The makers of a product called Red Copper Pan claim food will not stick to their copper-infused cookware, and they say the product defies scratches. Does it work? To test the Red Copper Pan, we turned to Chef Adam Glenn, owner of the Glenn restaurant in Charleston, Missouri.
Hernia Overview. A hernia occurs when the contents of a body cavity bulge out of the area where they are normally contained. These contents, usually portions of intestine or abdominal fatty tissue, are enclosed in the thin membrane that naturally lines the inside of the cavity.
A hernia is essentially a defect or hole in the muscle of the abdominal wall that serves to hold in the organs. According to the North Penn Hernia Institute, repetitive strain or stress to the muscles can cause a hernia and you can also be born with a weak abdominal wall. Bulges in the abdomen resulting from hernias must be repaired through surgery.
