"Eggs, coffee, drinking, sprouts, carbon dioxide, etc... will it ever end???"

ok guys as a nursing student and aware of nutrition, i have hopes for you!!

1. eggs are not bad for you.. although you body manufactures its own cholestrol, its ok to eat eggs if you blood pressure is normal.. just do it in moderation..

2. coffee is not bad for you.. it is not a diuretic.. YEAA!! drink up!!

3.sprouts are a source of fiber!! good!!

4.CO2 is can actually increase your blood O2 level. ex: you start to work out and you start to loose you breath because you are not getting enough O2 to your tissues, therefore you body needs to pump more blood, well your kidneys regulates CO2 levels in you blood so when CO2 leves are high your kidneys produce Erythropoetin (EPO) which travels to bone marrow and stimulates more RBCs production, O2 goes up. so high levels of CO2 in blood will make sorta an EPO effect which is hoe lance armstong has won the tour de france.

anyways that is what i have learned in school!

Holly, you missed drinking. Great benefits for the heart when done in moderation, the cause of many colorful hematomas when not in moderation.

By the way, great hematoma whether drinking was involved or not! Thank you for sharing Wink

We need Summer! Where did it go?
