    Stop Icing

    Some of the things he talks about is half right but overall I am saying he is wrong. You should not use heat in the acute phase of inflammation, it does more harm than good. Yes I am a health professional. Is RICE big business? No. There is no money in recommending rest, ice, compression and...

Their diet may work great if you only live till 30, it's hard to say what it...

    Flu shots 2013

    Someone has already pointed out that the very young, old and ill are particularly suseptable to having a very bad outcome if they get infected. With that in mind getting vaccinated is not just about protecting yourself, it is about reducing the number of people that can pass it on to at risk...
