FORT WORTH, TX, November 16, 2010 (Press-News.org) Chef Point Cafe is exceedingly thankful to everybody who has helped make it such a tremendous success. Franson and Paula Nwaeze, proprietors of the five-star gourmet restaurant in a gas station, recognize the importance of helping others in their time of need, especially during the Thanksgiving season.
As an expression of gratitude to their diners and in recognition of Thanksgiving, the Nwaezes are providing diners the opportunity to help the less fortunate, too. Chef Point will be collecting canned goods and non-perishable food items during November and donating it to the Community Enrichment Center in North Richland Hills. Anyone bringing five canned goods or non-perishable will receive a $3 discount on dinner, courtesy of Chef Point Cafe.
"At this time of Thanksgiving, I know the food banks run short on food," Chef Franson said. "This is our way of helping those less fortunate."
"I hope we collect enough canned goods to fill an 18-wheeler," Paula Nwaeze said.

2010-11-15
The proportion of adult smokers dramatically decreased during the past three decades in at least one metropolitan area — with more quitting and fewer picking up the habit, according to research presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2010.
The Minnesota Heart Survey, a population-based, serial cross-sectional study of trends in cardiovascular risk factors, included between 3,000 and 6,000 participants in each of its six surveys.

Less salt in teenagers' diet may improve heart health in adulthood
2010-11-15
Eating smaller amounts of salt each day as a teenager could reduce high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke in adulthood, according to research presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2010.
Conducting a sophisticated computer modeling analysis, researchers projected the nationwide health effects of a 3-gram reduction in dietary salt from processed foods consumed by adolescent boys and girls.
Teenagers eat more salt each day — more than 9 grams (3,800 milligrams of sodium) — than any other age group, researchers said. The American Heart ...

However, bypass patients with left ventricular dysfunction who were moderate to heavy drinkers (more than six drinks daily) were twice as likely to have subsequent cardiovascular deaths compared to non-drinkers.
"The benefit of light amounts ...

"While the focus at the time of bereavement is naturally directed toward the deceased person, the health and welfare of bereaved survivors should ...
Vitamin D deficiency does not increase stroke risk among blacks
2010-11-15
While vitamin D deficiency is associated with fatal stroke among whites, it is not linked to more stroke deaths among blacks, according to research presented at the American Heart Association's Scientific Sessions 2010.
Analyzing the health records of a nationally representative group of 7,981 black and white adults, researchers found that whites with deficient vitamin D levels had a doubled risk of dying from a stroke compared to whites with higher vitamin D levels.
In contrast, researchers found no relationship between fatal strokes and vitamin D deficiency among blacks, ...
