While it is true that in theory, many diseases including E.coli, norovirus, and even Ebola, can be picked up from a toilet, swab studies indicate that many bathroom surfaces, especially handles and latches, are equally or even dirtier than toilet seats. Experts say that the danger of catching a disease from a toilet seat is minimal unless the germs come in contact with an open cut, or reach the mouth, nose or eyes by hand. Healthy skin is an effective barrier against germs. In comparison to the skin of the face or hand, the skin of the buttocks and legs are less likely to be cracked as it suffers less exposure to external damaging factors. If you still feel at risk, consider carrying antiseptic wipes with you as tests have shown that they reduce germs on toilet seats by half.

How can you ensure that you are eating an adequate portion of protein, vegetable, carbohydrate and fat without weighing and measuring your food all the time? Precision Nutrition, an online nutrition coaching company, has a simple solution. Your palm determines your protein portions. A palm-sized portion is the same thickness and diameter as your palm. Use this measure measure for foods like meat, fish, eggs, dairy and beans. Your fist determines your vegetables portions. Use a fist-sized serving for veggies like broccoli, spinach, salad and carrots. Your cupped hand determines your carbohydrate portions. If you are including extra carbohydrates such as grains or starches in a meal, use a cupped hand to determine your serving size. Your thumb determines your fat portions. Use your entire thumb to determine your serving size of extra fats like oils, butters, and nuts or seeds. Generally, men may consume two portions per protein, vegetable, carbohydrate and fat in each meal while women consume one portion.

Arthritis is a chronic condition which can destroy your joints. It causes weakness and loss of movement, and sufferers are at an increased risk of heart disease. It affects three times as many women as men. A pilot study on arthritis patients by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology suggests that high intensity training not only does not aggravate their condition, but has positive effects on heart disease risk factors. 18 women with arthritis, between the ages of 20-49, participated in 10 weeks of intense training on a spinning bike twice a week. The participants showed improved endurance and they suffered less inflammation as measured by the inflammation marker C-Reactive Protein. They also saw a significant increase in oxygen intake,which helps in reducing the risk of heart disease, and a small reduction in body fat and waist measurement.
