Firefighters Show Fasting Diets Can Work for Shift Workers
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- "Time-restricted" eating is a popular way to lose weight, and a new study suggests it can offer shift-workers a way to eat more healthfully.Time-restricted eating is a form of intermittent fasting, where people limit themselves to eating within a certain time window each day. Outside of that window, they swear off everything other than calorie-free drinks.Time restriction has become a popular weight-loss strategy, largely because it's simple. Instead of counting calories, people only have to watch the clock. And small studies have shown that narrow eating windows — six hours being a popular one — can help people shed some pounds.There is also some evidence of benefits other than weight loss, according to Dr. Pam Taub, a cardiologist and...
Medical Groups Urge Protections for Health Workers...
5 October 2022
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Three leading medical groups have asked the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate growing threats to doctors, hospitals and families providing and seeking gender-affirming care.In a letter to U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), American Medical Association (AMA) and Children's Hospital Association (CHA) called for swift action to investigate and prosecute all organizations and individuals involved."Whether it's newborns receiving intensive care, children getting cancer treatments or families accessing compassionate care for their transgender adolescents, all patients seeking treatment deserve to get the care they need without fear for their personal safety," said AAP President Dr. Moira...
Coldplay Suspends Tour Over Chris Martin's 'Serious Lung...
5 October 2022
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- The band Coldplay said Wednesday that it has to postpone several shows in Brazil because its lead singer, Chris Martin, has a “serious lung infection" and must rest for the next three weeks. The band made the announcement on its website and social media.“We’re optimistic that Chris will return to good health after the prescribed medical break and look forward to resuming the tour as soon as possible,†the band said in its statement. “To everyone affected, please accept our sincere apologies, and thank you as always for your love and support.â€Coldplay apologized for any “disappointment and inconvenience,†but said the band needs to prioritize Martin's health.“We’re working as fast as possible to lock in the new dates and...
Yoga, Mindfulness Could Be Powerful Tools to Manage...
5 October 2022
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Yoga, meditation and other mindfulness practices may help people with type 2 diabetes lower their blood sugar — nearly to the degree that standard medications like metformin do, a new analysis suggests.That does not mean people should swap their medication for meditation. The trials in the analysis all tested body-mind practices as an addition to standard diabetes treatment — not as a replacement for it.That caveat made, the researchers said mindfulness is worth a try."We could use all the tools we can get for [managing] type 2 diabetes," said researcher Fatimata Sanogo, a PhD student at the University of Southern California's Keck School of Medicine, in Los Angeles.In the United States alone, over 37 million people have diabetes, the...
Severe Food Allergies Can Traumatize Kids, But New Program Helps Ease Fears
5 October 2022
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- For a young child with life-threatening food allergies "the world looks like a minefield," a New Jersey mother says.It's a stress-filled landscape that financial adviser Amy Leis knows all too well. Her daughter Zoe was just a few months old when she suffered her first serious reaction to food, a potentially deadly event known as anaphylactic shock."I was terrified," Leis recalled. "I had been baking cupcakes, and I gave her a taste, and she started turning blue."In short order, Zoe was diagnosed with congenital allergies to a broad range of foods. Eggs, dairy, peanuts and tree nuts were pegged as potentially lethal. Soy, wheat, seafood and shellfish were all deemed no-nos.Ever since, the stakes couldn't be higher. So like millions of...
AHA News: Abuse, Neglect in Childhood May Increase Heart Failure Risk as an Adult
5 October 2022
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, 2022 (American Heart Association News) -- Childhood trauma, especially physical abuse, might increase the risk of heart failure later in life, according to new research.Past studies have found a connection between traumatic experiences in childhood and cardiovascular disease and other health problems. But there's been little research on a specific link to heart failure, in which the heart can't pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. Heart failure affects about 6 million U.S. adults.Researchers looked at data from 153,287 adults in the United Kingdom and zeroed in on which participants experienced childhood maltreatment – defined in the study as physical abuse, physical neglect, emotional abuse, emotional neglect and sexual abuse. The study also examined...
CDC Warns of Possible Severe Flu Season Ahead
5 October 2022
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- Australia is experiencing its worst flu season in five years, and that doesn’t bode well for the United States, federal health officials warned Tuesday.America's flu season often mirrors what unfolds in Australia, where winter spans April through October.Making matters worse, only 49% of Americans plan to get a flu shot during the 2022-2023 flu season, according to a new survey of more than 1,000 people by the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases (NFID). In addition, one in five people at higher risk of developing serious flu-related complications aren’t planning to get vaccinated this year, the survey showed.“We don’t know exactly what to expect this flu season, but we do know the best way to prevent flu is to get vaccinated...
Half of Cases of Childhood Blindness in U.S. Didn't Have to Happen
5 October 2022
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, 2022 (HealthDay News) -- More than half of sightless children in the United States did not have to lose their vision, according to a new study.The findings suggest the need to prioritize addressing preventable vision loss in all children in America, said study co-author Dr. Scott Lambert, a professor of ophthalmology at Stanford University in California. He recalled the story of a child diagnosed with cataracts at 3 weeks old. English was not the parents' first language. Despite near weekly calls, it took eight months to get a referral for surgery, even though the baby was insured though Medicaid, Lambert said.Researchers analyzed the IRIS Registry, which has comprehensive data on eye disease. They found that leading causes of childhood blindness appear to be...
