We apologize for the late announcement of this news but we should make our Canadian readers aware of the following which will affect their health in the future.

Learning to relax also helps immensely because stress inhibits optimum brain functioning.

Fibrocystic Breast Disease occurs when large painful lumps form in the breast(s). Symptoms include tenderness, pain and the formation of scar- like connective tissue. When a woman notices these lumps, she should visit a doctor and he/she will determine whether a mammogram is necessary.
