serving of mixed nuts and following the Mediterranean diet can help
reverse some of the harmful changes brought on by metabolic syndrome,
which can increase risk of heart disease.

http://health.webmd.com/cgi-bin21/DM/y/e3wi0Nec4j0IfV0BZcf0Ee

Men Need More Vitamin D
http://health.webmd.com/cgi-bin21/DM/y/e3wi0Nec4j0IfV0BZcg0Ef
Why It Matters
Over the last two decades, men have been getting less vitamin D. That
can mean trouble, because experts suspect deficiency in this nutrient
can lead to higher risks of cancer, heart disease, depression, and
other serious conditions. Will this study from the American Journal of
Clinical Nutrition prompt more men to take a daily supplement and
drink more milk?

Even a Half-Dose of the Flu Shot Is Helpful
http://health.webmd.com/cgi-bin21/DM/y/e3wi0Nec4j0IfV0BZch0Eg
Why It Matters
For those healthy adults younger than 50 who have been vaccinated in
the past, even a half-dose of the flu vaccine works. Will this finding
help more people get a flu shot - especially if there's ever a
shortage of vaccines? See this report from the Archives of Internal
Medicine.
