A member asked:
My mom has trouble controlling her bladder, she drinks lots of sunkist soda and eats lots of ruffles chips. she's not overweight. what might be wrong?

Sugar and salt: Your mom may not manifest medical issues yet but her poor diet will take its toll. Even with a good diet excess salt and sugar will create poor health. She needs to stop the soda and chips, get back to basics then get assessed for hypertension and diabetes if it continues.
