Breathing technique can reduce frequency, severity of asthma attacks
(Southern Methodist University) Researchers at Southern Methodist University are expanding a study that shows promise for reducing both the expense and suffering associated with chronic asthma. A four-week program teaches asthmatics how to better control their condition by changing the way they breathe. Funded with a four-year, $1.4 million grant from the National Institutes of Health, 120 Dallas County patients will participate in four weeks of breathing training by the study's projected end in July 2011.

For many, health policy jargon is clear as mud
Deductibles. Out-of-pocket. Point of claim. Jargon flummoxes patients and experts alike. Moves are afoot to make it easier to understand. Neil Dukas knew little about health insurance because he had always been healthy. When he and his wife bought a high-deductible policy in 2008, he didn't know the difference between a deductible and an out-of-pocket limit. He simply assumed that when he needed care, the insurer would cover it.

'Sonic' toothbrushes may not clean up better than manual ones

Will peppermint interact with statins?
I was very concerned to hear that you should not eat peppermints while taking a cholesterol-lowering medication. I am on Crestor, and I eat peppermints when I have an upset stomach. I called my pharmacist to ask what could happen, and she wasn't aware of any problems caused by taking a cholesterol medication and eating peppermint.
