Does Herbal Tea Dehydrate You?
Tea is an increasingly popular drink due to its wide range of health benefits and delicious varieties. Additionally, drinking tea provides a convenient way of reaching daily fluid intake goals when water becomes dull and boring. Although some tea varieties contain caffeine which may have diuretic effects, most herbal varieties contain minimal levels of caffeine that won’t dehydrate you as quickly; and an average cup of tea provides electrolytes which help the body regulate fluid balance via osmosis. Most herbal infusions such as rooibos and chamomile contain no caffeine and provide just as much hydration as drinking a glass of water. Peppermint tea may have small traces of caffeine. Caffeinated black, green, oolong, and white teas contain moderate levels of caffeine; green having the least while black contains the highest. Drinking large quantities of caffeine-containing tea could temporarily cause temporary dehydration through increased urination; however, its effect will likely be…
What Does Increase in Health Care Costs Do to the Economy?
As healthcare profit pools are threatened by COVID-19 pandemic, cost control should become a primary objective. Unfortunately, simply cutting healthcare spending won’t improve affordability or sustainability for the industry; rather, its root causes must also be tackled; prices and utilization have both seen increases over the years due to an aging population, rising healthcare prices, and use of higher-cost procedures that have all contributed to an uptick in spending. Rising health care costs affect individuals’ incomes and wealth, leading to decreased spending power on other goods and services, contributing to slower economic growth. This reduction of household purchasing power has reverberations throughout the economy that could slow its pace of expansion. Increased healthcare costs impede other forms of spending, including government borrowing. As a result, consumers and businesses pay higher interest rates, decreasing their ability to finance other activities that would boost economic growth – this phenomenon is known as…
What is Health Care Morality?
Health care professionals’ actions and decisions when providing medical care can raise a range of ethical issues that may be contentious or provoke passionate discussion. Yet most are expected to adhere to at least some ethical principles when treating their patients; the most widely held ones being beneficence, autonomy decision-making on behalf of patients and justice principles. The Oath of Hippocrates and related medical codes of ethics contain explicit prohibitions against abortion and euthanasia, while also endorsing a moral (if not legal) obligation of confidentiality when dealing with personal information regarding patient status and condition. Health care professionals must generally respect patients’ autonomy when making treatment decisions for them, which involves providing all pertinent and essential information about a specific condition, as well as spending whatever time may be necessary to assist with practical rational deliberation on options to address said disorder. Failing to do so would constitute paternalism which…

Is a Poker Run Considered Gambling?
A poker run is a charity event that requires participants to pay an entry fee; this money goes toward prizes while any extra goes to worthy causes.

Is Poker Gambling Or Luck?
Poker is a card game that requires some skill, yet most people who play it rely heavily on luck. While this combination can make for an entertaining and successful gaming experience, long-term it can have adverse consequences; therefore, it is vital that all parties involved understand whether poker constitutes gambling or not. A judge in Brooklyn recently issued a ruling finding that poker is more of a game of skill than chance, so cannot be prosecuted under laws meant to stop organized crime families from profiting from gambling. This decision has been welcomed by those advocating legal online poker as it shows its potential to be legitimately regulated. However, some players still believe poker to be gambling and point to their losing streaks as evidence that it is gambling. This phenomenon is known as negativity bias – people’s tendency to focus on negative experiences and stimuli can have a serious…
