An apple a day. Health, hype and the media. Sunday, 8 March 2009. A cotton bud emergency. As a lot of my recent posts have been about rather serious issues, here is a lighter story, from one of my favourite health-related blogs, Nee Naw.

An apple a day. Health, hype and the media. Sunday, 16 November 2008. Very interesting piece here. In the Times today by writer Francesca Okeke about growing up with a mentally ill parent.

An apple a day...: Dignity in dying?

http://gemmapritchardhealth.blogspot.com/2009/03/dignity-in-dying.html

Measuring fitness | Focus on Health and Fitness

https://jvellul.wordpress.com/2009/07/28/measuring-fitness

Focus on Health and Fitness. Cervical cancer screening for under 25s has little impact. On: July 28, 2009. My Aim- I want to back fly. Just a quick one, as it’s already quite late. I was thinking today when I managed to stretch further than I did before about how we measure our fitness. What gives us that sense of achievement? Or are the ones who keep going really concerned about their health? I might do a poll tomorrow. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Address never made public).
