Insidermedicine in 60 – July 22, 2009
From Pittsburgh – According to research presented to the Society for the Study of Reproduction, a mother’s health around the time of conception may influence a child’s disease risk. In a review of animal studies, researchers found that factors such as a high-fat diet and vitamin B and folate deficiencies could result in conditions such as insulin resistance, obesity and cardiovascular disease among offspring. From the Netherlands – According to research in the Annals of Internal Medicine, online self-management may help improve asthma symptoms. In a study of 200 patients, researchers found that asthma control, lung function and symptom-free days improved among those who participated in a self-management program. However, the program did not reduce the number of asthma attacks that occurred. And finally, from Boston – According to research in the Journal of the American Medical Association, a healthy lifestyle can protect men from heart disease. In a study of nearly 21000 men, researchers found that those who adhered to at least 4 healthy lifestyle factors such as normal weight, not smoking, regular exercise, moderate alcohol intake and consumption of breakfast cereals and fruits and vegetables, had a lower risk of heart failure than those who did not.

Asthma Walk PSA
The American Lung Association®, can give you close to 20 million reasons why we need to “Blow the Whistle on Asthma” and how you can help fight the asthma epidemic. Close to 20 million Americans currently have asthma. You probably know someone who suffers from this chronic disease. It could be a family member, a young child, a co-worker, a neighbor or maybe even you. Asthma isn’t always obvious; you can’t always tell an Asthma sufferer from looking at them. Though you cannot always see asthma, you can see and count its devastating effects. Asthma is responsible for over 14 million lost school days in children. Even more frightening is the fact that asthma can be fatal; over 4000 deaths are attributed to asthma annually. The economic cost of asthma is unbelievable – over .1 billion dollars is spent annually. Asthma Walk is a nation wide effort to bring attention to this devastating chronic illness. We know a lot about asthma, but there is so much we don’t know. Your participation will raise the funds necessary to provide education and research so we can better control asthma and soon find a cure.
