Summarize the following:
Alcohol is very harmful to the liver and, with prolonged drinking, can shut the liver down entirely. When alcohol is ingested it goes directly to the bloodstream. All the blood is then received and filtered in the kidney. It is now the liver's job to filter all the toxic waste in the body, including toxins from alcohol. This, over time, can create serious liver damage. The more damaged your liver is, the more SGPT can leak out of its cells and into your blood. Alcohol consumption has been a major contributor to liver diseases such as fatty liver, liver cirrhosis, and hepatitis. Exercise self-discipline to avoid aggravating diseases caused by too much alcohol consumption. This will help in decreasing SGPT from leaking into your blood stream. Simple exercises such as brisk walking, jogging, and swimming can improve your overall health in addition to helping your liver stay healthy. Staying active excretes toxins in the body through sweating. It also helps burn fats, keeping you trim. Exercise will produce more lean muscles, healthy organs – including your liver – and keep your body in tip-top condition. The fewer toxins your liver has to clean up, the more energy it can dedicate to strengthening its cells. At least 30 minutes of daily exercise can make a difference in your liver’s health. When toxins are excreted it reduces the amount of work that the liver will be doing, thus preventing increased SGPT levels. . Smoke from cigarettes contains toxins like nicotine and ammonia. When you are exposed to these toxins, they stick to your skin and will be absorbed, giving the liver another workload to filter, getting rid of all the toxins in your body. It’s best to avoid secondhand smoke, too, as this has similar effects. Not only is it bad for your SGPT levels, but it’s bad for your heart, lungs, kidneys, skin, hair and nails, too. It also causes those around you undue discomfort. If your SGPT levels aren’t enough, do it for these reasons instead. Smoke from air pollution contains fumes, gasoline, and ammonia, amongst other harmful chemicals that have dissipated in the air. If you live or work around an environment where you are constantly exposed to these toxins, reduce your exposure as much as possible. These toxins may leak through your skin, causing liver damage and raising your SGPT levels. If you must be around toxic fumes, wear long sleeves, pants, a mask, and gloves at all times. The more precautions you take, the healthier you’ll be – especially in the long-term. If you struggle with weight issues, you may be at risk of developing fatty liver, which can lead to elevated SGPT levels. Talk to your doctor about safe and effective ways to manage your weight, or ask them to refer you to a registered dietitian. For most people, the safest and most effective way to lose weight is to exercise and eat reasonable portions of healthy, unprocessed foods. Talk to your doctor about what types of diet and exercise are healthy and appropriate for you.

summary: Stop drinking alcoholic beverages. Get daily exercise. Quit smoking Prevent exposure to other harmful chemicals, too. Work on losing weight if you are overweight or obese.


Summarize the following:
If you're trying to deal with persistent gossips take them aside individually and discuss the issue. Especially if you're someone in a position of authority, you might need to take care of a situation with gossiping.  Deal with chronic gossipers. Figure out who they are and try to avoid them. If you can't avoid them, don't give them the satisfaction of imparting information to you. When they try to gossip, change the subject, or get away from them. Unlike people who gossip every once in a while, chronic gossipers are unlikely to be deterred by a simple talking to. For example: if Dan, your brother-in-law, constantly discusses your siblings around you and talks about how his sister is a harpy and his brother is a thief, take him aside and ask him what the problem is with your siblings. Tell him that it isn't appropriate to pass along information about them to other people. If there is a problem (your brother actually has stolen something from him, for example), help to deal with it. Remember that men are just as likely to gossip as women, even if it isn't often called gossip, but men can pass harmful or inaccurate information, too. When someone comes to you with a juicy bit of harmful gossip, find a way to deflect the situation, or make the gossiper aware of the harmful nature of what they're saying.  Some ways to gently turn the attention towards the harmful nature of gossip: "Let's look at this from X's point of view," (X being the subject of the gossip) "Why do you talk about X so much?" or "Hey, maybe we could find a way to fix this" try to find a way to get to the bottom of the gossiper's issue with the person they are spreading rumors about. If they are a chronic gossiper, you're probably going to have to shut them down a little more forcefully. Sometimes you just have to move away from negative gossiping and focus on something more positive. try to do this without blaming the gossiper, because that can turn their ire on you.  When they start gossiping, say something like "Hey, we should plan what we're going to this afternoon after work." They usually will forget about it. You can also say something like "This conversation has gotten really negative about X. Let's talk about something more positive" (especially if the subject of the gossip is negative). In the end, if you can't turn the topic of the conversation, it's best to walk away or explain that you're not interested in hearing that type of gossip. You may irritate the person gossiping and they might say things about you, which are welcome to contradict. However, it might be best simply to not engage with that type of situation.  For example, you could say something like "Hey, I'm not interested in hearing unsubstantiated rumors about so-and-so," or "I don't really care what X's sexuality is." If you simply don't want to make a big deal out of the situation, you could make an excuse "I have to get back to work" or "I have to go home," etc.

summary: Privately address specific perpetrators. Find an appropriate response. Change the subject. Disengage.


Summarize the following:
Get out a small bucket and pour 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of gentle dishwashing soap into it. Use a dishwashing soap that will cut through grease and grime. Pour 1 gallon (3.8 liters) of hot water into the bucket. Stir the mixture until it's soapy and combined. Dip a sponge or soft cloth into the soapy cleaning solution. Wipe the solution along the bottom and sides of the enamel tub. Gently scrub the tub to loosen any grime or soap deposits. Avoid using sponges that have an abrasive side, which could damage the enamel. Fill a clean bucket with clean water and pour it over the soapy tub to rinse it. You may need to fill the bucket a few times to remove all of the soapy residue. Wipe the tub dry.  You could also turn on the shower and direct the nozzle to rinse away the soap. If your shower head is a handheld model, this is the easiest way to rinse the bathtub. Since you'll be drying the tub immediately, you can use any temperature of water to rinse it. Remember to clean your tub at least once a week or more, if you use it more frequently. If you keep the enamel tub clean on a regular basis, it's less likely to develop stains or limescale buildup.
summary: Mix hot water and liquid dishwashing soap. Rub the cleaning solution over the entire tub. Rinse the tub with clean water. Clean the enamel tub every week.
