Sex Problems in Men Linked to High BPA Levels
In our workplaces, we may have more to worry about than just our deadlines, especially if you work around chemicals. It has been found that workers who are exposed to very high levels of the chemical bisphenol A (BPA) were four to seven times more likely to report sexual function difficulties than were the workers with no occupational exposure to BPA. Earlier studies have linked exposure to BPA to reproduction problems in animals, however, this is the first five-year study to do so in humans. There is now evidence that BPA has harmful effects on the male reproductive system.

Regular Ibuprofen Use May Lower Risk for Parkinson's
Routinely taking ibuprofen, a common over-the-counter pain reliever, may reduce the risk of developing Parkinson's disease. According to Harvard University research, adults who used three or more tablets of ibuprofen weekly cut their risk of developing the disease by about 27 percent compared to those who did not. The study appears in the journal Neurology. The study findings showed no indication that other pain medications such as aspirin and acetaminophen were associated with a decreased risk of developing Parkinson's.
