When you take a tylenol.....how do it know if you took it for a headache, toothache, knee pain or any other pain for that matter?
-
That's funny. I have often thought the same thing before. Good question.

"Acetaminophen, the active ingredient in Tylenol products, relieves mild to moderate pain by elevating your body's overall pain threshold. Acetaminophen lowers your fever by helping your body eliminate excess heat."

That's bullshit. Acetopinophen works by interrupting the production of acetocholine, a neurotransmitter.

Tortoise is the name given to land-dwelling reptiles most of whose body is shielded by a special shell. Turtles and terrapins are the aquatic species.

They are very prevalent around the college park area.

But I think boxwoods you get around here are land dwelling, but google seems to give more hits for boxwood turtle than boxwood tortoise.

NSAIDS work by blocking the production of prostaglandins..a neurotransmitter. Prostaglandins also have a function in producing the stomach lining...hence the burn. BTW, NSAIDS do not burn the stomach directly...they only affect the stomach via their serum levels in the blood. So when a doctor sez to take NSAIDS with food...that's bullshit. It just proves how little most medical docs really know...

showoff! wtf is an "nsaids"? lech mich am asch

Google the fucker.

Turtles are reptiles of the order Testudines, most of whose body is shielded by a special bony shell developed from their ribs. The term turtle is usually used for the aquatic species, aquatic fresh-water turtles also being referred to as terrapins. The term is also used (esp. North America) to refer to all members of the order, including tortoises, which are predominantly land based.
The Box turtle is one of several species of turtles. It can refer to either Bataguridae, which includes the Asian box turtle or Emydidae, which includes numerous species of box and water turtles. Some Box Turtle species have a hinged plastron and are able to tighly close themselves inside their shells when threatened, hence the name. Eastern box turtles are considered endangered, and it is considered illegal to take them out of their natural habitat due to excess collecting. Feeding mainly on worms, slugs, and insects, box turtles are most active in early mornings or after rains, when the ground is moist, and the sun isn't too hot. It is easy to tell male and females of the species apart, as males have bright, red eyes, and the females have dark ones. Males also have longer, thicker tails. They make their homes in substrates such as leaves or dirt, but are usually found near streams or ponds. Staying small in size, males grow to up to 7", and females to about 8", but when sold, are usually only around 4 to 5" in length. In the wild, box turtles are known to live over 80 years, but usually only live between 30-50 in captivity.
