My Slow Movement Manifesto . First Place in Inhale, Exhale Challenge. Top Story - July 2020.
What if we embraced a slower pace instead of pushing against the stillness? As the world is slowing down, many of us are feeling the dangerous pull of an opposing force: the pressure to be more productive, forge ahead in our careers, and achieve the "perfect" lockdown body. In addition to the negative mental health impacts of this mindset, the exercise and wellness industry can be damagingly ableist, catering solely to those with high levels of fitness and bodily autonomy. My slow movement mantra is this: All bodies are beautiful. All bodies deserve the judgement-free joy of easy movement.

Immune system
The body reacts daily to attacks of bacteria, viruses and other microbes through the immune system. Very complex, this barrier is composed of millions of cells of different types and with different functions, responsible for ensuring the body's defense and keeping the body functioning free of disease.

Life After a Splenectomy
On February 3, 2020 I had a complete splenectomy. My symptoms began in the prior month as mild intermittent pain on my left side. I did not think much of this at first. I was very physically active with two jobs, one as an innkeeper; the other cleaning for my own private clients. In addition to regular daily exercise, it was not uncommon for me to have body aches. I was very active. Over the course of about a week, however, I began experiencing discomfort with breathing and my side pain escalated to the point of me making an emergency room visit. I was hospitalized after a dye contrast MRI found a 5 centimeter cyst on my much enlarged spleen. The normal size is that of about a human fist. Mine was twice that size and I actually felt very full across my entire abdominal area. The next couple of days in the hospital were for observation while I had a complete blood workup, as well as a bone marrow biopsy. There were no significant findings except that I was severely anemic, something that had been an issue much of my adult life. It was decided that a splenectomy would be best so I was given a series of vaccines that are necessary two weeks before the operation and sent home to rest until the procedure.

Drink Water Or Die
This is the time of year when dehydration is a huge factor but it does not have to be. Something as simple as drinking water can prevent so many problems and people simply will not do it. I have watched men working in the sun until they tanned and sweating and never see them take a drink of any liquid. Already I have spoken to or been told of individuals this month who refused to drink water and now are dealing with serious situations. The coronavirus is raging and this is no time to go to the hospital if you don't have to. Making sure you are properly hydrated will prevent heatstroke, kidney stones, kidney failure, dialysis, hospitalization and or death.

Causes of Hair Loss in Teenage Males
You should first of all understand that there is a growth plate at the top of your scalp. This growth plate gets injured when you are a child and because of this you will have thinner hair as you grow older. The reason behind this is that when you are a child, your body uses up more energy and nutrients. Your cells and tissues get damaged easily because of the lack of proper nutrients in your body.
