Does mowing the lawn count as excersize?
You bet. Be sure not to overarch your back, and pull your stomach in. There's a great Velcro rubber belt at any athletic store. Get one and use it over a T-shirt.

Is money really that dirty? Do I have to wash my hands after touching it?

In one study, 94 percent of bills had pathogenic or potentially pathogenic organisms on them. (Interestingly, another study showed 92 percent tested positive for cocaine.) But at the end of the day, are they dangerous? No. Our skin provides a barrier. Just avoid sucking on dollar bills

Are fresh berries healthier than frozen ones?

There's not that big a difference — probably 20 percent — in the nutrient levels. But the good thing about frozen berries is they don't lose those nutrients over time. Net, frozen berries are a great value.

Aspirin, Tylenol, ibuprofen, Aleve: What are the differences and when should I take one and not the others?

Tylenol (acetaminophen) actually is better at reducing fever than pain. Take it when you’re running a temperature. For pain without fever, take one of the others. Never take more than one kind at once.

Does cracking your knuckles really lead to arthritis?

Thinking about my weekly diet, am I wrong to put sushi in the "good for me" column?

Sushi is great, but sashimi — that’s just the fish without the rice — is even healthier.

medical advice!
How can I tell whether it's just a muscle strain or actually a torn muscle?

All strains are muscle tears, and they’re all treated the same way: ice for 24 to 72 hours, then warm compresses. And rest.

Are there any vegetables that are bad for you?

Not exactly, but colored veggies are better than white, starchy ones.

Are there any drawbacks to all these new raw-food diets?

You’ll definitely lose weight and improve your cholesterol numbers eating only raw foods, but you may not get enough protein and healthy oils. Keep some cooked fish in the mix.

When it comes to exercising outdoors, how cold is too cold?

Zero and below, or a windchill of minus 20 or more. This is frostbite territory. If it’s warmer than that, you’re fine. Just don’t overdo it.

If I'm otherwise a pretty healthy eater, is one doughnut a week really so bad?

No.

I use sleeping pills a couple times a week. Any long-term risks?

The studies haven’t been done. But know this: Good sleep hygiene — dark, cool room; good mattress; loose clothes; regular routine — helps more than half of all insomniacs.
