.... to think about before. My job, car and money cause some stress in my life, but without them I couldn’t do the things I wanted and would be solely dependent on my parents. Under distress, the non-productive stress, I have used smoking and alcohol because there is no advantage from doing either, but they still appear in my life and cause stressful situations that involve things like peer pressure. The demerit card and the cars running into each other are things that have gotten me into trouble caused stress in my life. The fights that I have been in, both verbally and physically, have left me in stress because I have spent so much of my t .....

.... a tendency to be more gentle on the body and safer than conventional medicines. Herbs are usually "more dillute, slower acting and their side effects are usually less severe"(Flint np). Since herbs do tend to be more dillute, it decreases the risk of the more serious side effects that come along with the stonger drugs. Antibiotics, as a drug, may do more to the body than just get rid of the bacteria or virus. That is why Ann Beemer, a Pierre, S.D., sophomore, said "she felt good about taking zinc and Echinacea tablets when she had a cold." She felt they were more gentle than over the counter medicines (Gullickson np). People that ha .....

.... into oxygen (which can be given off when you exhale). A toxin like hydrogen peroxide must be broken down because if it is kept in the body for too long it can react with cell walls and damage them or break them down. The variables that affect the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide are: 1. The temperature of the liver 2. The surface area of the liver 3. The pH of the hydrogen peroxide 4. The concentration of the enzymes The two variables I am going to look at are temperature and surface area. Hypothesis: I think that when we test the surface area the bigger the surface area the quicker the reaction will be. Th .....

.... noted by Ewald (1) was in circumstances where contraction of the pathogen did not guarantee death to the host. Most pathogens we are familiar with today fall into the latter category. In this case, virulence of the pathogen can, and is, measured by mortality rates. Here, more virulent strains kill more hosts. If mortality rates are very low or not present at all, greater virulence can be expressed as causing more symptoms of illness. One such pathogen is Vibrio cholerae, which causes the disease known as cholera. The subject of this paper will focus on the V. cholerae pathogen and the significance of its presence on Earth. I .....

.... that had died were born small for gestational age, the mothers of these infants were found to be smokers while they were pregnant. Secondly many of the infants were found to by lying face down at the time of their death. Another important issue that has been further investigated is that SIDS may be the result of the combinations of many syndromes. Such as: gastroesophageal reflux mixed with respiratory disease. #3 One of the newest ideas that researchers have suggested may be the cause of SIDS is “Vertebral Artery Compression Resulting from Head Movement�. This concept suggests that the rotation and extension of an infant’s .....

.... out in public. One woman said “When I went grocery shopping I would worry that people were watching me. Sometimes I would have to leave the store or I’d choose times to shop when there were not as many people there.� Problems such as this are the serious effects can have on you. It becomes serious when you have to start changing your lifestyle to avoid your anxieties. can take the form of many situations. For example. another woman overheard at her work that someone had a bad odor. The woman assumed it was her, and became paranoid about her odor. She was afraid to go out in public, an didn’t let her husband go either. Sh .....

.... Africa looking for these viruses. After digging up virtually every piece of land in Central Africa, Gene Johnson wound up without a single case or report of a virus. A man by the name of Charles Monet and a young boy referred to in this book as Peter Cardinal both contracted the same level 4 hot virus. There is only one connection between Charles and Peter. "The paths of Charles Monet and Peter Cardinal had crossed at only one place on earth, and that was inside Kitum Cave." (pg. 140 - Cardinal). Kitum Cave is where the virus is expected to be living or where the history of the Ebola virus lays. So Kitum Cave is where the search for .....

.... not required by the FDA to have premarket approval or safety testing, as are necessary for new drugs and food additives. For example, prior to release, a new drug must obtain FDA drug approval through an extensive process that involves preclinical testing on animals, three phases of investigational new drug testing, a new drug application review, and postmarketing surveillance research. Conversely, product testing is not required for any supplement with ingredients that have been present in the food supply prior to October 15, 1994, or that have a history of use or other safety evidence in labeled conditions. Many supplements were not requi .....

.... 33% of Americans will eventually get cancer. In the United States skin cancer is the most dominating in both men and women, followed by prostate cancer in men and breast cancer in women. Yet lung cancer causes the most deaths in men and women. Leukemia, or cancer of the blood, is the most common type in children. An increasing incidence has been clearly observable over the past few decades, due in part to improved cancer screening programs, and also to the increasing number of older persons in the population, and also to the large number of tabacco smokers--particularly in women. Some researchers have estimated that if Americans stopp .....
