Help Kids Close their Fitness Gap

Apr 05, 2011 02:03AM ● By James DeFillips

Schools around the country and here in Florida provide much less time for physical education than children received twenty years ago. Even our governor’s recent law mandating 150 minutes per week for elementary students falls short of the exercise our kids need each day. With video games, texting, downloading, You Tubing, and My Spacing so rampant today, our children need exercise now more than ever.

Go Organic for Healthy Kids

Apr 05, 2011 01:57AM

Can you remember being stung by mosquitoes or bitten by no-see-ums? Can you remember the irritation and agitation you felt? The effect of pesticides and herbicides on your child’s central nervous system is a similar experience. Thousands of little cells in your child’s body feel as though they are being swarmed upon and the result is an agitated, irritated child. We would never allow our children to come into contact with anything that comes in a container that said "Keep out of reach of children," yet we allow them to eat fruits and vegetables that have come into contact with the contents of those containers.

Natural Treatments in Brevard County

Apr 05, 2011 01:53AM ● By Holly Fales

Although medication for ADHD eases some of the symptoms while it is in effect, it does not improve the condition of the brain or produce any recovery of skills. Safer methods of treatment exist that can improve how the brain functions for attention and learning. These methods can improve attention and learning skills at a functional level, which may reduce or eliminate the need for medication. Improving these skills can help your child thrive in school and have a more successful outcome for their adult life. These neurotechnologies are not just offered in big cities, they are available here in Brevard County. Check with your insurance company as some plans provide coverage.

Apr 05, 2011 01:51AM

According to a study published in The Annals of Pharmacotherapy, various doses of ginger were used to treat women during their first and second trimesters of pregnancy.

Sleep is Good for the Heart

Apr 05, 2011 01:49AM ● By Dr. Claire Stagg

Recent evidence suggests that sleep problems increase the risk of metabolic syndrome, a set of medical conditions (e.g., high blood pressure, high cholesterol and abdominal obesity) that may cause cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Now a new study in the journal Internal Medicine finds that sleep disordered breathing (SDB) — for example, snoring and sleep apnea — is closely related to metabolic syndrome in cardiovascular patients. The study involved 195 patients with cardiovascular disease, 56 of whom had metabolic syndrome, who underwent assessments for sleep disordered breathing. The results showed that patients with metabolic syndrome were more than twice as likely as those without it to have sleep disordered breathing.
