  Does spicy food help you deal with hot temperatures?

  0 1 For religious reasons, some Buddhists avoid onions and garlic, basically these stimulating foods, since they increase one's sexual desire when eaten cooked or anger when eaten raw. This belief goes for Transcendental Meditation followers which follow Ayurveda. The home town of TM--Fairfield, IA--has plenty of Indian food but without spiciness. If you're feeling sexually unmotivated due to the heat, I would suggest eating more spicy food. I did note in Southern Vietnam, the food was not spicy but really much more sweet and salty. It was actually surprisingly bland. And another exception to the "closer to the equator" rule are Hawaiian (and Polynesian?) dishes, which really aren't spicy but often quite sweet. Guess where teriyaki was invented? Elias Ross answered in Food & Drink over 2 years ago Answer, comment & read 11 more answers »

  What are the chances of the giant mound of dust left by the plumber knocking a hole in my wall containing a dangerous amount of lead?

  1 0 Drywall's been around for over 50 years. Having read up on this when I owned an old house, mostly the danger from lead paint is from ingestion. And this danger is mostly to little kids. So I would say the danger is slight unless you're licking the floors. A vacuum does a much better job than a broom which just kicks up fine dust. Wikipedia explains how to properly clean the site, just search for "lead paint". Elias Ross answered in Health & Fitness over 2 years ago Answer, comment & read 4 more answers »
