Consumers generally include canned tuna in a balanced diet as an affordable, healthy alternative to beef, but many are unaware that tuna can also poison a balanced diet.

In your local supermarket or drugstore, the male condom selection can be very overwhelming. Super thin, ribbed, non-lubricated, twisted tip -- does it really make a difference, or are they just gimmicks to make you spend more of your hard-earned cash?

As a woman, I'm unaccustomed to sexual performance anxiety. Our problem has traditionally been the generation -- not the utilization -- of desire. Still, there are moments when, in the midst of our recommended daily landslide of feral passion, we get caught up in some mechanical dilemma. Example: After the rush of devotion that goes into good oral sex, should one crown the achievement with a kiss?
The pill makes good company on those days or nights when deadlines loom. Drowsiness and distractions evaporate.

Fourth-year College student Geoff Yenson, who works as a Starbucks barista part time, said he knows about the health effects of caffeine but continues to drink it anyway. "I have an addiction to caffeine, and I am aware of the dangers surrounding it, but I don't plan on stopping," Yenson said. The most common sources of caffeine include coffee, tea and cola.

The FDA committee heard evidence that antidepressants can suppress Rapid Eye Movement and block the muscle paralysis that occurs in that stage so some people may even act out their nightmares. The regulation of waking, sleeping and dreaming occurs in the brainstem where serotonin neurons are clustered.
