Did You Know...The FDA...Conflict of interest?
Keeping you informed!
The FDA's advisory boards, which vote on drugs and devices, are intended to represent a broad spectrum of physicians, researchers and patient advocates--not stockholders. But a study published in JAMA in 2006 found that in 22 percent of the advisory board meetings, more than half the members had direct financial interests in the companies whose medical products they evaluated, or their rivals.

Condition of the Week: Back Pain
Help someone today who has Back Pain!
7 out of 10 people are bothered by back pain. Waking up stiff and sore in the morning is a warning sign. Decreasing your level of activity, taking pain killers or feeling tired and sore at the day's end are signs that something isn't right with your spine. Why do so many people experience back pain? Because even though we are taught at an early age to have our teeth, eyes and ears checked, no one ever taught us to have our spine checked!

Nutrition Myths---Don't Be Fooled
Myth #5-Alzheimer's is a result of old age.
Chemicals, obesity and smoking have all been linked to Alzheimer's, not old age! A study at University of Alabama found that mice that drank the equivalent of five sodas a day for six months did worse on memory tasks than those who drank water. They also had more than twice the amount of plaque in their brains and gained 17 percent more weight than the others. Also, in another study toxins were found to cause Alzheimer's in baby monkeys. These monkeys were exposed to lead and showed Alzheimer's like symptoms and plaque years later. This is a good reason to get a Hair Mineral Analysis...as is EPA approved to detect toxic metals in the body. Ask the doctors, Dr. Cimperman or Dr. Gallagher if this test is right for you!
