                      • 3 Cancer Symptoms Women Should Never Ignore

                         We lead busy lives—we work, spend time with our children or grandchildren, exercise, and even squeeze in date nights with our partners. There are only 24 hours in a day, and sometimes it's hard to fit in regular health screenings. However, those appointments could catch gynecologic cancers early on—when it's most treatable. There are five types of gynecological cancers: cervical, uterine, ovarian, vaginal and vulvar. Risk factors for these cancers include contracting HPV, being 60 or older, family histo...

                         Coming off the heels of Labor Day, it may be hard to believe that the average American once worked 12 hours per day and seven days per week to make a living in the late 1800s. Whether it's due to long hours, lack of job security, or poor work-life balance, stress can lead to depression, anxiety, irritability, headaches, stomachaches, trouble sleeping and muscle pain. Working over 55 hours per week can even raise your risk of ischemic heart disease and stroke. Luckily, many of us aren't putting in 55-hou...

                         Black and orange may not be the only colors you associate with October. Chances are you'll also see friends, family and co-workers donning pink ribbons for breast cancer awareness this month. Though we usually associate pink with women, it's important to know that breast cancer affects people of all genders. In America, 264,000 women and 2,400 men are diagnosed with breast cancer annually. To make sure you "think pink," here are three ways to take care of yourself.

                         You might not be shaking your hips the same way people do in music videos, but hip pain can still thwart women's everyday lives—whether you're dancing, gardening or just walking. While you might think you're too young to be concerned about hHip pain is common for women of all ages, and it's important to see your healthcare provider to ensure it is, in fact, hip pain you're feeling rather than thigh, buttock or lower back pain. If it is hip pain you're battling, it may be caused by one of the following c...

                         When we think of electrolytes, it's often in the form of a bottle of a sports' energy drink after a hard workout or drinking a rehydration beverage when we're sick. Those are great methods for hydration, but keeping your electrolytes balanced is also a way to support your heart's health and well-being. Here are five electrolytes that have been shown to boost heart health—no blue liquid required: Calcium regulates and maintains heart rhythm and blood pressure. Foods high in calcium include dairy, dark le...

While you may watch movies to escape reality and not focus on a total bummer, it is important to consider your gynecological health at least once a year. And what better time to talk about ovarian, cervical, uterine, vaginal and vulvar cancers than during September, which is Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Month. The American Cancer Society estimates that 19,680 women will be diagn...

                         The CDC reports that over 34 million American adults have diabetes. High blood sugar, or hyperglycemia, can cause long-term health complications like cardiovascular disease, nerve damage, gum infections and even eye problems. Hyperglycemia can also damage blood vessels, thereby increasing the likelihood of heart disease, stroke and kidney disease. Because 1 in 3 adults have pre-diabetes (most of which don't know it), we all can benefit from lower glucose levels to help lose weight, reduce blood pressure...

Myth: Only women have to worry about breast cancer. Fact:  Though breast cancer is less common in men, it is more likely to be fatal. The CDC reported 2,300 new cases of male breast cancer in 2017. Myth: You can find all lumps with a self-exam. Fact: Breast cancer doesn't always cause lumps, and if bumps do develop, it could mean cancer has spread to your lymph nodes. While y...

                         Sometimes we refer to people as made of sugar, spice and everything nice. Or so sweet that they might melt if it rains. But saccharine jokes aside, you may want to check your blood sugar. Approximately 1 in 10 Americans have diabetes, and as many as 95% of those people suffer from type 2. The CDC also reports that there's a rising trend in diabetes among young people, which could lead to a 700% spike in type 2 and a 65% increase in type 1 cases by 2060. When your blood sugar levels are higher than norma...
