Tara Parker Pope Writes - Osteoporosis Drugs May be Weakening Our Bones

It sure feels like women are once again marching into the murky depths of health confusion hell.  First it was the breast cancer scare surrounding  hormone replacement drugs.  Now it's the osteoporosis drugs that are being questioned.    

This week Tara Parker Pope wrote an article in The New York TImes that I found very disturbing.  The big question now appears to be - are the osteoporosis drugs actually weakening our bones instead of strengthening them?  Her article based on a series of case reports, did say that that the weakening occurs in only a small number of people taking the drugs ...  but you know once the horse is out of the barn, everybody starts to panic.  There may be 92 good reasons to take this medication, but now we'll focus only on why they may do more harm than good.

Here's a small piece of Pope's article.  Bones are in a constant state of remodeling — dissolving microscopic bits of old bone, a process called resorption, and rebuilding new bone. After age 30 or so, a woman’s bones start to dissolve faster than they can be rebuilt, and after menopause she may develop thin, brittle bones that are easily broken. Bisphosphonates, including Fosamax, Procter & Gamble’s Actonel and GlaxoSmithKline’s Boniva, slow this process.  To read more click here.

There's no question that all of us need to be informed consumers, especially when it comes to our health.  But, I urge you not to accept everything you read as gospel.  Do your research, then have your questions answered by a doctor you trust.  Each of us has a body that is unique.  That's why you can't rely on the one-size-fits-all data coming out of these case reports.

In my opinion, there is no reason to panic if you are taking an osteoporosis drug.  You can be sure there will be many more studies coming out with very different conclusions.

Identify Theft - Are Your Medical Records At Risk?

Medical Identity Theft is on the rise, so I want all you Real Cougars to protect yourself so your're not the one left crying!

What's going on?  Some unscrupulous people are taking your name and health insurance without your knowledge or consent.  Then they are getting medical treatment or prescription drugs with your identity.  Of the $2.1 trillion spent on health care each year in this country, as much as $90 billion is lost to fraud. 

How does it happen?  Usually it's an inside job.  It happens when a worker in a hospital or doctor's office steals patients' identities en masse and sells them to criminals who use them obtain payment for fake procedures.  And, in these tough economic times some folks are actually selling their ID's to these bad guys in exchange for cash.  Hard to believe right?   

How do you protect yourself?  

• if your health plan gives you an option to monitor your benefits online, sign up
• if something doesn't look right, call your insurer right away
• always read the explanation of benefits your insurance company sends you

Couples Living Alone While Together

Couples are spending less and less time together.  I think this has been going on for a very long time, but now we're starting to pay more attention to it.  Separateness is now seen as normal relationship behavior.  It's so prevalent that even marriage education programs are finding it necessary to change their rules.  In the past you had to attend with your mate, now you can come solo. 

For some couples leading separate lives isn't a problem, but for others it causes a lot of emotional strain.  If you want more togetherness there is something you can try. It's called "emotionally focused therapy (EFT)".  Apparently, the techniques guide couples to recognize that they are emotionally attached to the partners, in much the same way children are attached to their parents.  The goal is to teach both partners to be more open, responsive and forgiving.  Isn't that the goal for every type of couples therapy? 

In a a typical EFT session, the therapist explores why the husband withdraws from the relationship and it's usually because he feels intimidated and helpless.  The wife who is angry expands that anger to fear and sadness.  Nirvana is achieved when the true emotions are finally exposed.  Only then is it possible for the husband to assert his need for respect and become more accessible to his wife. And the wife can also ask for the comfort she needs.  This new cycle of bonding interactions replaces the negative cycles of  pursue/withdraw or criticize/defend and you're on your way to a happier relationship.

As I said that scenario is nirvana.  What usually happens - the couples leave the therapist's office and the old behavior patterns return.  For change to occur  both partners have to be totally committed.  They have to be willing to put the past behind them, forgive and start fresh.  But maybe that just happens in the movies. Remember in Sex and the City when Miranda and Steve agreed to meet halfway on the Brooklyn Bridge?  This symbolized they were both ready to make their relationship work.  I wonder if they followed through?  Guess we'll have to wait for the next installment to find out.

Maureen Dowd Asks A Priest - Who Would Be The Ideal Husband?

"It's summertime and that means tis the season for messy celebrity divorces",says Maureen Dowd of the New York Times.

This year it's Christie Brinkley/Peter Cook fighting it out in court and the Madonna/Guy Ritchie/A-Rod triangle which is yet to be determined.

In Sunday's New York Times Op-Ed Maureen asks " how do you avoid a relationship where you end up saying, “The man who I was living with, I just didn’t know who he was” — as Brinkley did in court when talking about her husband’s $3,000-a-month Internet porn and swinger site habit? (Not to mention the 18-year-old mistress/assistant)".

To answer her own question she interviewed Father Pat Connor, a 79-year-old Catholic priest born in Australia and based in Bordentown, N.J.  He has spent his celibate life — including nine years as a missionary in India — mulling connubial bliss. His decades of marriage counseling led him to distill some “mostly common sense” advice about how to dodge mates who would maul your happiness.

For 40 years Father Connor has been giving a lecture — “Whom Not to Marry. To read his sage advice  click here. 

Sunscreens That Really Protect Your Skin

Before you head outside you should always apply a generous amount of sunscreen, even on cloudy days.  But, make sure you are using a product that does what is says it does. Four out of 5 sunscreens don't give the protection you need.   They block too little of the sun's harmful UV radiation, or contain ingredients with significant safety concerns.  

The Environmental Working Group (EWG) a non-profit, non-partisan research organization warn us that popular brand like Coppertone, Neutrogena and Banana Boat don't deliver the protection we need. 

Here are their top picks of sunscreens that work the best:

• Key Soap Solar Rx Therapeutic Sunblock
• Trukid Sunny Days Facestick Mineral Sunscreen UVA/UVB Broad Spectrum
• California Baby Sunblock Stick No Fragrance
• Badger Suncreen
• Marie Veronique Skin Therapy Sun Serum

Gyno Med Spa - No I'm Not Kidding

Just when you think you've heard it all somebody comes up with a new idea.  Here's the latest entry in the highly competetive spa business.  A gyno spa - where you go just to pamper your genital area. Where is this bastion of womanhood located?  New York City of course.

It's called The Perfect Phit (pelvic health integrated techniques) and its all about helping women get in shape from the inside out.

The spa offers the signature treatment of a $150 gynecological exam to determine whether your pelvic muscle tone is weak, moderate or strong.  Then Dr. Laura Romanzi prescribes vaginal workouts she calls personal training.  This training is designed to improve bladder control and also give the woman the added bonus of more intense orgasms.

Now ,while visiting the spa you, can go one step further and indulge yourself in a pelvic beautification treatment.  With names like  Lazy Susan, Core Restore and my personal favorite Lip Sync, I think you get the picture..  

Dr. Romazi says " her goal is to teach every women how to properly perform Kegel exercises.  She believes if you have a vagina you need to do these exercises.  It's the dental floss of feminine fitness".

Madonna and Alex Rodriquez - Come on Cougar Is This True?

Could this be true?  Us Weekly is reporting that Alex Rodriguez has been making late-night visits to Madonna's Central Park West apartment.  Apparently, Madonna's doorman is spilling the beans.

Rumors about Madonna's marital troubles with Guy Richie have been swilrling around for some time now. On Tuesday, her spokeswoman shot down the rumors saying "there are no plans for Madonna and Guy to divorce."

So, we'll have to see what happens with the 49 year old diva and the 32 year old Yankee slugger. Personally, I hope this is isn't true, since A-Rod's wife Cynthia just gave birth to their second daughter less than three months ago.

Cleavage Without Creases

Let's admit it cougars, we all love to expose a little bit of clevage when it's appropriate.  It's fun and it makes us feel flirty and sexy. But, here's the thing.  Sleeping on our side squishes our breasts together and that creates creases. As our skin's elasticity starts to break down, the bounce back factor just ain't what it used to be.

Here's what one woman did to help solve the problem. One night  she came up with the idea of getting one of her t-back fitness bras and putting it on backwards (t in the front cups in the back).  What this did was to compress the area between her breasts and keep them apart.  And guess what, she said it worked!  She woke up the next morning with hardly any creases.

Making your own device can be cheaper but there is a product you can buy called ChestSavers. It separates the breasts, just like the homemade version but, it also creates a suction across the chest, smoothing out the entire area.  The company says "it  promotes deep penetration of moisturizers  resulting in a smoother, younger looking chest and neck."

If any of you cougars have tried anything like this, let us know if it really works. 

The Real Cougar Woman On Fox and Friends

On Saturday morning I was interviewed on Fox and Friends. What a great response I got.  The power of the media is absolutely unbelievable.  Since the show, over 10,000 people have visited this blog.  So I send a big thank you to my new friends at Fox.

And, because of that exposure, so many new  fabulous females have found the  Real Cougar Club.  That's my social network for women over 40.  Of course, as you might expect, I've gotten a lot of requests from guys who want to join too, but right now this membership is for women only.  Thanks guys for your continued interest, I do appreciate it.

Flip Flops And Other Hazards For Your Feet

Summer is here and that means it's time to show off your tootsies. But before you start in with the weekly  pedicures or start running barefoot through the park, here's some common myths that could actually harm your feet.

Myth: Flats, flip-flops and even going barefoot are perfectly fine for your feet.

Fact: Flip flops do not provide any support and can lead to ankle sprains and tendonitis. Flats can be painful to your feet by causing severe heel pain and blisters. Walking barefoot can lead to foot problems such as cuts, abrasions, bruises and puncture wounds.

Diagnosis: Wear flip-lops or flats, but only for a few hours at a time.  If you wear them longer, stretch your Achilles tendon afterward. As for walking barefoot - only at home - but still be careful of small objects that could be caught in your carpet.

Myth: You don't need to put sunscreen on your feet.

Fact:  Forgetting to apply sunscreen to your feet can increase the risk of skin cancer.  Too often African and Asian American women don't believe this is necessary because of their darker skin tone.

Diagnosis: No matter what your race or ethnicity, the legs and feet are not immune to the sun's effects  So be sure to use suncreen with an SPF of at least 30 with both UVB and UVA protection, and re-apply every few hours.

Myth: All pedicure salons use sterile instruments, so they are safe.

Fact: Unfortunately, this is not always the case. To be safe, it's best to invest in your own nail files, clippers and cuticle sticks.  If you choose to use shop instruments, make sure they are well sterilized after each use.

Myth: Soaking your feet in the motorized tub at a nail salon is perfectly fine, because they scrub them out after each use.

Fact: Often the antiseptic that is put in the water between clients doesn't catch all the germs. Bacteria and fungus can get caught in the filter of the motorized tub and still cause a problem.

Diagnosis:  It would be safer to ask the technician if they have a clean bowl or basin to use instead, with individual liners for even greater protection.

This summer take care of your feet.  We all know how painful it is when you don't.  

Erectile Dysfunction Starts At Work

As many as 1 in 5 men are suffering from a loss of libido because they are stressed out at work. And, only 54% of men realize that this could be the root cause of their erectile dysfunction (ED). Prolonged stress either at home or at work is directly associated to low testosterone levels, which by the way, isn't a good thing for any guy's overall health.   

Stress in the workplace is hard to avoid.  But, if his sexual performance is starting to wilt, perhaps he will pay closer attention as to why it's happening.  Men should think about the underlying cause of their ED but they probably won't.  Once again it will be our responsibility to get them motivated enough to go to their doctor and check it out.

Low testosterone levels (which may be stress-related) can cause heart problems because it's the hormone that protects a man's heart. It can also prevent PDE5 inhibitors like Viagra, Cialis, & Levitra from working properly.  A man suffering with ED should ask their doctors to test their testosterone levels regularly.  If it's low, there are several therapies that can fix the problem.  

So take action, he'll be a lot happier and so will you.

  

Sleeping Well Translates To Having A Good Marriage?

Okay, this finally explains why so many women are so sleep deprived.  Researchers at the University of Pittsburg decided that the secret of a good night's sleep in a happy marriage.

Apparently, they studied nearly 2,000 middle-aged women across the country. They recorded all the womens' own assessment of her marital happiness and compared this with how well she slept.

The team led by Dr Wendy Troxel found that happily married women had less difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, fewer early morning awakenings, and more restful sleep as compared to unhappily married women.

I don't know about you, but every woman I talk to these days is complaining about being awfully tired.  They're not getting enough sleep, they're tossing and turning all night and waking up totally exhausted.  This certainly doesn't say very good things about our closet personal relationship  does it?

Here's something to think about.  Could we end our sleepless nights once and for all by saying adios to our significant other?   If any of you have already tested this theory please let us know it worked.  Yes, it's a drastic measure, but all of us are in desperate need of our beauty sleep.

Women Entrepreneurs Listen To This!

"For years women have been told that in order to get ahead in business they have to be more like men.  Not true!  Women are natural leaders, innovators and relationship builders - all key entrepreneurial skills," says business owner and author Elizabeth Gordon. 

If you're thinking about starting your own business or have already taken the plunge, you have to hear my interview with Elizabeth Gordon. 

Elizabeth is the founder of Flourishing Business, a company that shows entrepreneurs how to grow their companies. She is also the author of "The Chic Entrepreneur".  This book is a clever step-by-step guide showing women how to overcome the challenges of getting their businesses to run profitably.

In our interview Elizabeth outlines how to write a one page business plan - a prerequisite for success.    She also talks about the 3 things any Chic Entrepreneur needs to pay attention to.

So, if you're in business or even thinking about that possibility, run and get your pad and pencil.  You can't afford to miss this opportunity to hear from a woman who has created a successful business and wants to tell you how she did it.

Heart Monitor and Sports Bra Combo

 We've all been taught how important it is to stay in our "target zone" when exercising but too often we don't bother to monitor our heart rate.  Now you can be diligent without even thinking about it.  Just put on your NuMetrex Sports Bra and be ready to get the most out of your cardio.

NuMetrix has made it so the electronic sensing technology is integrated directly into the fabric.  These sensors maintain contact with your skin and so they pick up your heart's electrical pulse.  A tiny transmitter is snapped into a small pocket in the front of the bra which instantaneously radios your heart rate for digital readout on a heart rate monitor wrist watch or fitness machine with a integrated monitoring device.

I think this is a great idea.  Kind of "the set it and forget it mentality".  If you're interested in trying one of these bras for yourself here's the cpmpany's website.  By the way, you can buy this bra alone or with accessories that include a heart rate monitor wristwatch.  NuMetrix clothes are compatible with the Polar Wearlink transmitter and all Polar heart rate monitors, so these folks are making it easy for us to take care of ourselves.

If you order one, let me know if you like it!

Real Cougar Woman's Perfect Guy

I found this article online and loved it.  It was written by Robin Kaye who obvioiusly knows what she's talking about.  Robin gives us the many reasons why a Domestic God is very different from a Domesticated Man.  My question to Robin is where can we find such a rare specimen?  Do these dream men really exist?  And if they do, what kind of woman would we have to be to capture such a treasure?

                       *       *       * 

Writing a Domestic god hero is difficult because the difference between a Domestic god and a Domesticated man is like the difference between a cougar and a house cat. They both purr when they get their ears scratched, they both dislike water, but you’ll never train a cougar to use a litter box. Cougars are cunning, beautiful and definitely a breed all their own—much like the Domestic god. They might have all the same body parts as a house cat, but that’s where the comparison ends. For example:

The Domesticated man does the dishes because he doesn’t want to fight with you about it. A Domestic god does the dishes to give you just the right amount of time to anticipate his arrival in the bedroom.

A Domesticated man will wash and dry the laundry. A Domestic god will do the laundry—but he’ll also wash and dry your hair.

A Domesticated man will pick up the dry cleaning because you told him to. A Domestic god picks up the dry cleaning because he saw it on your to-do list.

A Domesticated man will take your car out to run errands; a Domestic god will take your car out to run errands and fill up your gas tank so you don’t have to.

Domesticated men will grudgingly pick up feminine products only in the most dire of emergencies. Domestic gods don’t mind picking them up anytime, along with some chocolate to make you feel better.

Domesticated men prefer take-out. Domestic gods prefer slow cooking to microwaves in both the kitchen and the bedroom.

Domesticated men will plan weekend trips for two to get away. Domestic Gods will plan romantic weekend trips for two, but will also surprise you with trips for you and your girlfriends.

Every time I write about a Domestic god, I walk a fine line between the hero being--well, a hero, and the hero being a wimp. But after looking at the differences closely, both in real men and fictional men alike, I’ve come to believe that what makes a Domestic god a Domestic god, and a Cougar a Cougar is all in the delivery.

Solar Powered Brief Case That Recharges Your Batteries

Technology just keeps getting better and better.  Reware has just come out with the first solar powered briefcase called ProFolio.

Not having fully charged devices will now be as dated as dial-up Internet. This bag will charge your cell phones, PDA’s, and ipods just as an old-school charger would.

While the design isn’t going to send top fashion designers scrambling to make knock-offs, it’s sleek, versatile, and let’s face it, you don’t always need to make a statement with every accessory. What it might lack in sequins and glitter, it makes up for functionality. It has side and bottom padding to protect computers, multiple pockets, file dividers, reinforced shoulder straps, padded grip handles and can carry up to a 15” laptop.

You just plug your device into it and it will start charging using sunlight.

The Juice Bags ProFolio will retail for $399, but RewareStore.com is offering a special deal of $299 while supplies last. 

J. Crew Adding Concierge Service in Their Stores

Don't see what you want - just walk up to the "just ask desk."  It's a new concierge service  J. Crew  launched last month at its Rockefeller Center store in Manhattan. In these tough economic times smart reatailers are doing whatever it takes to entice customers.

At the desk you can make appointments with personal shoppers, arrange private shopping parties, pre-order items and even look at color swatches for bridesmaid dresses that are sold online.  J. Crew hopes to add this new service in at least 30 of their stores over the next year.  

If you happen to be a tourist who's not familiar with the city, the concierge desk is also available to give you directions, make restaurant reservations and even give recommendations for shows and special events taking place in that particular city.

What's next -  champagne and strawberries? 

Cougar Power - How Far Can We Take It?

There are some who say that Cougar power won American idol for David Cook as the 40 and over women delivered the votes for the rock and roll singer. Cougars also put Sex and the City to the top of the box office, but can they deliver big numbers in the political world?  Are cougars a voting bloc and can Sarah Palin deliver the cougar vote for McCain over  Barack Obama?

At 44 she is the youngest governor in Alaska history.  Polin can certainly relate to this new power block of American women, I refer to as Real Cougars.

Would McCain dare?  Many believe that she is a great veep choice for lots of reasons but if she can help bring women over to McCain she would be a solid choice.  Obama already has big problems when it comes to older women voters and the more women McCain can pry away from the Illinois senator, the better opportunity he has to win.

She is always mentioned as as a choice for John McCain and he has his work cut out for him, especially with his television appearances.  Palin is great on TV and combined with the possible "cougar power" voting theory that might just be reason enough to grant her a VP nod.  Can she pull it off?  We're going to find out very soon.

Kim Cattrall aka Real Cougar In A New HBO Series

For all you Kim Cattrall fans (and I'm one of them), she has just signed on for a new sexy HBO series.  

This time she's leaving her Sex and the City girlfriends behind as she takes on the role of a middle-aged wife and mother in living in New York.   In the show her character is rediscovering her sexuality and beginning to question her place in the world and the choices she has made.  This very minute how many millions of women are asking themselves those very same questions? Sounds to me like HBO is right on the money.

The new series is called "Sensitive Skin" and it's a remake of a British show. Being the smart cougar that she is, Cattrall insisted on an HBO development deal as part of her overall compensation package for agreeing to star in the ‘Sex and the City.  

Will Kim make a big splash without the magnetic star power of  Sarah Jessica?  My money is on Kim.

By the way, Kim paid a visit to my to my hair salon last Tuesday to have her blond tresses touched up. Everybody was raving about how beautiful she was.  Fifty something looks pretty darn good to me.  Don't you agree?

Collagen Regeneration Key To Maintaining Youthful Skin

Fine wrinkles, deep creases, saggy areas around the mouth and neck, is there anything we can do to fight back?  Of course there is. A team of scientists at the University of Michigan show there are some existing treatments that effectively counteract the structural breakdown inside our skin so it's possible to stimulate the growth of new, youthful collagen.

After a decade of studying, here's what they found. There are three types of available skin treatments that are effective in stimulating new collagen:  topical reinoic acid - carbon dioxide laster resurfacing - injections of cross-linked hyaluronc acid.

A 2007 study looked at Restylane, marketed as a dermal filler, and found that injections of the product caused fibroblasts to stretch, promoting new collagen, and also limited the breakdown of collagen. Fibroblast cells are the key producers of collagen.  If you make more collagen go in, it provides an environment in which fibroblasts recover and make more collagen.

Topical lotitions containing retinol, a form of Vitamin A found in many skin-care products were tested and apparently they significantly reduced wrinkles and skin roughness  by promoting new collagen.

Other studies have shown why some laser treatments work and some less powerful ones do not. Carbon dioxide laser resurfacing is effective because it removes the aging dermis; in the three-week regrowth process, new, young collagen is produced.

As skin ages, there is increased production of the enzyme collagenase, which breaks down collagen. Then fibroblasts, the critical players in firm, healthy skin, lose their normal stretched state. When they collapse more breakdown enzymes are produced. 

Our aging skin is a bad news good news scenario. The bad news - it's a viscious cycle.  The good news -  there are treatments that can slow down the process.

Sex And The City Was A Knockout - Loved It!

 What a delight!  The Sex and the City movie didn't disappoint.  If you loved Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda on TV you're going to love them on the big screen.

I cried, I laughed and in almost every scene these gals landed on one of my emotional hot spots.  It makes you realize what a gift it is to have a special friend who loves you.  Someone who is there to help pick up the pieces when you get hit with one of life's unexpected curve balls. 

Yes, I know it's only a movie, but the experiences portrayed are very relatable to our own lives.  Not only for the women but for the men too.

Loved Samantha, she did all of us Real Cougars proud. I think by the end of this picture she made peace with who she is and what it takes to makes her happy. And, that realiziation really is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. 

So, take your girlfriends, take your significant other, take your kleenex and go see this movie.

  

Shades - Much More Than A Fashion Statement

Cheap sunglasses may cost you less, but are they just as likely to protect against the effects of harmful UV rays as expensive sunglasses?

There is no government regulations for the classification of sunglasses.  That means a manufacturer can misrepresent how much protection their sunglasses offer; and, unfortunately, consumers sometimes assume all sunglasses have protection if they are darker.

Dr. Stephen Trokel, an ophthalmologist at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center, advises that we buy sunglasses from reputable companies to ensure that they block both UVA and UVB rays. Wraparound sunglasses and those with large temples are a good idea for side protection.

Sunglasses are not just a fashion statement; their lenses block harmful UV rays that, in severe cases, can cause permanent damage to the eyes in the form of cataracts, pterygium and possibly retinal degeneration.

Here are two things you should be aware of:

•  If you have blue or green eyes, wear darker shades
•  If you wear contacts use sunglasses to keep them from drying out

So, go enjoy the summer sun but always remember to protect one of your most important assets - your eyes.
