0%	204.	ATT Worldnet - Health A new review of the research shows that smokers who reduce their daily cigarette use often quit smoking completely, instead of permanently settling for fewer cigarettes. This review shows no health benefits from reducing -- but not quitting -- smoking. Recently, Norwegian researchers reported that heavy smokers need to quit smoking completely, not simply cut back, to gain health benefits (www.webmd.com/content/article/130/117650.htm).

0%	207.	ATT Worldnet - Health The p53 gene spurs the tanning process to reduce UV damage, note the researchers, who included David Fisher, MD, PhD, of Boston's Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School. "The induction of beta-endorphin appears to be hard-wired to the tanning pathway," Fisher says in a Cell Press news release. One day, skin lotions may be able to activate p53 just enough to trigger tanning without allowing UV damage, the editorialists note.

Earlier, smaller studies have been mixed, with some showing an increased risk for incontinence in women who have undergone hysterectomies and other studies showing no such risk.
