Scientists link vitamin D, schizophrenia
"Australian scientists may have found a reason why people with schizophrenia are more likely to be born in winter or spring.  For the past 80 years, researchers around the world have been puzzled by the finding that seasonal changes seem to play a part in the disorder which affects about one in 100 people.  Queensland researchers believe vitamin D and sun exposure during pregnancy may be responsible."

*** SHORT HEALTH/SAFETY TIPS FOR THE WEEK ***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

PROSTATE- "Prostatitis, also known as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH, is an inflammation of the prostate gland, which is located under the bladder and in front of the rectum. A common cause is a bacterial infection spread from the urethra or other part of the body carried through the blood. There are several other contributing factors; intermittent sexual contact, venereal disease, the use of a urinary catheter, a zinc deficiency, prolonged use of antihistamines and decongestants, exposure to pesticides and heavy metals, stress, and even high cholesterol levels are believed to promote prostate enlargement."

STICHES - "1.  It is important that you avoid any contact with water for the first 2 days following surgery.
2. For the next three days,(3-5) it is important to not soak in water. You may take a shower but avoid leaving the stitched area in the path of the direct stream of water. Avoid baths and swimming."

ROLFING- "Rolfing is the nickname given to a form of body work and movement education pioneered from the work of Dr. Ida Rolf. She called it 'structural integration', which is a process of realigning the body through soft tissue manipulation."  (To read the complete article entitled:  Rolfing - The whole body approach to wellbeing  By Megan Arnel- Certified Rolfing Practitioner, go to)

*** BOOK REVIEW-- Women, Weight and Hormones - written by Elizabeth Lee Vliet MD ***

>From Publishers Weekly
Vliet (Screaming to Be Heard: Hormone Connections Women Suspect... and Doctors Still Ignore) is the founder and director of HER Place, which has several medical centers specializing in hormone evaluations for menopausal women. Very detailed and somewhat overwritten for women just interested in losing weight, her second book presents an array of information on hormone found in the body. Vliet explains how estrogen and progesterone levels change and interact at midlife to slow female metabolism, which may lead to weight gain. But, she argues, a combination of hormonal balance, healthy eating, exercise and improved self-esteem can reverse this pattern.

Before Vliet gets to the cornerstone of her "meal action plan" (MAP), which will interest many women, the reader must plow through complicated explanations of the biological changes that occur before, during and after menopause. Vliet believes that women should be tested for hormone levels in their 20s and 30s, so that these baseline results can be used to adjust levels at midlife to prevent excessive weight gain. (She advocates hormonal supplements based on individual need.) Based on her daily dietary recommendations of 35% protein, 30% fat and 35% carbohydrates, Vliet provides 14 days of MAP meal plans. Although much of her diet and exercise advice will be helpful to overweight women, her hormonal plan, advocated at HER Place centers, is complex and theoretical.

>From Library Journal
Why do women seem to have a harder time losing weight than men? Why is it even more difficult as we age? Is losing weight really as simple as eating less and exercising more? Yes and no. Vliet (Screaming To Be Heard), a physician specializing in women's health and preventive and climacteric medicine, here describes the different hormones that affect women before and after menopause. Some estrogens produced before menopause are largely unavailable in hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
