Researchers say they may have yet another reason to convince Americans to
cut the fat in their diet.
Most people already know a low fat diet will help decrease their chances of
heart disease and cancer.
Now scientists at the University of Wisconsin say that it may also decrease
the chances of blindness
They say diets rich in saturated fat and cholesterol seem to increase the
risk of macular degeneration by 80%. This deteriorating condition is the most
common cause of blindness in Senior Citizens.
A safe and non-addictive pain killer could be a step closer to reality.
The opiates heroin and morphine
are commonly caused to ease extreme pain-- but they are addictive. Now doctors
in France say they've found a chemical in the brain that seems to increase the
sensitivity to pain.
the discovery could lead to the development of a drug to block this chemical--
and therefore pain, without causing addiction.

It may be music to our ears, but it could be havoc to their eyes.
A new study says that brass musicians suffer sharp increases in eye
pressure while playing high notes-- putting them at high risk for glaucoma and
blindness which can be caused by
increased eye pressure.
Scientists say the pressure increases when musician strains to force air
through the instrument.
Of the 30 people tested, eye pressure was the highest among trumpet and french
horn players.
Pregnant women should worry less about one thing. Stillbirth. A study
published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that the chance of
delivering a stillborn baby has declined 70% over the past three decades. They
speculate this decline is due to improved pre-natal care but older women still
run a much higher risk of still birth than younger women.
Though they say that all women now have an excellent chance of having a
healthy baby.

If you're on a diet and you can't remember what you had for lunch, don't be

British researchers say dieting is bad for a person's memory and powers of
concentration.
But apparently the dip in mental performance has nothing to do with poor
nutrition.
Rather one expert says it's all psychological-- as dieters get
anxious thinking about food and come up short on faculties for daily tasks.
