“Even when they’re very tiny, they have an intact thirst reflex or a drive to drink,” Dr. Jennifer Anders, a pediatric emergency physician at the center, told Reuters Health. “When they have that thirst and they want to drink, the fluid they need to drink more of is their breast milk or formula.”

Because babies’ kidneys aren’t yet mature, giving them too much water causes their bodies to release sodium along with excess water, Anders said. Losing sodium can affect brain activity, so early symptoms of water intoxication can include irritability, drowsiness and other mental changes. Other symptoms include low body temperature (generally 97 degrees or less), puffiness or swelling in the face, and seizures.

“It’s a sneaky kind of a condition,” Anders said. Early symptoms are subtle, so seizures may be the first symptom a parent notices. But if a child gets prompt medical attention, the seizures will probably not have lasting consequences, she added.

Water as a beverage should be completely off limits to babies six months old and younger, Anders and her colleagues say. Parents should also avoid using over-diluted formula, or pediatric drinks containing electrolytes.

Anders said it may be appropriate in some cases to give older infants a small amount of water; for example to help with constipation or in very hot weather, but parents should always check with their pediatrician before doing so, and should only give the baby an ounce or two of water at a time.

If a parent thinks their child may have water intoxication, or if an infant as a seizure, they should seek medical attention immediately, she advised.

At this rate, scientists will have to come up with a better description for the tomato than mere ’superfood’.

While it has long been credited with cutting cholesterol and preventing some cancers, the fruit now appears to have two more healthgiving benefits.

Protection against sunburn and helping keep the skin looking youthful are the latest pluses, a study has found.

Professor Mark Birch-Machin said tomatoes could provide a cheap and easy way of improving health.

“I went into the study as a sceptic,” he added. “But I was quite surprised with the significance of the findings.”

Researchers at Manchester and Newcastle universities recommend two tomato-based meals a day for optimum health.

Possible menus include a glass of tomato juice with breakfast and a salad later or tomato soup for lunch and pasta with a tomato sauce for dinner.

To test the fruit’s ability to protect the skin, ten volunteers were asked to eat five tablespoons of tomato paste mixed with olive oil every day for three months.

Another ten had a daily dose of olive oil – minus the tomato paste.

Tests using ultra-violet lamps showed the tomato-eaters were a third better protected against sunburn at the end of the study than at the start, the British Society for Investigative Dermatology’s annual conference heard.

Other tests suggested the tomato-based diet had boosted production of collagen, the protein that keeps skin supple.

If that were not enough, the fruit also protects our mitochondria – the elements of cells which turn the food we eat into energy.

Professor Birch-Machin, of Newcastle University, said: “Being kind to our mitochondria is likely to contribute to improved skin health, which in turn may have an anti-ageing effect.”

The researchers stressed, however, that their findings were not an excuse to throw away the suncream. Professor Lesley Rhodes, a Manchester University dermatologist, said: “People should not think tomatoes in any way can replace suncreams but they may be a good additive.

“If you can improve your protection through your diet then over several years this may have a significant effect.”

She added: “These weren’t huge amounts we were feeding the group. It was the sort of quantity you could easily manage by eating a lot of tomato-based meals.”

The fruit’s benefits are credited to lycopene, the pigment behind its distinctive red skin.

Lycopene, a powerful antioxidant capable of mopping up free radicals – the harmful molecules linked to cancer – is made easier for the body to absorb when tomatoes are cooked or processed.

On the other hand, tests scores were lower among preschoolers whose mothers had relatively high mercury levels in their blood during pregnancy. And mothers who regularly ate fish during pregnancy were more likely to have such mercury levels than non-fish-eaters were, the researchers report in the American Journal of Epidemiology.

The findings add to evidence that fish can be brain-food, but underscore the importance of choosing lower-mercury fish during pregnancy.

“Recommendations for fish consumption during pregnancy should take into account the nutritional benefits of fish as well as the potential harms from mercury exposure,” write the researchers, led by Dr. Emily Oken of Harvard Medical School in Boston.

Oily fish such as tuna, salmon and sardines contain omega-3 fatty acids, which are important in fetal and child brain development. The problem is that fatty fish are more likely to be contaminated with mercury, a metal that is toxic to brain cells, particularly in fetuses and young children.

Because of this, pregnant women are advised to avoid certain fish altogether: shark, swordfish, king mackerel and tilefish. These fish are particularly high in mercury because they eat other fish and are long-lived, over time accumulating mercury in their fat tissue.

Fish that are high in omega-3 but relatively lower in mercury include canned light tuna, which has less mercury than albacore tuna, and smaller oily fish like salmon. White-meat fish such as cod and haddock tend to be low in mercury, but have less omega-3 than fattier fish.

Currently, U.S. health officials recommend that pregnant women eat no more than 12 ounces, or roughly two servings, of fish per week.

Researchers at the

University of
Connecticut have revealed that eating broccoli can effectively
fight heart disease.

Broccoli has always been a rich source of antioxidants,
vitamins, and fiber that may protect against cancer. The new study
led by Dipak K. Das has found that it may benefit the heart.

The team conducted the research using rats where they gave
broccoli extract to lab rats for one month and examined its effects
on the rats’ heart muscle.

The findings revealed that broccoli-fed animals had improved
heart function and reduced heart muscle damage when deprived of
oxygen compared to control group that ate a regular diet.

Researchers believe that broccoli’s beneficial effects are
likely due to its high concentrations of certain substances that
seem to boost levels of a heart-protective protein called
thioredoxin.

The study is scheduled to be published in Jan 23 issue of ACS’
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.

Baking: Make shallow cuts along the top of the
fish. Put into a greased dish and cover with foil. Flavor with
herbs, lemon juice and olive oil. Bake at around 180 C and baste
frequently.

Shallow frying: Dry and flour the fish. Place a
small amount of oil or butter in the pan. Fry the fish at a medium
heat.

Grilling: Cut slashes into whole fish to help
the heat penetrate the flesh. Place fish on a preheated grill.
Baste frequently.

Steaming: Put fish in a steamer or on a plate
over a saucepan containing gently boiling water. Cover.

Coffee and tea lovers may have a slightly reduced risk of
developing kidney cancer, research hints.

The findings, based on an analysis of 13 previous studies,
suggest that coffee and tea may be protective against kidney
cancer, while milk, soda and juice seem to have no effect one way
or the other.

Across the studies, people who drank three or more cups of
coffee a day were 16 per cent less likely to develop kidney cancer
than those who averaged less than a cup per day. And those who
sipped just one cup of tea each day had a 15 per cent lower risk of
the disease than non-drinkers.

The findings appear in the International Journal of Cancer.

While the study cannot show that coffee or tea directly lower
kidney cancer risk, there are reasons why the beverages could be
beneficial, according to the researchers, led by Dr Jung Eun Lee of
Harvard Medical School in Boston.

For example, they explain, coffee and tea may increase the
body’s sensitivity to the blood-sugar-regulating hormone insulin,
and researchers suspect that insulin levels over time may affect
kidney cancer risk.

Coffee and tea also contain antioxidant compounds that may help
protect cells in the kidney from cancer-promoting damage, the
researchers point out.

For their study, the investigators combined the results of 13
long-term studies that included a total of 530,469 women and
244,483 men. Each study collected information on participants’
diets at the outset and then followed them for seven to 20
years.

Coffee and tea consumption were linked to a lower risk of kidney
cancer even when the researchers accounted for a number of factors
known to affect people’s risk of the disease – such as obesity,
smoking and high blood pressure.

“Our results suggest that coffee and tea consumption may be
associated with a modestly lower risk of (kidney) cancer, whereas
intakes of milk, juice and soda were not associated with risk,”
Lee’s team writes.

They say more studies are needed to understand why coffee and
tea might be protective against the disease.
