While having these foods every once in awhile isn’t a big deal health wise, it’s the salt that lurks in expected places that might be hurting you most. Many people don’t realize just how much sodium is in many of the foods they eat, and just what kind of negative effects it may be having on their bodies. The average adult shouldn’t consume more than 2400 mg of sodium a day, but many may be doing so quite unaware of how much salt is really in their food. Take canned soups for instance. Many are seemingly healthy, touting low calories and fat but masking an incredibly high amount of sodium (after all, they...

It turns out, however, that this age-old bias was due more to social factors rather than physiological truths. In fact, recent evidence suggests that women may be significantly more susceptible to addiction. And once addicted, women may have a much tougher time kicking whatever habit. Now, according to a recent Scientific American article, women are gaining–and with some substances–surpassing men in rates of experimentation and use.

The manual is revised every few years, and the latest edition is set to come out in 2013. Reuters reportedthat in the manual are new, more ambivalent diagnostic classifications such as "psychosis risk syndrome," "mild anxiety depression," and "temper dysregulation disorder." These supposedly "new" disorders are so vague and their symptoms so common that some fear the bounds of normality will be shrunk to the point that everyone can be classified as "crazy."

Making sure that our children stay clear of such drugs as marijuana and harder substances is relatively easy in the face of the latest craze–digital drugs. What are these so-called digital drugs, and how do they work? Time magazine reported on a trend called i-dosing, in which teens listen to audio files available on popular websites like YouTube.

But do you have what it takes to care for an elderly parent at home? Caring for the Alzheimer’s patient at home can be an arduous and all-consuming task, and you should consult a physician before attempting it. Depending on the severity and progression of the disease, your parent may even need routine in-home nursing care, especially if you must leave your home for work or other responsibilities. However, there are some good overall tips for people who have chosen at-home elder care for their parent. First, do everything you can to communicate what is happeni...

Becoming a paramedic involves passing your EMT exams and training yourself to become used to uncomfortable scenes.  This amount of training goes a long way in preparing you for a lifelong career in the health industry, whether you want to become a nurse or a doctor.&n...
