Q: Chances are, you've got plenty of items sitting around on the shelves of your pantry just waiting to be put to use. A bottle of ordinary cooking oil like olive or canola oil, for example, will bust up even the most difficult stickers. You could even use peanut butter or mayonnaise to achieve the same effect! A tablespoon of baking soda can up the unsticking power of oil-based products. These types of substances tend to work best on smooth, hard surfaces that aren't at risk of becoming darkened or discolored by oils. Use a clean cloth to soak up a quarter-sized amount of oil and rub it over the entire surface. If the product is especially thick, it may help to pick up a flexible utensil like a rubber spatula or brush that will allow you to spread it around exactly where you need it. Avoid pouring thinner oils directly onto the surface. It can be easy to oversaturate it this way. Little by little, it will coat the bonds between the adhesive and the sticking surface and the sticker will begin to slip. The longer you allow it to take effect, the better the outcome will be. Wipe the excess oil away with a paper towel when time is up. Newer stickers may even come unfastened before you ever touch them. If you used a thicker oily substance, such as peanut butter, you may need to use a heavier towel or washcloth to expose the sticker underneath. Scrape up the outer edge with your fingernail, peeling it back gradually until it's free. A soft kitchen sponge may come in handy for breaking up the last few bits of adhesive. By this point, it will likely have been reduced to a papery goop, so you shouldn't have too much trouble. Wipe the area clean with a towel and enjoy your new sticker-free surface! Eliminate any remaining patches of residue by blotting the spot with the corner of a towel soaked in oil. A light dusting of cornstarch or baby powder can absorb leftover oil coating the sticker surface.
A: Grab a product with a high oil content. Smear the oil onto the sticker. Leave the oil in place for 10-20 minutes. Pull or scrub the sticker away.

Q: Older teenagers and adults need quite a bit of vitamin B12 in their daily meals. Try to track your intake and get as much vitamin B12 as you need per day to stay healthy. You can track the amount of nutrients you get online or on a health app. Children who are between 4 and 8 years old need about 1.2 mcg of vitamin B12, while children who are 9 to 13 need about 1.8 mcg of vitamin B12. Assist your child in getting enough vitamins and minerals through a healthy, balanced diet. Between 0 to 6 months, babies need about 0.4 mcg of vitamin B12 per day. From 7 to 12 months, they need 0.5 mcg per day, and from 1 to 3 years, it bumps up to 0.9 mcg per day. During pregnancy, vitamin B12 can be critically important for the development of a healthy baby. If you do not get enough vitamin B12 while pregnant, your child could suffer from developmental delays, failure to thrive, neural tube defects, megaloblastic anemia, and movement disorders. Prenatal vitamins usually contain vitamin B12. Check the label on your vitamins to see how much they contain.
A: Get 2.4 mcg of vitamin B12 per day if you are over 14 years old. Make sure your kids get about 1.4 mcg of B12 per day. Feed your infants and toddlers about 0.5 mcg of B12 per day. Increase your B12 consumption to 2.8 mcg if you are pregnant.

Q: You're going to be completing a pretty rigorous academic program for the next 15 years or so, so it's best to develop the work ethnic now. When you're used to studying and gettin' good at the book learning, you'll get less stressed out when med school rolls around. And those good grades will get you into a better undergrad program which will, in turn, get you into a better medical school. Those good grades are what's going to get you an internship and a residency -- without them, the doors won't open for you. You may think going pre-med is your only option, but it's actually quite the opposite: some schools actually encourage you not to go pre-med. As long as you get the core requirements in, they suggest doing something you enjoy. Med school is bad enough; don't make it four years longer! It's a good idea to major in biology, chemistry, physics, or even English (it's a large part of the MCAT -- just make sure your electives are science-based). The more balanced out you are, the better you'll do in the future. If you go pre-med and change your mind (which loads of people do), you're up a creek without a paddle. That's why it's better to major in biology and the like. If you live in the UK, take the UKCAT or BMAT. Taking this exam as early as possible will ensure that you have time to retake it if you don't do as well as you'd like. Different schools have different minimum scores for admission, so check with the schools you're considering to see if your MCAT score is high enough. It's best to take the MCAT in your junior or early senior year. Be sure to study, study, study -- this score will determine what schools take you seriously when you apply. Most medical schools like to see a solid background in life sciences and sturdy grades. Keep them as high as possible and try to get some experience in a research lab if you can. The more practical experience you have going in, the better. And you'll get an idea if this is indeed the path for you! If you already graduated but didn't major in the sciences, there's still hope. Most people who've found their calling later in life just take a few classes post-baccalaureate to pad their transcripts and then apply. It is doable!
A: Focus on your grades during high school. Go to a four-year, reputable university for your undergrad. Take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). Earn your bachelor's degree.

Q: If possible, avoid being around someone who has the flu. Stay away from sick friends or neighbors until they're well. Stay out of crowds during the peak of flu season, in possible being in public transportation, auditoriums, and places where people congregate make it easy for flu to spread. Stay home from work or school if you're sick so you don't contaminate others. You can return to school or work 24 hours after your fever returns to normal, but continue to practice good hand washing hygiene. If someone in your household is sick, consider sleeping in a different room from them if you usually share a bedroom. Be sure to wash your hands after you interact with them, and clean any cups, cutlery, or dishes they use thoroughly. People can still be contagious for up to a week after they're feeling better. Use disinfecting sprays or wipes to clean surfaces that can harbor flu germs. Clean your bathrooms, bedroom surfaces, wood and glass tables, office desks, and other areas that you use or touch often. Keep a container of disinfecting wipes at your office, and wipe down your desk, phone, and keyboard every morning before you start work. Phones harbor many germs because you use them so often and they sit around in lots of places, exposed to viruses. Use a disinfecting wipe or slightly soapy rag to carefully clean your phone every other day during flu season. Of course, do not submerge your phone in water. Because you will be washing your hands more frequently, you will need to change your communal towels more often so that they do not remain damp and become a vector for disease. Replace the towel every couple days or if it is damp when you go to reuse it. Keep hand towels separate so that each family member has their own towel.
A:
Avoid people who are sick. Take precautions around sick family members. Clean your home and workspace regularly. Sanitize your phone. Change your hand towels often.
