Question 1

very good evening doctors. are any of you familiar with the golo plan for weight loss that focuses on insulin resistance and you take one golo pill with each meal on a daily basis? i wanted to find out if golo is medically safe and approved?

Accepted Answer

: Supplements like GOLO are not regulated or monitored by the FDA unless the products start injuring people. Their claims are not required to be accurate. The contents are not toxic, but their effectiveness is hard to gauge. Buy the product at your own risk, which may just be time and the cost.

Question 2

one apple daily, is it good?

Accepted Answer

Yes, of course!: But it won't keep the doctor away. However, the more fruits & vegetables that you eat each day, the better off you'll be. Many many studies have linked greater consumption of fruits & veggies to lower all-cause mortality. And don't forget to exercise regularly. That helps, too.

Question 3

good evening. i drink the contraseptivos 3 month, and today i drank one pill and like in 50 minutes i had diarea. should i drink another one?

Accepted Answer

Not a problem: Diarrhea should not affect the absorption and effectiveness of oral contraceptives.

Question 4

if i am exercising daily and have a good diet going, will it hurt me if i have one bad thing to eat probably per week? (a burger, steak, slice of pizza, etc.?

Accepted Answer

: Congratulations on your wise lifestyle choices. If you remain height-weight proportionate (normal body mass index, BMI) and remain in good physical condition, an occasional pizza, steak, hot fudge sundae etc will do little or no harm. Indeed, such indulgences can contribute to happiness and life satisfaction, which also enhance longevity. Everyone dies, but you'll have a good run on the way there.

Question 5

i used to take cialis 20mg but i opted for the daily 2.5mg one pill currently. if the daily of 2.5mg doesnt work can i increase the daily dosage to 5mg? or if i don't take it daily and increase it to a safe dosage (10mg - 20mg) will that be okay?

Accepted Answer

: Yes. But you are only 27yrs. old  you should not be normally taking Cialis  unless there is a reason. Please take it under care of an MD

Question 6

can i take one pill of zinic on the daily basis ?

Accepted Answer

You can: Watch out for gastrointestinal upset as this can happen with zinc supplementation.

Question 7

i do take 1 capsule nac on a daily basis.  is it
a good thing and what are the advantages of taking nac?

Accepted Answer

Maybe/not: Supplements like this benefit from federal law that excludes them from  monitoring/control by the FDA unless they harm/kill people. They can make any claim they wish &amp; never need to provide any proof &amp; consumer products may/not contain what they say. Since they have been around for some time &amp; readily available chances that expensive quality research will be done is unlikely. You are on your own.
