<span>Cushing's disease can be diagnosed through the dexamethasone test. A person with Cushing's disease has high levels of cortisol hormone. The levels are so high that when they are given dexamethasone, their cortisol levels drop back to normal. When a normal person is given dexamethasone their cortisol levels drop too low.</span>
Prepare more of your own meals. Cooking more meals at home can help you take charge of what you’re eating and better monitor exactly what goes into your food.
Make the right changes. When cutting back on unhealthy foods in your diet, it’s important to replace them with healthy alternatives. Replacing dangerous trans fats with healthy fats (such as switching fried chicken for grilled fish) will make a positive difference to your health. Switching animal fats for refined carbohydrates, though (such as switching your breakfast bacon for a donut), won’t lower your risk for heart disease or improve your mood.
Simplify. Instead of being overly concerned with counting calories, think of your diet in terms of color, variety, and freshness. Focus on avoiding packaged and processed foods and opting for more fresh ingredients.
Read the labels. It’s important to be aware of what’s in your food as manufacturers often hide large amounts of sugar or unhealthy fats in packaged food, even food claiming to be healthy.
Focus on how you feel after eating. This will help foster healthy new habits and tastes. The more healthy food you eat, the better you’ll feel after a meal. The more junk food you eat, the more likely you are to feel uncomfortable, nauseous, or drained of energy.
Drink plenty of water. Water helps flush our systems of waste products and toxins, yet many people go through life dehydrated—causing tiredness, low energy, and headaches. It’s common to mistake thirst for hunger, so staying well hydrated will also help you make healthier food choices.

Answer:
<em>B. Allows blood to flow between the two ventricles </em>
<em>C. Allows blood to flow from the atria to the ventricle</em>
<em>D. Prevents blood from flowing into the atria when the ventricle pumps </em>
Explanation:
I reviewed this question using the "Roles of Your Four Heart Valves" and believe that out of the four, those two would be your best decision. Now, it says that it prevents blood from flowing BACK into the atria when blood pumps out of the ventricle, so for the second answer I had chosen it may be right or wrong since the answer didn't specify, but it should come up as correct.
answers that are <u>not correct: </u>
<em>A. Allows blood to flow between the two atria</em>
- I say this is wrong because the atria are connected and pump blood to the ventricles, and should pump between themselves. Now, whether that is what the answer is meaning or not, I would play it safe and not pick this one.
<em>Best Wishes!</em>
