What’s Your Pain?





What does the average person do when they are not feeling well? They go to their doctor. They wait, most likely are sent for tests, or given a prescription for what ails them. But, we are all patients of the same great and mighty physician. He majors in all specialties of the mind, body, soul, and spirit. He already knows what is troubling us, even before we say a word. He is always on-call. There is never a waiting time, and no worries about cost or insurance filing. We simply make our requests known with a humbled heart. It is then a matter of trust. His presence, love, and healing power will work in a mighty way to begin restoration. He is a healing light of promise that opens the window for a brighter tomorrow. There is never a need for an appointment! – Commentary by Lisa M. Leto

The longer a mother nurses — and the longer she does so exclusively — the bigger the benefits, studies show. Another perceived benefit of breastfeeding is the possibility that it boosts a baby’s brain. A clinical trial involving more than 16,000 infants in Belarus who were randomly assigned to get either special support for breastfeeding (based on a program from the World Health Organization and UNICEF) or a hospital’s usual care found that babies in the first group scored an average of 7.5 points higher on a verbal IQ test and 5.9 points higher on overall IQ. Teachers, apparently, could tell the difference – chi...

Google Image Health is one of the most precious things to us, our families and friends. Nigerians were once known for being the happiest people on earth even with the poor standard of living in the country, but now it’s totally a different story. Nigerians are now tagged as the most depressed in Africa. This was the latest position of the World Health Organisation (WHO) on the mental health status of Nigerians.   Depression is a common and serious mood disorder.

Headache? Google to offer better symptom search results Yellow discharge. Scratchy throat. Sore knee. Millions of searches on Google — in fact 1% of all searches — are to look up symptoms such as these.   Yet, too often, diagnosis by Google isn't all that reliable. Google is rolling out the new feature over the next few days in English in the U.S. to make it easier to get a more accurate list of health conditions that could be causing your symptoms. Ask Google about a symptom, say "headache on the side," it will show you a list of related conditions such as migraine, tension headache or sinusitis. Ask about "headache," and you'll get an overview of the health conditions plus information on how to treat the headache and whether you should see a doctor.
