Is there any relation between nutrition and head growth?

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

I really need to know. Do people with bad nutrition and diet tend to have bigger head?How does nutrition effect head growth?
Thanks.

Um…no. The size of your head/skull is determined from birth. Your skull will never get bigger than it’s supposed to be (ie, once you stop growing). Therefore, it stands to reason that poor nutrition will not make your head bigger.

In fact, poor diet can have the opposite effect, since your bones will not be getting the nutrients they need to continue growing. If you have a serious nutrition deficiency, it’s possible that your skull will not grow to it’s maximum size.

what color kitchen appliances should i get?

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

what do you have?

i have an all white apartment. and i CANT put color on the walls and i’m wanting to put color in the room with appliances, plates…etc.

i’m afraid to do certain colors though because it may cost more, and i need to do this cheaply. what should i do?

Colored appliances go out of style very quickly. Stainless steel appliances are very nice and classy. I would get those with some bright color coordinated
towels
dish drainer (if you use one)
rugs
curtains
pictures
If your table is in the kitchen make sure that the linens and the chair pads fit in with your scheme as well.

Since Marion Jones had to give up her medals, shouldn’t all World Series juicers do the same?

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

If we’re going to do that to her it should be done across the board!
Cheating is cheating right?
The relay teams that Jones participated on had to return their medals too.
So, in that regards, a WS team should have to give it up as well right?
Explain how that’s different.

You bet they should give up their ill gotten prizes. how is it fair to the guys who played hard and got nothing.

If they are going to clean it up, clean it up.. if not.. start billing it like wrestling.. a drugged up sport.. if you want to watch, watch.. but don’t consider it a fair arena at all.

What a shame.

What is the difference between a nutrition and a dietetics degree?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

Hi, so it’s time for me to really think about what undergrad degree I’m going to work towards. But the university where I’m going cancelled their dietetics degree program (Faculty of Biochemistry) They do still have a Nutrition program. So, what I want to know is: Is there any significant difference between a nutrition or dietetics degree? Could I still become a dietition with a nutrition degree?

Almost anyone can call themselves a nutritionist and attempt to provide service without formal training, education and licensing. A dietitian, however, has completed several years of advanced college study to obtain at least a Bachelor’s degree and Dietetic Internship. This training, along with completion of the registration exam, is required for employment in hospitals and other health care facilities. The career opportunities and salary potential are far greater for Registered Dietitians.
Bottom line, you can become a dietitian with a nutrition degree after you get more education. A degree in nutrition alone won’t get you there.

What color appliances will work in my kitchen?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

In my kitchen I have oak cabinets and oak wood laminant flooring. I really want stainless steel appliances. Right now my counter tops are butcher block, but I don’t care what color they are, I just really like the looks of the stainless steel. My question is will the stainless steel work with the oak color and a basically western style decor? Also, what color countertops would you chose if this combination works?

I think stainless steel appliances will work with just about any cabinet type or color. Stainless steel is basically a neutral color. In general, countertop colors come in almost any color you can imagine. Most home centers/cabinet places have laminate samples that you can bring home to compare against your cabinets. Choose a color that you like, keeping in mind that neutral colors will help with the resale of your home. I tend to pick lighter beiges or grays with some sort of pattern to them. A pattern like a granite look or other stone looks nice, pulls in some other colors and crumbs show up less if you aren’t always wiping your counters down. My kitchen (brand new!) right now has a black/beige granite pattern with medium reddish oak cabinets and stainless appliances. I love the way it looks!

Does the Omega Juicers 8005 model have a defect? Does anyone already own this model?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

I want to buy this model, but 2 users on Epinions.com are reporting that the Omega 8005 has a defect where it grinds plastic particles into the juice. I guess if you run the machine without putting anything in for a couple minutes, according to the reviews, "the rotating auger grinds against the juicing insert actually scraping off trace amounts of the plastic." Can anyone dispel this? Thanks.

I have this juicer and love it. I’ve not personally encountered this little "glitch" they speak of BUT, here’s what I did to prevent it from happening. When brought it home, unpacked it, I poured a bit of olive oil onto a paper towel, wiped down the inside, and then washed it with hot and soapy water. The olive oil lubricates and coats without leaving a residue. It’s rather like "seasoning" a new skillet prior to using it. If you do not have olive oil, another mild thick oil will do the trick. I’d not recommend vegetable oil or a low-grade oil.

How important is nutrition to teens? And does the prospect of health problems later in life matter now?

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

Not many people know a lot about good nutrition. And I mean really know. Most teens aren’t even required to take a basic nutrition class in school. However, nutrition is the one thing in life that affects your whole life. Good or bad nutrition habits can affect your emotions, your your physical features including your skin, hair and bodyshape, and even how you treat others. Your nutrition habits will also have major effects on your health now and in the future. So how important is nutrition in your life?

Nutrition is hugely important in my life. Fresh fruit and veges and leane red meat. Lots of fish and turkey for protein. My body is a temple and I need to treat it right to keep my insides healthy. I also try to eat food witha high water content, water melons and so on. Fresh and natural is the key to a good inside. But if there is more I need to know please let me know.

I hope I answered you question You can tell how unhealthy you are by your bowel movements and its consitance( I know gross) but its true. As a 28 year old it is a high priority to keep in peak physical fitness. Although not a teen I still consider ymself as excited and energetic as a teen. Due to good nutrition of course:)
