Hello, is it possible to buy a book which contains all different illnesses and their symptoms?
For a layman, the best and easiest option might be Black’s Medical Dictionary. First published it 1906 it continues to be an excellent buy in my view. I got one when I first entered medical school and even though it is a bit dated it is still a useful book.
I run and work out nearly every day but when it comes to big fitness goals I have a hard time staying motivated. I want to run a marathon by next summer as well as complete a triathlon. Any tips for staying motivated?

I’m a freshman in college, majoring in nutrition. For my major you have to do a 5th year internship. To be chosen, it looks really good if you’ve worked and volunteered in things that relate somewhat to nutrition. I’m trying to think outside the box. I’ve been looking at the local hospital, my states food bank and nursing homes. Also job-wise there are restaurants and grocery stores maybe? But what are some other ideas where I could possibly work with any connection to food? I’d really appreciate any ideas! Thanks!

Why does Australia government continue to fund private options when we could have world class public education and health systems like Canada does and their government uses all public funding on public services? please explain to me why Australia is going down a path of inequity and no longer going to be a the land of oportunity for all? please comment?
I might add that 90% of students and patients use the public system and they are still higher quality than Australias?
Ina nutshell…and without going into Welfare State theory….Australia is basically a conservativie nation. Successive governments, both Labor and Liberal, have been more or less conservative as well and the ideologies of a conservative don’t sit well with a welfare state. Both governments are happy to cave to business and are more interested in profit than looking after the average folk. If you look at the history of welfare in Australia you’ll note it was never run by the government in early days and was run by various charities, both religious and non religious, for years. In actual fact the government only ever took a hand in welfare kicking and screaming, and to be able to control welfare. The Benevolent Society (founded 1813 in Sydney) introduced the age pension and advocated for a government sponsored pension system.
On the plus side our welfare system being what it is allows for a lot of movement in either direction, that is either ideologically left or right, and quick action for better or worse. The Canadian system, which is similar to the Scandanavian system, doesn’t allow for much movement and change.
With the new regulation, can health insurance companies deny those with existing conditions from individual coverage?
Currently, privately owned insurance companies can deny coverage to anyone that they think will cost them money. This means that people with existing conditions can easily go broke paying for health care.
Under the Obama plan, these private companies would still not have to accept someone with existing conditions. However, a public option would be available to these people to help them get affordable health care.
So, the insurance industry would not change at all, but people who are not currently insured would be able to get health care without risking financial ruin.
In one of my classes I am required a 10 hour service project. It needs to be something that promotes fitness and that I help plan. Any ideas would be great!! Thank you in advance!
Work with after school clubs (like the Boys & Girls clubs) or non-profit health clubs (YMCA) and try to organize an fitness event. Maybe you could organize a karate instructor to come in and teach a class. Or maybe you could try to get a college athlete to come and give a clinic on that sport – it would be great if it was a sport for both boys and girls, something like soccer.
I am type one diabetic and pregnant. It is vital that I know exactly how many carbs I consume. I have been trying a lot of homemade recipes but have a hard time figuring out nutrition info because some are in ounces others in cups and then I combine them all. Is there a website to enter all the info in that will calculate it up for me?
First of all, I wish you and your baby the very best. Your concern for your diet is commendable, especially since you are now eating for two.
Monitoring carbohydrate consumption is so important for a diabetic, but it is sometimes hard to find the nutritional composition of certain foods. I found a carbohydrate calculator for you, which also includes the entire gamut of nutrients to be found in over 7000 foods. This is important, since there are many other important nutrients to monitor when you are pregnant.
The best thing is that the software is free, and you can download it from the website below.
God bless you and your child, young lady. Hope this helps.
