| Nigeria: How Electromolecular Medicine Cures Ailments
Medical scientists have ingeniously developed a device that could be used in the treatment of ailments without the use of the conventional drugs. Depth-empulse is an electromagnetic device that heals four times faster than any known technology or drugs. Godwin Haruna writes It is a novel device invented by Dr. Glenn Gordon, an American, as a curative therapy. Designed Electromagnetic Pulsed Therapy (DEPTH) has been found superior to drugs in the treatment of many conditions as diverse as arthritis, fractures, low back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome and many others. According to Dr. Tony Didigu, an associate of Gordon in Nigeria, the device is the only professional electromagnetic fields therapy in the world that speeds up free radical neutralisation by antioxidants 100 times faster and affects tissue restoration and repair four times faster than any other known technology or drugs.
More Employers to Offer Workers Financial Incentives for Healthy Behavior
With continuing pressure to control health care costs, more companies plan to offer financial incentives to reward workers who adopt healthy lifestyles, according to a new survey by Watson Wyatt, a leading global consulting firm, and the National Business Group on Health, a non-profit association of 285 large employers. Those employers best controlling costs and increasing productivity are integrating a broad array of health management programs. .
K.P. WARAN: Look sharp and think positive
IT is not every day that two pretty women insist on dropping by to see me at the same time. Despite the overlapping appointments, I decided to let it ride, especially since there was a trayload of appraisals to be done during the latter part of the day. Wendy Lee is someone I met a couple of weeks ago when we ended up with back-to-back speaking engagements at the 1 Utama shopping centre. Wendy was giving the 400 retailers tips on corporate image grooming and how to improve customer service.
I had a presentation on how best to use newspapers to promote events, products and services. At the end of the programme, we chatted about how enjoyable our work was and the immense pleasure we got from meeting people.
I found Wendy's boundless energy, invigorating personality, positive outlook on life, including deriving happiness and joy from the most basic things in life, very exciting.
Corzine's a turkey to state workers used to Friday off
Governor Corzine, you are the blackguard who ruined Black Friday. You are a political Scrooge who ordered thousands of us underappreciated (and slightly hung over) Bob Cratchits back to work tomorrow just to score some points with voters. It's anti-family. It's anti-shopping. It's anti-American. These sentiments seethe through a sampling of the 2,500 e-mails from New Jersey government state workers sent to the governor, protesting his refusal to declare the Friday after Thanksgiving a paid day off. Corzine's decision bucks a decades-old tradition that has morphed into a de facto entitlement. The excerpts, provided by Corzine's office at the request of The Record, reverberate with shock, disbelief and a sense of betrayal that a pro-labor, liberal Democrat -- their guy, for goodness' sake -- would stoop so low.
Experts Report Progress In Food Allergy Prevention And Diet Restrictions
Progress has been made in food allergy prevention and management according to investigators presenting the latest research at the Annual Meeting of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) in Dallas. Important research findings may impact diet restrictions of food allergic patients.
According to Robert A. Wood, M.D., professor of pediatrics and international health director, pediatric allergy and immunology at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, research has determined a possible role for allergy prevention strategies. These approaches include maternal food avoidance in pregnancy, breast feeding, maternal food avoidance while breast feeding, use of hypoallergenic formulas, delayed introduction of allergenic foods and probiotics.
"A review of 18 studies demonstrates a significant protective effect of exclusive breastfeeding for at least three months for children with high risk for atopy (genetic tendency to develop allergic diseases) against the development of atopic dermatitis and early childhood asthma-like symptoms," he said.
Cultural habits influence oral cancers
Clinicians from the USC School of Dentistry unravel connection between the incidence of oral cancer and race and ethnicity-- as part of first epidemiological study of oral cancer in California. Dr. Satish Kumar and Dr.Parish Sedghizadeh, clinical professors in the school's Division of Diagnostic Sciences, gleaned through 20 years of records from the California Cancer Registry (CCR)-the state's cancer surveillance database-for the incidence rates of invasive squamous cell carcinoma, the most common form of oral cancer. Their findings will be published in an upcoming issue of the journal Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology and Endodontology and are currently available online at www.ooooe.net. Kumar and Sedghizadeh theorized that groups who engaged in these high-risk behaviors would also experience higher rates of oral cancer.
