WELL; Vital Signs | Patterns: Caffeine Alters Estrogen Levels in Women
Your daily dose of caffeine may tinker with more than just your energy levels. A new study of women ages 18 to 44 found that drinking coffee and other caffeinated beverages can alter levels of estrogen. But the impact varies by race.

VITAL SIGNS; Patterns: Endorphins That Say 'Have Another Round'
Drinking alcohol causes a pleasant feeling because it releases endorphins, the brain's natural opioids. But a new study has found that problem drinkers differ from social drinkers in the way alcohol affects one part of the brain. The report appeared Wednesday in Science Translational Medicine. Researchers performed PET imaging on 13 heavy drinkers
VITAL SIGNS; Patterns: Trace Elements and Pancreatic Cancer Risk

VITAL SIGNS; Patterns: Less Salt Isn't Always Better for the Heart
For years, experts have believed that lowering sodium consumption reduces the risk of heart disease. Now a large new study suggests that it may not be so simple. The scientists studied an international group of 28,880 men and women over age 55 at high risk for heart disease. They estimated salt intake by testing urine and followed the group for
VITAL SIGNS; Patterns: Heart Study Suggests Place Matters
In the so-called stroke belt in the Southeast, cardiovascular disease rates are much higher than in the rest of the country. Scientists generally believe that is because people in the region have higher rates of such risk factors as smoking, obesity and diabetes. Now a large study, published in the November issue of PLoS One, suggests that there
VITAL SIGNS; Patterns: 'Freshman 15' Is a Myth, a Study Suggests
Everyone knows that college freshmen typically gain 15 pounds in their first year of college: the notorious ''freshman 15.'' But what everyone ''knows'' may be a myth. According to a new study, freshmen actually gain an average of 2.5 to 3.5 pounds, and the weight gain has little to do with college attendance. Researchers at the Ohio State
VITAL SIGNS; Patterns: Study Suggests Obesity Hinders Flu Vaccine
A new study suggests that overweight people benefit less from the flu vaccine than those of normal weight, and the heavier they are, the lower their immune response to the shot over time. Researchers studied 74 people given the combination vaccine against three strains of flu in the 2009-10 season, measuring their antibody response one month after
