The Zone can be summed up as a state of hormonal balance inrepparttar 114562 body which can be achieved by your diet. It is especially about keeping key hormone's in a balanced zone sincerepparttar 114563 wrong amount in your body can trigger weight gain.

Warning On Salmon from: Environment Science And Technology

Traces of a fire retardant have been found in both wild and farm raised salmon. The study went on to say that wild fish were less contaminated than farm raised.

The toxicity ofrepparttar 114559 chemicals, called polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) isn’t fully understood at this time. The presence ofrepparttar 114560 chemicals raises concerns of health officials. It is known that PBDEs can harmrepparttar 114561 neurological development of young children and babies.

It's unclear exactly howrepparttar 114562 PBDEs leach out of products, but they've have been turning up in everything from household dust to women's breast milk. The study shows more evidence of this chemicals climbing uprepparttar 114563 food change.

Dr Bob’s Take: Once again we are seeing more environmental implication on our food supply. Mercury is better known. More study is needed but until then I would limit this fish in young children to maybe no more than once a week or once every other week. And we need to be more aware of our environment.

A Strept Vaccine

Yes, scientists are making progress in developing a vaccine againstrepparttar 114564 infamous streptococcus Group A. This isrepparttar 114565 same bacteria that give us strept throat andrepparttar 114566 so called flesh eating disease of which there are about 9,000 cases a year with a high death rate.

The study ofrepparttar 114567 vaccine on just 28 people showed that protection againstrepparttar 114568 strept bacteria did occur. More studies will need to be done to prove not onlyrepparttar 114569 effectiveness but also that there are no serious complications.

Dr Bob’s Take: work on a vaccine has been going on for over 50 yrs and this study bodes well. It does because ofrepparttar 114570 millions of strept throats which if not treated can give rise to kidney disease or rheumatic heart disease in a small percentage of children. Thankfully these complications are not common. A vaccine will be very helpful to all of us.
