* 9 Surprising Facts About Your Stomach: When it comes to the tummy, experts say myths abound. How much do you really know about your stomach?

From those burning, churning feelings that erupt whenever we eat our favorite foods, to the bloating that keeps us from zipping up our jeans, to the gas that can make us the most unpopular person in the elevator, our stomach can be the cause of some major inconveniences, if not some outright health concerns.

Still, experts say most folks know painfully little about how their stomach and their digestive tract operates -- one reason that solving tummy troubles can seem much harder than it has to be.

* Magnesium-rich foods ward off stroke in smokers *

Diets rich in magnesium, found in whole grains and vegetables, could help reduce stroke risk in smokers, researchers reported on Monday.

Their study of 26,000 male smokers in Finland found that those whose diets were high in magnesium had a significantly lower risk of one type of stroke.

* Yoga May Help After Breast Cancer: Breast Cancer Survivors Report Fewer Hot Flashes After 8 Weeks Of Specialized Yoga Training *

Yoga may ease hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms in breast cancer survivors, new research shows.

"We knew that some data found yoga helped reduce hot flashes among healthy women but no one had studied the effects among cancer survivors," Duke University's Laura Porter, Ph.D., says in a news release.

* Extra pregnancy weight doesn't mean heavy kid: Babies not metabolically programmed before birth, researchers find *

British researchers who tried to show why overweight mothers tend to have overweight children said on Monday they had filled in one small piece of the puzzle.

Their reassuring finding: women who are too heavy when pregnant are probably not somehow driving the obesity epidemic by programming their children to be fat.

* Longevity *


A widely reported British study of twins found that the twin who exercised more had longer telomeres--and the more exercise the longer the telomeres. Under a microscope, telomeres of frequent exercisers looked nine years younger than couch potato telomeres. Telomeres cap the ends of chromosomes and each time the cell reproduces, the telomeres shorten. When they get too short, the cell cannot reproduce. The researchers ruled out smoking and marital status as causal factors. (The study is, of course, correlational research, and it is possible there could be differences other than exercise.)

* Healing *


I grew up believing in some white bearded powerful deity that would hear my petitions, and in some mysterious way answer my request.

I went to a private school that spoke of sin and salvation in the same breath. Most of my early life I surrendered to other people's beliefs about who I was.

I had beautiful dreams but was surrounded by harshness that wounded my creative heart and crippled my self confidence.

* Bodybuilding *


Ever wonder why some guys can train in the gym day after day, month after month, year after year, suck down raw eggs and protein powder and pop every bodybuilding supplement pill they can get their hands on...and BARELY see any progress?!

And what about the guy who seems to go to the gym, just look at the weights, follow it up with a diet of Twinkies and cheesecake, and somehow add an inch to his biceps in the process?

Frustrating, right?

*** Book Review: The Cardio-Free Diet - By Jim Karas ***
-------------------------------------------------------------


Cardiovascular workouts do burn a few calories, but far fewer than you think. And the more cardio you do, the hungrier you feel. Not only does cardio fail to help you lose weight, but it kills -- it kills your time, your energy, your joints, and your motivation. You burn a few measly calories but then eat twice as many afterward. The result? Weight gain -- and lots of it.

"The Cardio-Free Diet" is a revolutionary four-phase program that emphasizes strength training to boost your metabolism; build lean, sexy muscles; and achieve all the same heart-healthy benefits of cardio. With just twenty minutes a day, three days a week, you can look and feel noticeably leaner, stronger, and younger than ever before.

Weight loss expert Jim Karas has shaped the bodies of Diane Sawyer, Paula Zahn, Hugh Jackman, and even Oprah's best pal, Gayle King. With easy-to-follow instructions, Jim shows you how to exercise the right way in order to see incredible results. You won't just lose weight -- you'll sculpt a whole new physique.

Watch the pounds disappear as you prepare delicious dishes such as apple balsamic chicken, Dijon turkey, feta vegetable omelets, and grilled tomato tuna. You can even enjoy a daily glass of wine! With detailed shopping lists, a variety of daily menus, and helpful tips on how to maintain your diet when eating out or ordering in, you'll never have to worry about what to eat.

"The Cardio-Free Diet" offers maximum results in minimal time -- so break free from the mindless, ineffective cycle of cardio and get the body you've always wanted!
