Are foods, like drugs, addictive? A new study seems to have reached that conclusion.
Some people who drink coffee may have a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
Sad people may be able to feel happy if they make themselves laugh. Laughter yoga is a new fad that seems to be catching on.
Is progress being made on treating Lou Gehrig’s disease? Here’s an article on some recent research.
Herceptin may now be used in some breast cancer cases.
Onions and garlic may be one component in preventing colon, ovarian, and throat cancers.
Children taking atypical antipsychotics like Zyprexa and Risperdal may gain weight as an unwanted side effect. The diabetes drug metformin may help.
