Question 1

can i eat raw lamb?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but why???: Haven't heard of any regulations against the eating of raw lamb, but why would one not cook his meat. Undercooked meat has bacteria, viruses, and parasites that are bad for people. One can enjoy a healthier lifestyle by cooking to death all those "germs", before eating.

Question 2

can i eat raw ginger daily?

Accepted Answer

Moderation: There is no contraindication to eating raw ginger, but too much of anything can be problematic.  Excessive ginger can cause gut upset, diarrhea, and other symptoms.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Not normal: I would get this checked out by your physician asap. You need at least a cardiac evaluation.

Question 4

is eating raw ginger good for you?

Accepted Answer

Not harmful: Raw ginger in moderate amounts is not harmful.  Can help with nausea and motion sickness....Serves as a palate cleanser after eating certain foods (souchi for example). As with anything moderation is better than overuse.

Question 5

what are the benefits of a raw diet?

Accepted Answer

Less calories: Raw takes longer time to eat, and slows you down, Im assuming mostly fruits and vegetables, so lower in calories as well, which is high in fiber and help in blood sugar control and weight loss. I don't suggest raw meat or fish due to parasites and bacteria. (especially in ground meat, chicken or turkey.
Good luck to you

Question 6

r.d.w=18.2% ,whats meaning or caused?

Accepted Answer

Nonspecific finding: An increased RDW indicates the presence of increased variability in red cell size. An increased RDW is commonly found when there is a nutritional deficiency (eg, iron, folate, (folic acid) and vitamin B12), resulting in variability in red cell endowment and, therefore, size. However, the finding of an increased RDW is not specific for any one abnormality. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Question 7

how do you teach kids to ride a bike?

Accepted Answer

Safety first: Insist upon a helmet each time your child is on the bike-with or without training wheels.  Bikes that are too small are usually the easiest, when sitting on the seat the feet should easily reach the ground, with bent knees.  On a small grassy incline, have your child lift the feet and allow the bike to slowly roll down the hill.  Don't bother putting feet on the pedals until he's comfortable.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Back pain: Back pain causes can be from lumbar strain, disc disease, arthritis, occukt fracture

Question 10

are leafy greens healthier cooked or raw?

Accepted Answer

Raw: Leafy greens are best because cooking denatures the enzymes in the plants to some degree.  It is more difficult to digest them however, because cooking helps with that.  You might consider a raw salad and par-boil for other meals.  Peace and good health.
