* Milk: The Best Muscle-Builder? -- Milk Helps Build More Muscle After Exercise
Than Soy, Carb Drinks, Researchers Say *
Drink milk after your weight training workouts, and you may gain more muscle and
lose more body fat than if you drink a soy or carbohydrate drink, according to
the results of a new study.
Researchers compared the effects of drinking nonfat milk, a soy protein drink,
or a carbohydrate drink on building muscle and burning fat after completing
weight lifting workouts.
All three groups gained muscle, but the milk drinkers got the best results, says
researcher Stuart M. Phillips, PhD, associate professor of kinesiology and an
exercise physiologist at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The
study was funded by the National Dairy Council and published in the Aug. 1 issue
of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

* Prenatal stress may affect babies' sleep *
A mother's anxiety or depression during pregnancy may affect her child's sleep
patterns early in life, a new study suggests.
Researchers found that babies and toddlers whose mothers had such symptoms
during pregnancy tended to have more sleep problems than other young children.

* New Evidence Prevention Is Best Medicine -- Report: More Americans Following 5
Basic Steps Would Save Over 100,000 Lives Each Year In U.S. *
An ounce of prevention may be worth a pound of cure, but more Americans carrying
out five basic preventive measures would save well over 100,000 lives in the
United States annually, according to a new report.
It contains numbers to back the main principle of the Partnershp for Prevention,
namely, that more emphasis on preventing disease, not just treating it, is
needed in the U.S. health care system, and would result in much more efficient
use of money spent for it.

*** Health/Safety Tips & Articles for the Week ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
* Oxygen *
Your brain and nervous system need three things for optimal function:
* proper nutrition (protein and balanced blood sugar),
* stimulation/activation
* oxygen
Oxygen is critical - your brain depends on adequate oxygen more than any other
part of your body. As you age, you lose some of your capacity to utilize oxygen,
approximately 1% per year. The older you get, the more oxygen deficiency becomes
an issue.

* Enlightenment *
Human spiritual enlightenment occurs when your consciousness permanently expands
beyond the limits of your body and your mind's self-created identity. The
energetic membranes between the subconscious, conscious, and superconscious
levels of the mind dissolve. As an enlightened human, you take 100%
responsibility for co-creating your personal experience of reality. And you have
zero judgment about what others are co-creating.

* Depression *
Okay, maybe I could have picked a different title, but the truth is most people
have bought into the lie that depression must be treated with
personality-altering, anti-depressant drugs with horrible side-effects. Listen
to this! Annually, more than $8 billion in the United States and $12 billion
worldwide are given to doctors and prescription companies for antidepressant
medications. Some doctors report that more than 40% of middle-aged female
patients are on this side-effect laden antidepressant medications. This is
getting out of control!

*** Book Review: 7 Steps to a Pain-Free Life: How to Rapidly Relieve Back and
Neck Pain – By Robin McKenzie with Craig Kubey ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
What causes chronic, debilitating back pain, one of the most common--and
expensive to treat--ailments in the world? According to Robin McKenzie, a New
Zealand physiotherapist for over 40 years and author of the wildly popular
self-help manuals "Treat Your Own Back" and "Treat Your Own Neck," distortion of
the spinal disks--either from bad posture or injury--is the cause of the pain.
The magic cure is the McKenzie Method--seven very specific exercises that allow
the spine to return to its natural position. But forget the doctors--McKenzie
asserts that the management of your back pain is your responsibility. Practice
his seven unique exercises (the book includes seven each for the back and neck)
consistently and at regular intervals, and just about anyone can cure his or her
own back or neck pain without the help of professionals. McKenzie believes
self-treatment is actually more successful than medical interventions like
surgery, chiropractic, or physical therapy, and indeed, recent research does
show self-treatment to be a highly effective method.
More richly detailed and in-depth than his previous books, this volume is
illustrated with over 100 photos and liberally peppered with real-life case
histories. Starting with an analysis of how the back and neck work, it moves on
to a discussion of the common causes of pain--bad posture is most often to
blame. At the core is a detailed explanation of how to do the McKenzie Method
exercises, when to apply them, and how to adjust your personal program over
time. Included are instructions for people who suffer with acute back and neck
pain (with appropriate cautions regarding when to call a medical professional)
as well as for people in special situations like pregnant women, athletes, and
seniors. An impassioned introduction by coauthor Craig Kubey, a satisfied
convert after suffering intense back and neck pain as a result of several auto
accidents, could very well make a believer out of anyone. --Marianne Painter

Pumpkin Custard
4-1/2 cups nonfat milk
2-1/4 cups egg substitute
2 cups pumpkin puree
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Whisk all ingredients together making sure that
sugar is dissolved before you begin baking. Spray inside of individual ramekins
or custard cups with nonstick spray and fill each 3/4 full with custard mixture.
Place ramekins in a larger baking dish that will allow for water to come at
least halfway up the side of the ramekins. Fill large baking dish with boiling
water and cover the top of the ramekins with parchment paper sprayed with
nonstick spray. Place two utensils or metal skewers on top of the parchment to
keep from curling off in the oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes before checking with a
skewer or fork tines to see if custard is cooked. The custard will continue to
cook some as it cools so don't over cook. Serve with fresh berries, papaya, or
other fresh fruit.
