For many individuals, allergies related to the blossoming of a variety of plant materials during the spring months can be quite miserable. However, if your Spring time allergies are so bad that they possibly influence where spend your vacations or perhaps even where you choose to live, a recent report from the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America just may be of interest to you.

The recently published report details the 100 worst United States cities for allergy sufferers, and Knoxville, Tennessee is topping the list for the third consecutive year. In fact, individuals who routinely suffer from severe allergies may be wise to stay away from the southern portion of the Unites States entirely, based on the data provided by the report, as the vast majority of the cities belong to states such as Texas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Kansas, and Oklahoma, to name a few.

In the battle against cancer, preventative measures – particularly those that are inexpensive and immediately available – are some of the best tools at our disposal.

Virtually everyone is familiar with the commonly discussed benefits of aspirin, to relieve headaches and cold symptoms, reduce arthritis pain, and to reduce the probability of suffering from a heart attach.

However, a growing body of scientific evidence indicates that aspirin may be beneficial in addressing another medical condition and could be worth adding to the “preventative toolbox” within the anti-cancer arsenal. In fact, new studies suggest that taking a single low-dose aspirin a day for cancer can help to prevent and potentially even treat cancer.
