HOW TO SURVIVE YOUR DOCTOR: WALKING, WORMS, WRINKLES
Walking
Unlike people that run; people that walk often smile and conduct animated conversations. The whole issue of running versus walking raises the issue of how much exercise, at what intensity, for how long. The latest findings in terms of cardio protection have it that an hour of light exercise a day, such as walking or gardening is as good as moderate to more severe exercise. A person walking five miles burns the same amount of calories as a person running five miles. The distance merely takes twice as long to complete.
Worms
City dwellers rarely catch worms. They are an infestation of hunter gatherers or farming communities. By far the most common worm in urban society is the pinworm. Children catch them with great facility indicating their presence by nocturnal scratching of an itchy bottom. Identification of specific worm infestation necessitates faecal sampling. Microbiologists in laboratories examine the specimen for eggs, cysts and the parasites themselves.
Home Remedies
Most worms rapidly succumb when over the counter worm preparations are taken. Useful preparations include Vermox, Combantrim, and Early Bird. Early Bird is cleverly packaged in chocolate squares. Don't confuse them with Laxettes.
Wrinkles
Preventable wrinkles occur in relation to sleeping on the face and over exposure to ultraviolet rays. Vitamin A and its derivatives can counter the effects of solar induced aging. The effects take three or four months to become obvious.
Home Remedies
All men and women should apply a sun screen to the face habitually every morning. Women as a moisturizing cream, men as an after shave lotion. Apply Vitamin A and its derivatives at night and wash them off in the morning. In some people the Retinoids cause photo sensitivity.
