Here are some recent studies that you may find interesting. I have been surprised how little response I have had on the Blogs I have been doing on the latest research on anti-aging, Resveratrol and the effects we now know it has on stopping the diseases of aging.
I guess no one is interested in staying young and healthy until they get sick. Perhaps you are all just playing and enjoying the summer. So, I will to.

Sun Exposure Saves Ten Times as Many Lives Via Vitamin D than Die From Skin Cancer ...
The number of lives saved by people doubling their sun exposure might be 10 times higher than the number of fatal skin cancers that would result, according to a study conducted by researchers at the Institute for Cancer Research in Oslo, Norway, and published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Exposure to the ultraviolet radiation from sunlight increases the risk of developing skin cancer, but also increases the body's production of vitamin D. The connection between vitamin D and bone health is well-known, and recent research suggests that a higher vitamin D intake might also provide protection against certain cancers, diabetes and multiple sclerosis. Vitamin D is also believed to help with the proper functioning of the immune system.

New Study Confirms Periodontal Disease Linked To Heart Disease...
A newly published study in the Journal of Periodontology confirms recent findings that people with periodontal disease are at a greater risk of systemic diseases such as cardiovascular. Researchers found diseased gums released significantly higher levels of bacterial pro-inflammatory components, such as endotoxins, into the bloodstream in patients with severe periodontal disease compared to healthy patients. As a result, these harmful bacterial components in the blood could travel to other organs in the body, such as the heart, and cause harm.
