Health Tips of the Week
- Migraine sufferers are twice as likely to have heart attacks as people without migraines.
- A recent review has found that depression does not always lead to memory problems or difficulties concentrating.
- A new national study suggests that preschool-aged children are likely to have a lower risk for obesity if they regularly engage in one or more of three specific household routines: eating dinner as a family, getting adequate sleep and limiting their weekday television viewing time.
- A fictional television drama may be more effective in persuading young women to use birth control than a news-format program on the same issue according to a new study from Ohio State Univ.
- A University of Adelaide forensic pathologist has sounded a worldwide warning of the potential lethal dangers of herbal medicines if taken in large quantities, injected, or combined with prescription drugs. “There’s a false perception that herbal remedies are safer than manufactured medicines, when in fact many contain potentially lethal concentrations of arsenic, mercury and lead,” according to the lead author of this study. For example, St John’s Wort can reduce the effects of warfarin and cause intermenstrual bleeding in women taking the oral contraceptive pill. Gingko and garlic also increase the risk of bleeding with anticoagulants and certain herbal remedies such as Borage Oil and Evening Primrose Oil lower the seizure threshold in epileptics. Make sure to tell your doctor everything you are taking, especially before surgery.
- Drinking as little as two soft drinks a week appears to nearly double the risk of getting pancreatic cancer.
- What color is your illness? Using a color wheel to diagnose depression could be a helpful tool, especially for non-communicative patients and children. Depressed people tend to choose gray while happy people favor yellow.
- A Mediterranean diet may help people avoid the small areas of brain damage that can lead to problems with thinking and memory according to a study by the American Academy of Neurology.
- Drinking milk during pregnancy may help reduce your baby’s chances of developing multiple sclerosis (MS) as an adult.
