Can Ginkgo Biloba Supplements Protect Your Brain Prevention

Ginkgo biloba, a supplement that’s been used for thousands of years by practitioners of herbal medicine, is still used today by many Americans hoping to boost their brainpower and memory. But according to new research from the UK, Ginkgo biloba doesn’t have any effect at all. “From our analysis, there is no inkling that Ginkgo biloba would make any difference whatsoever,” says lead study author Keith Laws, PhD, a professor of cognitive neuropsychology at the University of Hertfordshire....

Tomorrow marks the start of Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s groundbreaking soda ban, which forbids the sale of sugary drinks greater than 16 ounces across the city. But even if you don’t drink soda (or limit your sipping to fewer than 16 ounces), you’re not necessarily immune to the ban. According to The New York Times, the law also impacts a beverage beloved among most in the city: coffee....

Declining Estrogen Levels Not Shown To Affect Mood Prevention

Previous research has shown a tenuous link between estradiol—one form of estrogen—and depression in older post-menopausal females. “There is a lot of thought that estrogen has an important role with mood for women, with higher levels being associated with better mood,” says lead study author Victor Henderson, MD. “But the clinical data behind that is really not very strong.” In his new study, Dr. Henderson and his team compared reproductive hormone levels in women who’d recently gone through menopause (less than 6 years before), and those who’d made the transition more than a decade prior....

No wonder many women report signs of disordered eating behavior—like excessively counting calories or working out just to burn off food—even if they never develop a full-blown disorder such as anorexia or bulimia....

Omega was founded on the holistic worldview that the well-being of each of us is deeply connected to the well-being of all living things. We believe that when women are valued, respected, and empowered, everybody benefits—girls and boys, women and men. When feminine and masculine principles are equally esteemed, everything changes. We believe that violence, greed, and injustice are not “just the way it is.” A more balanced blend of voices and perspectives will create a safer and wiser way of living together on our beautiful planet....

Don T Ignore These Lyme Disease Symptoms Prevention

Lyme disease is even more widespread than we originally thought. Last August, the Centers for Disease Control upped its estimate of annual Lyme cases from 30,000 to 300,000 (check out this map of Lyme outbreaks). Ticks are hungriest (and smallest) from June through early August. This is known as the nymph stage, when ticks can be smaller than the head of a pin. This makes them even harder than usual to spot—especially since they often feed in out-of-the-way areas like the groin, armpits, and scalp....

Earliest Asthma Attack Warning Sign Prevention

In a study of 113 people with asthma, researchers at the Hillel Yaffe Medical Center in Israel found that those who missed the shortness-of-breath signal made more trips to the ER and had more hospital stays, more near-fatal asthma attacks, and a higher risk of death. “If you can’t perceive that breathing is difficult, you’re less likely to reach for your inhaler, call your doctor, or get to the hospital in time to stop a severe attack,” says researcher Paltiel Weiner, MD....
