Physician's Desk Reference Looks at Nutritional Supplements
Another sign that dietary supplements are occupying increasing space in the medical marketplace. The folks who issue the "Physicians' Desk Reference" ('bible' of prescription medications) and the "PDR for Herbal Medicines," have now released the "PDR for Nutritional Supplements." It contains studies and information on over 300 products from calcium and DHEA to whey and yogurt.

Men Have Biological Clocks Too
For years, many prospective parents - and doctors as well - have blithely assumed that, if an older couple's baby has birth defects, it's most likely because of the woman's advancing age. New research uncovers that the risk of new mutations - those that haven't shown up in a family before - is four to five times greater for fathers age 45 and older than for those ages 20 to 25.

Uninsured with Chronic Diseases Face Disparities in Health Care
Millions of Americans who suffer from the most common chronic health problems - heart disease, hypertension, high cholesterol, arthritis and chronic back pain - face vast disparities in the care they receive, depending on whether or not they have insurance. Uninsured people with chronic health conditions: visited health care providers less often; were far less likely to have an ongoing relationship with a health care provider; were much more likely to report that they or a family member did not receive a doctor's care or prescription medicines due to the need to pay for food, clothing or housing; were much more likely to go without medicines that are essential to maintaining their health and functioning; and were twice as likely not to receive lab tests.

The Healer Within
The experts are constantly practicing toward successful quieting of the mind and body. This particular technique assures a genuine state of relaxation by actually involving the body parts. In "Progressive Relaxation, Option I" Dr. Roger Jahnke offers you a technique perfect for those of you who wish to tap the benefits of the self-applied methods but have little prior experience.

Mind Over Matter
There's a new breakthrough on the horizon that could be the single most important advance in this arena since the discovery of insulin. In "Baboon + Pig: and the potential future of diabetes control!" Barry Bittman, M.D. reports on a research project where a baboon was injected with specially encapsulated islet (insulin producing) cells from a pig's pancreas. In addition to not requiring insulin, the baboon has shown no signs of rejection. For Type I Diabetics and Type IIs who presently require insulin, this research may be a lifesaver.

Understanding Homeopathy
Involuntary urination is ironically a problem experienced at both ends of a person's life, both during infancy and aging. Older adults have difficulty with bladder control usually because of either urinary tract disease, nervous system dysfunction, allergic response, ruptured disk, or psychological stress. Women tend to experience involuntary urination after childbirth, surgery, or inflammation of the urethra, while men tend to get it if they have a prostate problem. In "Homeopathic Medicines For Involuntary Urination" Dana Ullman, M.P.H. explains the common causes of this condition, and outlines homeopathic remedies that may resolve the problem, rather than just eliminate the symptom.

Mind Boosters
The combination ginkgo biloba and ginseng extracts can promote fast, accurate thinking, improve short and long-term memory retention, and reduce mental fatigue. While previous research has documented the effects of ginkgo biloba on memory in older people, in the column "Herbal Combination Enhance Memory and Speed Thinking" Ray Sahelian, M.D. presents new research that clearly shows that this specific formulation enhanced mental performance in a younger healthy population.

Coffee drinkers may be surprised to learn that herbal coffee actually has nutritional benefits which help nourish and keep the body healthy.

Teeccino is the first herbal coffee on the market - a blend of herbs, grains, fruits and nuts that are roasted, ground and brewed just like coffee. Dark, rich, and full-bodied, Teeccino brings you all the satisfaction of a robust brew with no caffeine reaction. Teeccino tastes mildly sweet from dates and figs, with only 15 calories per cup.
