Part of eating a healthy diet is eating a proper amount of dairy products, whether that is from cheese or milk, it is detrimental that in addition to meat, fruits, veggies, and nuts, that you have an adequate amount of dairy in your regular diet.

These food groups are especially important in patients that suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), because food is the bodies energy source.

COPD patients have an increased difficulty of breathing which requires more energy while putting added strain on the lungs, and a poor diet can lead to weight loss which can further weaken the muscles used to breathe.

The human body can go a few days without food and water, but the human body cannot go without oxygen for a full 3 minutes.

Oxygen is the single most important thing in order to operate and nourish the body throughout daily functions.

In fact, just minutes without oxygen can severely damage the heart, lungs, brain, and other immensely vital organs.

When the human body experiences a lack of oxygen you can be susceptible to the development of hypoxia or hypoxemia.

These two are often intertwined and hypoxia is regularly used to describe both problems. Hypoxemia is typically the cause of hypoxia, because the oxygen depleted blood doesn't have sufficient amounts of oxygen present to transport to your tissues, ineffectively keeping up with your bodies demands.

Summer time is often filled with outside activities and being a part of these activities is most enjoyable. You can still be a part of many outside activities, but there are a few points to remember.

First, you are dealing with sensitive electronic equipment and it needs to be cared for just as you care for your smartphone or that new laptop. Leaving such equipment out in the sun, near hot appliances or sources of water are big no-noes.

The delicate circuitry as well as the batteries can be quickly destroyed or compromised by such conditions.
