Cranberries Reduce Urinary Tract Infections


C


ranberries, a staple on most holiday tables, can help


women reduce their risk of urinary tract infections (UTI). A


recent study published in the journal Phytotherapy Research tested the impact of consuming whole-cranberry fruit powder on women that had experienced two or more UTIs in the previous 12 months. Of the 182 study participants, 89 were given 500 milligrams of


the cranberry powder daily for six months. The remaining 93 women ingested a placebo. The cranberry group reported signifi cantly fewer infections than the placebo group. In addition, it took the women in the cranberry group more time to develop a fi rst UTI than the women in the control group.


Why Some Kids Grow Up with Fewer Allergies


A


study in the journal Pediatrics, published by the American


Academy of Pediatrics, has found that the common childhood habits of thumb sucking and nail biting can reduce the risk of adolescent and adult allergies.


Researchers followed more than 1,000 individuals from 5 through 32


years old, monitoring these two habits at ages 5, 7, 9 and 11. The subjects were tested for allergies at 13 using a skin-prick test and again at 32. Of all participants, 31 percent were frequent thumb suckers and nail biters, and those children had a lower incidence of allergic reactions than the others. These results support a hygiene hypothesis suggesting that early exposure to microbial organisms reduces the risk of developing allergies.

Bright Lights Encourage Healthy Eating


R


esearch published


in the Journal of Marketing Research links bright light to healthier food choices. The study observed 160 diners at four separate metropolitan locations of a chain dinner restaurant between 6 and 8 p.m. Two of the restaurants used bright lighting (250 lux luminance) and the other two locations had dim lighting (25 lux luminance). The researchers found that diners at the well-lit locations were more likely to choose healthy options such as baked or grilled fi sh and chicken than the patrons at the dimly lit restaurants. These results were replicated in a laboratory test of 700 college students where scientists attributed students’ healthier choices to the alert feelings that being in a bright room elicits.
