1. Incorrect. Dietary changes such as the reduction of red meat may be recommended for women experiencing dysmenorrhea.
2. Incorrect. Increasing diuretics, including natural diuretics such as asparagus, cranberry juice, peaches, parsley, and watermelon may help reduce the symptoms associated with dys-menorrhea.
3. Incorrect. Exercise has been found to help relieve menstrual discomfort through increased vasodilation and subsequent decreased ischemia.
4. Correct. Heat minimizes cramping by increasing vasodilation and muscle relaxation and minimizing uterine ischemia.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
