Most drugs have side effects For example: - Statins reduce cholesterol but they also reduce coenzyme Q, important for energy production and maintaining good blood pressure. - Aspirin is great for a headache but also reduces vitamin C, important for immune function. Diet, Exercise Beat Drugs at Combating Type II Diabetes - This week the British Medical Journal published a meta-analysis of the best approaches to treating type II diabetes.

Of 13 nations, the U.S. is last for neonatal and infant mortality, last for years of potential life lost, 10th for age-adjusted mortality, 11th and 12th for female and male life expectancy respectively. Chronic degenerative diseases - heart disease, cancer, arthritis, obesity, etc. - are at epidemic levels and create the ideal long-term customers to grow the medical industry. Looking for a culprit?

A Safer Way To Get Arthritic Pain Relief - Pain relief from "Over The Counter" or prescribed drugs, while providing a degree of pain relief, can work against you in the form of dangerous side-effects.

What is the most addictive drug? - This is a question that people often ask but is actually a very difficult one to answer. Addiction is not just one single and simple process, it is a complex process that has both physical and psychological aspects. Nevertheless despite this complexity two attempts have been made to determine the most addictive drug. Independently Dr. Jack E. Henningfield of the National Institute on Drug Abuse and Dr. Neal L. Benowitz of the University of California at San Francisco, ranked six psychoactive substances, nicotine, heroin, cocaine, alcohol, caffeine and marijuana, on the five criteria they felt were most important in addiction. The first of these criteria was withdrawal. Mesothelioma and its Treatment - Mesothelioma is a form of cancer that is almost always caused by previous exposure to asbestos. In this disease, malignant cells develop in the mesothelium, a protective lining that covers most of the body's internal organs. Its most common site is the pleura, but it may also occur in the peritoneum or the pericardium. Mesothelioma is a disease that is almost 100% preventable; the only known cause is via exposure to the deadly mineral Asbestos. It comes from inhaling the particles of dust as the asbestos degrades; eating away at the lining of your lungs and developing into a deadly cancer. Red Ribbon Week Origin - When Red Ribbon Week started back in 1988 it was to honor a young DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) Agent by the name of Enrique Camarena. His friends knew him by the name of "Kiki". He was kidnapped and killed in Mexico back in 1985. He had uncovered a multi-billion dollar drug scam which might have involved the Mexican Army, police force and government. When he left his office one day, five men kidnapped him. He was found about a month later buried in a shallow grave. Change Our Focus, Change Our Society - Do you ever wonder why although so much of our tax dollars go to government programs to resolve society's problems, things seem to be getting worse? Are you appalled while reading the papers or listening to the news because you do not understand why so many adults and children are hurting themselves and others? Possibly the main reason why many of our programs have failed, why abuse is so widespread, is because society has been focusing on the symptoms and not the causes. Costa Rica Crime Rate - Lowest in Latin America Again - Crime is a factor that stays directly proportional to a growing urban settlement. This alone explains why Costa Rica has a very low crime rate. Most of the crime that takes place is typically petty theft. Violent crime is almost unheard of. Costa Rica is considered to be a very safe place inhabited by warm and friendly people. Even worldwide terrorism hasn't posed a threat to Costa Rica. And though the crime rate has increased over the last 30 years, it is still positioned well below the level of other countries. The reason behind it is because of the growing urban settlement. But the smaller towns in Costa Rica have a crime rate that's even lower than the meager occurrences in the comparatively larger cities.
