Breast Feeding Benefits Moms, Not Just Babies
It’s commonly understood for literally hundreds of years that breast-feeding provides a large number of health benefits to babies, ranging from improved growth and development, both physically and mentally, to increased resistance to infection and disease.
As recent as two days ago, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released an updated policy statement reaffirming its stance that breast milk is the single most complete nutritional source for infants.
The American Academy of Pediatrics policy statement also included a collection of clinical evidence concluding that the health benefits associated with breast feeding are not just for babies, but for mothers as well.

Behavior Change Programs Improve Well-Being, Study Shows
Living in the so-called “information age” has produced an environment where it is easy to become overwhelmed with all of the media, technology, and data that is available. Because of this, it has become increasingly difficult to find the time to decompress as it seems like we are always having to remain engaged and respond through either email, social media, texting and yes, even the phone. The end result, it has become increasingly easy to feel overwhelmed and “stressed-out”.
A recently published study that was presented in Philadelphia at the Population Health and Care Coordination Colloquium shows that behavior change programs known as computer-tailored intervention (CTI) programs offer real, measurable results for average participants in targeted areas such as stress management and exercise dedication.
In addition to gains in these areas, researchers found that participants made major strides in other aspects of well-being including healthy behaviors, life evaluation and improving health, both mentally and physically.

Adult Acne in Women More Common than in Men, Study Shows
Although acne is typically thought of as a problem primarily faced by teens, it’s common knowledge that many adults develop and struggle with acne as well.
Acne is usually of result of excessive bacteria buildup, excess skin oil production and improper sloughing off of dead skin cells, though diet and other factors play a role as well, indicating that the best acne treatment for some individuals may be a simple change in eating habits.
According to a recently published study found in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, gender is yet another contributing factor to acne risk. In fact, the study shows that adult acne is more common among women than men for all age groups over 20.

Synthetic Pot is Far More Dangerous than Real Marijuana
If you are the parent of a teenager or pre-teen, you have a long list of dangerous drug trends to be concerned about, ranging from prescription pills such as Xanax and Oxycontin to illegal drugs to bath salts and even huffing of toxic substances.
Unfortunately, many of the illicit substances and drugs that are most popular with kids today are not purchased on the street, but instead found under your bathroom sink, in your medicine cabinet or at the local gas station.
Another easily-obtainable substance for parents to discuss with their children is synthetic marijuana, a legal drug that (in most states) medical experts agree is far more dangerous than real marijuana due to horrifying synthetic pot side effects.

Frequent Migraines Increase Depression Risk for Women
We are all familiar with having a common headache and the affects that they can have on us. From a continual throbbing to pain behind the eyes to even a stiffening of the neck, the severity of each headache, and for each individual, can vary. However, migraine headaches can be much more severe and, in some instances, literally debilitating.
According to recent research examining 14 years of medical data, women who experience frequent migraine headaches are more likely to develop depression.
Dr. Timothy A. Collins, a neurologist and headache and migraine treatment researcher at Duke University Medical Center who was not directly involved in the study, said that the study “confirms” what experts have long believed.
