A 50-year-old woman with diabetes can generally eat apples, but portion control and monitoring blood sugar levels are important. Apples contain natural sugars and fiber, which can be beneficial if consumed in moderation. It's best to choose whole apples rather than apple juice or processed apple products, as whole fruits have more fiber and a lower glycemic impact.
Key points to consider:
- Portion size: Eating one small to medium apple per day is usually safe.
- Blood sugar monitoring: Keep track of how apples affect your blood glucose.
- Balanced diet: Include apples as part of a varied diet rich in vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
- Consult your doctor or dietitian: Personalized advice is important, especially if you have other health conditions or take medications.
In summary, apples can be a healthy snack choice for someone with diabetes when eaten mindfully and as part of an overall balanced diet.

View allMy friend has been dealing with 3rd degree gynecomastia and really wants to avoid surgery if possible. Are there any non-surgical treatments or lifestyle changes that could help reduce it before considering an operation? He's feeling pretty self-conscious and just wants to explore all options first.
For 3rd degree gynecomastia, non-surgical options like lifestyle changes and medication are unlikely to fully resolve the condition, but they can help manage symptoms and potentially reduce the degree of enlargement before considering surgery. Focusing on weight loss, exercise, and addressing potential hormonal imbalances through lifestyle adjustments and, in some cases, medication, can be a good first step. However, surgery is often the most effective treatment for significant gynecomastia, especially at the 3rd degree level.

I'm 19 and 5'5 is there any way I can still grow taller even a little without surgery? I don't mind if it's tough or takes time, I just want to know if it's possible at my age
While significant height increase after 19 is unlikely due to growth plate closure, some strategies can help you appear taller and potentially gain a small amount of height. Focusing on posture, diet, and exercise can contribute to overall well-being and potentially maximize your height potential.

I'm 27 and have been doing masturbation since I was 13. My testosterone level is only 269 ngml. My hair is thinning all over my body, and the hair roots seem weak. Even my beard is getting thin and gray. It feels like I'm showing signs of premature aging since June 2017. I saw a homeopathic doctor, but haven't seen much improvement in my hair. Is this something that can be fixed? I'm really worried about it. What should I do?
I would recommend starting with a medication called Finasteride at a dose of 1mg daily to help with hair loss. Additionally, you can consider using Minoxidil solution twice daily on the affected areas. These medications can help improve hair growth and thickness. As for your low testosterone levels, you may benefit from Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) under the guidance of a healthcare provider. It's important to follow up regularly with your doctor to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan
