Just a quick reminder that tonight you do not have to give out candy to make kids happy this Halloween. Rather, as I cheerfully pointed out on WTNH-TV in New Haven, Connecticut this past Sunday morning, you can give all kinds of really fun treats that don't trick these poor kids into SUGAR SHOCK! You can give party favors galore that will bring a smile or even a giggle to children's faces -- things like festive glow-in-the-dark fingers, little frisbees adorned with smiley faces or lip-shaped kazoos.

It was thrilling or me to see the ADA take such an important stand by stating, Trans fats are linked to heart disease and this proposal is especially releveant to people with diabetes who are at risk...

If you get diabetes in middle age (aged 40 to 64), you'll get more serious health problems later in life than if you develop the disease in your old age, suggests compelling new research from Johns Hopkins University in the November issue of Diabetes Care. WebMD.com reports about these fascinating findings. Our study reinforces the need to help adults who are middle-aged take steps to prevent diabetes, and suggests that seniors with diabetes should not be treated as a single group, researcher Elizabeth Selvin, PhD, MPH, of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health said in a press release...

As I mentioned before, I've been volunteering my time to an important event that could help to pave the way for the city of New York to become trans fat free.
