In Vitro Fertilization Improves
Clinical results from Down Under suggest that recent advances in in-vitro fertilization (IVF) can double the chances of having a baby for women in their early 40s. And the success rate for this group is increasing faster than any other's.
The successes resulted from improved media for culturing embryos and a better technique for selecting those with the best chances for developing in a healthy manner, said Peter Illingworth, president of the Fertility Society of Australia. The new procedure involved transferring embryos into recipient women at the blastocyst stage (five or six days after fertilization), rather than at the cleavage stage (two to three days after). This allowed doctors to better assess which embryos had the best survival chances. (Read more about In Vitro Fertilization Improves) |

The Healing Influence of Religiousness
Study after study over the years has shown that practicing one's religion - with all of the persistence and sincerity that demands - inevitably leads to improved health and ability to recover from illness.
For example, a 1987-95 research investigation of 21,000 Americans found that those who attended worship services more than once a week experienced a seven-year greater life span than their counterparts who never attended such services.
Epidemiologist Jeff Levin, who wrote the book God, Faith and Health, conducted studies showing that older adults who thought of themselves as religious had better overall health than the faith-less. (Read more about The Healing Influence of Religiousness) |

The Truth About Colds and Flus
A cold or the flu is often a tiring, aggravating experience. But the next time you're suffering from one, remember this: allowing your body to rest while allowing the cold or flu to run its course is actually good for your long term health.
Conventional medicine and the pharmaceutical industry would like you to believe there is no "cure" for the common cold, that you should protect yourself from the flu with vaccines laden with toxic chemicals, and that it is favorable to ease symptoms with a variety of medications.
However, all three of these positions lack an understanding of what colds and flus really are, and what they mean for your body. (Read more about The Truth About Colds and Flus) |

Schallhorn, at a Berlin meeting of the European Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons.

Injectable Fillers Produce Youthful Appearance
The latest strategy to overcome wrinkles, sagging facial flesh, bony hands and flappy earlobes is under-the-skin injections of cosmetic fillers with exotic names like Restylane, Radiesse, Sculptra, ArteFill, Juvéderm, Ultra Plus and Perlane.
The idea behind all of these fillers is to inject an organic chemical, such as poly-L-lactic acid (in the case of Sculptra) or hyaluronic acid (in the case of Restylane) - which have been approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration - to plump up the skin. This erases wrinkles, lines, jowls, creases and the like - for a period of time. (Read more about Injectable Fillers Produce Youthful Appearance) |
