Written by Angeline A. De Leon, Staff Writer. This study suggests that a specific amino acid (AA) profile is associated with greater bone mineral density (BMD) and lower subsequent fracture risk, independent of diet and lifestyle factors. (more…)

Written by Angeline A. De Leon, Staff Writer. Reiki, a cost-effective and safe alternative treatment, while equivalent to physiotherapy in pain reduction and ADL score improvement, was significantly more effective than drug therapy in the participating subjects with intervertebral disc herniation.
