Answer to Question 1

To minimize inactivity when you have limited time and space, look to enhance daily nonexercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT) or the energy expended doing daily activities not related to exercise. Aim to achieve NEAT for 10 minutes every waking hour. Examples of such activities include:
1. Walk instead of drive when you only need to go short distances.

2. Park farther away or get off the subway, train, or bus several blocks from the campus or office.

3. Take a short walk right after each meal or snack.

4. Walk faster than usual.

5. Move about whenever you take a break.

6. Take stairs as often as you can. Walk up and down the escalators when you don't have a choice of stairs.

7. When watching TV, stand up and move during each commercial break, or even better, workout during TV time.

8. Do not shy away from housecleaning chores or yard work.

9. Stand more while working/studying. Place your computer on an elevated stand or shelf and stand while doing work, writing emails, or surfing the Internet. Standing triples the energy requirement of doing a similar activity sitting.

10. Always stand while talking on the phone.

11. When reading a book, get up and move after every 6-10 pages of the book.

12. Use a stability ball for a chair. Such use enhances body stability, balance, and abdominal, low back, and leg strength.

13. Whenever feasible, walk while conversing or holding meetings.

14. Walk to classmates' homes or coworkers' offices to study or discuss matters with them instead of using the phone, email, or computer.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.

Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness. As of yet, there is no cure. Everyone is at risk, and there may be no warning signs. It is six to eight times more common in African Americans than in whites. The best and most effective way to detect glaucoma is to receive a dilated eye examination.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
