weight you need to lose; I’d just love to talk to someone dedicated.

your not in a dangerous stage, however no one is safe. the same things that cause obesity also cause other complications such as heart disease and diabetes.
just make sure you are doing areobic exercises everyday. its best to just do a full body exercise for 30min a day to exercise your heart by increasing your heart rate through a prolonged exercise. these exercises include, biking, running, jogging, (waalking, for beginnners) swimmming, surfing, basically anything that keeps your heart at a higher speed for longer than 30min.
the exercise for your heart helps prevent alot of problems.
next eat right and in moderation. metabolism is important so eat less but more frequently. monitor the amount of sugars you are ingesting to prevent diabetes.
look at the number one killers in america and you will see most are related to being overweight. but honestly do not fear your current weight. its not too bad.

Question by Mr. Right: Is stinky sock and foot sniffing unhealthy?
I’ve seen people do this on the Web; the first thing that comes to mind: What damage is this doing to these people’s health? Could a person get sick, contract a disease, or die from the inhalation of another’s sock and foot odors?

Answer by Pat
I don’t think it would cause any damage.
Ever been in a boy’s locker room in schools? Pretty close to the same.

Ponsetti Technique for Club Foot
April 24, 2011 by Foot Health
Filed under Foot Problems
Clubfoot is not that uncommon in the newborn, occurring in about 1/1000 births. The Ponsetti method for clubfoot as the treatment approach is getting a lot more attention of late, probably because of large the amount for research that is being published recently on the approach. This research on outcomes for the Ponsetti technique for clubfoot is showing good and positive results. The approach involves manipulation and mobilisation of the foot and ankle in the infant to move the foot to a more corrected position followed by the application of a plaster cast to maintain that corrected position. This is then repeated at a number of weekly an interval for up to several months or until adequate correction is finally achieved. The method is that not suitable for the more rigid or less flexible types of clubfoot. Surgical correction is then indicated for these rigid clubfoot types and the ones that do not respond to this conservative technique.
