In Search of Perfect Vagina: why women do labioplasty for cosmetic reasons

Aug 26, 2011 Posted Under: Healthy Food News  

In a recent study published in BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, researchers have found that many women seeking labioplasty (labia reduction surgery) do so for cosmetic rather than medical reasons. During the initial study, the researchers discovered that of 33 women referred to surgeons by their primary physicians, all had normal right and left labia minora measuring an average width of 26.9 mm and 24.8 mm respectively. In spite of the results showing that their inner labia were of normal size, the majority of the women continued to express their desire for the surgery.

Labioplasty is a labia reduction surgical technique used to alter the appearance of the vulva.

Dogs and medication

Aug 26, 2011 Posted Under: Healthy Food Reviews  

My aging golden retriever seemed like a good candidate for an anti-inflammatory drug for arthritis. I naively put her on deramaxx for dog arthritis without asking many questions and never thinking about possible allergic reactions. After all, the drug promised to relieve her symptoms. We learned the hard way that, while medications for dogs can be beneficial, all drugs pose risks and have the potential to produce allergic reactions. Kona fortunately recovered but not all dogs are as lucky. The drugs are safe; fewer than one percent of dogs have bad reactions to them; and many dogs would have to be put to sleep sooner without them, according to drug manufacturers. Thats little consolation to the dog owners whose pets have suffered side effects. Read more…

Aug 25, 2011 Posted Under: Healthy Food Advices  

Eating fat won’t make you fat any more than eating money will make you rich.

Sure, if you stuff enough cold, hard cash down your gullet, your belly will probably stick out like an overfed oil exec. Same with fat. Fat keeps us full, and healthy fats like those found in seafood and many plants help protect against heart disease. But most of us are eating way, way too much of the wrong kinds—and getting fatter in return.

Yeah, I know it’s hard to keep it all straight: good fats, bad fats, indifferent fats, fats that just got out of rehab . . . nutrition is confusing. One day we’re told to eat margarine, the next we’re told to eat butter. Well, let’s simplify it: Here are the only three rules of fat you need to know:

According to state health records, 635 Florida babies were born addicted to prescription drugs in the first half of 2010 alone. South Florida doctors and intensive care nurses report an dramatic uptick in babies born hooked on pills that their mothers abused while pregnant.
