Foods that Support a Healthy Prostate

For a long time scientists believed genetics was the underlying reason for the higher incidence of prostate-related discomforts among men living in “western” countries. But after further study, scientists began to believe that diet and lifestyle may play a more crucial role in prostate health than we ever thought.

The western diet consists of more red meat and saturated fats. Typically, vegetables, fruits and whole grains comprise a very minimal part of the western diet.

In contrast, eastern cultures enjoy a diet that consists predominantly of vegetables, more whole-grained foods and less meat. Globalization, however, has exported the “western” diet to other parts of the world, and today the incidence of prostate health discomforts is gradually rising for Asian men, as well.

Aging is inevitable. It’s one of the permanent things in this world. But just because it’s unavoidable doesn’t mean we just leave it to take its natural course. There’s no reason to associate aging with pain, wrinkles, wasted look, and most especially dull smile. After all, a bright smile is an indication of good health and youth.

One quick beauty tip: regular visits to your dentist in Newport Beach can do a lot in boosting your youthful look. Remember that aging gracefully is more than skin-deep. Good oral health also does a lot in aging and preventing health issues linked to aging such as heart diseases, diabetes, and stroke.

Of course, brushing and flossing helps in keeping your oral health healthy, but even if you’ve been a diligent brusher and visitor of your dentist, there are other habits you do that affect your teeth and mouth. Read on to find out which habits to do and not to do to keep a healthy smile.

1. Drinking and brushing. Brushing after mealtime is important. But there is an exception to the rule: don’t clean your teeth after drinking acidic beverages such as soda and wine. Brushing right after drinking acidic beverages will erode the tooth enamel. So, instead of brushing immediately, sip water or chew gums instead. This will help saliva production to neutralize acid in the mouth.

2. Use a straw. Soda junkies should practice this at all time. Acids in juices, sports drink, and sodas erode teeth enamel. Sipping with straws help limit contact of acid in the mouth. Read the rest of this entry »

Breast Health – The Great Debate!

Recently the news has been overloaded with information and opinions over women’s health and mortality as it relates to the use of mammography and self breast exams. With all of this information it is hard to find out what women should do to care for their body.

What are the guidelines to follow? Recent studies have documented that there is little to no link between self breast exams, mammograms and the actual mortality rate of women with breast cancer. In this article we will focus not on the answer to that enormous question, but on the ambiguity behind that statement.

It has been the standard provided by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) that women 40 or older have a mammogram with or without a clinical breast exam every 1-2 years to maintain proper breast health. This recommendation was based on two factors. (1) Clinical studies in women 50-69 demonstrated a 30% reduction in the breast cancer mortality rate when screened annually or biannually (http://www.acpm.org/breast.htm) and (2) the assumption that a women’s breast tissue at the age of 40 would yield similar results.

Unfortunately a similar correlation has yet to be found, prompting the new assertion that a women should wait until 50 to have her first mammogram. But is this right? Can one assume tissue changes occur in every woman at a specific age? And why is it important to this debate? Read the rest of this entry »
