* High blood DHA levels may lower dementia risk *
High blood levels of the omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which
belongs to the class of nutrients called essential fatty acids, may protect

Massachusetts-based researchers report in the Archives of Neurology. DHA is an
abundant in the brain, and fish is the primary dietary source.

* Taste buds key to Thanksgiving -- and health: How we taste involves complex
interaction of nose, brain and more *
Woe to those who have a cold on Thursday. If you can’t smell the roasting
turkey, it just won’t taste as good.
And if you think the brussels sprouts are bitter, well, blame how many taste
buds you were born with, not the chef.

* Creativity *
The Four Elements
I've often noticed how water can inspire moments of creative problem solving and
inspiration.
Some people "plant" a problem to be solved under their pillow before sleep.
Similarly, when I need inspiration about a project or situation I’m facing, I’ll
sometimes "plant" it before I engage in a water activity such as taking a shower
or doing the dishes.

* Healthy Meat *
Carbon monoxide is being used as a "pigment fixative" to treat meat in order to
help it retain its redness.
The meat industry has defended this relatively new practice by claiming that
money is wasted when sellers throw away good meat that has become slightly brown
and less attractive.

Counter" - By Dr. Joseph Mercola, go to

* Hearing Aids *
In preparation for meeting with a hearing aid dispenser to buy hearing aids,
there are a few steps you should take to ensure that you get the most out of the
visit. Most importantly, you should not only have had a complete hearing test
administered, but you should also have had your test results explained to you in
detail. Make sure you have the results handy so you can bring them to discuss
with the hearing aid dispenser.

*** Book Review: Dr. Melissa Palmer's Guide to Hepatitis and Liver Disease: What
You Need to Know – By Melissa Palmer, M.D. ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
Palmer, a nationally recognized hepatologist, provides plainly written medical
information explaining how the liver is integral to every aspect of daily
functioning and well-being. She divides her text into four logical units: "The
Basics," "Understanding and Treating Viral Hepatitis," "Understanding and
Treating Other Liver Diseases," and "Treatment Options and Lifestyle Changes."
Common misconceptions about this extraordinarily complex organ are dispelled;
liver diseases are examined from symptoms through diagnosis and up-to-date
therapeutics.
Palmer advises on finding a doctor and getting the latest information on liver
disease from the Internet, MEDLINE, and the medical literature. (The author
maintains the popular website liverdisease.com.) She also covers drugs, diet and
nutrition, alternative therapies, surgery and transplantation, the liver in
pregnancy, and living with an imperfectly functioning liver. Palmer's impressive
work is truly encyclopedic. Highly recommended. --James Swanton, Harlem Hosp.
