Jet Lag: Melatonin Versus Ambien
"Ambien (zolpidem) is a popular sleeping pill. A recent double-blind
placebo-controlled study compared the supplement melatonin against Ambien to
see which was the best option for alleviating jet lag.
This trial enrolled 137 individuals who were traveling from Switzerland to the
United States, remaining there for at least 1 week, and then returning home on a
red-eye flight. Participants were given one of four possible treatments: melatonin
(5 mg), Ambien (10 mg), melatonin plus Ambien, or placebo. The assigned
treatment was given once on the nighttime return flight to Switzerland, and then at
bedtime for 4 consecutive days.
The results showed that Ambien was the most effective of the four treatment
options. It dramatically improved sleep quality and reduced overall jet lag
discomfort. Combination therapy with melatonin and Ambien was also effective
but to a slightly lesser extent. Melatonin was not as effective as the Ambien or
combination therapy, but it was definitely more effective than placebo."

*** SHORT HEALTH/SAFETY TIPS FOR THE WEEK ***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
HERNIA - "When pains or cramp happen in the lower abdominal area, it may be a hernia or other muscle discomfort and weakness. There are about 5 million hernia sufferers in the US, only about 700,000 actively search for treatment, because there is no recognized medication for hernias except hiatus hernia (heart-burns, a stomach problem), and the standard operations are usually painful and sometimes not very effective. Hawthornia is a 100% natural herbal formula well proven in China to be very effective to hernia and other related problems caused by general weakness or over-exercises. Hawthornia relieves most symptoms of groin, femoral and inguinal hernias, and some of umbilical hernia. It works on the principle to strengthen the support muscles for internal organs, such as intestine, so that the organs won't fall through any hole or opening in the body diaphragm."

PSORIASIS - "Those who suffer from Psoriasis often also experience frustration,
and often embarrassment. This condition is typically not a pretty sight.    During normal skin production, skin cells begin at the bottom  layer of skin. As they mature, they rise up from the bottom layer to the top layer (called the epidermis). In a healthy body this process should take about 28 days.  About 2% of the population in both the United States and Europe battle with a skin disease called Psoriasis. It occurs when the skin cells do not produce normally. Typically psoriasis is   recognized by large patches of red, inflamed skin having a  silvery, scaly surface. Although this condition is not contagious, heredity is a significant factor."
