------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i did the cabbage diet, the original version from Poland, and i lost 7 pounds in 6 days. it's an unhealthy diet since you don't eat carbs, but you should only do it for 1 week at a time. And most people say its impossible to keep the weight off, but I prove them wrong.
advice
I am thirteen and just started giving advice here. Well now I have a question. I am addicted to cofee. I really like it and drink it with my Memaw. Is it bad for me to have it?
It is bad for young teenagers to drink coffee, it stunts your growth and contains a drug called caffeine that you're probably familiar with.
"Is coffee bad for you?
Question: When I told my parents and one of my good friends I had drank coffee that morning, they got on my case about drinking it. I never thought it had been a bad thing besides staining my teeth. I drinking the occasional frappachino since as long as I can remember. My drinking is not habitual at all. I was wondering, is coffee really that bad, that they feel they need to get on my case about it? I feel my parents are being a bit hypocritical since they drink coffee regularily as well.
Answer: Whether or not coffee (caffeine) is bad for you depends on whether how it affects you and whether you have other problems that make it inadvisable to consume it. Caffeine is known to cause the "jitters" (shaking) if you have enough of it. Some people are sensitive enough to it that even an early morning cup of coffee can make them jittery in the afternoon and keep them wide awake when they go to bed. Of course, caffeine has been used by college students forever to keep them alert when they need to study on little sleep. That's not a health problem as long as it's not done night after night for an indefinite period of time. Loss of sleep can reduce your immune response and make you susceptible to infection. People with stomach or esophagus problems such as ulcers or inflammation should probably avoid coffee -- even the decaffeinated variety can exacerbate the GI tract because of the acid it contains. Caffeine can make your heart race, but if it's within normal limits (not exceeding 100 beats per minute unless you're exercising), then that's not a problem. Caffeine does not seem to increase blood pressure except in people who already have high blood pressure. Caffeine should probably not be used except in small amounts, when a woman is pregnant. Follow the doctor's advice in such cases. If caffeine doesn't cause or exacerbate any of the problems I've discussed, then there really isn't much of a case for being concerned about using it. Researchers have long tried to pin something on caffeine -- high blood pressure and other signs of heart disease and a variety of cancers. Those endeavors have not been successful. So if you like your daily frappacino, then go for it.
