Is alcohol good for the heart?
One of the many weird medical questions that Dr. Chaturvedi came across when a patient said that he had heard that alcohol is good for health and that if he drinks a lot of it, he will never get a heart attack. If you think on the same lines and are wondering is alcohol good for heart, Dr. Chaturvedi says that in limited quantities, alcohol may be good for the heart, but it severely damages the liver, which may lead to organ failure. Alcohol is one of the main reasons for liver failure, and if you must indulge in social drinking, do so in limited quantities.
How do painkillers work?
Continuing his escapades of funny medical questions, Dr. Chaturvedi says that a patient once asked if he takes a painkiller before slapping himself, will it hurt. If you are convinced by this question and are wondering how painkillers work, Dr. Chaturvedi says that pain killers work after some period of time if you have some inflammation or injury. He advises not to take painkillers without a valid reason as they may cause problems to your kidneys.
When is the best time for natural Vitamin D?
It is well known that one of the best natural vitamin D sources is sunlight. A patient asked Dr. Chaturvedi whether he could stand under the sun all day to overcome his Vitamin D deficiency. Answering another one of these funny medical questions, the doctor states that while sunlight is one of the best natural Vitamin D sources, it doesn’t work that way. For Vitamin D from sunlight, the best time is in the morning. This is a very short period of time when you get good doses of Vitamin D. Rest of the day, sunlight harmful effects could be seen on your skin. Common sunlight harmful effects are tanning and dermatitis.
Why you shouldn’t drink till you vomit?
Dr. Chaturvedi recalls the time a patient told him that his alcoholism is under control because he vomits everything he drinks. The doctor states that as soon as you consume something, it is almost readily absorbed by the body. Vomit after drinking or even otherwise is harmful as you lose a lot of vitamins and injure your windpipe.
