Students can just walk into Bears Den or Cafe Bergson and pick something that says Connies Choice on it. They can know theyve made a healthy decision without having to look up the nutrition facts of various items. However, if students do feel the desire to know the breakdown of nutrients in the foods they are consuming, they can visit the Dining Services website at diningservices.wustl.edu, which has a link to daily menus for all eateries on campus as well as the related nutritional information. Returning students may have noticed some changes within Dining Services enacted over this past summer, such as the addition of vegetables to the pasta action station in Bears Den; an expansion of available vegetarian proteins such as tofu, beans and soy meat; a frozen yogurt machine in Whispers Cafe; new Mediterranean food options at Ursas Fireside; and new Connies Choice items. Additionally, in an effort to make more dining areas suitable for people with food allergies and intolerances, peanuts have been removed from all dishes and open containers of peanut butter have been removed from all food preparation areas, with the exception of the Cherry Tree Cafe. Basically, we follow what the students do and then change accordingly, said Diekman.

The retired health department executive also supports a collaborative approach to addressing the mental health needs of the community. Renee Donaldson, director of behavioral health for Advocate BroMenn Medical Center, said talks between providers over the past several years have provided no firm plans for addressing much-needed services, such as housing for chronically mentally ill people. Were very siloed, said Donaldson, referring to the lack of cooperation between health care providers. Donaldson told the group she has serious concerns about the growing shortage of local psychiatrists serving low-income residents.

Now in recovery, Steve moved back home to the Ludington area with an eye toward a career in helping others recover. I feel good about where I landed, said Steve. He enjoys playing gigs locally on a regular basis, and using his personal experience to help others at his day job. Both Mari and Steve say that having lived the recovery experience is a real asset while working with people who have mental illness and substance use disorders. It allows [the people I work with] to relate, said Steve. It makes it easier for them to share their experience. Mari draws on her personal experience very frequently while working with others.

Mental Health Matters: Peers in recovery

Empowerment Services is a peer-run organization, which means that each member of the group has been diagnosed with a mental illness or mental health condition. The group hosted the second annual Utah Peer Conference, where they held sessions on recovery, suicide prevention, diversity, advocacy and crisis intervention. Amanda Thompson, executive director of empowerment services, said the conference helps put a human face on mental health issues. We are people that are diagnosed with a mental health problem, she said. Were your neighbor, your brother, your sister, your wife, your co-worker. You know, were not the scary person you hear about on the news. The conference was sponsored by the Utah State Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health.

and that creates greater costs in the long run,” she said. However, she noted that not all community-based centers have been successful. “Community-based services are all too often underfunded,” Platnick said.

Thomas has worked as a licensed counselor at Calhoun-Cleburne Mental Health for more than three years, mainly with children.

Clinical Studies Show Tfx Flex™ Joint Health Supplement Results In Joint Pain Relief In As Little As Seven Days

Despite its dominance in the industry, glucosamine & chondroitin has recently come under fire from the scientific and medical community with serious questions about the efficacy of this combination for joint pain. A study published in the British Medical Journal in 2010 concluded that, “glucosamine and chondroitin, either taken together or separately, have not shown a clinically significant improvement in joint pain relief for patients troubled with knee or hip osteoarthritis.” [BMJ 2010; 341:c4675]. More recently in 2012, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) denounced joint support claims for glucosamine. The EFSA panel concluded that, “a cause and effect relationship has not been established between the consumption of glucosamine and maintenance of normal joint cartilage in individuals with osteoarthritis.” [EFSA Journal 2012;10(5):2691].

Vitamins and Vitamin Supplements: Use Increases in America

The study, sponsored by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics , found that more than 40 percent of Americans used supplements from 1988 to 1994, and more than one half took vitamins from 2003 to 2006. Multivitamins were found to be the most commonly used supplement. Of particular interest to the researchers were vitamin D, calcium and folic acid supplements. Too Much Hype?

How Vibrations From Snoring May Block Up Your Arteries… And Other Health Problems That Can Have Very Surprising Side-effects

Snoring in kids could mean other problems, doctors say

Some studies suggest high levels of blood fats associated with heart disease may also accelerate the breakdown of bone cartilage – a factor in all types of osteoarthritis, but especially the finger, said lead researcher Dr Mikko Haara, at the University of Kuopio in Finland. ‘There’s also evidence that some sex hormones have an effect in the development of osteoarthritis and heart disease,’ he says. IRREGULAR PERIODS AND DIABETES Up to one in ten women of reproductive age has polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). This not only causes irregular periods and fertility problems, but can increase the risk of developing diabetes. The condition causes the formation of tiny harmless cysts in the ovaries, and reduces the number of eggs they produce. The syndrome is thought to be caused by high levels of the hormone insulin, which mops up blood sugar.

‘Boring Snoring’ Twitter gaffe MP mocked in own show credits

I now sometimes wonder if it has all gone too far. Has healthy scepticism tipped into outright destructive cynicism, with lots of hacks now revelling far too much in our trade’s nihilistic reputation? And then I turn on the radio and Nick Clegg is on talking pious rot, and my doubts disappear momentarily. But in a more important respect, Katz was wrong. We need boring snoring MPs. Not simply because they are prepared to be public servants and stand for election, which snippy journalists like me have never done (other than once at university, and that was pretty off-putting).
