Lead poisoning in pregnant women who used ayurvedic medications from India...
Full title: Lead poisoning in pregnant women who used ayurvedic medications from India - new york city, 2011-2012.
Lead poisoning still occurs in the United States despite extensive prevention efforts and strict regulations. Exposure to lead can damage the brain, kidneys, and nervous and reproductive systems. Fetal exposure to lead can adversely affect neurodevelopment, decrease fetal growth, and increase the risk for premature birth and miscarriage. During 2011-2012, the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) investigated six cases of lead poisoning associated with the use of 10 oral Ayurvedic medications made in India. All six cases were in foreign-born pregnant women assessed for lead exposure risk by health-care providers during prenatal visits, as required by New York state law. Their blood lead levels (BLLs) ranged from 16 to 64 µg/dL. Lead concentrations of the medications were as high as 2.4%; several medications also contained mercury or arsenic, which also can have adverse health effects. DOHMH distributed information about the medications to health-care providers, product manufacturers, and government agencies in the United States and abroad, via postal and electronic mail. DOHMH also ordered a local business selling contaminated products to cease sales. Health-care providers should ask patients, especially foreign-born or pregnant patients, about any use of foreign health products, supplements, and remedies such as Ayurvedic medications. Public health professionals should consider these types of products when investigating heavy metal exposures and raise awareness among health-care providers and the public regarding the health risks posed by such products.

I have often heard that the key to life is balance. Yes, we spend a lot of time seeking out opportunities and challenges designed to stimulate our minds. Indeed, there are plenty of opportunities for entertainment. The Internet, the seemingly unlimited array of channels that are available through our cable or satellite provider, and even our multimedia cell phones provide an endless supply of thrills and fantasies. Yet, what happens when we fail to balance this adequately with relaxation.
It seems that whether real or inspired by the media the challenges of life motivate us. If...
Achieve Freedom from your Addiction to Gambling
I remember attending a conference several years ago at a casino in Reno, Nevada. As I was walking to a meeting it became necessary to go through the black jack tables and slot machines areas. My path led me past one of their many cashier facilities. Right where people would get in line to buy their chips there was a sign clearly warning people not to gamble if certain situations existed. These included raising money for medical expenses, to pay a mortgage, and others. During a conversation with a taxi driver he told me about the unusual...
If you are overly obsessed about what may or may not happen tomorrow, you are totally missing the enjoyment of living each day of your wonderful life and depriving yourself of the excitement that your future may bring. Worrying never solved anything. In fact, it is probably is responsible for making your worst fears a reality.
Having a superior human brain means that you possess the wonderful abilities to anticipate what may happen and simulate it in your mind thousands of times before it actually happens. By the way, clinical hypnotherapists call this suggestion and imagination. These...
