* Study: Acupuncture works for back pain *
Fake acupuncture works nearly as well as the real thing for low back pain, and
either kind performs much better than usual care, German researchers have found.
Almost half the patients treated with acupuncture needles felt relief that
lasted months. In contrast, only about a quarter of the patients receiving
medications and other Western medical treatments felt better.
Even fake acupuncture worked better than conventional care, leading researchers
to wonder whether pain relief came from the body's reactions to any thin needle
pricks or, possibly, the placebo effect.

* "Eating competence" may lead to healthier hearts *
People who are confident, comfortable, and flexible eaters may be less prone to
develop cardiovascular disease than those who are not, new research suggests.
According to the Satter Eating Competence Model, developed by registered
dietitian Ellyn Satter, competent eaters are aware of hunger and appetite,
regularly eat a variety of enjoyable and nourishing food, and eat in harmony
with the body's biological tendency to maintain a preferred and stable weight.

* Chew away -- gum can be good for teeth: As long as it's sugar-free; ADA awards

The nation's largest dentist group now says gum can be good for you, as long as
it's sugar-free.
The American Dental Association said Tuesday it has awarded its seal of
acceptance to Wrigley sugar-free gums Orbit, Extra and Eclipse -- based on
studies funded at least partially by the maker of Wrigley gums, Chicago-based
Wm. Wrigley Jr. Co.

* Depression *
A new study by Statistics Canada shows that men are more likely to suffer
depression than women in the two years after a marriage or common-law
relationship breaks up. The longitudinal data from the National Population
Health Survey showed that men, aged 20-64, were six times more likely to report
an episode of depression than men who were still married. Compare that to women,
aged 20-64, who were only 3.5 times more likely to report depression than women
who were married. It seems that being the strong, silent type isn't such a good
strategy after all.

* Asthma *
Asthma is a chronic disease that affects the respiratory system. During an
asthma attack, airways, which carry oxygen to and out of the lungs, tend to
tighten and hence decrease the flow of oxygen coming to the lungs. The airways
also become inflamed and lined up with mucus. Those symptoms may happen several
times in a day or week, or much less often. The severity of the attacks also
changes.

* Longevity *
"The next century will be dominated by the concerns of the elderly," affirms Ken
Minaker, M.D., Chief of Geriatric Medicine at the Massachusetts General Hospital
and associate professor at Harvard Medical School. By the year 2050, our average
life expectancy is projected to be 82.6 years (up from today's average life
expectancy of 72.1 years for men and 78.8 years for women). The census bureau
predicts that 3 million baby boomers will live to be 100 years old or more!

*** Book Review: Good Calories, Bad Calories: Challenging the Conventional
Wisdom on Diet, Weight Control, and Disease - By Gary Taubes ***
-------------------------------------------------------------
Taubes's eye-opening challenge to widely accepted ideas on nutrition and weight
loss is as provocative as was his 2001 New York Times Magazine article, "What if
It's All a Big Fat Lie?" Taubes ("Bad Science"), a writer for Science magazine,
begins by showing how public health data has been misinterpreted to mark dietary
fat and cholesterol as the primary causes of coronary heart disease. Deeper
examination, he says, shows that heart disease and other diseases of
civilization appear to result from increased consumption of refined
carbohydrates: sugar, white flour and white rice.
When researcher John Yudkin announced these results in the 1950s, however, he
was drowned out by the conventional wisdom. Taubes cites clinical evidence
showing that elevated triglyceride levels, rather than high total cholesterol,
are associated with increased risk of heart disease -- but measuring
triglycerides is more difficult than measuring cholesterol. Taubes says that the
current U.S. obesity epidemic actually consists of a very small increase in the
average body mass index.
Taube's arguments are lucid and well supported by lengthy notes and
bibliography. His call for dietary advice that is based on rigorous science, not
century-old preconceptions about the penalties of gluttony and sloth, is bound
to be echoed loudly by many readers. (Copyright C Reed Business Information, a
