Do Professional Athletes Ever Drink Alcohol?
There is a common belief that all successful athletes avoid alcohol like the plague but this is not necessarily the case. You see, when talking about professional athletes, popular media usually portrays them as these disciplined, driven machines without a single vice. This portrayal is, truth be told, quite dishonest and it’s only justified if the one creating the image is trying to set the right example in the eyes of the younger audience. The problem lies in setting impossible standards, ones that these kids won’t ever be able to live up to. Such a thing will inevitably lead to disappointment and all negative ramifications that come along.

Coronavirus Is Not A Hoax - The Virus is Deadly Serious
Every day, I have read more and more on social media that people think the Coronavirus is a hoax. I don't know if they believe Mr. Trump when he said it. There are so many cases we know, and still he dare to say lies.

My Experience with the Chemical Diet
Not many people have heard of the Chemical Diet, where you can lose weight fast. I hadn't heard of it myself until I read about it on James Duncan's blog site. I was sure it was a scam until I tried it and lost weight fast! So, I looked into it and couldn't find much about it except for it being mentioned on the Netmums website, and I read the comments from people who have tried the Chemical Diet, who claimed to have lost weight fast within the first week. At first, I thought it wasn't something that would work, but I was wrong!

Coronary Heart Disease: Symptoms, Risk Factors and Treatment
The blood supply to the heart is done by the coronary arteries. The oxygen-rich blood helps in the proper functioning of the heart. As there are two main coronary arteries located outside the heart, the one on the left supplies blood to the left ventricle and atrium while the right coronary artery is responsible for supplying blood to the right ventricle and atrium. However, if there is plaque accumulated in any of these arteries, then the blood flow to the heart can reduce significantly. It is responsible for narrowing the coronary arteries leading to several heart-related medical issues. Thus, patients suffering from high cholesterol should get regularly lipid profile test done from a reputed pathology lab in order to avoid life-threatening health problems.
