Food Factor: Magnesium
Magnesium-rich foods, such as leafy greens, nuts and whole grains, may
reduce the risk of colon cancer. The University of Iowa found that those who
ate foods totaling more than 350 milligrams of magnesium daily were less
likely to develop the cancer than those who ate less.
CALORIE BURNER: BADMINTON
Want to work off some of that fried chicken and potato salad you chowed down
at a Sunday picnic? Try a game of badminton. It's fun, invigorating and very
civilized. An hour of batting the birdie around will burn off about 317
calories for a 155-pound person.
NEWS FLASH: EXTREME EMPATHY
When people say "I feel your pain," they do not mean it literally, but
certain people really do feel something that appears to be an extreme form
of empathy, British researchers said Sunday. They said watching someone
being touched triggers the same part of the brain as actual touch. People
who experience a tactile sense of touch when they see another person being
touched - mirror-touch synesthesia - was first studied in 2005 in one
person. But researchers have now studied 10 people with the same condition.
