How Men Are Popping More Pills Than Ever: 40% Take Vitamin Supplements Every Day

Joint Health Supplements

A spokesman said: Despite the rise in sales of mens vitamins, the number of male-specific launches remains fairly low in this category. Taking greater confidence from maintaining a well-groomed appearance now defines what it is to be a man in today’s society. Retirement age has NO impact on life expectancy…unless you are forced out of work without a choice Men who buy grooming products to boost self-esteem or feel more attractive are now in the majority, however, there have been few vitamin launches targeted at men, particularly when it comes to vitamins with appearance benefits. Nearly four in 10 men take vitamins or supplements on a regular basis, prompting a 25 per cent boom in sales in the past year As 27 per cent of men agree that vitamins and supplements are important for improving your appearance, this market has great potential. The report found that 42 per cent of all adults regularly take vitamins or supplements to boost their health. Women are the higher users of vitamins and supplements, with 46 per cent taking them on a daily basis.

Table 2: Examples of Common Signs and Symptoms of Osteoarthritis1 Joint soreness after extended periods of overuse or inactivity Episodes of stiffness after periods of rest that goes away rapidly when activity resumes Morning stiffness, which typically lasts no more than 30 minutes Episodes of pain caused by weakening of muscles surrounding the joint due to inactivity or a sedentary lifestyle Joint pain that is typically less painful in the morning but worse in the evening after a days activity Deterioration of coordination, posture, and walking due to pain and stiffness Glucosamine and Chondroitin According to the National Institutes of Health National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), in recent years, glucosamine and chondroitin have demonstrated some potential for reducing pain associated with OA, although there are still conflicting results and there is no conclusive scientific evidence regarding the exact effectiveness of these supplements.6 The Glucosamine/Chondroitin Arthritis Intervention Trial (GAIT), which was cosponsored by the NCCAM and the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases, evaluated the effectiveness and safety of glucosamine and chondroitin when taken together or separately.5,6 The trial concluded that the combination of glucosamine and chondroitin did not provide significant relief from pain associated with OA among all participants.6 However, a subgroup of study participants with moderate to severe pain reported significant relief with the combination.6 Glucosamine and chondroitin are classified as natural substances found in and around the cells of cartilage.7 Glucosamine is classified as an endogenous mucopolysaccharide that the body produces and distributes in cartilage and other connective tissue, and chondroitin sulfate is classified as a complex carbohydrate that helps cartilage retain water.7-10 In the United States, glucosamine and chondroitin are sold as dietary supplements, which are regulated as foods rather than drugs.6,7 These supplements are available as single-entity formulations but are most often found in combination formulations. Glucosamine Glucosamine is believed to maintain and strengthen cartilage for overall mobility and support.7-9 Glucosamine is used by the body as a precursor for cartilage synthesis and may also serve as a sulfur donor for the sulfur bonds used in the production of cartilage.7 Research also states that glucosamine is essential to keep cartilage tissue lubricated and to maintain its naturally slippery texture.7-9 Some studies have demonstrated that glucosamine may slow the progression of knee cartilage degradation and increase cartilage growth in some individuals.7-9 Glucosamine supplements are marketed to slow the deterioration of cartilage, relieve pain associated with OA, and improve joint motility.8 Glucosamine is typically given in doses of 1500 mg daily.7 Patients should be advised that glucosamine will not provide pain relief as quickly as analgesics such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and APAP. Glucosamine may take 6 to 8 weeks to exhibit a therapeutic effect; continued use of analgesics, if appropriate and if no contraindications, may be needed.7 The full effects of glucosamine may take as long as 4 to 6 months to be realized.7 The most common adverse effects include nausea, upset stomach, constipation, and diarrhea.7 Adverse effects can be minimized by taking glucosamine in divided doses.7 Pregnant and lactating women should avoid the use of this supplement due to lack of clinical safety data.7 Clinical studies have shown that glucosamine may raise blood pressure and cholesterol levels as well as exacerbate asthma in some individuals, but the clinical results are inconclusive.7-9 Researchers report that glucosamine may interact with anticoagulants such as warfarin, so caution should be observed when both products are used.7-9 In addition, there is conflicting scientific evidence regarding the effects of glucosamine on glucose metabolism. Some studies report that glucosamine may elevate blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, so patients should consult their primary health care provider prior to using supplements that contain glucosamine.5-9 Some studies report, however, that for most diabetic patients taking glucosamine, routine blood glucose testing appears to be an effective monitoring parameter to detect elevated blood glucose levels.5-9 In addition, because glucosamine supplements are often derived from shells of shrimp, lobsters, or crabs, patients with seafood allergies should avoid the use of these supplements.5-9 Chondroitin Chondroitin sulfate is classified as a glycosaminoglycan that is normally present in cartilage.7 Chondroitin acts as a building material in cartilage production, stimulates chondrocytes to produce cartilage, and serves as a sulfur donor, which is a key function in the synthesis of cartilage.7 As a supplement, chondroitin is utilized primarily for treating OA and promoting joint health; it is marketed to reduce pain and inflammation, improve joint function, and slow the progression of OA.9-11 Usually, chondroitin is found in products that contain glucosamine as well. In supplements, chondroitin is usually derived from bovine trachea or pork by-products.7,9-11 The typical dose of chondroitin is 1200 mg once daily or in divided doses.7 Many clinical studies have concluded that this supplement needs to be taken for 2 to 4 months before patients experience any health benefits.7,10 If no relief is observed after 3 to 5 months, many health experts advise discontinuation of therapy.7 Common adverse effects include nausea and mild gastrointestinal upset.7 Chondroitin should be taken with food if upset stomach occurs. Chondroitin use should be avoided in pregnant or lactating women due to lack of clinical safety data in these patient populations.7 Patients should be advised to consult their primary health care provider before taking chondroitin because it may interact with anticoagulants.7,10 Chondroitin is not recommended for use in children.

ESSAY; When ‘Health’ Supplements May Do Harm

I did not mention that I was a physician specializing in the prevention of heart disease, or that there were relatively few measures proven to reduce heart disease risk. But so many patients had brought in bags of supplements and ”vitamins,” convinced of their cardiovascular benefits, that I wanted to see how these products were being marketed. In the self-described ”health” store, the sales clerk asked a few questions about my cholesterol, blood pressure, exercise habits, etc. Then she showed me over half a dozen products, from $8 to $36 apiece, and assured me that they would address a variety of health risks. These products included a pill that was supposed to improve my circulation and another that would supposedly boost my ”metabolism.” Another was listed as an herbal ”vascular health” pill, with a long list of plant species names, none of them familiar.

Snoring: When Is It Cause For Concern?

How can I stop my snoring and tooth grinding in my sleep?

I think I definitely have less of the daytime sleepiness than I used to, said Barker, the mother of a 2-year-old. Im glad I tried that instead of the CPAP. Some snoring solutions I would say 40 percent of the people over the age of 40 snore. I would say 20 percent of (those) have (sleep) apnea, said dentist Keith Stummer, who has offices in Racine and Kenosha counties. And while excess weight is a factor in many snoring and sleep apnea cases, long, skinny-necked string beans can have it, too, he said. Potential solutions he cited include: Weight loss can help, or eliminate snoring for some if youre heavy. Surgery to cut the soft tissue at the back of the palate.

In addition, monitoring and controlling the stress in your life, and avoiding stimulants, can dramatically improve the problem. If you are snoring and think your sleep may be interrupted, it is probably worth being tested for obstructive sleep apnoea. You can consult an ear, nose and throat specialist for this. It may require an overnight sleep study, which can be performed in a hospital setting or in your home.

Snoring makes you ugly

In a study of 20 middle-aged apnea patients, they found those who were treated for the condition were judged more attractive in their “after” pictures than in the “before pictures” around two-thirds of the time. The patients’ foreheads were found to be less puffy and their faces less red following treatment. The researchers also perceived, but did not have a way to measure, a reduction in forehead wrinkles after treatment. Using a sensitive “face mapping” technique usually used by surgeons, and a panel of independent appearance raters, the researchers detected changes just a few months after they began using a system called CPAP to help them breathe better during sleep and overcome chronic sleepiness. Related Articles Jurassic Park ruled out dinosaur DNA could not survive in amber 12 Sep 2013 The 22 independent raters used for the study, which is published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, were asked to look at “before” and “after” photos and rank attractiveness, alertness and youthfulness and to pick which picture they thought showed the patient after sleep apnea treatment. In two thirds of cases, the raters stated that the patients in the post-treatment photos looked more alert, more youthful and more attractive.

Hormone Replacement Therapy May Reduce Pancreatic Cancer Risk

Hormone therapy: Is it right for you?

The study found associations, and cannot prove that estrogen whether in hormone replacement therapy or birth control pills actually causes an increase or decrease in pancreatic cancer risk . Factors not taken into account by the researchers may be responsible for the links. In addition, pancreatic cancer is rare, so the risk of any woman in the study developing the condition was small. The reason for the opposite findings is not clear, the researchers said.

Systemic hormone therapy. Systemic estrogen which comes in pill, skin patch, gel, cream or spray form remains the most effective treatment for relief of troublesome menopausal hot flashes and night sweats. Estrogen can also ease vaginal symptoms of menopause, such as dryness, itching, burning and discomfort with intercourse. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) still approves estrogen for the prevention of the bone-thinning disease called osteoporosis, doctors usually recommend medications called bisphosphonates to treat osteoporosis.

Pregnancy Is Not An Illness

Normally Im for crossfit, but this doesnt make any sense to me You may have mastered the squat but need to work on motherhood ..8 months doing an overhead squat really??!!! Clearly she should loose any custody to the fathers child and he be awarded full custody as she is unfit to be a co-parent. This notion that a woman is pregnant and therefore a workout away from hurting her baby is an extremely loaded mindset. Mothers tend to try to protect their children; there is a bit of an instinct for it. To blame any possible hypothetical future complications solely on the mothers actions, based entirely off of a picture, is thoughtless. Pregnancy is not something that makes a woman suddenly become frail or infirm with illness, and if something does happen to her or her child, piling blame on top of her emotional turmoil is cruel. The argument that keeps surfacing in Ellisons defense other than that exercising is healthy and she knows more about her situation than you do is that women have historically always had to work hard, and often very physically, during their pregnancies. There have always been complications in pregnancies as well, yet one does not equate the other. A woman who exercises during pregnancy is not guaranteed a tragedy, nor should she avoid exercise because one is possible.

How To Choose Healthy Whole-grain Products

Nutritional supplements for diabetes may carry misleading information

A Basic Whole Grain Stamp means the product provides a half serving, or eight grams of whole grains per serving. Any whole grain listed as the first ingredient. This is recommended by the USDAs MyPlate and the Food and Drug Administrations consumer health Information guide. Any whole grain listed as the first ingredient without any added sugars in the first three ingredients. This is recommended by USDAs MyPlate.

Another FDA regulation states that the manufacturer name has to be clearly written on the packaging of a supplement. Manufacturers are responsible for the safety of the product, not the FDA. Results showed that the manufacturer was indicated in only three products out of the 10 examined. The researchers also compiled a list of ingredients included in the 10 nutritional supplements. They found that a total of 71 different ingredients were being used.

Supplements for Women’s Health

Buy supplements manufactured by companies that comply with the drug administration regulations and use natural food sources rather than synthetic chemicals. Dietary supplements for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding are specially formulated to contain more folic acid, calcium, and iron content to cater to the needs of the mother and the baby. Prenatal vitamins must be taken only after consulting a physician. There are several health supplement manufacturers who claim their products are beneficial for women. Often, the composition of the ingredients is imbalanced and some manufactures even use fillers that can cause allergies. It is important to do thorough research on the manufacturer, consult a physician, check the product compliance, read the label to ensure the all the essential nutrients have been provided, and read reviews about the supplements.

Checking Blood Pressure At Home Pays Off

‘Hypervigilance’ about race linked to blood pressure

At the end of the trial, 72 percent of those doing home monitoring had their blood pressure under control, compared to 57 percent of the usual care group. The benefits persisted six months after the program had ended. The results, published today in JAMA , are similar to the findings of previous studies on home blood pressure monitoring. But, according to the researchers, this is the first time people with both uncontrolled blood pressure and other conditions (such as diabetes) have been studied in such a program, and the first time results were measured after the formal monitoring program had ended. “More frequent blood pressure monitoring allows more opportunities to detect blood pressure that is higher than the desired range.

In addition to the link between race consciousness and blood pressure, Cooper’s team found that whites who were race conscious were more likely to feel respected in the doctor-patient relationship than whites who were not concerned with race, though they were less likely to take their blood pressure medication as prescribed. “Given the socially dominant status of whites in the United States, higher levels of race consciousness could reflect greater awareness of white privilege,” the authors note in the study. “Another explanation, particularly among whites who reside in areas with a high black population, is that race consciousness reflects a heightened fear of victimization, an anxiety-provoking stressor. Scholars of critical race theory are still debating whether race consciousness enhances or adversely affects the health of whites.” Cooper notes that it can be stressful for black people to go in a store and feel they are being watched more closely than others. Another example that is equally stressful, she says, is waiting a long time to be served at a restaurant and being ignored, possibly because of one’s race.

The 6 Weight-loss Tips That Science Actually Knows Work

For every action theres a reaction; thats a law of physics, not of biology, but it seems that it also works in biological systems. This is why we often overestimate quite radically an effect of a particular treatment. He points out that public health campaigns that, for example, urge people to take the stairs instead of the elevator or go on a nightly stroll are unlikely to work, because theyre not taking these compensatory mechanisms into account. The other problem with exercise-without-dieting is that its simply tiring, and again, the body will compensate. If the exercise made you tired so that you become more sedentary the rest of the day, you might not experience any net negative energy, says Klein. Some of the calories we burn come from our basic movements throughout the day so if youre wiped out after exercise, and more likely to sit on the couch afterwards, youve lost the energy deficit you gained from your jog. 2. Exercise can help fix a broken metabolism, especially during maintenance People used to come into the doctors office and say, My metabolism is broken! says James Hill , PhD, at the University of Colorado.

Eating clean and healthy many times throughout the day (4-5 meals) will greatly increase your metabolism, help you lose weight, and burn the excess storage (fat).” Many of Petruzzi’s patients are fearful that rapid weight loss or weight loss surgery necessarily results in remaining excess skin. Fortunately, he says, there is a way to combat excess skin and greatly alleviate the problem: strength/resistance training. “Strength training helps initiate the elasticity we have in our skin so that when we are losing weight rapidly our skin has some rebound and will get tighter and firmer,” says Petruzzi. Though some patients fear looking malnourished or sickly after surgery, Petruzzi assures the patients of Bluepoint Surgical Group that this situation is very rare: “For the most part, you cannot become malnourished. Surgery will alter your portion size but not how many times you eat per day.” Petruzzi notes that this myth/fear of looking malnourished goes back to the myth about eating less to lose weight — since patients will be eating more frequently throughout the day, but at smaller portion sizes and with healthier meals, their bodies should remain nourished while increasing their metabolic rates. At Bluepoint Surgical Group, patients consult with a team of qualified professionals before and after surgery.

Hormone Replacement Therapy Not Linked To Memory Woes In Postmenopausal Women

The treatment consists of a synthetic mixture of estrogen, or female sex hormones, and is used to treat symptoms of menopause, including hot flashes and vaginal dryness. Hormone replacement therapy may also help stave off bone loss for older women. But, previous research of women over 65 has linked the medication to cognitive deficits like memory loss and a two-fold risk increase for dementia. For the new study, researchers randomized postmenopausal women between the ages of 50 and 55 to either receiving hormone therapy or placebo. After seven years, the researchers followed up with the women, and determined no overall differences in cognitive function scores between women taking the CEEs and the placebos.

Hormone therapy, calcium may lower fracture risk

She was biologically male but self-identified as female throughout her adult life, according to court documents. Because of this, she wanted to initiate the gender transition process prior to her incarceration, but found herself unable to do so in the face of the restrictions imposed on her by a conservative family and workplace, the lawsuit continues. Adams had been diagnosed with gender identity disorder; Manning has also received the same diagnosis. Adams filed a lawsuit in 2009 after her prison denied treatment. That suit was settled outside of court two years later, with one prong of the settlement being a change to prison policy, allowing hormone therapy treatment to start in prison. In May 2011, the Bureau of Prisons sent a memo to its wardens outlining a new policy that all inmates seeking hormone replacement therapy Receive a current individualized assessment and evaluation.

The group recommended against supplement use to prevent broken bones. For the new study, Jean Wactawski-Wende from the University at Buffalo and her colleagues compared seven years’ worth of fracture data for women in their 50s, 60s and 70s participating in the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI) study. In one arm of the trial, participants were randomly assigned to take either hormone therapy or a drug-free placebo. In another, they took 1,000 milligrams of calcium and 400 IU of vitamin D or placebo tablets each day. About 16,000 women were part of both the hormone and vitamin trials, including 4,000 randomized to both hormone therapy – either estrogen alone or estrogen and progesterone – and calcium and vitamin D.
