A new study from Brigham Young University suggests that young married couples who exercise together report better communication and conflict resolution than those who do not. While the benefits of individual exercise are also present, shared activities show a slightly stronger, though not statistically significant, association with positive relationship outcomes. Walking was the most common shared activity.
Researchers at Brigham Young University have studied the effectiveness of ingredients in over-the-counter cold medications for symptom relief. They recommend dextromethorphan for coughs, pseudoephedrine for congested sinuses, and antihistamines for runny noses, with specific suggestions for nighttime and daytime use. They caution against overdoing acetaminophen or ibuprofen, especially if they are also present in cold medications, and emphasize the importance of paying attention to the ingredient panel. The advice is intended for adults and not for pregnant women, the elderly, or children, who require medications formulated for their age group.
