Stability: Stability should be your number-one concern when taking a long road trip. Many people stick pillows behind their backs for lumbar support, but the main goal is to always have your spine straight. Sit with the seat fully contacting your back; allow the structure of the seat to do its job in supporting your spine. Body Positioning: Maintain proper posture by not leaning one way or the other in the seat. According to the National Highway and Trafc Safety Authority, a drivers hands should both be placed on the outside of the steering wheel on opposite sides. Long recommends the 9 and 3 hand position. Having proper position in the car is also relative to the pedals -- if youre too close youre cramped. If youre too far away, youll end up slouching down to reach them. Sit close enough to the wheel so theres a slight bend at your elbows and keep your arms relaxed. Take Frequent Pit Stops: For longer-distance road adventures, take frequent pit stops in order to stretch your legs and improve the blood ow in your body. To prevent a sore lower back experienced after driving, focus on core stability and strength exercises. Long suggests planks, leg lifts and crunches on an exercise ball to strengthen your core. To nd more information about Long, check out www.porsche.com/ usa.
about all the driving they will be doing during the fall? You cant teen-proof your neighborhood, but you can talk to your teen about safe driving before they head to school. Teens Drive Smart, a teen driver safety initiative from Bridgestone Americas, the parent company to Bridgestone Retail Operations, LLC, which owns and operates Firestone Complete Auto Care, has tips and resources for parents to help start a conversation with their teens about smart driving. Visit www. TeensDriveSmart.com for more information. Remember, not only can taking these small steps keep your vehicle running newer, longer, but they can also help keep you and your family safe on the road.
In May 2011, a 20-year-old video gamer from England died when a blood clot formed in his leg and moved to his lungs. The man often remained in the same position playing video games for 12 hours straight.
BIG RAPIDS After her son committed suicide in March 2010, Michelle Lewis wanted to do something to harness the communitys support and help prevent other families from experiencing the pain that she has. Lewis, from Stanwood, is one of the organizers behind Big Rapids rst Out of the Darkness Suicide Prevention Walk, which will take place at 9 a.m. on Saturday in Northend Riverside Park. Having raised $1,700 so far for the event, Lewis said she hopes to reach $5,000 total to benet the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Across the country, more than 200 communities host their own Out of the Darkness walks every year. The walk is to raise awareness and money for educational materials in schools and research, Lewis said. More than 100 people are expected to join the walk, which will follow a one-and-a-half mile route along the Riverwalk. Those who donate at least $150 will receive a free T-shirt from the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. Bernies Place will provide a free breakfast for participants before the walk, and lunch will be served after as well. Participants also can enter a rafe to win prizes. The death of Lewis son, Gordon Dolley, is a big motivator behind the event. Dolley was 15 and a freshman at Morley Stanwood High School where he was bullied by students before his death. Since Dolleys suicide, the school formed an AntiBullying Committee to help address the issue of bully prevention. Theres hope. Theres always a bigger picture, and thats why we started this to help other families so they dont have to go through
Movement is essential for proper blood ow, said Anil Hingorani, MD, a member of the Society for Vascular Surgery. Sitting in the same position for long periods of time -- whether playing video games or cramped in a car or on an airplane -- can result in pooling of the blood in the veins. Blood clots known as deep vein thromboses (DVT) can form.
The 2011 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention statistics reveal that 300,000 to 600,000 Americans die each year from blood clots in the lungs. In 2003, 39-year-old NBC News reporter David Bloom died when a blood clot in his leg traveled to his lungs. The clot formed after weeks of driving around Baghdad in a cramped military tank.
Stand up and stretch, advises Dr. Hingorani. Walk around. Raise and lower your heels and toes. Tighten and release your leg muscles. This will help promote blood ow.
DVTs usually occur in persons who are sick and have had long hospital stays. The risk factors for DVTs include the following: * obesity * a history of heart attacks * strokes * congestive heart failure * inammatory bowel disease
Women who are pregnant, nursing or taking birth control pills are also at increased risk for DVTs. Half of DVT patients do not experience the warning signs, which include: * swelling

* tenderness
* leg pain
* a sensation of warmth
forgetful and listless. If untreated, the condition leads to hard-to-treat headaches, severe depression and poor performance at work or school. The long-term consequences of untreated sleep apnea are signicant as well. The sleeping condition may cause or worsen heart disease, heart arrhythmias, heart failure, high blood pressure and strokes. Furthermore, research shows a connection between shift work and sleep apnea. Shift work is the opposite of a nine-to-ve schedule, often consisting of late-night or early-morning hours. Since shift work interrupts an already-damaged sleep cycle, it only compounds existing apnea side effects. The number of apneic episodes per night can increase signicantly, and sleep-deprivation symptoms will only worsen. Its estimated that up to one-third of shift workers experience side effects severe enough to diagnose them with shift work disorder. Due to their interrupted sleep schedule, shift work disorder causes sufferers to struggle to stay awake, and to fall asleep. Imbalanced biological clocks prevent workers from falling asleep when they actually have time, and they also disrupt digestive systems. These added complications make shift work and
sleep apnea the Molotov cocktail of sleep deprivation. For more information on obstructive sleep apnea or shift work disorder, visit www.sleepapnea.org. ADULT STEM CELL RESEARCH IS GROWING POSSIBILITIES (NewsUSA) - Through research labs and clinical trials across the country, adult stem cells are emerging to offer a variety of medical solutions. While some applaud the shift away from embryonic stem cells, others are still uncertain about the real applicability of adult stem cell research. Despite the array of misconceptions and caution surrounding regenerative medicine as a whole, shocking and promising discoveries are being made about cell therapies. One such discovery is the ability to extract adult stem cells from body fat, cryogenically preserve them in a stem cell bank to capture your current cell age and use them for personal treatment later in life. This technology, offered exclusively by American CryoStem, was developed in response to the increasing applications of adult stem cells globally. The Wake Forest Institute of Regenerative Medicine is growing entire organs in petri dishes using a patients own stem cells. Wake Forest doctor Anthony Atala has
Ultrasound tests can detect blood clots. Treatment options typically use anticoagulant medication.
Another technique that we use is to grow patients cells and place them on 3D biodegradable molds to create entire complex organs. After eight weeks of incubation and growth, the new organ can be transplanted, explains Atala.
For additional information about DVTs or other vascular health conditions, visit www.VascularWeb. org. OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA WILL RUIN YOUR NIGHT
In Colorado, a leading spine surgeon successfully performed a lumbar disc procedure using adult stem cells to reverse the disc degeneration and regrow disc cartilage. The preclinical trial offers an alternative to articial disc replacement and spinal fusion surgeries for sufferers of debilitating back pain.
(NewsUSA) - Do you have trouble sleeping through the night? Do you wake up feeling unrested and consistently drowsy?
Constant daytime drowsiness is one of the leading symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), the most common type of sleep apnea according to the American Sleep Apnea Association. Sleep apnea is a condition occurring when a persons breathing pauses or decreases during the night due to blocked airways. Extreme snoring and sudden gasps are other common symptoms.
Researchers are also exploring adult stem cell treatments to improve cardiac function after a heart attack. A hospital in Wales cured blindness from varying levels of cornea damage; doctors in Europe saved a mans life by growing him a new windpipe; doctors in Cincinnati replaced a childs missing cheekbones -- all using personal adult stem cells.
Although sleep apnea isnt particularly devastating or dangerous, it has adverse effects on ones life and responsibilities. Someone suffering from OSA will often feel impatient, irritable,
