Answer to Question 1

Heart Disease Protein itself is not known to contribute to heart disease and mortality, but some of its food sources may do so. Selecting too many animal-derived protein foods, such as fatty red meats, processed meats, and fat-containing milk products, adds a burden of fat kcalories and saturated fat to the diet and crowds out fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains. Consequently, it is not surprising that people who eat substantial amounts of high-fat meatsparticularly processed meats such as lunch meats and hot dogshave higher body weights and a greater risk of obesity, heart disease, and diabetes than those who eat less. As the Nutrition in Practice points out, people who substitute vegetable protein for animal protein lower their risk of dying from heart disease.
Kidney Disease Excretion of the end products of protein metabolism depends, in part, on an adequate fluid intake and healthy kidneys. A high protein intake increases the work of the kidneys but does not appear to damage healthy kidneys or cause kidney disease.10 In people with chronic kidney disease, however, a high-protein diet may accelerate the kidneys' decline. One of the most effective ways to slow the progression of kidney disease is to restrict dietary protein

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.
