Blueberries And Spinach Are Seen As Food for Thought
With the U.S. population aging, and baby boomers approaching senior-citizen status in massive numbers, there is an increasing interest in finding ways to improve the lives of older people, not incidentally decreasing the cost of supporting the health of those new seniors. A study by university researchers - aided by some old, memory-challenged rats - indicates eating blueberries may help fight age-related memory loss in rodents and, by extension, perhaps in humans. Cooked blueberries, as in a blueberry pie, might be good for you. Eating strawberries and spinach may have similar benefits.

The Healer Within
The presence of special breathing practices in the ancient cultures has always been a mystery to people in the Western world.

Following the emptying of the lungs on the exhalation, expel three additional breaths.
