Tips On How To Stay Warm And Safe In Cold Weather.
As a changed old snap sends temperatures plunging across much of the United States, one pro offers tips on how to stay warm and safe. "With the gentlemanly knowledge and precautions, most cold-related pain and suffering can be prevented," Dr Barry Rosenthal, rocking-chair of emergency medicine at Winthrop-University Hospital in Mineola, NY, said in a hospital news release. Most obvious: Lots of clothing, preferably in layers. Layered clothing provides the best insulation to memorize body zealousness and a non-permeable outer layer helps shield against strong winds.
For the hands, mittens make out gloves because they keep your hands warmer, and it's also a good idea to in an extra pair of socks. Hats and scarves help warm the head, ears and neck, of course, and everybody under the sun should invest in properly fitted and insulated winter boots. But if boots are too tight, they can focus or cut-off blood circulation to the feet and toes, Rosenthal warned. Boots should also have a tread that provides coffer traction on ice and snow.

Weather Conditions May Affect Prostate Cancer Patients
Weather Conditions May Affect Prostate Cancer Patients.
A unique scrutiny links dry, cold weather to higher rates of prostate cancer. While the findings don't clinch a direct link, researchers suspect that weather may affect dirtying and, in turn, boost prostate cancer rates. "We found that colder weather, and down rainfall, were strongly correlated with prostate cancer," researcher Sophie St-Hilaire, of Idaho State University, said in a statement release.
So "Although we can't say exactly why this correlation exists, the trends are conforming with what we would expect given the effects of climate on the deposition, absorption, and degradation of persistent primary pollutants including pesticides". St-Hilaire and colleagues studied prostate cancer rates in counties in the United States and looked for links to restricted weather patterns.
They found a link, and suggest it may exist because heatless weather slows the degradation of pollutants. Prostate cancer will strike about one in six men, according to training information in the study. Reports suggest it's more common in the northern hemisphere.
