I take fish oil to lower cholesterol/BP and glucosamine for my joints. What if any mercury can be found in these? Some articles say supplements safer than the actual fish.
Answer:
There are no standards for supplements and the industry is not monitored. I personally had bad experience with fish oil supplements, though not mercury related. I avoid all supplements and try to get fresh foods and proper nutrition
depending on which kind of fish oil it is. you are only suppost to take in like, 3-5 servings of them.
If a fish has swallowed a thermometer then you would get mercury poisoning. Check the ingredients for Mercury or Mr_the scientific Symbol

Is there a cure or tips on making hypoglycemia better?
Im 15, and im very hypoglycemic. I do lots of sports and running. i eat well, im in good shape, im small, petite, very thin. (not anorexic or anything!) and i eat well. I eat proteins and carbs before a game or track meet, and i make sure i will be ok. i dont have diabeties. i am just wondering if there is a cure to hypoglycemia, or if anyone knows how to make this even better, cuz even after i eat alot, and well before i run, i still loose my breath, and my eyes kinda wonder off. i get dizzy, and i have almost encounterd death with this before last year in PE. plz help!! :D thanx!!
Answer:
The cure for Hypoglycemia is NOT to have sugar but to avoid it. Hypoglycemics react badly to sugar causing their blood sugar to plummet. Avoid sugar, candy, chocolate, fruits white bread and flour and basically junk food- potatoe chips.Eat healthy meats, whole grains, brown bread, whole grain pasta and vegetables and eat regularly.There is no 'cure' diet is the only way.
the cure for hypoglycemia is to have sugar. Orange juice is a good thing to have if you are feeling hypoglycemic. You could also carry around some hard candies and have them when you are feeling that way.
You should exercise vigorously and have one of your diabetic friends (there are lots of them) take you blood glucose right after the exercise to be sure it really is low sugar. If so, you should see your M.D. and find out why. It is not normal...and you know it.Don't eat a lot. It makes you fat, more likely to get diabetes. Then you really will have sugar problems.You lose your breath? Heart problem? Lung problem.?.maybe asthma?See your M.D. Find out if you have what you think you have, or something else.

Is there a cure for tuberculosis?????
My best friends sister has tuberculosis and i was wondering if it is deadly, curable or can be treated.thanks everybody for your help this means so much to me and my friend.lots of love to everyone
Answer:
Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection that is most often found in the lungs (pulmonary TB) but can spread to other parts of the body (extrapulmonary TB). TB in the lungs is easily spread to other people through coughing or laughing. Treatment is often successful, though the process is long. Treatment time averages between 6 and 9 months. Tuberculosis is either latent (dormant) or active.Latent TB means that you have the TB-causing bacteria in your body, but you cannot spread the disease to others. However, you can still develop active TB. Active TB means the infection is spreading in your body and, if your lungs are infected, you can spread the disease to others. What causes tuberculosis?
Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, slow-growing bacteria that thrive in areas of the body that are rich in blood and oxygen, such as the lungs.How is TB treated?
Doctors generally use a combination of 4 antibiotics to treat active TB, whether it occurs in the lungs or elsewhere. Medications for active TB must be taken for at least 6 months. Almost all people who take their medications as directed are cured. If tests continue to show positive results, treatment is extended for 8 to 9 months.One antibiotic taken for 9 months is the usual treatment for latent TB. This prevents the infection from becoming active and reduces the risk of complications.If you miss doses of medication or you stop treatment too soon, your treatment may go on longer or you may have to start over. This can also cause the infection to get worse or lead to antibiotic-resistant infections that are much harder to treat.A health professional may have to watch you take your medications. This may mean daily visits to a doctor's office or public health facility, or you may have home visits. A cure for TB requires you to take all doses of the antibiotics. Direct observational treatment ensures that people follow medication instructions, which is helpful because of the long treatment course for TB. Cure rates for TB have greatly improved because of this treatment practice. If active TB is not treated, it can damage the lungs or other organs and can possibly cause death.Click below link for more information.

Most TB is curable. It is a bacterial infection and treated with antibiotics. You may need to be on medication for a long period of time (up to a year).
There are several different strains of TB and cultures will be performed to determine the type and the best antibiotic to treat it.
If it is very long standing systemic (throughout the body) TB a cure is much less likely.
There is a cure for tuberculosis. The drugs are: Isoniazid, Rifampicin, Pyrazinamide and depending on how resistant the bacteria are, other doctors may add ethambutol and streptomycin into the regimen. But basically, the first 3 drugs are used initially. The treatment lasts for about 6-12 months depending on how severe her condition is. For the correct dosage, ur friend's sister must go see a doctor for the prescription.
Yes, it is usually curable, but can be deadly if it is not properly treated.Proper treatment usually means using up to three or four different antibiotic drugs at the same time. The duration of treatment varies but is usually at least six months. It is very important that your friend sticks closely to the treatment regime her doctor has prescribed. If her TB is only partly trteated, then this can give rise to forms of the infection that are resistant to some or many of the anti-TB drugs.

Is there a cure for stretch marks?
Can they be cured completely? Natural creams? Lotions? Aloe vera?
Answer:
A cure? I don't think so. But prevention...or trying to prevent them, you can use cocoa butter.After you loose the excess weight the stretch marks loose the redness and go back to a natural color, but not exactly the same skin tone. The best thing right now it just to exercise and loose the excess weight.Who knows, maybe in a few years there could be a surgery to get rid of them. But none that I could find, sorry.
IDK i have them and i'm only 13 and i'm not over wieght
Cocoa butter is good for that. In general, just make sure it gets a lot of moisture.StriVectin also works but that's a bit more expensive and not natural, I don't think.
i know there's creams to make them less noticeable but thats it. idk anything else
Try using cocoa butter. Its effectiveness relies on the age and severity of the stretch marks, however. But rub it on them every day to help the skin.
band aids.
There is no cure for stretch marks but surgery. Lotions and ointments can help speed up the fading, but they will always be there.
Sorry
Stretch mark is not a disease.
hmm, my mom has a cream for this!
she found it at walgreens :]
not sure if that helps much, but just go and ask someone there!
i totally wish. my guess would be surgery.
There is no "cure" for them, but I have heard that cocoa butter helps them to fade.
Yes. because i know for sure they have creams and lotions for women who were pregnant that helps get rid of their strech marks.
There are no cures but putting pure vitamin E oil on them will help reduce them.
Stretch marks happen because your body stretches the skin holding your meat or guts or fat in. If you really don't want stretch marks and loose skin, then you should just get fat again.
Coco butter is the best thing to put on them to make them go away. You can buy it in your local drug-stores. :)
there is no cure for stretch marks but i suggest for you to buy MEDERMA, it can help make it appear softer, smoother and less noticeable. it is proven to improve the color, texture and overall appearance. you can find this at your local pharmacy..
maderma?it was on a commercial.:]]
laser treatment
Try straight vitamin E oil, apply it directly to each stretch mark immediately after showering EVERY DAY. Keep your skin well hydrated by drinking plenty of water, applying skin lotion (unscented with vitamin E added) ALL OVER at least 3-4 times per week (if you do it right before you go to bed you will find you are better able to do it consistently and also it's very relaxing) and staying out of the sun and absolutely out of tanning beds. (Tanning won't make stretch marks worse but it will make them much more visible as the stretched skin will contrast more with the tanned skin! Tanning is horrible for your skin anyway!) If you do these things consistently you will notice improvement in about 12 weeks tops. If you stick wiith it you will completely get rid of at least half of your stretch marks in about 6 months and you will hardly notice those that remain. After 3-6 months (when you notice marked improvement) discontinue applying the straight vitamin E oil and just put on unscented body lotion with Vitamin E added every time you get out of the shower or bath. It works best if you apply while your skin is still damp (not dripping wet, just damp!) because this is when your skin most easily absorbs the lotion. (You should continue applying lotion all over 3-4 eves per week just before bed) If you stick with this skin care regimen for good you will notice a profound improvement in the overall appearance and condition of your skin in one year tops. If you stick with it beyond that you will have soft, supple, elastic skin that will not wrinkle nearly as dramatically or nearly as much as it would otherwise. You will not get as many papercuts or bruises as well-hydrated, elastic skin resists trauma much better than dry or uncared-for skin. I thought the vitamin E thing was a load of crap until I got burned badly on my face and neck and tried it to get rid of the moderate scarring I was left with after my burns had healed. I still have some very minimal scarring on my neck and the scars that were on my face are all but gone. I have to look very closely to see them at all even when I have no makeup on. It worked better than I ever thought possible so I tried in on the stretch marks I got when I had my youngest son 16 years ago and it worked so well I couldn't believe it. I strongly urge you to try it. It does take some time and patience and you have to do it consistently over a long period of time but it is absolutely worth it. Vitamin E is available at all drug stores, most grocery stores as well as WalMart and Sam's Clubs. I reccomend buying it in bulk at a Sam's Club or WalMart because you're going to use A LOT of it and the dinky little bottles of Vitamin E you'll find at drug and grocery stores won't last you very long and will cost about 3 times as much as they will at a WalMart , Sams or Costco.

Is there a cure for sinusitis?
There seems to be no shortage of quack remedies and other snake oil...
Answer:
Try to eliminate dairy products from your diet for a month or two, you can then reintroduce then slowly.
Steam is a great soother for the pain. I swim a lot, so use the steam room regularly, but one of those facial saunas works, or just a bowl of boiling water and a towel will do. There are products, like eucalyptus oil you can put into the steam, but they aren't necessary.
The doctor can provide you with nasal sprays, usually steroids, also surgery but I would avoid this and try the basic methods first.
It has certainly helped me.
thats nasal isnt it??
if really bad they burn something up your nose to releive it...my brother in law had that done not so long ago and its now mad him sound like his talking through his nose badly..i cant understand him half the time..poor sod
i had to see a Specialist for my sinus and he told me i needed surgery,but i was such a high risk there was nothing else he could do about it.
I suffer from chronic sinus pain (don't really get blocked up, just bad headaches). One thing that me and my mum have both found to help is cutting down on dairy products.
have a hopi ear candle treatment done only costs 15-20 pound and is really relaxing and has good results for ear and sinus problems
There is no indefinite cure for sinusitis and it may always return. There are however various remedies that can help treat the condition, many of which however have side effects, such as antihistamines that can make you drowsy.So far the best result i have obtained, was when i used a homeopathic treatment for my congested and infected sinuses.
that's because there really isn't a cure, I take Zyrtec every day

Is there a cure for oral herpes?
Answer:
Its incurable. Topical aciclovir can treat the symptoms whenever it flares.
nope. Almost everyone's got it, except for those few lucky people. You can try herpecin to make it go away faster, and if you have them constantly a doctor can put you on an antiviral (like the ones they use for genital herpes), but there is no cure!
Ya,Read the book : Miracle cures they don't tell you about: FDA won't let you purchase this i could go get the book to tell you what it is but im lazy. im answering any question im seeing right now so ya...
Sorry, not yet. However, there are creams and stuff that make them less painful and less noticable.
i've heard there is and aciclovir vacine, but where to get it...?
No, there is no cure for any kind of herpes. There are medications that can help prevent cold sores and herpes outbreaks, but they are not cures. Some medications require a prescription while others you can find at your local drug store like Abreva.
no cure for any type of herpes just treatments to shorten outbreaks and cause less people from gettin it from you
No but ask your doctor for acyclavir and they go away before they staet.You take 2 a day for 5 days when you have an outbreak.
Is there a cure for nystagmus? or some kind of treatment?
i have constant nystagmus and double vision...i need help
Answer:
You should consult a qualified opthalmologist for an eye test - don't forget to tell them about any prescription or over-the-counter medicines you may be taking, as nystagmus is a common side-effect of some drugs.
I think if you go to an opthalmolologist, and have your eyes checked, they could give you the appropriate corrective glasses :)
No, there is no cure for nystagmus that I know of. I have congenital nystagmus. There is treatment by wearing specially designed glasses (don't worry they don't look different, the lenses are different), I have these.
Hope this helps! Ask your eye doctor!
