How often should I reapply sunscreen during the summer?

This is kind of a tricky question, since it depends on how long you'll be outside and the activity you're doing (running, water sport, laying out, etc.).

It's important to know to always apply sunscreen 15-20 minutes before sun exposure. After you've been outside, you'll want to consider reapplying every one to two hours.

What are some ways to reduce cholesterol?

More than 100 million Americans have high cholesterol, which could lead to some serious health issues down the line.

If you have high cholesterol, you might want to consider trying statins, Niacin, changing your diet, and exercise.
