* Scientists unravel health benefits of garlic: study *
Alternative medicine has been touting the health benefits of garlic for
centuries, from its anti-bacterial and antifungal properties, to its positive
effects on the cardiovascular system.
Now U.S. researchers say they have figured out precisely why the pungent clove
makes such a valuable health tonic: it boosts the body's own production of a
compound that relaxes blood vessels, increases blood flow, and prevents blood
clots and oxidative damage.

* Family involvement may help with repeat depression *
Family therapy may be more effective than simply increasing the dosage of an
antidepressant drug when a patient with severe depression suffers a relapse
during long-term treatment, new research suggests.
The results from the present study illustrate the important role life events and
family balance have on patients being treated for repeat depression episodes,
note Dr. Giovanni A. Fava, University of Bologna, Italy, and colleagues.

* Feel-Good Gene May Spur Snacking *
Do you crave a favorite snack food so badly that you would go out of your way to
get it? Scientists have a new clue about why that happens.
Some people are more motivated than others to seek out their favorite foods.
That motivation may involve a gene for the feel-good brain chemical dopamine,
according to new research.
The finding may lead to personalized obesity treatment, the researchers predict.

* Why do some aging brains stay sharp? Doctors seek ways to protect memory from
normal wear-and-tear *
When aging hampers memory, some people's brains compensate to stay sharp. Now
scientists want to know how those brains make do -- in hopes of developing
treatments to help everyone else keep up.
This is not Alzheimer's disease, but the wear-and-tear of so-called normal
aging. New research is making clear that memory and other brain functions
decline to varying degrees even in otherwise healthy people as they age, as
anyone who habitually loses car keys probably suspected.

* Bone Health *
Do you have arthritis? Or think you might? Over 90 MILLION people in the United
States have arthritis. That is, one person in 3 people is suffering every day,
24 hours a day. As I was for 43 years. It has now been 27 years of being without
arthritis.
The reason for this is that your cells are crying for vitamins and vitamins.

* Positive Thinking *
Given the amount of complexity we're juggling, these times demand a positive
outlook. It sounds simple. We should begin each day based upon the present,
enriching ourselves with whatever today brings. But do you find it difficult to
generate a positive attitude given natural disasters, unemployment, or illness?
Creating a positive attitude means viewing every day as a new choice, no matter
how we slice it. We get to start over the minute we get out of bed. The sun
comes up in spite of our mistakes or despair we must face. I believe we are
meant to continually move forward -- and focus on life as an incredible universe
of opportunity.

Attitude" - By Charlene M. Proctor, Ph.D., go to

* Feet and Back *
Contrary to popular belief, many people with foot problems do not have any pain
in their feet. Instead, the area of pain is transferred up the body, to the
knees, hips, lower back, or even neck. An example of this is one whose feet roll
inward, which causes their pelvis to jut forward. This, in turn, causes the
upper back to "hump" and the head to move forward, all in an attempt to keep the
body balanced. In fact, 80% of people over forty years of age experience bodily
distortions directly resulting from supinated (rolled out) or pronated (rolled
in) feet. The most common symptom of this problem is not pain, but rather, a
general feeling of fatigue.
