Diet Sodas Don’t Help You Lose Weight!

They actually make your gain weight as well as make you depressed! Why? Because of the artificial sweeteners used, such as aspartame, and they are also giving you a variety of medical issues…

If you want a soda, the best would be an organic soda from a health food store but if you must have a soda, drink a regular soda. If you were to stop drinking diet soda all together, and drank regular soda, you would actually lose weight!!!

The idea that diet sodas have less calories, thus are good for weight control, is a lie! The exact opposite is true.

And remember, all carbonated drinks block calcium absorption.

Major Confusion on How to Do Breast Checks

Is there a right way to check your breasts for early signs of cancer? Many women remain confused as experts now say there is no evidence that rigorous monthly “self-examination” — widely recommended in the United States — reduces breast cancer deaths. Plus, it can lead to unnecessary biopsies.

Two large studies looking at a total of more than 388,000 women found that death rates from breast cancer were the same among women who rigorously self-examined as those who did not, while there were almost twice the number of biopsy operations in the self-examination group.

According to some experts, the best way for a woman to check her breasts is not to follow a strict examination routine, but to get to know what is normal, and feel them regularly for signs of any changes. [Read more...]
