Friday was my older son’s birthday, and we went out to dinner to celebrate. Both my boys ordered the same dish: Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp With Jalapeno. They very generously shared with their sister and me, and we all agreed that it was really good. Because…
What are your chances of developing an infection that can’t be cured? Unless certain drug abusers can be stopped, researchers say the odds are starting to look pretty bleak… but it’s not the kind of drug abuser you might think. I’m talking about the use and abuse of antibiotics in the U.S. and the world. It’s so out of control that we now have many superbugs that cause infections that…
For better or worse, social media has taken the world hostage. Many people are glued to their Facebook pages, Twitter feeds, Instagrams and other social media platforms out there today. To be honest, I am a bit behind the times with all the tweeting and instant photo uploads, but I do check out Facebook every day to see what’s going on. Sometimes what I read makes me feel good, even…
The “silent killer.” That’s a name that can scare anyone. But it’s not the name of a horror movie character. It’s the term used for hypertension or high blood pressure. That’s because this deadly condition often has no outward signs, and few if any symptoms.

And a report now shows that this all-American concoction is being formulated with pollutants from factories and electrical generating plants. The average American consumes about 3 quarts of soft drinks a week. That’s bad enough news for our health since soft drinks have been linked to obesity, diabetes and fatty liver.…
We all think of elite athletes at the height of their athletic powers to be the fittest, and the most well-nourished of people. Yet even the best athletes don’t get enough of one critical nutrient essential to the foundations of their bodies – the bones. A study at the University of Southern California (USC), shows that one out of every three Division I college athletes are too low in vitamin…
We’ve known for a while that insulin and blood sugar problems associated with diabetes are linked to breast cancer. But what you may not know is that if you have diabetes, or insulin resistance, you are much more likely to get late stage breast cancer, and have a higher risk of death than others who develop breast cancer. Researchers at the Women’s College Hospital in Toronto wrote that there could…
There’s this bakery in Birmingham, Alabama, that makes the best egg salad I ever had. It’s so rich and so creamy, and it’s served on delicious fresh-baked bread with a side of fruit salad. When I lived there and felt like indulging and acting like a lady who lunches, that’s where I went and that’s what I ate. But truth be told, I’m not really the lady-who-lunches type. And as…
If you’re interested in determining your life expectancy, researchers at Washington University in St. Louis, know who you should ask. And it isn’t your doctor. It’s your closest friends. An 80-year study shows that the way your intimate friends view your personality and behavior is one of the most accurate ways to calculate how long you will probably live. “You expect your friends to be inclined to see you in…
