This really isn't news. Of course acupuncture is great for treating PCOS, as well as most other gynecological conditions, but when it gets picked up by the mainstream media it is worth something I guess. http://www.usnews.com/health-news/diet-fitness/diabetes/articles/2009/09/04/acupuncture-may-help-relieve-polycystic-ovary

Pokin' Away The Blues
For many of you who have had acupuncture in the past, the recent research study verifying acupuncture’s effect on elevating ones mood is simply old news. It is common to have patients
who come in for assorted ailments to report that they felt so much better after the acupuncture… not just in the area of their chief complaint, but overall. Patients often report sleeping better,
having more energy, having clearer thoughts and feeling “more awake”. In many cases, people report feeling their anxiety and depression lift as well.

Research has shown that psychotherapy and medications only help 50-70% of treated patients, and about a third drop conventional treatment prematurely because of side effects. Therefore there is a strong need for more natural therapy such as acupuncture. If you or anyone you know is suffering from depression, please contact me, so together we can decide whether acupuncture could help.

Amazing Health Benefits of Green Tea -
Women who drank 2 or more cups of green tea each day appear to lower their risk of Ovarian cancer by 46% compared to women who drank no tea. Each additional cup of tea they drank lowered
their risk an additional 18%! Another study showed that it also reduces Breast Cancer by 22%. Mayo Clinic did a study showing how green tea can kill leukemia cancer cells in test tubes and increases the remission rate in patients with leukemia.

Special for Earth Day - Skip your shower and save the planet! Dangerous ozone at sea level is neutralized by hair and body oils, an oddity revealed when researchers at University of Missouri found that dirty hair—generally awash in skin oil—consumed seven times more ozone on average than did clean hair. The explanation is strictly chemical: The oils covering our bodies contain double-bonded molecules, including triglycerides, fatty acids, and a substance called squalene, that latch onto the ozone (O3), neutralizing it before we breathe it in.
