Happy new year...?
We're back! A happy new year to you all and here is the latest from the world of health.
With Bird Flu (HN51) claiming lives in Turkey, it is being reported that Avian Influenza is a step closer to our shores.
With Christmas and New Year, the drinking season, over it's a shame that research shows that liver cirrhosis deaths are soaring in Britain while falling in other European countries. This is blamed on the the drinking culture, which has seen a doubling of alcohol consumption since 1960.
According to a Cancer Research survey more than a quarter of obese and overweight people do not want to lose weight and many more are unaware of the benefits brought by a healthy lifestyle.
And finally pupils at a school for children with special educational needs are taking part in a study to see if taking fish oil supplements can improve behaviour.

I don't know what to think about this. It seemed quite a long way away in Thailand but Turkey is much closer. Would you still go to Turkey on holiday??
