Should Energy Drinks Carry Warning Labels?
http://health.webmd.com/cgi-bin21/DM/y/e2HR0Nec4j0IfV0BUEi0Ev
Why It Matters
There may be a worrisome amount of caffeine in your energy drink; how
much of it depends on your preferred brand. The makers of these
products, however, say no warnings are needed. Get the details in this
report published in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence.

Stroke Patients May Have a Bit More Time to Get Help
http://health.webmd.com/cgi-bin21/DM/y/e2HR0Nec4j0IfV0BUFG0EO
Why It Matters
Believing they have just a three-hour window to start clot-dissolving
drugs for stroke, doctors often say, "Time is brain tissue." Trouble
is, patients don't often rush to the ER when stroke symptoms begin.
Could the treatment window really be a tad wider than three hours? See
what researchers report in this new study published in The New England
Journal of Medicine.
