It seems that I can’t pick up any popular health magazine or visit a web site without seeing titles like these: “7 Hints For Good Health,” “20 Ways To Eat Your Way Thin,” or even “12 Tips For A Better Butt.”

Grow Older Gracefully – and Look Great Doing It

ACK LALANNE, an American longevity icon, is still going strong and looking great at age 95. LaLanne gained worldwide recognition for his incredible and prodigious acts of strength and endurance. A pioneer, he studied Henry Gray’s Anatomy of the Human Body and concentrated on bodybuilding, chiropractic medicine and weightlifting – something virtually unheard of in the 1930s.

This is a great time to be alive. People are living longer, healthier lives, staying more active than ever before, and most importantly, feeling good into their 90s – and beyond!

A “MOMMY MAKEOVER” surgery usually includes a tummy tuck to help restore a post pregnancy belly to a firmer, flatter stomach, as well as a breast lift and/or augmentation that gives the mommy the full, breasts they lost due to breast feeding.

“Mommy Makeovers” are not new – just the name and popularity are. People are living longer and healthier and we all want to look as good as we feel.

Living With Breast Cancer In the 21st Century

MAMMOGRAPHY is the process of using low-dose amplitude-X-rays to examine the breast, and is used as a diagnostic as well as a screening tool. The goal of mammography is the early detection of breast cancer.

BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Breast cancer (BCA) remains the most common cancer among American women. A woman has a 1 in 8 chance of developing invasive BCA during her life. However, only 1 in 35 women will ultimately die of the disease. The death rates from BCA have been declining due to earlier detection. This optimistic outlook reflects the years of research into better detection and treatment of this disease.
