The Impact On Children Who Parents Are Alcoholics Or Drug Addicts / Educational Video PSA
- The Impact On Children Who Parents Are Alcoholics Or Drug Addicts / Educational Video PSA. Children in families experiencing alcohol or drug abuse need attention, guidance and support. They may be growing up in homes in which the problems are either denied or covered up. These children need to have their experiences validated. They also need safe, reliable adults in whom to confide and who will support them, reassure them, and provide them with appropriate help for their age. They need to have fun and just be kids. Families with alcohol and drug problems usually have high levels of stress and confusion. High stress family environments are a risk factor for early and dangerous substance use, as well as mental and physical health problems. It is important to talk honestly with children about what is happening in the family and to help them express their concerns and feelings. Children need to trust the adults in their lives and to believe that they will support them. Children living with alcohol or drug abuse in the family can benefit from participating in educational support groups in their school student assistance programs. Those age 11 and older can join Alateen groups, which meet in community settings and provide healthy connections with others coping with similar issues. Being associated with the activities of a faith community can also help. Dependence on alcohol and drugs is our most serious national public health problem. It is prevalent among rich and poor, in all ...

Testing & Treating of Triglycerides (Part 2 of 2) | HealthiNation
- High and very high levels of triglycerides can be dangerous. Learn the tests and treatments for these conditions. Related Links: What are Triglycerides? (Part 1 of 2) | HealthiNation www.youtube.com Very High Triglycerides "Do Not Eat" List | HealthiNation www.youtube.com The only way to know if you have high triglyceride levels, also called hypertriglyceridemia, is to have a blood test. Your triglyceride levels are usually measured along with your cholesterol levels, which is where the issue can get confusing. Triglycerides are similar to cholesterol, but they are not the same. The two are different substances and are used in different ways inside the body. Cholesterol is used, for example, to build cell walls and manufacture certain hormones whereas, triglycerides are fats that provide your body with energy. To check the lipid levels in your blood, you'll want to ask your doctor to perform a blood test called a lipid profile. This test will reveal your total cholesterol and triglyceride levels. This is a fasting test, meaning you should not have by anything by mouth except water for 9 to 12 hours before having your blood drawn. Otherwise the test will yield lipid readings that can be misleading. After reading your blood test results, your doctor will tell you if your triglyceride levels fall into a healthy range: Normal is less than 150 mg/dL Borderline high is 150 to 199 mg/dL High is 200 to 499 mg/dL Very high is 500 mg/dL or greater. In women, research suggests that ...

I cannot seem to grasp some of the details. I began reading articles and trying to research more in depth but it is difficult for me to understand. How could this kind of crime have been prevented? Where did it take place? Who was actually involved in such a crime? How was it run? How long has this been approximately going on for? Etc. Any kind of information would be greatly appreciated. I am especially curious as to how long it had been going on for until Vicks was finally caught and how he was caught. Did his childhood or career play a role in such a violent crime?
