What are some basic tips to give to kids about staying healthy?

Q. I'm trying to teach my 6 year old nephew how to stay healthy. I need tips from eating right, to being active and maintaining hygiene. Any health tips you expect a 6 yr old kid to understand.

A. You should tell them to eat lots of smaller meals and to eat slowly so that their bodies are more able to recognize when they are full. Also its important to drink lots of water and fruit juice rather than soda. Try and encourage him to stay away from junk food and eat fruit or something healthy when he wants a snack. Also teach him to be active, that playing sports and running around is good for you as well as fun. Also teach him the basics of hygiene like showering daily and brushing his teeth 3 times a day. Try and make it all fun for him though, as kids respond more to things that they find enjoyable.

Q. I would also like to read about any tricks or tips for hinding sweaty armpits while in public. It's hard for me at times, because when I'm out in public I have to keep my arms down at all times, and what's worse is that I sweat on my back too. So I don't know if there is a special deordrant out there, or wearing another shirt or are there certain colors I should ware and certain colors I shouldn't ware. Please provide me with any useful infromation that doesn't cost and arm and a leg, and only serious repsonse only please. Thanks in advance.

A. There is a couple of different treatments to try.

1. a Product called Zout located in the laundry aile, works great on any stains on all colored clothing.

2. Pure lemon juice added to the rinse cycle helps eliminate ordors.

Tips on cooking already pre-cooked frozen buffalo wings?

Q. You know, the ones that come in a box by TGI Fridays. Every time I cook them they don't taste very well. I follow the directions and such but can never seem to get them just right.

Anyone have any tips on different ways to cook them or any tips on seasonings or anything? Any tips in general?

Thanks.

A. Oh yes, I do know the ones that you are talking about and have tasted that "blandness" no matter which flavor I pick! I did this test once and it worked for me. I set the oven temperature lower than what the box had suggested. I usually add about 15 minutes to the time and lowered my oven temp by 20 degrees. Remember, these are fully cooked anyways but the freezing process takes away alot of the flavor and you just need to revitalize it. With a lower oven temperature, you can toss these wings with some melted butter, just to get the juices flowing again, then I drizzle some EVOO, dust them with some seasonings, whatever you prefer and toss them in a bowl to fully cover the wings. Then, I put them onto a pan and cover them with tinfoil for the first 1/2 of the cooking time. Then, I take the foil off for the second half of the cooking time so they crispen up a bit. Although I think fresh is best, I hope this helps you to enjoy them!!!!! Good luck!
