Break Your Makeup Rules

Old rule: Shimmery makeup is taboo in the daytime (or if you’re over 30). New rule: Shimmer can flatter anyone, anytime. Today’s formulas, which are no longer garish and glittery, can actually make you look younger because they contain finely ground, light-reflecting particles that give skin a soft glow. A wider range of shades, like camel and pink, allows shimmer to be worn day and night. But limit the luminous look to no more than two features at a time....

Calcium Supplements Linked To Heart Attack Prevention

Swiss researchers tracked 24,000 men and women for 11 years. They found that people who regularly took a calcium supplement increased their risk for heart attack by 86%. But here’s the important distinction: Dietary calcium was not linked to an increased risk for heart disease. In fact, people who ingested the most calcium through their diets actually lowered their risk for heart attack by 31%. What’s going on here? It may have to do with the level of calcium in your blood, says Ian Reid, MD, a professor of medicine and endocrinology at the University of Auckland in New Zealand, whose past research has linked calcium to heart disease risk....

The base tan myth goes a little something like this: ’I’m going to Florida and I don’t want to get burned while I’m there, so I’m going to the tanning salon to get some ‘base color,’ explains Tim Turnham, Ph.D, executive director of the Melanoma Research Foundation. If that wasn’t bad enough, what happens next is worse: “Then, once they’re on vacation, that person thinks they aren’t at risk for burns and they spend their time in the sun unprotected....

Dessert S Deadly Risk Prevention

Researchers analyzed the diets of both healthy people and colorectal cancer patients (including over 170 foods) and found that high-fat and high-sugar foods (like chips and cakes) and sugary drinks were linked to a 18% and 12% higher cancer risk, respectively. The researchers aren’t quite sure why, but one obvious guess is that the offending foods are higher in calories, says study coauthor Evropi Theodoratou, PhD.
