Looks like eating too much can be bad:\n\n"Precautions\nThis herb is not suggested for small children and should not be used for a prolonged period of time. Preparations using fennel are also not recommended for pregnant women."\n\n"Long term use of senna can cause excessive losses of fluids and potassium, which may lead to dehydration."\n\n"Fennel preparations should not be used on a prolonged basis (several weeks) without consulting a physician or pharmacist"

NO!!!! \n\nDo NOT take Euclayptus oil internally!!!!!\n\n\n That stuff is poisonous. More than a teaspoon or two will make your seriously ill and quite possibly kill you.\n\nPure means pure, unmixed, refined. It does not mean safe. You can get pure arsenic and pure dogshit as well. That doesn't mean those things are safe for human consumption.

Often no treatment is needed. Increases in hydration, increasing fiber content in the diet (the American Dietetic Association recommends 20-35 grams each day), or removing factors resulting in constipation help decrease the incidence of new diverticuli or possibly keep them from bursting or becoming inflammed (ADA website). Fiber supplements may aid if diet is inadequate. If the diverticuli are unusually large (greater than 1 inch), often infected (see diverticulitis), or exhibit uncontrollable bleeding, surgery can be performed to decrease relapse or other complications. The NIDDK says foods such as nuts, popcorn hulls, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, caraway seeds, and sesame seeds should be avoided because they may irritate diverticuli. The seeds in tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers, strawberries, raspberries, and poppy seeds, are not considered harmful by the NIDDK. Treatments, like some colon cleansers, that cause hard stools, constipation, and straining, are not recommended.

you should only eat up to 2 tbsp's of peanut butter everyday--more and it'll be too much\n\nhowever, nuts like almonds, are high in protein, and high in unsaturated fats (the good kind), and keep you feeling full for longer periods of time--this would curb your appetite and would allow you not to overeat because you don't get that hungry when it comes to meal time \n\nso bringing a handful of almonds as a midafternoon or midmorning snack between meals is a great way to keep energized and full during the day\n\nthe unsaturated fats in the nuts boost HDL production--and decrease LDL production \nHigh density lipoproteins are good for you, and low density lipoproteins are bad since they can cause clogged arteries and heart problems\n\nnuts, when eaten excessively, can make you fat--because eating anything excessively can make you fat\nbut if you have a handful of nuts as a snack, and 1 tbsp of peanut butter--it'll keep your blood glucose intact for longer periods of time, be good for your heart and circulatory system, and keep you feelin full...all great benefits

There have been tests that suggest it MIGHT cause problems in rats...but the amount they consume is huge, we probably wouldnt eat the comparable amount (weight for weight) in a life time!  So you're OK :D

yes it is true.  whether or not it is enough to kill you is dependent on how many seeds you are roasting.  check the link below for more infomation.  but there is a compound that has a cyanide function group which is liberated upon heating.  the compound is called amygdalin and also contains some sugars.

I'd be more worried about the side effects of drinking that much processed soy every day.  Processed soy products contain a lot of extra plant hormones and isoflavens that can accumulate in your body and cause problems with your thyroid, your brain, and your hormone levels.  If you're pregnant, you definately shouldn't drink it that often, nor should you if you are a teenage or pre-teen, even more so if you are male.

I can't imagine it would be "dangerous" but if you are on chemical blood thinners (coumadin) & ate loads of garlic it might have an affect on your blood? Really not too sure about that one so you should ask your doc or pharmacist if you take that kind of medicine. If you DON'T take meds, then NO, I'd say it wasn't "dangerous" to consume that much. You might have trouble finding somebody to snuggle up with you for kisses, tho!!! Garlic is good when roasted with olive oil out on the grill!!! Enjoy it!!! (you might want to move to Gilroy, CA - home of the Garlic Festival!!)

Some people quote the bible as saying its wrong to "spill your seed", but that's just stupid. There is nothing wrong with masterbation and it hurts no one.  It's also a great way of getting to know your own body.

Why only Christians???---Eating too much is harmful for Everyone\n\nWe in India also think that eating too much hinders spiritual progress. I wouldn't use the word 'sin' though\n\nIf you are exercising and feel energetic, that should be okay then, but at the same time do think about the long term after effects of 'over eating'

I would not eat them for every meal but they are a good source of nutrition, watch the sodium content and stay away from creamy soups, those are high in fat and calories

Not sure what the question is.\n\nWhenever overdosing is suspected...please call the Poison Control Center [1-800-222-1222, more info at http://www.aapcc.org/findyour.htm, including local centers] \n\n...or even 911 in a life threatening situation.\n\nIt is possible to overdose on essential oils.\nFor example, "An overdose of essential oil of rosemary may lead to deep coma, vomiting, spasms, uterine bleeding, gastroenteritis, kidney irritation, and even death, according to the PDR for Herbal Medicines. No documented cases have been reported, however." [ http://health.enotes.com/alternative-medicine-encyclopedia/rosemary ]\n\nAnother example..."Pennyroyal herb and volatile oils have been associated with multiple reports of toxicity and adverse effects, including seizures, loss of consciousness, and death. In animals, pennyroyal (taken by mouth or placed on the skin) has been associated with liver, lung, and brain toxicity. Doses greater than 10 milliliters of pennyroyal may be associated with death. Cases of human overdose and death have been reported in infants, children, and adults. " [http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/patient-pennyroyal.html#Safety]\n\n\nI came across this scientific article which is not available for free on the internet. I can email you the PDF, just let me know.\n[It may be available at your local public library, or at a nearby\nacademic or medical library...just call ahead! Most academic and medical libraries are open to the public.\n\nHere's the information about the article:\n\nTitle: Essential Oil Poisoning. \nAuthor(s): Woolf, Alan \nSource: Journal of Toxicology -- Clinical Toxicology, Oct99,\n              Vol.  37 Issue 6, p721, 7p, 3 graphs \n\nAbstract: Presents an overview of essential oil poisoning. Definitions of terms that can help in the understanding of the toxicology of essential oils; Therapeutic uses of essential oils; General toxic principles applying to herbs used commonly as essential oils or in other forms; Toxicities of specific essential oils. \n\nAnother idea...go to the library...for this book, or books like\nthis (don't be shy to ask a reference librarian for assistance!..\neven at an academic or public library..or even don't be shy to call ahead!).\n\nEssential Oil Safety:\nA Guide for Health Care Professionals \nAuthor: Robert B. Tisserand and Tony Balacs\nPublisher: Churchill Linvingstone\nCopyright: 1995\n"This book is invaluable to the serious aromatherapy student, aromatherapy practitioner, health care professional, or anyone seriously interested in understanding the safety precautions and contraindications for essential oils. For anyone past the stage of enjoying "recipe"-style aromatherapy books and seeks a solid knowledge about the safe and effective use of essential oils, this book is is an extremely wise choice. \n\nEssential Oil Safety is a 279-page hard-covered textbook that features in-depth profiles of 95 essential oils and more concise profiles for 311. It also contains brief profiles for 135 essential oil constituents. It discusses dosage (internal and external), specific administering and avoidance for those with specific medical issues, skin application, oil adulteration, essential oil chemistry, essential oil constituents, essential oils and administration to children, how metabolism works in conjunction with essential oils, essential oil toxicity, and more.

My wife and I mixed in one tablespoon of ground flax seeds per bowl of oatmeal on two occasions this weekend.  Neither of us have farted so much in our entire lives.  Perhaps they should be re-named "fart seeds."
