Maintaining a healthy diet is important if you’ve been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation, or a-fib. The key to eating well is to avoid foods that raise your heart rate and your blood pressure.

A California mother’s instinct may have saved her newborn baby’s life.
When little Hope Juarez was born in Orange Country, Calif., last month, it was immediately clear that something was wrong. Hope was born as white as a ghost, and doctors realized that the baby had almost no blood in her body.
“She was crying and they brought her over to us and she was really pale,” Hope’s father, Josh Juarez, told local station ABC7. “I knew that something was really wrong when they started pricking at her feet trying to get blood to come out and there was no blood coming out.”

Women who get a flu vaccine while they’re pregnant lower their risk of having a child with autism..
Greg Poland, MD, a researcher at the Mayo Clinic has been studying the flu virus for a quarter century. He says you can think of the flu vaccine as an “anti-autism vaccine.”
It’s a startling statement, but it is backed up by several recent studies. Dr. Poland says pregnant women who get influenza have double or triple the risk of having a child with autism. So preventing flu during pregnancy is vital.

Ten years after becoming the winner of “American Idol’s” second season, Ruben Studdard has released his 6th studio album this month entitled, “Unconditional Love.”
The 11-track opus finds the Birmingham, Alabama native collaborating with the likes of Eric Benét, Lalah Hathaway, and world renown producer-musician, David Foster. And though the 35-year-old crooner is celebrating his ten year “American Idol” anniversary in May, he has no qualms about the show being referenced as his claim to fame.
“For a boy from Alabama who had no idea of how to enter the music industry after getting no responses to the demos I was sending in, it was a great blessing,” he said during a recent interview with Billboard. “It’s a six-month music industry crash course. But what you learn quickly after leaving the show is that the industry is and isn’t ‘American Idol.’ A.I. is a huge pop show, but the urban market is completely different. Still, the show was first class from the time I stepped off the plane.”

Researchers looking for simple ways to treat autism say they may have explained why at least some cases occur: It all has to do with the stress babies undergo at birth.
They’re already testing a simple drug for treating kids with autism and say their findings may point to ways to treat the disorder earlier in life.
It’s all experimental, but the study, published in the journal Science, should inspire other researchers to take a closer look. “This is exciting stuff to people in the field, because it’s getting at a basic mechanism,” says Andrew Zimmerman of the University of Massachusetts Medical School, who reviewed the study.

More women than ever are dying from painkiller overdoses. How can you spot signs of drug abuse in a loved one?.
Americans’ abuse of prescription painkillers has reached epidemic proportions, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC estimates that 15,000 people die every year in this country from overdoses involving opioid or narcotic pain relievers.
While men are more likely to die from painkiller abuse, the number of deaths among women was up 400 percent between 1999 and 2010. “More women are dying at rates that we have never seen before,” said CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden. “Stopping this epidemic in women — and men — is everyone’s business.”

On Tuesday morning, a brain surgeon in Birmingham, Ala., walked six miles through a severe snow storm to save a patient’s life.
Dr. Zenko Hrynkiw, Trinity Medical Center’s only neurosurgeon, had just finished surgery at a neighboring hospital when Steve Davis, the charge nurse at Trinity’s neuro intensive care unit, called him with an emergency, AL.com reported. Hrynkiw attempted to drive to the hospital, but roadblocks prevented him from getting far.
Davis told The Huffington Post that both local authorities and Trinity tried to provide transportation for Hrynkiw, but to no avail.
“I called him again and he said, ‘I’m not getting anywhere, I’m walking,'” Davis told HuffPost.

How germy are those lemon wedges we plop into our water glasses at restaurants?
A slice of lemon can spruce up plain-old water, but you might be drinking more than you bargained for. Turns out, those seemingly innocuous water glass garnishes (see also: iced tea and diet soda) could be serving up a host of unappetizing organisms.

If you’ve ever known someone with depression or have battled it yourself, you’re deeply aware of the accidental insensitivity that can often come with it. For those who may not understand the complexities, it’s easy to say things that have the potential to do more harm than good.
While the U.S. has one of the lower clinical depression rates in the world, the number of people it has an impact on is still significant. An estimated 1 in 10 Americans suffer yearly from the illness.

In 2005, a young woman named Jill appeared on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” with her brutally honest father, Kirk, to talk about what it was like being “the fat one in the family.” Overweight and feeling shunned, Jill — then known as Jill Roberts — listened as her father shared his harsh criticisms of her.
“Does it bother me when we’re out in public that Jill’s overweight? It does. I’ll be honest,” Kirk said back then.
“I just have this built-up hatred, like, ‘What is wrong with you? Why don’t you love me?'” Jill said, through tears.
