Scared of strength training? Before you shy away from lifting weights for good, check out the myriad of things it can do for your health.
Judy Smith of New York City works out at Uplift Fitness, a women’s-only gym where the classes focus on strength training just as much as calorie-blasting cardio, to boost her bone density while she tones her body. “The cardio is important, obviously, but strength is just as important,” she says. “All these studies say it’s important for bone density, it’s important when you age to make sure you have muscle mass, and you’re maintaining that muscle mass.” And when you add high-intensity cardio bursts to your strength-training plan, Uplift co-founder Helena Wolin reminds her clients, you really send your calorie burn through the roof.

Phase II trial demonstrated modest benefit in reducing cognitive decline in patients with Alzheimer’s disease.
An investigational oral drug targeting adrenergic receptors improved scores on memory tests in patients with Alzheimer’s disease in a phase IIa trial, researchers said.
When given with currently approved Alzheimer’s disease drugs, the agent — called ORM-12741 — improved composite memory test scores by 4 percent after 3 months of twice daily treatment, whereas scores worsened by 33 percent in patients receiving memantine and a placebo pill, according to Juha Rouru, MD, of Orion Pharma in Turku, Finland, and colleagues.

The CDC has issued updates on the SARS-like coronavirus that started in September; the fungal meningitis outbreak resulting from steroid injections; and the waning flu season.
Human transmission of the novel coronavirus may be possible, according to an update from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on the SARS-like coronavirus outbreak that started last September and has claimed 8 of the 14 people confirmed to have had it.
“Three of the confirmed cases of novel coronavirus infection were identified in the United Kingdom as part of a cluster within one family,” according to the CDC.

You can help to protect your testosterone levels, and avoid Low T, by living a healthy lifestyle.
Low testosterone levels can cause a myriad of symptoms. From depression to low energy to decreased sex drive, a man can find his life greatly impacted by a dip in testosterone. While a small decrease in testosterone is natural as a man ages, the good news is that there are many things you can do to help dip in testosterone well as your mental and physical well-being.
Here are some natural ways to help ensure that your testosterone levels are as stable and healthy as possible:
Get plenty of exercise. When men’s testosterone levels drop, they sometimes experience a loss of muscle mass and a decrease of energy. Of course, one of the best natural ways to promote energy and muscle growth is with exercise! Whether you are new to the gym or you have been a long-time jogging enthusiast, exercise is a hugely important of a healthy lifestyle, especially as we age.

A few key behaviors and health conditions could predict your chances of health and longevity for the next 10 years. Find out what they are.
Want to look 10 years into the future, and see how your health is holding up? Thanks to researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, you now can. They developed a checklist, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, which fairly accurately predicts a senior’s chance of surviving another decade, providing a unique opportunity for patients and physicians to work together to lessen key health risk factors and improve seniors’ quality of life, they say.
The UCSF analysis used a nationally representative cohort of U.S. adults over age 50. Point values were assigned to each factor in the mortality index (the higher the points, the worse the risk). A risk score was then calculated for each participant based on their self-reported health indicators. In the end, there was a dramatic difference: Participants with no risk factors had a 2.8 percent chance of dying over 10 years, while those with the most risks had a 96 percent chance of dying.

Atrial fibrillation affects both sexes, but there’s a higher risk of stroke-related death in women. Find out how symptoms and treatments vary between men and women.
Atrial fibrillation, also called Afib or AF, is the most common type of irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia). It’s also manageable and often curable. So why are women at greater risk from its complications than men are? According to the American Heart Association, more men are diagnosed with atrial fibrillation than women are, but women have a higher rate of death from strokes related to the condition.

Scientists identified a new genetic mutation in people that causes type 1 diabetes, opening the door to novel treatments.
An ordinary patient visit recently led Swiss researchers to an extraordinary discovery: a single genetic mutation that causes type 1 diabetes, as reported today in the journal Cell Metabolism. The scientists are now exploring ways to translate their findings into clinical research, including a possible trial with drugs that activate the gene pathway, in the hopes of identifying new type 1 diabetes treatments.
“This is the first time that a single gene was found that directly leads to type 1 diabetes,” says Marc Donath, MD, the study’s senior author and an endocrinologist at University Hospital Basel in Switzerland. “This gene was quite well-known from animal studies and was not expected to lead to this kind of disease.”

A Mediterranean diet enhanced with extra-virgin olive oil or extra servings of nuts lowered the risk of heart attacks and other cardiovascular events in people, study finds.
All roads lead to Rome when eating for heart health, a major study has found — or at least they point to the advantages of the Mediterranean diet for those at high risk for heart disease.
Researchers in Spain found that the Mediterranean diet supplemented with extra-virgin olive oil or nuts reduced incident of major cardiovascular events, according to a study published online today in the New England Journal of Medicine.

Using low-dose computed tomography (CT scans) rather than standard chest X-rays to detect lung cancer could prevent approximately 12,000 U.S. lung cancer deaths each year, according to a new study.
While cancer death rates have declined in the United States over the last few decades, lung cancer remains the top killer among all forms of the disease for both men and women. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that in 2013, there will be 228,190 new cases of lung cancer and 159,480 lung cancer deaths in the United States.

Doctors are becoming more familiar with restless legs syndrome, a common, sleep-robbing condition. Restless legs syndrome symptoms include odd sensations in the legs and a strong urge to move them.
Restless legs syndrome affects more than 12 million Americans, and often requires a much larger vocabulary to describe symptoms than merely the word “restless.”
Even if you’re exhausted and it seems that every part of your body needs a good night’s rest, your legs — and your brain — may be deceiving you. Restless legs syndrome is a neurological disorder that can make falling and staying asleep a very difficult task.
