Gymnastic World

I've added a new link to a business located in Naples, Florida known as Gymnastic World. At Gymnastic World youngsters are able to learn the rudiments of gymnastics and advance from that point as far as their talents and work ethics allow. Carol Mango, the proprietor carved out a successful career in the corporate world before turning her attention to raising her daughter Nicole. Nicole, an active member, has become an accomplished gymnast competing at various events and continually honing her skills.

The health conscious Mango family practices what they believe in- maintaining a healthy diet complemented by exercise. If you live in that part of Florida and are looking for a place where your kids can practice their athletic skills give Carol a call, send an e-mail or simply stop by. You'll get a friendly reception from one of Naples' finest entrepreneurs and very possibly some intelligent adage about health, fitness and just plain fun.

Aspirin vs. Breast Cancer

An article from Doctor's Guide titled, Aspirin May Protect Against Breast Cancer and Benefit Existing Patients, cited a report in the International Journal of Clinical Practice which noted that aspirin may both prevent the onset of breast cancer and provide benefits to patients who already have the disease.

A 20% reduction in the incidence of breast cancer was a figure obtained as a result of recent studies. However further research is needed to determine optimal dosage. Side effects have not yet been adaquately studied. Some side effects of aspirin useage are already known. They include gastrointestinal bleeding and perforation. Prior studies indicating that aspirin may confer protection against bowel cancer were also noted in the article.
