PRESCRIPTION FOR A HEALTHIER LIFE
Weight related diseases killed 300,000 Americans in 1994. The number one
cause of preventable death in the United
States-- after tobacco related illness-- is
the direct result of being overweight and
in poor physical condition. Too many Americans are either seriously overweight or have a family member who is and the problem is growing worse. Today, fully one-third of all adults, and more important, over 20% of our children are seriously over weight.
Clearly, being overweight is more than a matter of appearance; it's a matter of better health.
VITAMIN A VITAL IN PREGNANCY
Most pregnant women need not toss out their multivitamins or change their diets because of a new study linking vitamin A to birth defects, experts say. In fact, they say, prenatal vitamins and a diet rich in nutrients, including vitamin A, remain part of the recipe for a healthy pregnancy. "We urge women to eat a balanced diet and take a multivitamin every day," says Michelle Kling. Folic acid, an ingredient in most multi-vitamins, is known to reduce some birth defects. Foods and pills containing beta-carotene -- converted to vitamin A in the body -- appeared safe in the study.
PARENTS NOT TOLD THAT MEASLES VACCINE WAS EXPERIMENTAL
A major research project involving two measles vaccines was conducted on 1,500 minority infants in Los Angeles starting in 1989 - and parents were never told that one of the vaccines was experimental. Although stating that the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) considered the matter "serious," Dr. David Satcher shrugged it off by explaining, "Things sometimes fall through the cracks." Although the use of the experimental drug on the L.A. children had not been linked to any health problems when news of this project became known, other children weren't so lucky. The experimental vaccine used on the California infants was not licensed in the United States.
