Study Finds Drug Errors at Hospitals
More than 40 potentially harmful drug errors daily were found on average in hospitals in a new study.

Rapid, Safe Weight-Loss Without Diets, Pills Or Exercise
The Magic Key --
A new way to lose weight and keep it off, developed by a famous psychologist who knows the pain of obesity personally.
Dr. Hendricks: "By age thirteen I was obese, but by twenty-four I was more than 100 pounds overweight. My life was dominated by the pain of being fat. I tried everything, but nothing helped until one day that changed my life: I found the Magic Key and my struggle finally ended. I lost over a hundred pounds and never gained it back."
The Magic Key -- It's like nothing you've ever tried.

Dr. Galland's Integrated Medicine
A large body of research over the past ninety years has demonstrated the preventive value of eating foods fermented with Lactobacilli or their cousins, Bifidobacteria. In "Friendly Bacteria" Leo Galland, M.D. explains how eating these friendly bacteria prevents intestinal infection and preserves intestinal permeability.

Mind Body Health
Most medical care today is provided via the brief office doctor visits. This one-to-one model often falls short of meeting patients' real needs. In "Rethinking the Physician Visit" David S. Sobel, M.D. asks "What if you could have a full two-hour visit with your physician every month and learn not only from your doctor, but from other members of the health care team as well as from other patients with similar problems?"

Keeping Fit
Sixty minutes of exploring different walking trails in your local state park is a delightful alternative to a 30 minutes jog around the track. In "Park Season" Wayne Westcott, Ph.D. describes how a fast walk up and down the undulating trails provides an excellent exercise session. Keep your attention focused on the environment rather than on your watch.

Integrative Dentistry
In "Junk Food and the Oral Disease Connection" Flora Parsa Stay, D.D.S. expresses her concern about the major impact on our children's oral health because of the excessive fat and sugar in the fast-food and junk foods they are getting at school. The teeth and gums are a living example of the old saying "you are what you eat." Maybe we should teach "we are what we are tomorrow, by what we eat today."
