* Study: Tai chi may help prevent shingles *
Tai chi is already known as a good low-impact exercise for older people. Now a
recent study suggests it offers benefits beyond improving fitness and balance:
It may help prevent shingles, a painful skin condition.
Researchers found older people who performed the slow, graceful movements of tai
chi had a better immune response against the virus that causes shingles than
those who only got health education, according to the most rigorous test to
date.

* Extract may help treat bladder infection *
An herbal extract that is sold in health food stores and promoted as an allergy
and fat loss aid may improve treatment of bladder infections when it is taken
with antibiotics, research suggests.
Some 90 percent of bladder infections are caused by E. coli bacteria. They
affect women four times more often than men, sometimes recurring over and over.

* Why raiding the fridge at night is a bad idea: You can eat after dark without
blowing your diet, but be careful *
Judy, a 39-year-old suburban mother of two and a veteran dieter, was convinced
that fasting after 7 p.m. would help give her back the body she had in college.
But clocking calories left her feeling unsatisfied by bedtime.
Like many dieters, Judy fell for some magic rule such as "no eating after dark."
But it's not so much when you eat as what and how much that really counts.

* Proper Eating *
There is no greater influence on your health than the food you eat. But genetic
factors, such as your unique "body chemistry," influences how you process what
you eat.
As such, knowing your genetic make-up -- how you process certain foods; what
ratio of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates is right for you; how certain foods
react with your body chemistry -- makes all the difference in health and
longevity.

* Aging *
After my mother suffered a massive stroke, I sat in her hospital room, tears
running down my face. I kept thinking and hoping that maybe she was going to
wake up and say, "OK, let's go to the mall."
The reality was...going to the mall with her was never again going to be an easy
task. The more I dwelled on it, the more I began to think about never going to
the mall again, if she couldn't go with me. I thought, what if she died right
now and we never had another happy moment together? What if she was dead right
now, and I was sitting there thinking she's asleep?

* Hospital Stays *
We're going through a sticky patch in hospital care. Patients and their loved
ones often feel that there are too many doctors (and you rarely see the same one
twice) and too few nurses (and it's hard to get their attention). Worse: it's
hard to figure out just who is in charge -- or whether anyone is. Here's why:

A much-needed antidote to our modern, assembly-line approach to childbirth, this
new book is designed as a guide for all who wish to participate in the wondrous
process of bringing new life into the world. Its ideas derive from two sources:
the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, with its emphasis on body, mind, and spirit, and
the latest Western scientific prenatal research. By integrating the best
information from these two very different perspectives, this remarkable book
gives readers the tools to ensure that our children are nourished by thoughts,
words, and actions from the very moment of conception.
"Magical Beginnings, Enchanted Lives" is rich in practical information,
including strategies to help enliven the body intelligence of unborn babies by
nourishing each of their five senses, as well as through Ayurvedically balanced
nutrition and eating with awareness. Specific yoga poses and meditation
techniques reduce the mother's stress and improve the infant's emotional
environment, as do tips for conscious communication with a partner. Exercises
prepare parents for the experience of childbirth itself, followed by natural
approaches to dealing with the first weeks of parenting, from healing herbs to
enhancing your milk supply to coping with postpartum depression.
Inspiring, expansive, and remarkably informative, this unique book from
acclaimed experts in mind-body medicine will profoundly enhance the experience
of pregnancy and birth for both parents and baby.

When you buy "Magical Beginnings, Enchanted Lives" today, you'll receive a
package of beautiful gifts -- all hand-picked to give you more peace, joy, and
ease on your journey into birth. To read more about this offer and to purchase
