The
Definitive Answer To 20 Of Your Biggest Health
Questions
Does olive oil prevent heart
disease?
Short answer: Yes
The health benefits
of olive oil come from the presence of polyphenols,
antioxidants
That
reduce the risk of heart diseases and cancers.
But to get
these healthy compounds, consumers should buy
good-quality, fresh "extra-virgin" olive oil, which has
the highest polyphenol content. Most commercially
available olive oils have low
levels of polyphenols associated with poor
harvesting methods, improper storage, and heavy
processing.
These colorful syrups
typically contain doses of codeine and dextromethorphan
that are too small to be effective.
Only cough
suppressants that contain older antihistamines seem to
relieve coughs.
That includes brompheniramine,
an active ingredient in Dimetapp.
Do sugary soft drinks lead to
diabetes?  Short answer: Yes
The majority of
health research is stacked
against sugar-sweetened soda. A large 2004
study in the
Journal of the American Medical Association found that
women who drank one or more sugary drinks per day
increased their risk of developing type 2 diabetes by
83% compared to those who consumed less than one of
these beverages per month.
Do I
need sunscreen with more than 30 SPF?
 Short answer: No
Sunscreens with an
SPF (sun protection factor) of 30 block about 97% of
ultraviolet rays,
While sunscreens with an SPF
of higher than 30 block 97%-98%.
It's more important that you
choose "broad-spectrum" sunscreen, meaning it protects
against both UVB and UVA rays.
Found that all previous
research "failed to identify a consistent relationship
between the consumption of MSG
And the constellation of
symptoms that comprise the syndrome," including
headaches and asthma attacks.
The misconception
spawned from several poorly-done small studies in the
1960s that seemed
to connect
MSG with a variety of maladies that people experienced
after eating at Chinese restaurants.
Do
nuts make you fat?  Short answer: No
As much as 75% of a
nut is fat. But eating fat doesn't necessarily make you
fat.
The bigger factor leading to
weight gain is portion-size.
Luckily, nuts are loaded with
healthy fats that keep you full. They're also a good
source of protein and fiber.
One study even found
that whole
almonds have 20% less calories than previously thought
because
A lot of the fat is excreted
from the body.
Is
walking as effective as running?  Short answer: Yes
Studies have shown
that how long you exercise — and thus how many calories
you burn — is more important
Than how hard you exercise.
Running is a more efficient form of exercise, but not
necessarily better for you.
A six-year study published in the journal
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology in
April found that walking at a moderate pace and running
produced similar health benefits, so long as the same
amount of energy was expended.
Is drinking fruit juice as good
for you as eating fruit?  Short answer: No
Calorie for calorie,
whole fruit provides more nutritional benefits than
drinking the pure juice of that fruit.
That's because when you
liquefy fruit, stripping away the peel and dumping the
pulp, many ingredients like
Fiber, calcium, vitamin C, and
other antioxidants are lost.
For comparison, a
five-ounce glass of orange juice that contains 69
calories has .3 grams of dietary fiber and 16 milligrams
of calcium, whereas an orange with the same number of
calories packs 3.1 grams of fiber and 60 milligrams of
calcium.
Are all wheat breads better for
you than white bread?  Short answer: No
Not all wheat breads
are created equal. Wheat breads that contain all parts
of the grain kernel,
Including the nutrient-rich
germ and fiber-dense bran, must be labeled "whole grain"
or "whole wheat."
Some wheat breads are just white
bread with a little bit of caramel coloring to make the
bread appear healthier,
According to Reader's Digest.
Can a hot tub make me
sick?  Short answer: Yes
Hot tubs — especially
ones in spas, hotels, and gyms — are perfect breeding
grounds for germs.
The water is not hot enough to
kill bacteria, but is just the right temperature to make
microbes grow even faster.
Even though hot tubs are
treated with chlorine, the heat causes the disinfectant
to break down faster
than it would in regular
pools.
The most common hot tub infection is
pseudomonas folliculitis, which causes red, itchy bumps.
A more dangerous side-effect
of soaking in a dirty Jacuzzi is a form of pneumonia
known as Legionnaire's disease.
The preliminary report was
later
debunked.
More recently, health studies have swung in favor of
the caffeinated beverage.
Do eggs raise cholesterol
levels?  Short answer: No
Although egg yolks are
a major source of cholesterol — a waxy substance that
resembles fat — researchers have learned that saturated
fat has more of an impact on cholesterol in your blood
than eating foods that contain cholesterol.
"Healthy
individuals with normal blood cholesterol levels should
now feel free to enjoy foods like eggs in their diet
every day," the lead researcher from a 25-year University
of Arizona study on cholesterol concluded.
Can
you drink too much water?  Short answer: Yes
It is very rare for
someone to die from drinking too much water, but it can
happen.
Overhydrating is most common among elite
athletes. Drinking an excess of water, called water
intoxication, dilutes the concentration of sodium in the
blood leading to a condition known as hyponatremia.
The symptoms of hyponatremia
can range from nausea and confusion to seizures and even
death in severe cases.
To avoid this, drink fluids
with electrolytes during extreme exercise events.
Can yogurt
ease digestive problems?  Short answer: Yes
Our digestive tract
is filled with microorganisms — some good and some bad.
Yogurt
contains beneficial bacteria, generically called
probiotics, that helps maintain a healthy balance.
Probiotics can relieve several
gastrointestinal problems, including constipation and
diarrhea. Certain brands of yogurts, like
Activa by
Dannon, are
marketed exclusively to treat tummy issues.
Do
whitening toothpastes whiten teeth more than regular
toothpastes?  Short answer: No
Whitening toothpastes
usually contain peroxides and other strong abrasives
that might make
your teeth appear whiter by
removing stains. Unlike at-home whitening strips and
gels that contain bleach,
these toothpastes do not
actually change the color of your teeth.
Is it
safe to microwave food in plastic containers?
 Short answer: Yes
But the plastic
container should display the words "microwave safe."
This means that the Food and Drug Administration has
tested
the container
to make sure no chemicals used to make the plastic leech
into foods during microwaving.
If chemicals do seep out into
food, the amounts are tiny and not dangerous to our
health.
As a general guideline, plastic grocery bags
as well as most plastic tubs that hold margarine,
yogurt, cream cheese,
and condiments are not
microwave safe.
Can
watching TV ruin your eyesight?  Short answer: No
Watching TV will not
destroy your rods and cones as the outdated myth
suggests. Before the 1950s,
Modern TVs have special
shielding that blocks these harmful emissions.
Is
red wine better for you than white wine?
 Short answer: Yes
Red wine contains
much more resveratrol than white wine, an antioxidant
found in the skin of grapes
Is
bottled water better for you than tap water?
 Short answer: No Bottled water is no safer or
purer than tap water, although it is substantially more
expensive.
A recent study by Glasgow University in
the U.K. found that bottled water is actually
While public water supplies
are tested for contaminants every day, makers of bottled
water are only required
to test for specific
contaminants every week, month, or year.
