Real men don't go to the doctor
Article Abstract:
Women in the UK live, on average, five years longer than men, with men being twice as likely as women to die before the age of 65. Men are more at risk than women of dying from cancer, heart disease, Aids, accidents and suicide. In younger men, the main causes of death are accidents and violence. In men of all ages, there is a strong reluctance to consult a doctor about health problems. This means that problems which could have been easily treated at an early stage become much more serious.

No business like H20 business
Article Abstract:
Most people fail to drink enough water, and this can cause chronic low-level dehydration. This can in turn lead to lethargy, headaches, lack of alertness and altered mood states. Furthermore, chronic dehydration is thought to play a part in high blood pressure, asthma, backache and indigestion. Research indicates that drinking lots of fluids can dilute cancer-causing chemicals in the urine.
