  • Hair Loss Factors
    What are the factors that contribute to hair loss? I know I have friends and relative that have suffered hair loss, but they are so different. As I checked into it farther, I found that there are a lot of factors that can contribute to hair loss. Some are natural and others are not caused by natural factors. It seems that there are as many hair loss factors as there are individuals. However, there are some main factors that contribute to a majority of cases.


    Perhaps the most common factor in hair loss is genetics. Likely when you hear the words “hair loss,” you think of male pattern ...

  • A Look at Microdermabrasion Machines
    Microdermabrasion systems are safe for most all skin types. Microdermabrasion systems actually evolved from a process known as dermabrasion. Though effective, especially for serious dermis scarring, dermabrasion is harsh, requiring a metallic re-surfacing tool, anesthesia, and long recovery times. Microdermabrasion systems, however, gently smooth signs of aging, sun damage, and scarring with micro-crystal creams. The beauty of micro-crystal creams is how powerfully they polish the skin, but remains gentle and forgiving.

    A special cleansing device circulates a cream, infused with tiny e ...

    Routine Genetic Testing For Cancer Risk Not Recommended
    The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends against routine referral of all women for genetic counseling and DNA testing to detect the presence of specific BRCAl and BRCA2 gene mutations that may be associated with breast or ovarian cancers, according to a Sept 5, 2005, news release from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. If a woman has certain specific family history patterns that put her at risk for these gene mutations, however, her primary care physician should suggest counseling and possible DNA testing. The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes help control normal cell growth. Women who inherit specific changes or mutations in one or both of these genes have a greater risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer, especially if...

  • The DNA of Motivation

    It really is about motivation. After all, what impels someone to climb a mountain, or go to college, or save for a car, or learn a new language or anything of a thousand things? What is it that moves someone to action from a position of comfortable stasis? The answer is motivation. Motivation is the process of stimulating you to action. It takes a need, desire or some other impulse and incites a response. Motivation is the high-octane fuel of success and, as such, it’s vital that individuals and teams capitalize on its power.

    Often motivation seems to occur spontaneously -- ...

  • Understanding Nutrition
    With the release of the new dietary guidelines, in the form of the new food pyramid, I still find that many people don't actually understand what nutrition actually means. Because of this, dietary choices can seem overwhelming. Even greater confusion can be generated by prime time news specials which only strive to educate through clever sound-bites and diet fads which lead some to believe that all of their answers are found in one single "magic food." So what is nutrition and how can you understand it in a way that helps you apply it to your life and to the benefit of those you know and love? ...

  • THE ETIOLOGY OF DIABETES MELLITUS
    Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by relative or absolute deficiency of insulin, resulting in glucose intolerance. It occurs in 4-5 million persons in the United States (approximately 2% of the population). The classic symptoms of diabetes mellitus result from abnormal glucose metabolism. The lack of insulin activity results in failure of transfer of glucose from the plasma into the cells. This situation so called “starvation in the midst of plenty”. The body responds as if it were in the fasting state, with stimulation of glucogenolysis, gluconeogenesis and lipolysis produc ...
