The Drink That Increases Sleep Time @ PositiveMed
"Tart Cherry Juice
New research presented at the 2014 Experimental Biology meeting showed that sipping on cherry juice can help you sleep 90 minutes more each night. The researchers tested 7 adults with insomnia, the average age was 68, and had them drink 8 ounces of Montmorency tart cherry juice twice a day for 2 weeks, then none for 2 weeks, followed by 2 weeks of a placebo beverage. When the results were compared, it was found that the 2 weeks of cherry juice resulted in 84 more minutes of sleep each night.
Tart cherries are a great natural source of melatonin, the hormone that regulates the sleep-wake cycle. There have been several studies that suggest tart cherries for better sleep. Frank L. Greenway, director of the outpatient research clinic at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center at LSU, says, “Proanthocyanidins, or the ruby red pigments in tart cherry juice, contain an enzyme that reduces inflammation and decreases the breakdown of tryptophan, letting it go to work longer in your body.”"

Are You at Risk for Sudden Death?Being young and fit may not protect you from a heart attack
It says men, but women need to be aware as well.
"Heart attacks aren't just for older, overweight men with high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Doctors are seeing patients in their 40s come in with heart disease due to self-inflicted risk factors, according to Ilan Wittstein, M.D., an assistant professor at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and its Heart Institute. Middle-aged men need to be on guard. Even if you work out and eat healthy, you could still be at risk.
Beware of Risk Factors
"In half of the cases of heart attacks, the heart attack is the first time the patient finds out about heart disease," says Richard A. Stein, director of preventive cardiology at Beth Israel Medical Center and spokesperson for the American Heart Association. More than 60 percent of heart attacks have to do with simple lifestyle issues, such as diet, exercise and cigarette smoking, and easy to detect and treat medical issues such as high blood pressure and high cholesterol. "Men need to know about the risk factors that predict the majority of heart disease cases," Stein says. "
