TIPS & INFO
Al Zahfa Hospital Tips for Healthy Children and Families
Raising a family isn’t always easy. You are busy, and so are your children. There is a lot to do in little time. But the stakes are high. Today, many kids are overweight or obese. A healthy, active lifestyle can help maintain weight. It also can prevent health issues, such as diabetes, heart disease, asthma, and high blood pressure.
Can I trust my tap water?
It depends on where you live. Tap water safety varies a lot by country, city, and even neighborhood.
In general
Many places do not have reliably safe tap water for drinking without treatment.
Even where water is treated, old pipes, storage tanks, or intermittent supply can contaminate it.
Clear water ≠ safe water.
Is my microwave giving me cancer?
Short answer: No — your microwave is not giving you cancer.
Here’s why
How microwaves work
Microwaves use non-ionizing radiation
This type of radiation cannot damage DNA
Cancer is linked to ionizing radiation (like X-rays, gamma rays, nuclear radiation)
So the radiation from a microwave does not cause cancer.
How long am I contagious when I have the flu or a cold?
Colds
You’re usually contagious:
1–2 days before symptoms start
While you have symptoms
Most contagious in the first 2–3 days
Can remain contagious for up to 7 days
Children may spread it longer (10+ days)
