Co Q10 helps prevent premature aging
CO Q10 (Co-Enzyme Q10) is a vitamin-like substance naturally found in practically all cells in the body. It is an essential component of the energy producing unit of the cells, and is involved in the manufacture of the energy needed for all body processes. Its role is similar to that of a spark plug in a car engine; without the initial spark, the body cannot function. With insufficient Co Q10, the body may not be able to function at peak performance.

Oxford 'Heart Protection Study' Proves Antioxidants Safe
Six years of testing on more than 20,000 people at risk for coronary heart disease proved the safety of antioxidant vitamins E, C and beta-carotene (a form of vitamin A) for this special population, which includes smokers and those at risk for stroke. This highly-focused, exhaustive study supports a conclusion that people taking statin-based heart medication may safely supplement their diet with antioxidant vitamins, since the study did not produce any evidence of antioxidants interfering with prescription heart medication.

Healthy diet a factor in reducing cancer risk
Stop worrying about each and every cancer risk you hear about. While many aspects of our every day diet are linked to minor increases or decreases in cancer risk, the overall balance of foods actually seems to have the greater effect. Establishing a low fat diet with an abundance of fruits, vegetables and whole-grain foods is recommended to lower cancer risk and promote overall health. A healthy diet can be made fun by trying different fruits and vegetables, as variety is the best assurance of getting various vitamins and minerals. Stop counting calories and focus on balancing higher fat treats with more nutritious low fat selections.

Dr. Galland's Integrated Medicine
Although the body readily makes most of the fat that it needs from dietary starch or sugar, humans lack the ability to make essential fatty acids (EFAs) and must get them in food. EFAs are found in all foods but are most abundant in certain oils, according to Dr. Leo Galland in "Essential Fatty Acids--The Key To Health." They come in two distinct families, based upon their chemical structure. The two EFA families are not interchangeable and, in fact, tend to compete with one another in the body's metabolic pathways.

Mind Body Health Newsletter
Your decision about whether or not to have non-emergency surgery will be influenced by your expectations and understanding as well as the desires and biases of your surgeon. What patient can resist an enthusiastic surgeon? Apparently, the answer is other physicians, reports Dr. David Sobel in "Physicians Have Fewer Surgeries." When faced with a surgical decision, who better to be than a physician? You would be among the best informed consumers. You would be well aware of the risks, benefits, and alternatives to the proposed procedure. And, according to the results of a study, you would be less likely to have surgery at all.

Keeping Fit
Downhill skiing is a very physically demanding activity.

Echoes of Silence
Have you ever sat with your feet dangling in the cosmic abyss and been consumed by a presence, a force, an encompassing state of being? Love is the discovery we make as we engage in spiritual inquiry. In "The Cosmic Abyss" Robert Rabbin relates a moving story that reminds us that as we open to and embrace this power, this presence of love, we forge a new alliance with life and with work. We can depend upon that power to take us forward, one step at a time, into clear and impeccable decisions.

Healthy Woman Update
Anorexia nervosa and bulimia are two kinds of eating disorders. Anorexia nervosa is a form of self-starvation. Bulimia is eating large amounts of foods (binging) and then forcing oneself to throw up or using laxatives and water pills to get rid of what was overeaten (purging). In "Eating Disorders" the American Institute of Preventive Medicine has compiled important information on symptoms, treatment and prevention, along with guidelines for determining when professional help is needed.
