kettlebells
I was so impressed by this article on how kettlebell workouts can help with back pain (a big problem for me) that I just bought a set of kettlebells and this beginner's and this more advanced DVD. Will bring more circulation to my core, am hoping. Will let you know how it works!

study shows Chinese herbs shrink fibroids (but no better than mifepristone)
Interesting study here. It mentions two herbs. One is Nona Roguy, something from Malaysia that women use post-partum and which can be found here (yes at $60 it's expensive but I looked on the manufacturer's website in Malaysia using Google Translate and apparently it's the same price there) and one is huoxue sanjie tang, which is for blood stasis and dispersing masses but I can't find anywhere to buy it.
Also here's another study showing efficacy of Xiao Zheng Wan.

But interesting report here of doing minimally invasive surgery for a very large fibroid. Article here.
conflicting info on milk and fibroids
Story here.
My guess is that the positive effect with African American women was due to the Vitamin D in the milk.
Also, it doesn't even talk about raw vs. pasteurized, or about Chinese medicine theory on dairy.

parabens found in ALL breast cancer patient tissue samples
Scary story here, they are just starting to investigate these. Didn't know they were in food too. Parabens are estrogenic so can't be good for people with fibroids or people concerned about fertility.
