Introducing a new authoritative report on Women's Health from the editors of the University of California, Berkeley Wellness Letter…

 

To your grandmother -- and others of her generation -- getting older was a thing to fear.

They risked broken bones any time they fell ... their skin became wrinkled and covered with "liver spots" ... their eye sight dimmed ... hearing diminished ... and many lost their lives to lung cancer, breast cancer, diabetes, and other serious illnesses.

But thanks to incredible breakthroughs in medical treatments, pharmaceuticals, early detection diagnostic tests, and nutrition, the outlook is considerably rosier for women today:

Although heart disease remains the number one killer of both men and women in the United States, there are now simple things you can do at home to lower your risk of cardiac illness by as much as 50%.

In 2007, the FDA approved a new vaccine that prevents women from becoming infected with the human papilloma virus. And clinical trials have proven that the vaccine does in fact protect most women from cervical cancer.

Although breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women, the mortality rates from breast cancer have declined steadily for nearly two decades, most notably among women under age 50. Among the factors credited for this drop: increased use of mammograms and improved methods of treatment.

As a result, women are living longer ... staying healthier ... and enjoying more productive lives than ever before

For instance, the average woman in the U.S. today has a lifespan of 81 years. By comparison, a woman born in the early 1900s had an average lifespan of only 47 years -- dying before her fiftieth birthday.

And there's more good news almost every month -- from innovative ways to maintain bone density in your senior years to reviving lost sex drive in menopausal women. In fact, there are so many more health options for women today than when your grandma was a girl, the choices are almost bewildering.

From Oprah to women's magazines, to the Internet and the bookstore, there's no shortage of news and information on women's health. But how do you sort through it, so you can make more informed decisions about your own diet, exercise, treatment, and medications?

Fortunately, there's a new, authoritative, and up-to-date resource -- from one of the world's most respected public health institutions -- that you can turn to for evidence-based guidance on how women can live longer, more active, and healthier lives. And you may preview it absolutely risk-FREE in the privacy of your home.

Introducing ...

The Wellness Report on Women's Health

With thousands of books ... articles ... websites ... magazines ... and clinical studies published every day, no single person can keep up with all of the new developments in women's health. It would be a full-time job -- and I'm guessing you already have too much to do.

Also, unless you're an M.D. yourself, do you really have t he background to separate the good science from the hype in modern medicine today?

That's where the Wellness Report series from the University of California, Berkeley Wellness Letter can help save you time and money while living longer with optimal health and wellness.

Our editorial advisors, all M.D.s or Ph.D.s with impressive credentials in their specialties, conduct exhaustive searches of the medical literature on a particular topic -- in this case, breakthroughs in women's health.

They then review the research to ensure that it's based on scientifically sound methods ... and to confirm the accuracy and reliability of the findings.

Next, our editors painstakingly convert medical jargon, formulas, and statistics into clear, plain English. I know you'll find it fascinating reading -- and useful.

Mindful Eating. In this nondieting approach to weight loss, you do not count calories, measure food, or even restrict foods, but use internal cues to guide you about when and how much to eat.

Energy Density: Eating More To Lose More. People tend to eat roughly the same amount of food a day, regardless of calories, so eating low-energy-dense foods allows you to fill up on fewer calories.

Was Atkins Right After All? What the longest and largest study testing low-carb against low-fat diets concluded.

Keeps you on the leading edge of women's health

Great strides are being made all the time in women's health.

Yet obstacles to living a full, healthy, and energetic life still remain:

Cardiovascular disease remains the #1 killer of women in America, with 420,000 killed each year.

More than 230,000 new cases of breast cancer were diagnosed last year.

About 22,000 American women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year.

8 million American women suffer from osteoporosis.

Close to half of American women have high cholesterol.

New vaccines ... prescription drugs ... dietary supplements ... hormone treatments ... medical procedures ... medical tests ... and lifestyle changes are being found effective for early detection and treatment of everything from Alzheimer's to psoriasis.

But as a woman, you can't wait around for your doctors -- even your gynecologist -- to ferret it out for you. There's just too much medical information being created for even the best healthcare practitioner to keep up with all of it.

But at the University of California, Berkeley, we have a staff of dedicated physicians and medical editors whose job is to keep abreast of the important developments in women's healthcare ... and alert you, in our annual Wellness Reports, to the ones that can really make a difference in your life.

To keep you up to date and on the cutting edge of health and medical issues, we offer an annual update service to our readers.
