Physical and Social Pain Are Processed in Some of the Same Areas of the Brain. Sticks and stones may break your bones, but names can hurt just as much. Indeed, according to converging evidence reported in a new review in Current Directions in Psychological Science, physical and social pain are processed in some of the same regions of the brain. Naomi Eisenberger, co-director of the Social Cognitive Neuroscience Lab at UCLA, published the first brain-imaging paper revealing the overlap in 2003. She had been studying participants’ reactions to being rejected by other players (actually just a computer opponent) in a video game.
“The first time we noticed the similarity, I was analyzing data next to a colleague of mine who was analyzing data on physical pain in irritable bowel syndrome,” she says. Physical pain has two components, Eisenberger explains: sensory and emotional.

SUMMARY: Canadian researchers have established that treating children with the age-old practice of acupuncture is safe, and poses little risk if performed by a qualified practitioner. After reviewing studies spanning more than 60 years, Canadian researchers have concluded that treating children with acupuncture is safe when administered by trained practitioners.
The details of the review were recently published in the journal . Although the evidence did show that some hospitalizations occurred due to serious infections and other effects suffered from unsuccessful procedures, senior study author Dr. Sunita Vohra, a professor in the department of pediatrics at Edmonton Canada’s University of Alberta, noted that little risks exist when a qualified practitioner provides acupuncture treatment. She pointed out, “When you’re dealing with children, you really would like to know about safety before you go ahead and try a new therapy.”
Qualified Practitioners Are the Key – Page 2. Acupuncture Effective in Easing Breast Cancer Treatment Symptoms. Aside from skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women, and the second leading cause of death in women. The American Cancer Society estimates that the chance of a woman getting breast cancer at some point during her life is slightly less than 1 in 8, and the chance of dying from breast cancer is about 1 in 35.
However, as a result of early detection and vast improvements in treatment over the past two decades, breast cancer death rates have been decreasing. Today in America, there are more than 2.5 million survivors. Although each person’s treatment will be slightly different, it most often involves some combination of surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, followed by five years of hormone therapy and drugs like tamoxifen, which counters the effects of hormones. Previous studies have shown that acupuncture can reduce hot flashes in healthy postmenopausal women. But other experts say it’s too early to take the findings too seriously. Prenatal Diet and Nutrition Affects Risk of Birth Defects. SUMMARY: Research shows that women who keep to a healthy, well-rounded diet during the nine months of pregnancy have a lower chance of delivering babies with birth defects.
Pregnancy is a special time in a women’s life and requires special attention to diet and lifestyle. In fact, research shows that women who keep to a healthy, well-rounded diet during the nine months of pregnancy have a lower chance of delivering babies with birth defects. A new study out of Stanford University, published in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, found that “better maternal diet quality was associated with reduced risk for selected birth defects.” Reviewing data from the National Birth Defects Prevention Study, researchers found that pregnant women who ate along the lines of a Mediterranean diet or followed the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Guide Pyramid (now called MyPlate), had a significantly lower chance of their baby being born with a neural tube defect or orafacial cleft.
Dr. Arnica Montana: Natural Treatment for Inflammation and Trauma. SUMMARY: Back pain? Sports injury? Chronic arthritis? Homeopathic remedy Arnica Montana can help reduce inflammation, swelling, and bruising and improve function quicker than many standard treatments. Arnica Montana is one of the most valuable homeopathic remedies. Used by Native American and Europeans for centuries, Arnica was first described in the sixteenth century by the naturalist Tabernae Montanus, for whom it is named. Arnica is a wonder drug for treating trauma. Inflammation is a reaction caused by damaged cells. Arnica reduces inflammation response and can be used to aid recovery from overuse injuries or for overstrenuous skiing, or other sports related strains. Another study showed improvement in osteoarthritis in knee joints after three weeks of using Arnica gel. Other Uses of Arnica Montana – Page 2. Growing Number of Americans Using Vitamin Supplements.
The use of vitamin supplements is on the rise among American adults ages twenty and over, according to a new report from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). The report contains estimates of dietary supplement use for specific population groups over time, as well as those for specific nutrients consumed through use of the supplements. Over the span of almost two decades, between the years 1988 and 2006, the use of dietary supplements has become widespread among U.S. adults. Usage has increased from 42 percent during the period from 1988 to 1994, to 53 percent between 2003 and 2006, especially among women. Among the most commonly used dietary supplements among men and women are multivitamins/multiminerals with approximately 40 percent reporting their use during the period from 2003 through 2006.
These dietary supplements contain a minimum of three vitamins, and may also contain minerals. Fish Oil Reduces Heart-Related Illness. Fish oil, and its high level of omega-3 fatty acids, has been proven reduce the risk of some forms of cancer, relieve joint pain and other rheumatoid problems, and lessen the effects of depression and other mental disorders. Omega-3 fats can also help with some forms of skin problems and has been reported to ward off Alzheimer’s disease. Now there are heart benefits as well. An omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) study was conducted by Italian researchers to test the benefits of fish oil. They enlisted more than 7,000 people who had been diagnosed with heart failure, a condition in which the heart becomes enlarged and loses its ability to effectively pump blood around the body. In a parallel study, the same team studied heart failure rates of 2,285 patients who were given the statin rosuvastatin, also known as Crestor, while 2,289 were given a placebo.
However, in an editorial accompanying the journal report, Dr. Public health organizations recommend eating fish twice a week. Cold and Flu Treatments Can Be Found In Common Foods.

Flaxseed No Help for Menopausal Hot Flashes. Another natural remedy is proven to be useless in a woman’s battle with menopausal hot flashes. Today, a study out of the Mayo Clinic was presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology, which effectively crossed flaxseed off the list of potential aids in reducing the severity of hot flashes that women endure throughout menopause.
Menopause marks the permanent cessation of reproductive fertility. For every woman, menopause manifests differently. Along with the end of menses, the most common complaints are hot flashes, night sweats, memory problems, sleep deprivation, loss of libido and vaginal dryness. For years, many women took prescription hormone replacement therapy (HRT). But researchers are still searching for the holy grail: a remedy that will ease the myriad symptoms that come with “the change.” Sandhya Pruthi, associate professor of medicine at the Mayo Clinic, and her team conducted a randomized study with 188 female participants. Multivitamin and Iron Supplements Pose Health Risks in Older Women. SUMMARY: A long-term study has revealed the startling revelation that certain supplements taken by older women could pose a health risk. A long-term study has revealed the startling revelation that certain supplements taken by older women could pose a health risk.
The nineteen-year study found that women who took supplements, particularly vitamin B-6, folic acid, iron, magnesium, zinc and copper— often found in combination in multivitamins—could increase risk of early death by 6 percent. The study, out of Finland and published in The Archives of Internal Medicine, followed 38,000 women with an average age of 62, for almost two decades. Of the group, 85 percent took at least one supplement a day. At the start of the study, the women reporting use of vitamins and supplements were found to be healthier overall than those women who were not taking regular doses of multivitamins or supplements.
Vitamin E Tied to Higher Risk of Prostate Cancer. SUMMARY: A high dosage of Vitamin E taken over a long period of time could increase the risk of prostate cancer in men. NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Men taking daily vitamin E were more likely to get prostate cancer than those not taking the dietary supplement in a new study of close to 35,000 North Americans. Over a decade, an additional one or two men out of 100 taking vitamin E would be expected to get prostate cancer, researchers found. "If you have enough of these vitamins in your system...extra doesn't help you any, and too much of something like this can be harmful," Dr. Eric Klein from the Cleveland Clinic, one of the study's authors, told Reuters Health. The findings, released today in the Journal of the American Medical Association, come on the heels of a study suggesting older women who take multivitamins have slightly increased death rates than those who don't (see Reuters Health story of October 10, 2011).

" Indeed, the unsweetened drink the Aztecs made of pounded cocoa beans and spices was probably extremely bitter. Bitterness notwithstanding, the Aztec king Montezuma so believed that chocolate was an aphrodisiac that he purportedly drank 50 golden goblets of it each day.
Chocolate comes from the tropical cocoa bean, Theobroma ("food of the gods") cacao. After the beans are removed from their pods they're fermented, dried, roasted and cracked, separating the nibs (which contain an average of 54 percent cocoa butter) from the shells.
