NORCROSS, GA, January 23, 2013 (Press-News.org) Getting sick is just not an option these days. In this economy, staying healthy can mean the difference between financial breathing room vs. woes. Many companies offer sick time to employees, but depending on your current work status, this may or may not be sufficient. In addition, workers who drop below full-time status run the risk of losing their benefits altogether. Luckily there are individual health plans in Georgia that can keep you covered.
Every day you are sick may cost you a day's worth of wages. For the vast majority of Americans, making ends meet is a blessing. People simply cannot afford to be sick, and that is why the Georgia health insurance company, McCart, is offering tips for staying healthy this season. There are a number of ways people can avoid getting sick, and the rewards of doing so are truly worth it. The first step is having excellent individual health insurance so that you can afford to have your health monitored by medical professionals.
Most Georgia individual health insurance plans do not completely cover the cost of medical expenses. While health insurance significantly reduces out of pocket costs, co-payments and bills will still have to be paid. Thus, staying healthy is more important than most people realize. It is not merely a lifestyle choice; it is economically advantageous. McCart recommends wearing proper apparel. Not dressing for the weather is a key reason why many people get sick in the first place. Another cardinal rule is remembering to always wash your hands. One related tip that most people are unaware of is to not dry your hands with a cloth towel. These contain germs that can quickly spread; this is why public restrooms contain paper towels and automated hand dryers. The best way to keep your immunity up during the cold season is by eating healthy and getting adequate sleep.
Take it from a leading expert in Individual health insurance in Georgia; following these simple tips can go a long way towards keeping you out of harm's way. The common cold can quickly lead to worse infections; if you are beginning to feel ill, McCart urges you to call your doctor. Treating an illness quickly is the best way to keep it at bay.

Severe abuse at home linked to dating violence
2013-01-22
Young urban black women who are exposed to severe abuse within their families are much more likely to be victims of dating violence, according to a study led by a Michigan State University researcher.
Angie Kennedy said efforts to prevent dating violence should include discussion of what might be going on in the victim's home.
"There is a lot of focus on trying to prevent dating violence for high school students, which is an important goal," said Kennedy, MSU associate professor of social work. "But if you're sitting in a group talking about conflict with your dating ...
A new type of volcanic eruption
2013-01-22
Scientists based in the UK and New Zealand have described a "new" type of volcanic eruption.
Volcanic eruptions are commonly categorised as either explosive or effusive. But now, in research published this month in Nature Geoscience, researchers at Victoria University, Wellington and the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton have uncovered a previously undocumented type of eruption in underwater volcanoes – by looking at tiny original bubble spaces trapped in volcanic rock.
Inside volcanoes, gases are dissolved in the molten magma as a function of the very high ...
Blood-based biomarkers may lead to earlier diagnosis of Parkinson's disease
2013-01-22
Amsterdam, NL, 20 January 2013 – Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurological condition. At present, it is usually diagnosed only when motor features are present. Hence, there is a need to develop objective and measurable biomarkers to improve PD diagnostics during its earlier stage, prior to its motor onset. In this pilot study, researchers identified and tested the first blood-based circulating microRNA (miRNA) biomarkers for PD. Their results are published in the latest issue of Journal of Parkinson's Disease.
PD is the second most common neurodegenerative ...

Protein structure: Immune system foiled by a hairpin
2013-01-22
The innate immune system detects invasive pathogens and activates defense mechanisms to eliminate them. Pathogens, however, employ a variety of tricks to block this process. A new study led by Karl-Peter Hopfner of Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet (LMU) in Munich shows how the measles virus thwarts the system, by means of a simple hairpin-like structure.
The innate immune system is the body's first line of defense against invasive pathogens and noxious chemicals. Essentially the system consists of an array of receptors that recognize particular molecular conformations ...
