Among participants of an international trial called INVEST, those who often used NSAIDs such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin and others), naproxen (Aleve, Naprosyn, and others), or celecoxib (Celebrex) were 47% more likely to have had a heart attack or stroke or to have died for any reason over three years of follow-up than those who used the drugs less, or not at all. The results were published in the July issue of the American Journal of Medicine. Millions of people take NSAIDs to relieve pain and inflammation. They are generally safe and effectiv...

It’s impossible to guarantee a life free of bumps and bruises, but having a healthy savings account can prevent a little owwie from turning into a huge, festering wound. Starting a nest egg is not just sound financial planning, it’s also a way to show love to yourself and to re-examine your relationship with money and material things. As you look for ways to cut expenses and boost your savings, it’s likely you’ll learn a lot about what you value and what you fear. Don’t put off savings until you’re earning more money. Even putting aside as little as five dollars a week will help you become more disciplined and give you enough to handle little emergencies. As your financial situation improves, you’ll be ...

You can invest in three ways – your health, your network, and your knowledge, and all three are necessary to be successful.” Wiser words have never been spoken. Investing in yourself is the true way to improve yourself. If you trade your time and effort now for increased skills or knowledge, relationships, and better health, your results will multiply in the future. While we all have to do what is necessary and proper to maintain equilibrium – keep working at our jobs, for instance – we should be leveraging our ...

Subscribe to The Alzheimer's Reading Room--via Email Researchers want to see if the drug can slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease by blocking the amyloid precursor protein, which causes the brain cells to stop working. Amyloid beta peptide is the primary protein found in amyloid plaques in the brains of patients with Alzheimer’s disease. It is expected that by blocking the formation of this pe...

Robert first caught my eye, because it's Thanksgiving,  and he gives thanks daily for blessings such as friends … family … heath … and freedom! No wonder he wins! There’s more too.
