Mental Attitude: COPD and Neurodegenerative Disease Risk. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may
have an increased risk for neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. A ten-year study followed
8,640 COPD patients and found they were 1.74 times more likely to receive a diagnosis for either Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's
disease during the course of the study when compared with participants in a control group without a history of COPD.

Health Alert: Melanoma Rates Have Doubled Over Past Three Decades. Incidents of melanoma, the deadliest form of skin
cancer, have doubled in the United States (US) during the last 30 years. Officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC) say that if no additional skin cancer prevention efforts are made, the rates of melanoma will continue to rise over the next 15
years. Research shows that 90% of melanomas in the US are caused by excessive exposure to ultra-violet light. Director Dr. Tom
Frieden adds, "Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, and it's on the rise. Protect yourself from the sun by wearing a hat and
clothes that cover your skin. Find some shade if you're outside, especially in the middle of the day when the dangerous rays from the
sun are most intense, and apply broad-spectrum sunscreen." Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, June 2015
Diet: “Do” Is Better Than “Don't”. Telling your child what they can eat may be a better strategy than telling them what they can’t
eat. Researchers analyzed 43 studies that involved either negative or positive nutrition messages and found that most individuals who
knew little about nutrition would rather be told what they should eat and why it is good for them versus what they shouldn't eat and
why it's bad for them. Nutrition Reviews, July 2015
Exercise: Exercise Could Be Key to Reducing Lung Cancer Among Women. A new study suggests that physical activity may
reduce a woman’s risk for lung cancer. Researchers followed nearly 132,000 postmenopausal women over a twelve-year period and
found that a woman's risk for developing lung cancer or dying from it decreased the more minutes she spent per week engaged in
exercise. Lead author Dr. Ange Wang adds, "We saw that as levels of physical activity increase, risk of lung cancer decreased… It
seems to indicate that you don't have to kill yourself… It doesn't need to be strenuous. You just have to put the time in."

Chiropractic: Chronic Disabling Low Back Pain Linked to Psychosocial Risk Factors. Japanese researchers followed 3,811
workers across a variety of industries for one year and found that those who had recent reports of back pain at the start of the study
were three-to-four times more likely to suffer from chronic disabling low back pain a year later if they considered their work
unrewarding, were dissatisfied with their daily life, or experienced anxiety. The research suggests that companies can reduce the
impact of low back pain in the workplace by instituting programs to address these three key risk psychosocial risk factors.

Wellness/Prevention: Managing Motion Sickness. Motion sickness can make travel unbearable. Commons symptoms of motion
sickness include dizziness, nausea, or an uncomfortable sensation during motion or perceived motion. To reduce these symptoms, the
Cleveland Clinic recommends refraining from reading while in a moving vehicle, making sure you are well rested before travel,
keeping hydrated, avoiding greasy foods, looking out at the horizon if possible, snacking on crackers, and minimizing head movement
by leaning your head against a vehicle’s headrest. The Cleveland Clinic, June 2015
