In the WebMD.com article, Fruits, Leafy Greens Are Good for the Eyes, author Bill Hendrick cites research reviews from University of Georgia scientists. People have long understood that carrots are good for the eyes, but, according to this report, so are leafy greens and colored fruits.

The article Texting While Driving Raises Crash Risk Sixfold is about actual virtual driving simulator testing to study the dangers of texting while driving. In my opinion, this is a problem that is becoming epidemic. I have been in the car with a texting driver and have said (or actually yelled), “Don’t do that while you are driving!” This was in the early days of texting before the issue was front and center, but I could clearly see that the driver was not paying attention to his driving.
On Shopping and Product Reviews, an unnamed writer penned the article, What Are Your Options on a Good Mattress? My first inclination is to giggle at the title and the jokes I could make about your options “on a good mattress” (which sounds like the article is about the activities you could participate in on a good mattress).
I came across the blog Actelion Sleep Drug Causes Safety Concern. According to the blog, the insomnia drug Almorexant made by Actelion is not yet safe.
Late-stage trials showed safety concerns that were unspecified. Although this drug was supposed to be another alternative for those who cannot sleep, it needs more research and data before it can be deemed safe.
I found this article on Bedzine.com, Dream Facts, to be very interesting. The article just lists facts about dreams, many of which I had never heard of before.

In the post, Beds With Mattress Review Sites, the author points out that you should do your homework and find out what options are available to you before you go mattress shopping. The writer points out that spring mattresses are the old standard by which everything else is compared. While the comparisons to the standard spring mattresses are still the norm, the specialty mattress market is booming as more people look into air beds, memory foam mattresses, all natural latex mattresses, foam mattresses, etc.
I stumbled across this article about Group Health and the innovative way they can allow their patients to test for sleep apnea in their own home. This is a great idea for those who do not want to test at an inpatient sleep clinic. Testing at home is less expensive and more convenient. It will also allow people to sleep more naturally and normally than they would at an inpatient clinic.
At Healthy Foundations, we already know that a memory foam mattress provides enjoyable sleep. It seems that more and more people are finding this out and learning what comfortable, enjoyable sleep is all about.
Here’s another article explaining why a memory foam mattress will make you enjoy your sleep. Some of the things the article points out are:

A memory foam mattress can help ease your back pain. This is how I originally discovered memory foam over 15 years ago. It helped ease the back pain I had due to an injury, and I started introducing it to family and friends. The next thing you know, I had a new career and the rest, as they say, is history.
