Little-Known
Facial Disorder Puts 13 Million Americans in the Red
The
current epidemic of sky-high credit card debt is not why an estimated 13
million Americans are now wearing a stressed, red flush on their faces.
The symptoms come from rosacea, a red-faced, acne-like skin disorder that,
like overspending, can spiral out of control and leave its victims
emotionally bankrupt.

Shake
Away Risk of Stroke
As
several national health organizations renew their education
programs, it's time to remind Americans of the risks of high
blood pressure that can lead to strokes - the third leading
cause of death in the U.S. National Stroke Awareness Month and
National High Blood Pressure Education Month, both in May, are
themes to remind us that 50 million people in the U.S. have high
blood pressure. Yet only about two-thirds are aware they have
the condition. |

One
in Four Children Has a Vision Problem
Among
your child and his three closest friends, at least one of them has a
vision problem that, if uncorrected, could lead to difficulties in
school and sports, and could eventually lead to blindness. That's why
Sears Optical and Prevent Blindness America are sponsoring National Eye
Exam Month from July 30 through September 9. During National Eye Exam
Month, parents are encouraged to bring their kids in to have their eyes
examined. |
