Q. Dental Caries and Stress are related? Can it be possible that dental caries (cavities) be caused by stress? It seems to me that it can, because stress can cause all kinds of other health problems then why can't it also cause cavities. I have tried to find answers to question online, but have been unsuccessful. Sure would be great to know the answer to this.

A. if you understand the question "dental carries and stress are related?"

there are many factors that cause cavities ...

- poor hygiene
- poor diet
- malnutrition
- disease or illness
- and stress

it is well documented in the medical and alternative fields

Q. can diet problems and adhd be related? Sometimes when I cant concentrate I tend to run to food. Its not out of hunger- I guess its more of a way to deal with the focusing difficulties. I'm really trying to loose weight and every time I have to study for example- I cant control eating instead. is there a known relation between the two?

A. what i mean is- it's fine. i think every one have this problem. all you need to do is get a healthy habit. it'll help you concentrate.

Q. I have a non cardiac breast pain, may be stress related. The stress is gone the pain still there. Any ideas? My pain seems to be concentrated on the breastbone (lower part)and it comes and goes. Stress does have an impact but not always. The pain is not severe but "nagging" and may grow to uncomfortable levels from time to time. All cardiac connections have been checked and are negative.

A. I just went through that this summer, they thought is was my heart again but after many tests they finally did a scope down my throat(not painfull at all) and found out I had ulcers, even though I never had heartburn or acid reflux. 6 weeks of Prilosic and problem solved. Does it help a little to eat when you feel the gnawing feeling in your stomach? Very good indication of ulcers.
