I have heard rumors lately that
sunscreen can cause breast cancer. Sounds frightening doesn't it? Our tried and true enemy against skin cancer and wrinkling may be an enemy itself?

How do you feel about
bisphenol A (BPA)? While you might not know what this chemical compound is, chances are high that it is in your home and even in you. I hate to sound so alarmist but a recent report on BPA alarmed me.

I was just flipping through nutritionist Joy Bauer's wonderful new book
Food Cures and saw this little tidbit about the acne / dairy connection.
It seems that the connection between dairy and acne is not the milk fat like I previously thought, but iodine and hormones. Iodine-fortified feed is given to cows since iodine helps fight infections and iodine can cause acne in some people.

The other morning I went to the grocery to pick up some eggs to hard boil so I could decorate them with my girls, and they were out of
Pete and Gerry's Organic Eggs.
I freaked for half a second, but then noticed another brand right next to them. I picked up a 6-pack of
Nellie's Nest Eggs and read the label.

I've heard of ovarian cysts, I'm sure you have too. Do you know how they form? Are they something I need to worry about?
