Menopause News Flash: New Study Shows Broccoli May Prevent Arthritis

Eat your broccoli! A compound in the veggie could be key to preventing or slowing the progress of the most common form of arthritis, according to new research from the University of East Anglia.

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago have identified a protein that may help predict women’s breast cancer prognoses, potentially saving women at low risk from undergoing painful therapies, while insuring the most successful treatment strategies for those at high risk.

There’s more to health than pounds on a scale. It turns out, metabolically healthy women have the same cardiovascular disease risk regardless of their weight, says a new study from Denmark.

The recommended daily doses of calcium and vitamin D may not prevent loss of bone mineral density in women undergoing breast cancer therapies, according to new research from Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center.

What’s your workout schedule? Women over the age of 60 may need to exercise only one day a week to significantly improve their strength and endurance, according to a new study from the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
