Does your significant other dictate what you can wear, what friends you can hang with, and even where you can go? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, be careful - you may be in a controlling relationship.

Screenings for Women
by Dean Heller MD September 21st, 2012 | Ask the Doctor
My best friend was diagnosed with local cervical cancer, and although she said she will be fine with treatment, her doctor says that it may be related to the HPV infection, which is a sexually transmitted disease. How do I find out if I have that?
It is very easy to screen for HPV or human papilloma virus, which is associated with cervical cancer, and is transmitted through sexual contact. During a routine PAP smear, your doctor should screen you for HPV. Your OB/Gyn may have screened you, if you told them that you are sexually active.

On Soy
by Louise September 18th, 2012 | Diet
Is soy good or bad for you? Soy products are often suggested as healthy substitutes for dairy or meat products. Sure, soy milk makes a logical alternative for milk for someone with lactose intolerance (because it is a plant-based beverage and not actually a "milk"), but it makes much less sense for someone with a soy nut allergy.
The market for soy products in America has been growing over the last couple decades. Of course, the rise of soy has been followed by a slew of studies that point to possible concerns about it.
Isoflavones are the hot topic within the world of soy nutritional analysis.

All Systems Go!

When scientists launch rockets into space, they make sure that all components of the complicated craft work properly. To think about this process in simple terms, visualize a lengthy check list. One by one, the controllers test each part, and when it works properly, only then can the mission proceed. Why do they do this? Prevention of a catastrophe - either loss of life or loss of millions of dollars.
Think about your own body as a rocket ship destined to travel on a precarious mission, one that involves plenty of hazards to overcome. Just like scientists maintain strict standards
