* Flaxseed, ginseng show benefit in cancer treatment *
Flaxseed slowed the growth of prostate tumors in men, while ginseng helped
relieve the fatigue that cancer patients often feel, U.S. researchers reported
on Saturday in two of the first scientifically rigorous looks at alternative
medicine.
The studies reflect doctors' efforts to explore the risks and benefits of foods
and supplements that are routinely taken by their patients with little
scientific proof they help.
Americans spend between $36 billion and $47 billion a year on complementary and
alternative therapies, according to the National Center for Health Statistics.

* Why secondhand smoke is as bad as they say: Study shows even limited exposure
damages children's arteries *
Even small amounts of secondhand tobacco smoke can damage a child's arteries,
researchers reported on Monday, adding to the growing body of evidence on the
harmful affects of exposure to smoking.
The Finnish study published in the American Heart Association journal
Circulation looked at the affect of smoking on children between the ages of 8
and 11.

* 9 Tips to Cut Injury in Young Athletes: To Stay in the Game in the Long Run,
Child and Teen Athletes Need Time Off *
Young athletes may need a little adult guidance to thrive on and off the playing
field, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).
The AAP's Council on Sports Medicine and Fitness notes that kids and teens are
increasingly involved in sports, and some young athletes are overdoing it.
Training intensely can lead to injury and burnout. So to keep young athletes in
the game, the AAP offers four practical tips for young athletes and their
parents, doctors, and coaches.

* Injuries Blamed On Trendy Wheeled Sneakers: Doctors Say "Heeling" Is Causing
Rash Of Injuries, Recommend Protective Gear *
Trendy wheeled sneakers that let kids zip down sidewalks, across playgrounds and
through mall crowds could also send them rolling into emergency rooms on a
stretcher, say doctors who blame a rash of injuries on the international craze.
It's called "heeling," named after Heelys, the most popular brand. They're sold
in 70 countries and are so hot that their Carrollton, Texas, maker, Heelys Inc.,
recently landed atop BusinessWeek's annual list of fastest-growing companies.

*** Health/Safety Tips & Articles for the Week ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
* Exercise *
Like many folks, I do my cardio on a treadmill. But because the pounding of
running makes my back hurt and tightens my hips, I created this 30-minute
treadmill routine. Now, I'm passing it on to you. Some of the moves can be
tricky at first, but that's a good thing, especially if your current treadmill
workout feels a bit stale. As you learn this routine, feel free to walk, jog, or
run instead of doing any of the moves.

* Anxiety *
It took me less than 3 minutes to write this list of anxiety producers and they
suck, as some kids would say in today's language. You can think of some anxiety
producers too. I want you to think of ways that these anxiety producers can be
used to your advantage. How can stress, anxiety, and panic be turned around to
work for you instead of against you? Here is the list I jotted down. This is the
working against you scenario.

* Spirituality *
A role as God's messenger is not what came to mind when I thought of myself
prior to age fifty. Nor is it what most of my friends would say of me today.
Yet, we are all messengers.
This book is you, and it is me. Yes, you will find yourself, like it or not, in
this book. Yes, we are in denial, and we self-medicate to avoid looking within.
While my friends and family will be surprised by this book, my wish is that it
inspires and provides insight for all of us.

*** Book Review: Tank Top Arms, Bikini Belly, Boy Shorts Bottom: Tighten and
Tone Your Body in as Little as 10 Minutes a Day – By Minna Lessig ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
There are a plethora of books aimed at women who have tried various workout
regimes and abandoned them, but Lessig's stands out for its focus on
"functional-training" (her exercises are designed to "mimic the movements of
everyday life") and for its gradual approach: the book offers plenty that may be
unfamiliar to the already-active, but really shines in taking one from total
inactivity to an effective routine in manageable, injuryless increments.
Lessig, who has produced three popular fitness videos, appears in more than 100
b&w photos illustrating the components of her mix-and-match regime, which
combines fitness balance (cardio, flexibility, and strength training are all
covered) and accessibility (no gym membership required, and workouts can be done
piecemeal rather than in big, blocked-out chunks of time). The book's focus on
sculpting has the effect of making the workouts seem less monumental (and thus
less impossible to maintain), and every other page features an affirmative
aphorism offset in a "Minna Says" speech bubble ("All success inspires a little
bit of fear. Let your fears inspire you to rise to the challenge").
Lessig's is a friendly, doable regime. (Copyright © Reed Business Information, a
