Capsule Comments
with Ernie Miatello
As men age, the prostate becomes a concem.
Because this troublesome gland is so near the
urinary tract, these symptoms might signify a
prostate problem: a) frequent or difficult umiation; b) urgent
urination during the day; c) getting up frequently at night to uri-
nate; d) dribbling for several minutes after urinating.
Concerned? Check with your doctor.
Putting eye drops in children's eyes can be difficult. One way
that works is to have your child lie down with eyes closed.
Instill the appropriate number of drops in the comer of the eye
near the nose. Your child will automatically blink which will
draw the drops into the eye. It's called the "closed eye
method."
We've been hearing a lot about the benefits of tomatoes and
tomato products lately. Tomatoes contain lycopene which is
aid to have a protective effect against cancers of the lung,
breast, prostate and colon. Look for products containing toma-
to extract or concentrate. These contain whole tomatoes con-
taining a whole range of phytochemicais as well as lycopene.
Don Qualn, an herbal product, contains chemicals that have
beneficial effects on menstrual cramping. Although good stud-
ies have not be'n done to provide efficacy, we can say that
normal doses don't pose any appreciable health risk.
