What is a herniated disc and what can you do about it?
So what in the world is a Herniated Disc??? Well, rather than confuse you more, I am going to give you my simple, easy to understand definition…
a herniated disc is simply a protrusion, or sticking out of the disc. Think of a disc as a balloon being held in place between your hands… if you push your hands together unevenly the balloon will bulge out on the opposite side. This is what happens to the disc between the vertebrae.
A Bulging Disc is the same thing as a herniated disc… just a different name.
Herniated discs are probably one of the most common diagnosis’s for back ...

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...
Genetic Testing Still Smart Choice
Screening embryos for genetic diseases during in vitro fertilization offers couples the best chance for a healthy child, but a genetic glitch could potentially cause doctors to misdiagnose a small fraction of them, University of Florida scientists say. Citing concerns about the accuracy of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, the method a number of practitioners use to pick the healthiest embryos during IVF, UF scientists set out to study the procedure. Their work, described during a recent meeting of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, reveals the technique is actually highly reliable. But because there is a slim chance a genetic abnormality can cause doctors to misdiagnose embryos, some concerns still need to be addressed, the scientists said.......

DNA Profiling: Its Uses in Court
Stronger evidence in courtrooms—it’s what every attorney, defendant, and plaintiff dreams of. Beginning in the last 1980s, this is exactly what began to surface through DNA profiling.
In addition to the one-of-a-kind pattern engraved on our fingers, each of us possesses a unique identifier that is built within our bodies. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the genetic blueprint that determines our biological characteristics. DNA is a long molecule located in almost every cell in the human body. When we are conceived, we inherit half of our DNA from our mother and half from our fat ...
