Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Stay hydrated Eat high fiber foods. Exercise for 30 minutes each day. Take bowel movements as soon as you feel the urge to go. See your doctor if you still experience constipation.

Answer: . Staying hydrated helps avoid constipation because it helps keep your system moving. Drink at least 8 servings of 8 fluid ounces (240 mL) of fluids each day. Although it’s best to focus on water, remember that other fluids also help keep you hydrated, including items like soups and tea.  If you are very active to the point of sweating, you should drink more fluids to keep yourself hydrated. Additional fluids, such as water or sports drinks, will replenish the fluids you lost while sweating. Keep in mind that caffeine and alcohol can dehydrate you. A high fiber diet can help you avoid constipation because it keeps your digestive system moving. Women should eat 25 grams (0.88 oz) of fiber per day.  Excellent sources of fiber include vegetables and fruits, especially greens and produce with the skin on. Whole grains and legumes, such as beans, lentils, peas, and chickpeas, are also high in fiber. Fiber also helps you feel fuller longer, which can help you maintain a healthy weight. Even light exercise provides benefits for your body. Staying active helps keep your stool moving through your body, which prevents constipation. Choose cardio exercise that matches your current fitness level. If you're starting a new exercise program, talk to your doctor, first. Here are a few great options:  Walking Dancing Aerobics Swimming Jogging When you feel the urge to go, it’s important that you use the restroom immediately. Holding your bowel movements can lead to constipation. At times, it may be inconvenient to go, but your health is what’s important. However, it’s important not to strain while trying to go. If your body isn’t ready for a bowel movement, don’t try to force one. Sometimes constipation can be caused by nerve issues, pelvic floor dysfunction, and certain medications. When this is the case, your doctor can help you identify ways to relieve your constipation, such as taking laxatives or doing your Kegel exercises. Don’t attempt to relieve your constipation using laxatives or other treatments until you’ve gotten approval from your doctor. Since it's difficult to know the cause of your symptoms, taking unapproved medication can make your condition worsen.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Bring someone who can play the guitar if you don't know how. Consider the differences in tone of different wood types. Play the guitar. Check some of the important quality aspects of the guitar. Check for damage if you're going with a used guitar.

Answer: If you're a beginner to playing guitar, you might want to consider bringing a friend along to the store. Especially if you're buying a used guitar, a friend who has some experience with guitars will help you make a good decision. If you don't have a friend knowledgeable in guitars with you when you go to the store, you can also ask someone who works at the store for help. The people working at the music shop will likely have a wealth of information on guitars and can help you find a guitar that's right for you. The type of wood that the guitar is made out of will affect how it sounds. Knowing what you want out of your guitar's tone will help you make a decision because then you can look for the wood type that best suites you. Some of the common wood types are:  Spruce is the most common type of material for acoustic guitars. It has a bright tone and remains clear even when played loudly. Cedar is favored by finger pickers because it delivers warm, rich tones that work well with fast picking. Mahogany has a strong sound that some describe as punchy. It is often used by blues players. Maple is very transparent and doesn't color the tone of the strings very much. Rosewood has an overall darker tone, with rich highs and mids and strong lows. Ultimately, it will be difficult to decide whether a guitar is right for you without playing it a while. This is why shopping in person is preferable to online shopping. Most guitar store owners understand this, and they will allow you to play any guitar you're interested in. There are many factors to look at when inspecting a guitar. Of course overall comfortability and how it sounds to you are important, but look for some of these things as well:  Knock on the guitar's body. An echoing sound usually means it will have greater bass, if a less echoing sound is produced it will normally sound bright. Check the action height. This is how far the strings are from the fretboard. The higher the action, the more difficult it will be to play. Look for a guitar with low, even action. Check the intonation. This means how well the guitar is tuned up and down the neck. Check this by playing an open D chord and then the same chord on the 14th fret. If it sounds out of tune, there may be a problem. Buying a used acoustic guitar is a great way to find a balance between quality and price. But if you do buy used, you should spend some extra time inspecting the guitar before you buy it. The first thing you should do is look for any obvious signs of damage on the body and neck. Small cracks and chips are okay, big ones are not.  Play every note on the fretboard and listen for rattling or dead spots. Rattling could be sign that the bridge is loose and dead spots could be sign that the fretboard needs work. Look at the neck from the side. It should be practically straight. A little bowing is okay, but a lot is not. Where the neck connects with the body should be flush, and if you push gently on the neck, it shouldn't give at all. Gently push down on the body, all around. Listen for creaking, which could be a sign that the glue on the braces inside the guitar is loose.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Strain the sour mash through a cheesecloth. Pour the strained mash liquid into the pressure cooker. Position the copper tubing to create a condenser. Turn on the burner under the pressure cooker. Transfer the alcohol to jars.

Answer:
Place the cloth over the bucket, then tip the bucket over a clean bucket or pot. You may also use a screen wire or a clean white t-shirt to strain the mash. Clamp down the lid and place it on a stovetop burner. You may discard the solids that you strained out with the cheesecloth. Run the copper tubing run from the lid (or vent) of the pressure cooker to a sink filled with cold water. Coil the middle of the copper tubing in the cold water, then run the other end of the tube over the edge of the sink to a clean container on the floor. Let the contents heat to exactly 177 °F (80 °C) and no more. This is the approximate boiling point of grain alcohol. As the pressure cooker heats, the alcohol turns into ethanol steam, travels through the condensing tube to cool. The resulting liquid drips into the container on the floor. That's the moonshine.  The liquid that comes out of the copper tube before the cooker reaches 177 °F (80 °C) contains methanol, which becomes steam at a lower temperature than ethanol. This low-boiling liquid must be discarded. Methanol attacks the optic nerves when consumed. You'll probably have to discard at least two ounces of liquid before the ethanol, which can actually be consumed, begins to emerge. Keep monitoring the temperature and collecting alcohol until the temperature rises above or drops below 177 °F  (80 °C). You should be able to collect about 2 gallons (7.6 L) of liquid. Finished moonshine is between 180 and 190 proof (90 to 95%) - practically pure grain alcohol. To make this product drinkable, responsible brewers cut it to half strength by mixing with pure spring water.
