Am I prepared for Bariatric Surgery?

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 16:05:48 PDT

Please understand that I am not sharing all of this information to deter you from wanting to have bariatric surgery. I am sharing this as I don’t think they prepare candidates enough for what they will have to endure. It’s an extremely lengthy process, and one that I had considered just giving up a few times. It’s very exciting and at the same time very stressful for you and all of those around you. No related posts.

Visitors Web Browser Market Share Comparison

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 18:34:32 PDT

Internet Explorer lost about 9 percentage points early 2012. It looks like most of it has been grabbed by Safari and Chrome. Safari and Chrome which had about 10 percentage points of visitor's monitors combined, now enjoy a jump to 22 percentage points. A jump of 12 percentage points - which is quite phenomenal. A look at the infographic suggests that most of this jump came from eating into IE's market share ! So, is this trouble for IE? Or is this just a misnomer? No related posts.

Nausea and Vomiting in Pregnancy – Health and Science Articles

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 12:00:35 PDT

Over 80% of the pregnant women experience nausea and vomiting especially during first trimester of pregnancy. These symptoms of nausea and vomiting are commonly called as ‘Morning sickness’. But the term ‘Morning Sickness’ is a misnomer as the nausea and vomiting can be triggered at any time during the day. Since each woman is different and each pregnancy is different, the severity of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy will vary from woman to woman. As the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hcG) and estrogen hormones start decreasing in body, around the 14th week, the pregnancy nausea also starts to decrease. Related posts:

Best Student Credit Cards with no credit – Choosing and Applying

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 17:34:08 PST

First and foremost, don't get a credit card. Period. Or even if you get it, as soon as it arrives at your home or dorm, put it in a locker somewhere where you don't have access every now and then. This serves two purposes. It does help you in building your credit as you would have a card on file. And it still doesn't put you on the hook because of those tempting purchases you made as you were lured by the available credit. That awesome looking Macbook that your dorm mate bought on credit for a 1000 bucks will eventually cost him way more than that. Just buy what you can afford and pay right then and there out of pocket... not our of credit. Related posts:

Treating Your Skin Problems with Laser – Science Articles

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sat, 25 Sep 2010 15:17:45 PDT

When the buzz on lasers as an anti-aging tool first started in the early 1990s, people didn't know what to make of it. To most people, lasers were symbols of the kind of high-tech wizardry associated with the characters in Star Wars. Faster than the speed of light, however, lasers went from being a novel idea of the future to a much-improved alternative to the cosmetic procedures that already existed. Related posts:

How to Treat Wrinkles – Science Articles – Health

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 08:28:47 PDT

Ah, wrinkles. Wrinkles seem to be the symbol for aging, and they are the focus of nearly every slick advertisement for skin care flashing across your television screen. A preoccupation with all types of lines and wrinkles is likely to start in a woman's late twenties to early thirties, when she sees the first indication that she's no longer a teenager. In younger women, the presence of wrinkles is usually linked to a premature degeneration of collagen and elastin from sun damage. In time, however, everyone, including people who were diligent about sun protection, will end up with some wrinkles. Related posts:

Stress and Its Effects on the Body – Stress Articles

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Tue, 03 Aug 2010 09:24:11 PDT

Stress, if left unattended for very long can cause long-standing health issues and can even cut your lifespan down considerably. Steps have to be taken in order to lengthen and increase the longevity of your life. Stress not only wreaks havoc on the individual who has it, it often rubs off to family members and close friends as well. If friends and family see that you are having a hard time with stress and related stressful issues, they may begin to experience it as well. Related posts:

How to Prevent the Backlog Building Up of Body Maintenance

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 08:43:49 PDT

It is perfectly natural that in the process of using your body you will generate maintenance jobs for it to do. This could be cell repair or renewal, toxin disposal or processing new resources. These jobs have to be stacked up until your body has time to deal with them during rest, therefore to maintain a healthy balance you have to ensure that these jobs never get too big or that your body has the time and resources to sort them out before new jobs appear.

The Truth about Collagen Injections – Health Article

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sun, 01 Aug 2010 06:35:34 PDT

For starters, collagen injections are one of the most comfortable procedures out there, thanks to the lidocaine, a local anesthetic, that's already premixed in the syringe. To make the entire process completely painless, a patient can choose to numb the area that will be treated with a thick coating of a cream that also contains lidocaine. Some patients choose to undergo the procedure without this extra step, while others happily ask for it and use the additional thirty minutes of waiting time to catch up on their magazines. The cream is then removed, the procedure is performed, and the skin remains numb for approximately an hour afterward. Related posts:

The Benefits from Botox Treatment – Health Article

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sat, 31 Jul 2010 07:18:53 PDT

It's been proved that Botox helps with migraine headaches, a debilitating condition. The reason isn't exactly clear, but I suspect that the muscle-relaxing effect of Botox has something to do with it. Another theory is that Botox has a positive effect on the pain transmitters in the face. A few years ago I treated a patient who I thought was exaggerating when she said her headache had disappeared immediately after she was injected with Botox. Today, however, I'm a believer in this application. Recently another patient told me that her crippling headaches had kept her home from work for two weeks and that to her, Botox was truly heaven-sent. Even one of the nurses in my Miami office uses Botox for this purpose; her headaches are so severe that she often has to turn off the lights in her office and rest her head. For many, the instant relief that Botox delivers in just a shot or two—with relief lasting as long as four months— is far more desirable than taking an endless stream of pain medication. Of course, no one complains about the side benefits! Related posts:

How to Treat Hyperpigmentation – Health Article

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 09:13:45 PDT

Most pigment changes in the skin can be attributed to two major factors: hormonal shifts (pregnancy and the use of oral contraceptives are likely culprits) and prolonged exposure to the sun. An old injury, a disease, or an incorrectly administered cosmetic procedure can also contribute to this uneven accumulation of skin pigment in the form of postinflammatory hyperpigmentation. When the cause is hormonal, the pigmentation is called melasma, and it shows up as irregularly shaped blotches, usually on the cheeks, forehead, and upper lip. Melasma is a very common condition but, unfortunately, one of the most difficult to eliminate completely. A few lucky patients might see it go away on its own. Related posts:

Stress and Its Crippling Effects

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 08:49:10 PDT

Stress is something we all deal with from time to time and stress can often be helpful or harmful. Depending on how often you feel stressed or know that you are indeed stressed, it can start to affect more than just your daily life. Stress is often the number one culprit of many health-related issues and can even be deadly. If not properly handled, stress can result in depression, heart disease and a whole slew of other illnesses and diseases of the body and mind. Now on the positive side of things, stress can be helpful at times. The aggravation can help push us to get things done that we need to do such as, meet deadlines, speak before an audience and many other scenarios.d Related posts:

How to Maintain a Healthy Body Balance – Health Article

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 13:33:53 PDT

If there is one thing that the body really hates it is extremes of anything for too long. That doesn't mean, however, that you should want or expect a life devoid of difficult situations. Unexpected, scary and challenging events are a natural part of living and we deliberately experiment and take risks in the hope of achieving satisfaction. The body has a system to deal with the ups and downs of living, one that enables it to maintain, or return to a healthy balance. The body utilizes pairs of opposites to work together - for example, chemicals, responses, muscles - to enable controlled actions to occur throughout the body. Related posts:

How to Increase Your Energy

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 05:20:35 PDT

It is very rarely one big thing that upsets your health and well-being but more a combination of negative aspects that build up over time, making your body less resilient to the stresses and strains of living. When the body is bogged down with a multitude of small but on-going imbalances it will find it harder to cope with a sudden emergency or trauma or have no energy left over to have fun. The route to energy recovery involves addressing the negative aspects that have lead to, or are maintaining, a strain on the body, and introducing a combination of positive steps that will improve your health.

Causes of Allergies – Family and Lifestyle Factors

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 07:36:14 PDT

Allergic problems tend to run in families, and the likelihood of a child developing an allergy is increased if one or both parents suffer from this problem. If both parents are allergic, the risk is 75 percent; if one parent is allergic, the risk is 50 percent. On average, between 10 and 20 percent of the population is allergic, although this is higher in certain age groups due to the increasing development of allergic problems in children. There is research evidence suggesting that the types of allergic disease the parents suffer from may influence the types of allergy their children develop. This is due to the inherited nature of the response to allergens and the body's response to the allergic reaction. Related posts:

Shopping For Auto Insurance

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sat, 24 Jul 2010 04:40:21 PDT

The most time efficient way to shop for car insurance is over the internet. You can type car insurance into any search engine and thousands of results will appear. Next you will need to decide which carrier is best for you. It is always better to go with a well known national company. It is not recommended buying car insurance from “Joe’s Car Insurance”. You will surely get poor coverage and poor service. Choose a provider that has been around for several years and that is well know. No related posts.

How to Read Food Labels And Nutrition Information

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 07:17:50 PDT

By law, manufacturers have to label foods so it is clear exactly what is in them and, where appropriate, to give nutritional advice. This is good news for shoppers - although labels can still seem to be a source of confusion first and information second. Ingredients lists on Food LabelsItems with more than one ingredient must list everything that they contain. The ingredient at the top of this list is the one it contains most of (by weight). So if a preserve lists sugar and then strawberries, you know it's going to have less fruit than a jam that puts strawberries first. Related posts:

Understanding Adrenaline Rush – Hormones

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 00:57:38 PDT

Adrenaline works to deadlines: the more immediate the deadline, the greater its ability to get the body moving and thinking. This is a good thing - in fact, it is a great thing because it can get you out of danger fast. However, adrenaline is only designed to be released in short, sharp doses. There is nothing wrong with putting your body on maximum output but the longer the output of adrenaline is sustained, or the more regularly it occurs, the greater the wear and tear on your body and the faster the drain on energy supplies.

How to Improve the Condition of Your Cells

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 22:46:50 PDT

If you have healthy cells, then these will be replaced by healthy cells but, if your cells have suffered from damage and are weakened by lack of resources, you will end up with weak cells that could become damaged or dysfunctional. This means that your cells will be less able to cope with the things you throw at it, and a continuing lack of resources will weaken it still further. Related posts:

Dealing with Depression and Gender Bias

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 03:26:15 PDT

Studies by psychologists and psychiatrists alike have shown that depression tends to associate itself based on gender. When the patient amongst the subjects conducted was believed to be female, they were more likely than not to be diagnosed of a hysterical personality, believed to be more of a 'women's disorder'. Whenever the subject of the diagnosis was a male, they were more often than not diagnosed as having an antisocial personality, which is deemed most commonly as a 'male disorder'. Related posts:

Asthma Causes and Symptoms – What You Must Know

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 07:36:32 PDT

The onset of asthma commonly takes place in childhood, but it can start at any age. For most children with asthma (about 80 percent), and for more than half the adult sufferers, there is an allergic basis for their disease - this means that being in contact with a specific allergen makes their symptoms worse. This exposure may occur only periodically, such as when you visit the home of a cat-owning friend, or it can be continuous, as with the allergens resident in your home. Common allergens in the home are those relating to house-dust mites, cockroaches, and to pets. Related posts:

Allergic Causes – Household Air Pollution – Allergy Article

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 21:57:05 PDT

Most people spend more than 75 percent of their time inside, so their exposure to many common air pollutants is determined by the level of these substances found inside rather than outside. Air quality in a building will vary widely from one building to another depending on a variety of factors, including the production of chemicals and gases emitted from heating devices, internal fittings, and structural components. Another important factor in determining the level pf air pollution inside is the rate of removal of these substances, which depends on how well your home is ventilated. Related posts:

Outdoor Air Pollution and Allergy

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 01:12:28 PDT

The worsening of asthma due to outdoor pollutants may occur for a number of reasons. For example, many of these pollutants are irritants, and so exposure to SO, and NO, may induce an acute narrowing of the airway. Associated with this is breathing difficulty, while exposure to ozone causes coughing and an inability to breathe deeply, which again leads to the sensation of breathlessness. Related posts:

What are House Dust Mites and How They Complicate Allergies ?

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sat, 10 Jul 2010 21:10:57 PDT

House-dust mites are members of the arachnid family — a family that includes spiders, chiggers, and ticks. Like spiders, they have eight legs, but the mites themselves are sightless and completely harmless, since they do not bite, sting, or transmit diseases of any description. Their natural diet consists of shed human skin scales, plant fibers, house dust, fungal spores, pollen grains, and insect scales. Related posts:

Carpet and Allergies

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sat, 10 Jul 2010 06:04:21 PDT

Soon after a new carpet has been installed, house-dust mites will be busy making themselves at home. Microorganisms, such as bacteria and molds, can also thrive in carpeting, which provides them with a warm, moist environment with plenty to eat. Dirt will inevitably be walked into the carpet from outside, depositing traces of soil, pollen, animal dander; animal waste products, pesticide residues, mold spores, and so on. All of these can cause allergies. This is a good reason to adopt a "no-shoes" policy in the home, for guests as well as members of the family. Related posts:

What is an Allergy ? What causes allergic reactions ?

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 05:00:27 PDT

An adverse immune response is the body's attempt to kill or expel a foreign protein that has invaded it. From the body's perspective, therefore, an allergic reaction is a protective mechanism. While immune reactions can occur in response to viruses or bacteria - and, on occasions, inappropriately to the body's own proteins allergic reactions usually occur in response to external, non-infectious substances.

No doubt you have come across some very informative articles online, and while many of them might have been from sources that were not credible, no doubt you found many that did answer questions you had and were from credible sources. Information is power, and in this case it can mean money. Why do you think companies provide free information or will offer resources about topics in their field? It’s the same reason why we have infomercials or why drug companies fund research or car and petroleum companies fund energy research projects. They know that if the research should prove successful, it could mean big bucks for them. No related posts.

GMAT Test scoring method

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 19:33:27 PDT

We believe, that GMAT testing program (for each mathematical and verbal modules) starts off with a moderate set of questions, and depending on your performance in that set of questions, gives you the next set. On the GMAT test, if you answered the first set mostly correct, you are given a set of questions from a question bank with a higher difficulty. If you fail to answer most of the questions correctly, from the first set given to you, you are then given questions from a lower difficulty level. This goes on until you complete the pre-define number of questions for each module, which is 37 questions for quantitative and 41 questions for Verbal. You have 75 minutes each to complete both modules. Read more.... Related posts:

Caffeine and Headaches | Caffeine Addictions

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 07:04:16 PDT

The most common occurrence of headache is due to blood vessels increasing in size and they gradually wreak havoc on the nerves surrounding them. So most of the headache relievers focus on bringing the blood vessels back to their normal size. Caffeine in small amounts can help to achieve this as it acts asvasoconstrictor.But the darker side is caffeine when used in large amounts especially along with sugar can backfire and cause expansion of blood vessels and thereby resulting in headache.

What is Postpartum? Postpartum exercises for ceasarian

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sun, 26 Jul 2009 21:01:53 PDT

Giving birth to a child is one of the most special and important things a woman does in her lifetime. Women focus on living well prior to their pregnancy and for the nine months they carry their little one below their heart. However, once the baby is born he or she quickly becomes all consuming and mom’s often lose sight of taking care of themselves. It is just as important for women to take care of themselves after childbirth as it is during pregnancy. This is no easy task given the often conflicting information about post partum exercise. Couple this with the complication of a cesarean delivery and recovery and the decisions easily become mind boggling. Click on the title to read more! No related posts.

What is Reverse Ozone Layer Depletion?

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 21:00:51 PDT

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could harness all the ground level ozone, the gas emitted by automobiles and burning fossil fuels that causes smog and subsequent health problems, and release it into to the atmosphere to reverse ozone depletion? In theory, this is possible but the logistics of doing so are extremely complicated and would yield no significant results. It is possible however to reverse ozone depletion in other ways, but this involves the lifestyle and political changes of countries worldwide. Related posts:

Did Alexander really defeat Indian Porus?

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 05:00:56 PDT

There is a controversy on battle between Alexander (Macedonian) and Indian Porus, one of his last battles before he died . While history (legend) says that Alexander won the hard fought battle, some scholars and experts argue that Greeks turned the tale around to hide Alexander's first defeat, which forced him to leave the plans to move further into Great India. It's even more surprising to find out that Plutarch wrote Alexander’s biography over two hundred years after Alexander’s death using oral legends as his source. Read more about it here.

What is Ice Age? How and when does it occur?

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 06:35:07 PDT

An Ice Age is a period of time, typically about 30 million years but occasionally as long as 300 million years, during which ice sheets cover at least the Earth's polar areas. Individual Ice Ages have sub-Ice Ages, called glacials (when cold) or interglacials (when warmer) that operate in cycles of 40,000 and 100,000 years. When the term "Ice Age" is used colloquially, it often refers to these shorter glacials, periods when the ice caps extend significantly beyond the poles and into the hearts of continents such as North America and Eurasia.Read more about 'Ice Age' by clicking here.

“Smell-O-Vision” : Smell The Movie

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 19:06:38 PDT

During the 1950s and early 1960s, motion picture companies experimented with a number of gimmicks in order to compete with the new audience-stealing medium known as television. One of these gimmicks, championed by movie producer Mike Todd, Jr., was dubbed Smell-O-Vision because it attempted to use familiar scents to enhance an audience's movie-going experience. The Smell-O-Vision process proved to be a glitch-filled flop with audiences, however, and only one Smell-O-Vision movie was ever shown in theaters.Read more about it here... Related posts:

What is ‘Muscle Memory’? – Explain Stuff – Unconscious Scientific concept of the day.

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 11:20:43 PDT

Muscle memory can best be described as a type of movement with which the muscles become familiar over time. For instance, newborns don’t have muscle memory for activities like crawling, scooting or walking. The only way for the muscles to become accustomed to these activities is for the baby to learn how to do these things and then practice them with a great deal of trial and error. Gradually, as the baby becomes a skilled walker, he falls less, is able to balance, and finally is able to incorporate other activities into his life such as running. Related posts:

There is historical data about these attacks: a number of foreign men applied to flight school in the United States as part of their attack planning. Based on this historical data, a model can be created that collects data on all of the future applicants to flight schools to see whether any are foreign, or share other characteristics.

Explain what is a macro? – Concept of the day.

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Fri, 29 May 2009 07:00:01 PDT

A macro is a series of keyboard strokes recorded by an application. These keystrokes often represent commands within a piece of software which are combined to reduce the work needed to perform the functions. Macros are then stored within the application to allow for repeated use.When recording a macro within an application like Microsoft Word, the keyboard strokes or commands get bound to a shortcut key or stored within a toolbar making them accessible via the mouse.

Bluescreen has become such a sophisticated technique that it is now virtually impossible to tell the difference between special effects and real film locations. The process can transport actors anywhere in the world, or out of this world, without actually leaving the studio. It can take you to prehistoric times or transport you to outer space.

Most poisonous animal – Explain Stuff Fact of the day

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Wed, 20 May 2009 17:08:08 PDT

Being the most poisonous animal, the Golden Poison Frog has an interesting relationship with humans, as does the fugu pufferfish. The Golden Poison Frog is the main source used by Columbian natives to create poison darts. The frog is captured between sticks, then held near a fire. Under stress, the frog begins releasing poison profusely as small drops which leak from its skin. Related posts:

Attributing the true inventor or inventors to a specific invention can be tricky business. Often credit goes to the inventor of the most practical or best working invention rather than to the original inventor(s). This happens to be the case of the invention of the telephone!There is a lot of controversy and intrigue surrounding the invention of the telephone. There have been court cases, books, and articles generated about the subject. Of course, Alexander Graham Bell is the father of the telephone. After all it was his design that was first patented, however, he was not the first inventor to come up with the idea of a telephone. Related posts:

Fact of the day: Journey to The Sun

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 06:57:26 PDT

A nasa spacecraft set to launch in 2015 will come eight times closer to the Sun than any previous probe, operating within the star's scorching outer atmosphere, or corona. The $750 million Solar Probe will study the birthplace of the solar wind. During its expected seven-year lifetime, Solar Probe will make seven gravity slingshots around Venus, each time getting closer to the Sun. Related posts:

A proxy server, also known as a "proxy" or "application level gateway", is a computer that acts as a gateway between a local network (e.g., all the computers at one company or in one building) and a larger-scale network such as the Internet. Proxy servers provide increased performance and security. In some cases, they monitor employees' use of outside resources. No related posts.

Fact of the Day: The woman who can remember everything

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Tue, 14 Apr 2009 06:21:27 PDT

For years she remained anonymous, referred to only by initials in scientific journals while experts at the University of California-Irvine tested her ability. Mrs Price said her memory started working overtime after her family moved to Los Angeles when she was eight and from the time she was 14, in 1980, she can remember absolutely everything.

Fact of The Day: The world’s most bizarre experiments Part 2 -The Electrification of Human Corpses

admin@explainstuff.com (Adarsh Yadlapalli) — Sun, 12 Apr 2009 20:46:24 PDT

In 1780 the Italian anatomy professor Luigi Galvani discovered that a spark of electricity could cause the limbs of a dead frog to twitch. Soon men of science throughout Europe were repeating his experiment, but it didn't take them long to bore of frogs and turn their attention to more interesting animals. What would happen, they wondered, if you electrified a human corpse? Related posts:

A Paradox is a statement or theory which contradicts or opposes itself in one or many ways. Many years ago, a Law teacher came across a student who was willing to learn but was unable to pay the fees. The student struck a deal saying, "I will pay your fee the day I win my first case in the court". Related posts:
