Headache disorders are often underestimated and under-recognised but they are one of the most common disorders of the nervous system.Headaches are painful and disabling, but not all of them are the same. The ones that happen if you’re suffering from migraine also cause several other unwanted symptoms.

Two reports have warned of an explosion in cancer deaths among women, with a toll, mainly from breast cancer, of some 5.5 million per year by 2030 — roughly the population of Denmark. This represented a near 60-percent increase in less than two decades, said an analysis conducted by the American Cancer Society (ACS), released Tuesday at the World Cancer Congress in Paris. As the global population grows and ages, the highest toll will be among women in poor and middle-income countries, it said, and much of it from cancers…

Many parents may be too busy to cook family dinners, but fighting the clock isn’t the only reason they turn to microwaveable frozen meals, a recent U.S. study suggests. Sure, 57 percent of parents cite lack of time as a reason for purchasing prepackaged processed meals, the study found.
