Americans are some of the most overweight people in the world, not just stereotypically but statistically too. In fact, nearly 42% of U.S. adults are obese, and it’s costing us. Unfortunately, the extra pounds have inflated the costs of obesity-related medical treatment to approximately $190.2 billion a year and annual productivity losses due to work absenteeism to around $4.3 billion.

It's been 35 years since the original Baywatch TV series premiered on NBC in the 1989-1990 season. One year later, it was syndicated and became one of the most popular TV shows on the planet. The show's original cast included David Hasselhoff, who stayed with the series through its entire run. During that time, he was joined by other actors, including (but not limited to) Pamela Anderson, Alexandra Paul, and Jason Simmon. At the time, Simmons, who is gay, was in the closet.

When I studied Anthropology in college, I learned that teeth have been indicators of economic status just about forever. Archaeologists look at the teeth in ancient skeletons and know who the rich were based on their tooth decay. During the Renaissance period, it became fashionable for women to blacken their teeth to look like they were better off than they were, because the royals and aristocrats, who could afford sugar and sweets, had more rotten and missing teeth than the poor.

They're shaped like a potato and tend to bake in hot weather, biologists say. That's why you will find cheeky little pikas in Colorado's mountains. But climate change could cause these critters' numbers to dwindle, according to wildlife experts. Like polar bears, Pikas may predict warmer temperatures, scientists say.

I’m a former nurse and recovering alcoholic, and I’ve been concerned by the lack of health education given to the general public about the dangers of mixing alcohol with certain medications. The common practice is to place warnings on medications that they should not be combined with alcohol. Although some doctors will provide warnings and some education, they often don’t because education takes up a lot of time in a busy healthcare environment. Plus, many doctors underestimate the ability of patients to retain education. Lastly, discussing this may prompt people to stop taking their vital medications so it becomes a risk/benefit issue.

Opinion: Why You Shouldn’t Mix These Medications With Alcohol
