Berry Antioxidant Prevents Sunlight-Caused Wrinkles
In a small preliminary study, scientists recently found that topical application of an antioxidant common in many fruits, vegetables and nuts blocks key causes of wrinkles, such as inflammation and collagen destruction, in both human skin cells and the skin of hairless mice.
Results of the two-part study, carried out by Ji-young Bae, a graduate student in the laboratory of Young-hee Kang at Hallym University in the Republic of Korea, were presented at a recent Experimental Biology 2009 meeting in New Orleans.

The recent study at the Hallym University in the Republic of Korea describes how ellagic acid, which is found in many common fruits (raspberries, strawberries, pomegranate), may one day help prevent wrinkles.
These and other potentially helpful compounds are produced and accumulated in plants. Many of these, such as the flavonoid group, have been studied extensively for their health benefits. Most have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer effects. Recently, studies have been performed using phytochemicals topically on the skin to reverse or prevent sun damage.

Obese Women's Newborns Have More Birth Defects
The fetuses of obese women have an increased risk of birth defects such as spina bifida and other neural tube defects, a recent analysis of previous studies showed.
Obesity is at epidemic proportions in the United States and in increasing numbers of countries around the world. Complications from the condition threaten to overwhelm the health-care system. For example, some evidence suggests that pregnant obese women are more prone to give birth to babies with abnormalities, known as congenital anomalies. Such abnormalities contribute significantly to stillbirth, infant death, preterm birth and childhood illnesses. ( Read more about Obese Women's Newborns Have More Birth Defects) |

How Sleep Apnea Can Cause a Stroke
Obstructive sleep apnea decreases blood flow to the brain and causes changes in the brain that increase sufferers' risk of suffering from a stroke or dying in their sleep, according to a study published by The American Physiological Society. The decreased blood flow to the brain causes elevated blood pressure within the brain that eventually harms the brain's ability to modulate these changes and prevent damage to itself.

About 5% are hereditary, and the rest are spontaneous. There are different types of dementia, of which vascular dementia is the largest component. We also know that patients with atherosclerotic risk factors and history of stroke have the highest risk for AD. ( Read more about Expert Commentary: Steven Park, M.D. 3/9/2010) |
