Dr. Francisco Perez-Jimenez of Reina Sofia University Hospital in Cordoba and
colleagues conclude.

* Sunscreen may get tougher rating system: FDA cracks down on unproven claims
for protection against UVA rays *
It may be the summer of '09 before beachgoers can count on finding sunscreens to
protect against the deeper, penetrating rays linked to wrinkles and cancer.
The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday proposed long-delayed rules
covering the ingredients, labeling and testing of sunscreens that boast of
protecting against both the sun's ultraviolet B rays, which cause sunburn, and
the ultraviolet A rays associated with more serious and longer-term damage.

* Kids' High Blood Pressure Often Missed: Study Shows Doctors May Be
Underdiagnosing Hypertension in Children *
High blood pressure in children and teens appears increasingly common, but it
frequently goes undiagnosed, according to new research.
Three out of four children in the study who were found to have high blood
pressure also had no previous diagnosis of the disorder. Only one in 10 children
with borderline high blood pressure, or pre-hypertension, had a prior diagnosis.

* The best multivitamin for you -- and 11 to steer clear of *
You've been told for years that popping a multivitamin every day might help you
live longer. But the daily multi habit has been getting a bit of bad press
lately.
First, ConsumerLab.com, a watchdog of the supplement industry, found that more
than half of the 21 multis it tested had too much (or too little) of certain
vitamins -- or had been contaminated with dangerous substances such as lead.
Then a controversial paper from researchers in Denmark and other European
countries, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, made
the claim that taking vitamins may actually shorten your life.

*** Health/Safety Tips & Articles for the Week ***

* Healing *
There is a consciousness movement around the world that reflects an advancement
in human evolution - a growing recognition, or, more rightly, a remembrance that
we are spiritual beings first, and in physical form, second. Many have surged
past the limiting belief in body and mind alone, forging into the reality that
we are much more than who or what we seem. This is the foundation for true
healing: realizing that wholeness means acknowledging, accepting, and living a
fully connected life in body, mind, and spirit.

*** Book Review: Eating for Pregnancy: An Essential Guide to Nutrition with
Recipes for the Whole Family - By Catherine Jones with Rose Ann Hudson, R.D.,
L.D. ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
Aiming to fill a gap in the market, Jones has collaborated with perinatal
nutritionist Hudson to produce a volume that combines both recipes and
nutritional advice aimed specifically at the mother-to-be. Delicately balancing
optimum and unnecessary weight gain with the required dietary needs for a
healthy lifestyle, Jones and Hudson also addresses the requirements of diabetic,
vegetarian, and vegan diets.
After an introduction providing a summary of needs and goals, the authors start
with breakfast and move through the usual soups, salads, and mains before
finishing with desserts. A full chapter is dedicated to the vegetarian diet, and
at the beginning of each chapter recipes are highlighted to indicate that they
conform to a vegan diet. Each section contains recommended pantry items for the
recipes. Along the way Jones makes full use of convenience and semi-prepared
ingredients to provide simple yet flavorful dishes, while Hudson doles out
advice on vitamins, health hazards, and goals.
Each recipe is preceded with the nutritional goal for baby and mother-to-be and
followed by tips for cooking, storage, health, special diet,s as well as
complete meal ideas, variations, and the approximate nutritional content.
Appendixes on weight, sources of nutrition from calcium to iron, and food safety
round out the book. Despite the book's wordiness and repetition in places, there
is an overwhelming amount of information. (Copyright 2003 Reed Business
