A pulmonologist for my teenage daughter told me that fried food is one of the worse foods for asthmatics.  This doctor was in one of the best pediatric hospitals on the east coast.\nYou may be allergic to something in the coating on the food, or you could have a very mild asthma-like reaction.\nDon't eat it.

7. i mean it's not food. it's snow. but then again there are some ppl who find clean snow and make "snow cream" by adding vanilla and sugar or something. i mean, why not just get normal icecream from the store? i don't think he can get a disease as long as it's clean. but really if you live in the city, and it's really polluted, their air alone can contaminate anything falling from the sky. i would make him stop eating it unless it's totally clean. the most that can happen is he'd prob get sick and get diarrhea from bacteria

Cause pork has been notoriously bad for people in the past.  Peanut butter doesn't taste good on anything but pork.  And dogs are too cool for them.  They are usually mans best friend, but for some reason the dogs won't be their friends.

First teh AHA primarily deals with heart disease.  You may be refering to the American Lung Association, which deals w/ lung ca.  I work in the largest and perhaps best cancer hospital in the world, and do research on cancer (but not lung).  I think everyone should look at the evidence about what causes lung cancer.  Sure, everyone knows a story about such and so smoked their whole life and didn't get ca.  However, smoking definately promotes lung ca, there is so much evidence for this.  Further, lung ca has increased recently, in correlation with worsening air pollution.  Essentially all you can say is, well, I'll smoke and if i get lung ca, so be it.  But know that your chances for getting ca soares, something like 30 fold above non-smokers.  And lung ca is very very difficult to treat, because it presents everywhere, and it's refractory to treatment.  But you shouldn't feel like health professionals are telling you what you can and can't do.  But because of research we know the mechanisms that increase susceptibility to lung ca, and smoking is the major one.

Very. I cannot understand people who knowingly put junk into their bodies. Our family has been free of trans fat for almost four years. We also limit sugar, high fructose corn syrup, sodium nitrites and msg. I make home cooked meals and snacks. I exercise daily and I do yoga for my body and for my spirit. We also do not take any kind of medicine unless absolutely necessary.

Your body is craving the "energy" that carbohydrates gives us.There are other alternatives from the carbs.Try snacking on apple slices with 1 T of fat free peanutbutter or cut up some celery,broccoli,carrots so they can be on hand when you are having those attacks.Don't drink soda as it is empty calories plus the glucose(sugar ) adds up to extra pounds.It is hard to advoid tempations such as cookies,cakes,pies..(I have a sweet tooth myself) My doctor told me I have to watch my insulin levels as I am not breaking the carbs so I am on a high protein low carb diet.I would recommend getting some books such as south beach,zone or a low carb cookbook that you can make wonderful recipies out of and hopefully this will cure your desire for carbs.

Wish I could help. But am not sure on how much longer she can live. Sounds pretty bad though. Pneaumonia with emphysema is very dangerous. Each ALONE is dangerous. I wish I could help you. Hope for her to get to doing better soon.

I thought everything was supposed to taste like chicken?\n\nHas she had chicken recently, if so, did the chicken taste like dirt?\n\nIf she is pregnant, then it is a mineral deficiency

I have found some RAW, ORGANIC, LIVE, WHOLE FOOD in powder form.  I have had allergies but they went away when I began taking this stuff made of totally organic vegetables, fruits and other ingredients.  Send me an email privately and I will tell you more if you wish.  \n\nzhebee

A cough is a symptom, not a disease. It can't cause lung cancer.

*** dad always used to tell me "eat a piece of bread" if you had a fishbone or anything stuck in your throat...just a dry piece of bread.  not sure i ever did it...i hated bread...but it's worth a shot...i spose.

Well, I agree that there's a lot of hysteria surrounding smoking.  But a lot of it comes from smoking being out of fashion.  And let's not forget--most smokers WON'T die of lung cancer.  They'll die of other diseases only linked to smoking but not actually caused by them.\n\nBut I'm not sure I agree with you about the fast food.  I've seen several groups try to sue fast food chains and, don't forget, the FDA just recently mandated new food labeling laws.\n\nBut, yes, I also agree that in the hysteria, nutrition is often overlooked.  And just look at how obesity is linked to so many diseases, many types of cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, the list just goes on and on.\n\nI'm not sure I answered your questions but thanks for asking them.  They'll give a lot of people something very important to think about.  Best Wishes.
