I've heard that juice is too high in sugar and should be avoided. Is that true?

Get Smart about Digestive Health with Carolyn O'Neil
Fruit juices offer great taste and immense health benefits at the same time. While it is important to limit overall sugar intake and eat a balanced diet, the properties of 100% fruit juice like PlumSmart are essential to overall health. Beverages that contain 100% juice are considered nutritionally rich or nutrient-dense foods since they offer multiple nutrients in each serving. One eight-ounce serving of 100% juice, like PlumSmart, counts as a fruit serving.

I've heard Cockers described as hyper, nervous, or high strung. Is that true?

Frequently Asked Questions - Zim Family Cocker Spaniels
My experience has been that the more time a Cocker gets to spend with his owner, the calmer and happier he will be. The most mellow Cockers I have ever met have been owned by retired people who have the luxury of having the dog with them almost constantly. The most agitated Cockers I've known have been banished to the back yard all day while all the humans in the family are at work or at school. It drives the dog nuts... they crave human companionship.

Should refined sugar be avoided?

The Vegetarian Society of El Paso
Sugar, a natural constituent of fruits and vegetables, is present in every diet. But excess sugar represents empty calories that fill you up, causing you to avoid nutritious foods.

I've heard they're nervous, high-strung dogs. Is that true?

The Chihuahua FAQ
Yes, they are high-strung dogs. I define "high-strung" as follows: barks easily, does not adapt easily to change in environment, is suspicious of strangers and will growl at them, and flips in circles and jumps around when excited (like when you come home after a five-minute absence, for instance). However, with the person that they have bonded with (i.e., their master[s]), they do not display most of these characteristics; infact, they display radically different personalities.

Jax, Massachusetts, USA: My gyn-oncologist warned me that I might get "post-surgical" depression. What surprised me was how good I felt mentally in the weeks right after surgery.

In my case, there was none, and my radical hysterectomy was considered curative. I was one happy recovering surgical patient! I returned to work six weeks after my surgery.

But I've heard that Splenda has chlorine in it! Is this true?

We have heard this confusion about Splenda (sucralose) many times.
