  5. Supplements we take mostly not ordered by doctors, study says

    There is oh, so much publicity about fish oil pills, calcium and vitamin D &ndash; let alone the many more unusual dietary supplements. Are Americans persuaded?

  7. 5 Questions: Choreographer Alice Alyse on dancing for fitness

    For those of us not blessed with the footwork of Fred Astaire, the notion of taking a dance class might not appeal. But Alice Alyse, a dancer and choreographer who is the artistic director of Joffrey Ballet West and Joffrey Ballet South, says that even the clumsiest among us can benefit from cutting a rug for an hour or so.

  8. The problem with soda taxes

    When it comes to so-called sin taxes, tobacco is simple. Food and drink are complicated. Cigarettes cause terrible disease and have no positive side effects. Taxes on them clearly reduce smoking and contribute to public health. But healthy eating requires balancing both the quantity<strong> </strong>of calories and the quality of those calories &mdash; does the food also deliver protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals? As a result, efforts to tax junk foods or regulate dietary behavior are almost sure to have logical inconsistencies.

  10. Beauty products made with natural ingredients

    It's never been easier to feel like a natural woman. The 1960s mantra about getting ourselves back to the garden now applies to an increasing number of beauty products, with some small companies literally going to the garden and farm to bring customers fresh, natural, pure and organic ingredients in their hair- and skin-care items.
