Nutrition :: Can Too Much Fruit Or Vegetables Be TOO Much?

This is my first post here, im a 14 year old male, 175 pounds (and losing weight at a steady pace, i've been working out since i was fat and 210 pounds a few months ago), and about 6 feet tall (i play basketball) and i want to know if i eat a large amount of fruits or vegetables i can get unhealthy. i eat maybe about a stalk or two of celery, a handful of baby carrots, an apple or an orange, a pear, about an eighth of a watermelon, a couple strawberries (maybe), yogurt, sometimes a vine of grapes, some sweet peppers and a plum or peach every day or two, just as snacks. i very rarely eat sweets although i occasionally eat meat and cheese during meals, and some eggs or grain/oats/whatever cereal for breakfast. i don't really follow the 8 glasses of water a day, i just drink when im thirsty tbh. i workout about 4-6 days a week and play basketball, and i've been wanting to know if this may be too much food for one day, and if this can make me unhealthy or fat.

Diverticula Diet? Fruit, Vegetables, Cooked Only?

In the past, I have spent quite a lot of money getting advice from a private Nutritionist.  She advised me not to eat any raw fruit and vegetables but to eat them cooked only.  Also not to eat salad as lettuce in particular can take a while to pass through the digestive system.  Also she said that wheat is not a good form of fibre but Rye is better but Rye bread is usually heavy, more like a house brick.  Rye crackers are O.K. sometimes but won't make a good sandwich.

Yesterday, when I had a bad flare up, I thought that I have got to rethink my diet yet again.

I have been eating wholemeal bread but it seems to make me really bloated and uncomfortable.

I am going to start taking probiotics again but not sure which ones are best.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa :: Eliminate Nightshades (potato) Vegetables From Your Diet

I'm currently 23 and I've been suffering with HS since around 17 years old, which is as far as I can remember. I am a super potato lover. I'll eat anything that's made of potatoes. Sooner or later I started have flare ups and boils under my arm-pits. It hurts to walk and sometimes I just get random pains in my arms or legs. After going on a Paleo diet, the HS cleared up and my pains went away. So I started introducing things back into my diet such as whole wheat foods, dairy, etc. As soon as I got back on the potatoes, BOOM, more flare-ups. I went to the doctors, and whilst she diagnosed me HS she was completely stumped. Only gave me a prescription to a bottle of Hibiscrub which only made me feel clean. 

I recommend anyone who is suffering with this to eliminate nightshades from their diet and see how it works for you!

Sertraline :: Increase In Libido?

I can't be alone in this. I was terrified the opposite would happen but it's crazy I'm now horny all the time. It's actually amusing and I guess it's not a bad thing. I'm 6 weeks in now and I'm not sure sertraline has done much else for me. Life is still very much a struggle. My doctor says I should persist still (I didn't tell him about this side effect) I'm not convinced it's working for me though. Plus I'm single so it's not exactly making life more exciting anyway! I have to laugh - otherwise I'll probably cry!

Kidney Stones - Dramatic Increase During Pregnancy

Hi all! Im so happy i found this board, hopefully someone can answer some questions for me. Ive posted on a couple of other sites but no one was in the same situation and really couldn't answer my questions. Im 32 and I've had kidney stones on and off for the last 14 years. Usually id just get them once or twice a year but had 2 three year gaps of no new stones. Last November during my third pregnancy i was diagnosed with a stone that i was told was 2/3 of an inch. I passed fragments on a monthly basis and in jan of this year the stone had shrunk to around 1/3 of an inch. I continued to pass fragments on a monthly basis for the entire rest of my pregnancy which ended in mid may when i gave birth. In late june i wound up back in the er for kidney pain and had a ct scan which showed 'several" stones in my left kidney the largest being 8mm, one in the right kidney and a 3mm in the left ureter. Since then I've been passing stones on a weekly basis, I'm in pain almost everyday. I had an x-ray in early august showing 9 stones in my left kidney the largest @ 4mm plus one in the ureter, of course . Then a ct in late aug showed at least 7 stones from 1mm-7mm. So basically my left kidney hates me, and honestly I'm not all that fond of it either at this point. My urologist has referred me to a pm dr. So this brings me to my ?'s. Does anyone here see a pm dr for kidney stone pain and if so how well do they manage your pain? Also has anyone else had a dramatic increase in stone production like this before and how long did it continue? My urologist has told me he has no clue whats going on and other than back to back pregnancies nothing has changed in my life. My father has noticed an increase in stones also but not this sharply. He had his first stone in his late 20's and went about 5 years between occurrences at first but has had 5 stones this last year. Is this just something that occurs more frequently over time? Im at a loss, in pain and really getting scared that this isn't slowing down. Im also scared that this pm dr won't take my pain seriously and i really can't go on like this. Im fed up with the pain and constant infections and its really difficult caring for 3 children when I'm this unwell especially with my 2 youngest being under 18 mos.

Anal Sex / Play - Increase Risk For Cancer

My internal/GAS medicine physician, M.D. tells me the facts that to receive anal sex, anal play, anal toys frequently will greatly increase the risk for anal cancer. The most anal toys or sex toys make by plastic which will release a lot poison chemicals into rectum and lower part of the colon, which are the other factors causing cancers there. I trustee advice from M.D. who have more formal medical training than some of psychological doctors's opinions on anal sex, who do not have a formal medical training, no matter they hold PhD or not in psychology. My M.D. doctor's advice are exactly match with same opinions on anal sex related to anal cancer, posted and provided by another M.D. doctor who is specialized and medical educator on human being's sexual health for many years.
