Soy Cools Hot Flashes

Published: October 10, 2012
Categories:

Researchers at the University of Delaware recently reviewed the results of 19 studies on soy and hot flashes, involving more than 1,200 women, and found that eating two servings a day of soy for just six weeks reduced the frequency of hot flashes by 21% and the severity of them by 26%. Eating soy for 12 weeks boosted those benefits three-fold.

"If you're 50 and you've never touched soy, it's not too late," said Melissa Melby, PhD, the study leader. "We've found that it still helps."

Scientists "Discover" Brain Fog During Menopause

Published: October 10, 2012
Categories:

Many women in their 40s and 50s experience bouts of forgetfulness and "brain fog" (poor concentration). Too often, doctors dismiss those problems. Hey, catch up to the science, MDs. A new study proves they're real.

Researchers at the University of Rochester Medical Center and the University of Illinois at Chicago tested 75 women from age 40 to 60, and found many of the women had problems with "working memory" (the ability to take in new information and manipulate it, like figuring out a tip) and with concentration on a challenging task (like doing your taxes).

At Midlife, Women Need More Vitamin D

Published: October 10, 2012
Categories:

A European study of more than 3,000 women aged 45 to 68 found that many were deficient in vitamin D, with the average intake only 39% of the RDA.

Bottom line: Optimize vitamin D levels with a high-potency vitamin powder that contains at least 2,000 IU of vitamin D. And spend at least 10 to 15 minutes outdoors every day. Sunshine sparks the body's production of vitamin D.

Remember: Avoid sunburn, not sunshine!

Published: October 10, 2012
Categories:

If your immune system is on the ropes — a very common scenario for tens of millions of sleep-deprived, stress-battered and nutrient-deficient Americans — just about any infection can trigger post-infectious chronic fatigue syndrome. And a new study has added another infection to the list: Giardia, a waterborne parasite that can cause severe GI upset called "Giardia gastroenteritis."

Is Eating Fish Bad for You? It Depends

Published: October 10, 2012
Categories:

In a study of 84,493 women, eating baked or broiled fish at least five times a week decreased the risk of heart failure by 30%. Unfortunately, fried fish (like the kind sold in many fast food restaurants), even only once a week, was found to increase the risk of heart failure by 48%. So if you're eating fried fish for the health benefits, you're wasting your time!

Sugar and Sodas Can Cause Diabetes

Published: October 10, 2012
Categories:

In a study of 43,960 African-American women, the incidence of type 2 diabetes was found to be higher with higher intake of both sugar-sweetened soft drinks and fruit drinks. Drinking at least 2 soft drinks per day was associated with a 24% increased risk of type 2 diabetes, and consumption of at least 2 fruit drinks per day was associated with a 31% increase. Sadly, sugar loaded "fruit drinks" are often marketed as a healthier alternative to soft drinks. With regards to fruit drinks, the authors state, "The public should be made aware that these drinks are not a healthy alternative to soft drinks with regard to risk of type 2 diabetes."
