*** TOP NATURAL HEALTH NEWS STORY OF THE WEEK ***

Carpal Tunnel Relief
Practicing Iyengar-style yoga twice weekly reduces carpal tunnel pain.
"Yoga helps many people relieve tension, stress, and fatigue often
caused by the rigors of the workplace. New research suggests that yoga
can be used to treat another work-related health problem: carpal tunnel
syndrome. A recent University of Pennsylvania study published in the
Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) shows that
Iyengar-style classes conducted twice weekly for eight weeks
significantly reduced pain and improved grip strength among carpal
tunnel patients."

*** OTHER HEALTH NEWS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.***

Herbal pills may cause bleeding
"A surgeon says several people have needed emergency surgery to stop
post-operative bleeding which may have been caused by popular herbal
remedies."
http://onenews.nzoom.com/onenews_detail/0,1227,132507-1-6,00.html

A Healthful Diet Is Not Necessarily More Expensive
"People make their food choices for all kinds of reasons, including
taste, nutrition knowledge, and availability of different foods.
Another factor that seems to play a significant role in people's choices is
cost, with many people believing that a healthful diet is more
expensive than a less healthful one. But a recent study in the Journal of the
American Dietetic Association provides evidence that a healthful diet,
over the long run, can actually be a less expensive alternative."

Dirt May Be Good for Kids
Kids With Clean Beds Have More Allergies
"Behind the ongoing epidemic of allergy and autoimmune disease there's
a surprising culprit: cleanliness. One of the hallmarks of the 20th
century was its war on germs. Kids now live in cleaner homes and suffer
fewer infections than their grandparents did. There's irony in this,
according to the so-called "hygiene" theory. It holds that a germ-free
childhood warps the immune system. This may lead not only to allergic
diseases but also to autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes and
multiple sclerosis."

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

BACK PAIN? - "For as long as I can remember, I've suffered from back
pain. Although I have experienced some relief using heat, cold,
massage, chiropractic and acupuncture, invariably the pain has always
returned. Until one day I visited a friend in California who had
similar back problems. She told me she had some body work done called
Bowen. Her back and hip pain were gone after just one session!"

SUPPLEMENTS - "'Mineralibrium' is the key to successful supplement use
"Today's consumer is bombarded with information about which products
are good for the health and which are not, with new studies being published
almost every day into the effects - beneficial or otherwise - of
vitamins, minerals and herbs.
These studies often seem to contradict one another, and each product
has its supporters or opponents who are quick to praise or condemn the
findings of any new research depending on what it claims about their
preferred supplement."

Novotny,

FRUIT JUICE - Although fruit juices often contain vitamins and
minerals, beware to limit the amount of fruit juices that you consume. If you
are counting calories, they tend to be high and often contain a high amount
of natural sugar. Beware also that many product add sugar as well.

*** BOOK REVIEW: Fight Fat After Forty: The Revolutionary Three-Pronged
Approach That Will Break Your Stress-Fat Cycle and Make You Healthy,
Fit, and Trim for Life by Pamela, Md. Peeke***

If you're a woman over 40, you are undergoing physical and emotional
changes, declining metabolism, fat deposits at your waistline,
decreased energy, mood swings, food cravings--do we need to continue this list?
Now pile on chronic, long-term stress (which the author terms toxic
stress), which hits women between 40 and 60 and leads to
self-destructive eating behavior. "Uncontrolled or toxic stress keeps
the refueling appetite on, thus inducing stress eating and weight
gain," Peeke explains. The stress triggers are constant, so the body never
gets to turn off the stress response. The weight gained from this chronic,
toxic stress--toxic weight--settles inside the abdomen and is
associated with heart disease, diabetes, and cancer.

Peeke explains the association between stress and fat gain, and
describes the stress/eating cycle ("the itch you can't scratch"). Then
she teaches tools for "regrouping": formulating and following a
contingency plan of nutrition, exercise, and self-care. Next are
suggestions for a nutritional plan tied to stressful times of the day
and an explanation of food needs after age 40. In the final chapters,
Peeke nudges us to exercise to relieve stress, reduce body fat, and
benefit overall health. Peeke is a highly regarded scientist and
clinician who studies the link between stress and fat at the National
Institutes of Health. She's also Assistant Clinical Professor of
Medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and works
with Vice President Gore as the Medical Director of the National Race for
the Cure for Breast Cancer.
