It is a fact that money doesn’t grow on trees. But with a fistful of dollars and a box of paperclips, a regular old tree can turn into a dollar tree, no special cash-seeds needed. Amy Krouse Rosenthal created just such a tree on a street in Chicago to see what would happen if money really did grow on trees. What amazes me is who most people react to the money tree.

Are You Sleeping Enough?

I thought this is interesting. Do you know that people who sleep less than six hours a night may be three times more likely to develop a condition that leads to diabetes and heart disease?

Researchers from the University of Warwick and the University at Buffalo found that short sleep duration is associated with an elevated risk of a pre-diabetic state, known as IFG. People with IFG have a greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes and are at an increased risk of heart disease and stroke.

The researchers looked at six years of data from 1,455 participants in the Western New York Health Study.

All participants were between the ages of 35 and 79 years old, and all completed a clinical examination that included measures of resting blood pressure, height, and weight. They also completed questionnaires about their general health and wellbeing and sleeping patterns.

“We found that short sleep—less than six hours—was associated with a significant, three-fold increased likelihood of developing IFG, compared to people who got an average of six to eight hours sleep a night,” says lead author Saverio Stranges of the Warwick Medical School.

In this case, I think it is always good to sleep early before midnight. Good-byes to all the late night shows…

Can Milk From Grass-Fed Cows Help To Reduce Possiblity of Heart Attacks

crystal338 — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 07:50:38 +0000

It is interesting to know that drinking whole-fat milk from pasture-grazing diary cows may help you to reduce your chances of having a heart attack.

According to a new study released by Hannia Campos from the Department of Nutrition, Harvard School of Public Health, and 2 other researchers.

Dairy products are the main source of conjugated linoleic acid, which is produced by the cows as they digest grass. Pasture-grazing dairy cows have more CLA in their milk than do grain-fed cows. The study is conducted on 3600 people staying at Costa Rica because the country uses traditional pasture-grazing for dairy cows.

It is found that those people with more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in their body fat has a lower risk of heart attack when compared to the others with lower CLA in their bodies.
