Estrogen dominance can be a major health hazard for women—and men—over the age of 40.

You don't have to visit many powder rooms before you find a bottle of the stuff.

Dear Dr. Cutler,

I am a 52-year-old woman in good health except for one problem. From blood tests at my recent yearly checkup, my doctor discovered I have elevated triglycerides and “bad” LDL cholesterol levels, as well as low levels of HDL cholesterol. She indicated that I should try eating a low-fat diet, but if the levels haven’t improved in six months, I’ll need to go on cholesterol-lowering medication, which scares me. Can you suggest a natural way to fight this problem?

The FDA is finally taking a stand on something. It’s just too bad it’s on package design and not the dangerous drugs inside them or deceptive drug company marketing practices that get you to grab them in the first place!

It doesn't happen every night. Mostly when I'm feeling worn out, or if it's been an especially long day.

It starts as a little tingle -- but within a few minutes, my legs are so twitchy and jumpy that rest and relaxation becomes just about impossible.

Dear Pharmacist,

I just became a pharmacist and started reading your syndicated column. Your emphasis is usually centered around the benefits of vitamins, minerals or alternative treatments, as compared to prescription medications. I take offense sometimes because I think you should recommend more of our gold standard pharmaceuticals, which are FDA approved, unlike nutritional supplements.

The Food and Drug Administration appears to be close to approving the first genetically engineered animal for human consumption: salmon with cross species genes and an "always on" hormone switch that enable them to grow twice as fast.

If you've recently received a free sample pack of Coumadin from your doctor, DO NOT USE IT!

You know that pathetic honking sound of forced gaiety that one of those paper party whistles makes? I swear that’s what I heard when the FDA’s recent news release, on the use of antibiotics in livestock, crossed my desk.

The last thing you'd expect from a blood pressure med is an increased cardiovascular risk--yet that's what may be happening with one common drug.
