How Safe Is Your Hospital? Women's Health (Sept 2006)
The major players in the health-care system are supposed to help save your life, but a nursing shortage and bureaucratic tie-ups mean they could be doing the exact opposite. This special report examines the real issues behind hospital safety. Available for reprint.
Beyond Sunblock: Body+Soul (June 2006)
There's more to stopping skin cancer than just creams and screeenings - prevention starts long before you arrive at the beach. This feature demystifies sun blocks, plus shows how what you eat - from spices to green tea - can help protect you, too. Available for reprint.
Tropical Turnabout: Yoga Journal (June 2006)
Although the humble coconut has long been a staple of traditional Southern Indian cuisine, in the West it's been seen as a pariah: high in saturated fat and, therefore, bad for our hearts. But it turns out that the Indians may have been right, as this brief news piece explains. Available for reprint.
Smart Desserts: Martha Stewart Living (June 2006)
Great-tasting layer cake, chocolate pudding and more - each made more healthful. Find out how in this "Fit to Eat" column.
Helping Hypertension: Alternative Medicine (May 2006)
According to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Association, nearly one-third of Americans suffer from hypertension. The good news? A dose of daily hibiscus tea appears to ease mild hypertension the same way many anti-hypertensive drugs do -- without harmful side effects. Available for reprint.
Yogurt Culture: Martha Stewart Living (May 2006)
With its high levels of protein, calcium, magnesium and vitamins B6 and B12, low-fat plain yogurt is the nutrient-dense beginning to many flavorful recipes, as this "Fit to Eat" column explains.
Hybrid Healing: Yoga Life (Rodale) Spring 2006
Whether you're fighting off a cold or something more serious, your best move may be a blend of mainstream and alternative medical approaches. Where East meets West, you get well. Available for reprint.
The Runner's High: Runner's World (March 2006)
Got the blues? This short feature, part of the magazine's annual Mind+Body special issue, shows how running can boost your mood. Available for reprint.
The Heart of a Runner: Runner's World (Feb 2005)
Because they work out regularly, runners often assume that their hearts are in perfect health. Unfortunately, that's not always the case. What a runner doesn't know, or chooses to ignore, can prove harmful or even fatal. This feature explores a handful of heart conditions that may have special implications for runners. Available for reprint.
