Health Literacy

It's time to highlight some of the best new WisdomCards we added to our
collection last week. Our WisdomCards are hand-crafted, doctor-approved
research summaries to help you find the health information you're
after. Here's a sampling of what our hardworking Guides created last week:

• Swine flu is on everyone's mind.  See what our Guide Amy M. found out when an interested reader contacted OrganizedWisdom wanting to know if the 1918 flu pandemic was the same as the 2009 swine flu.  And what about your pets, can they contract swine flu?  See Guide Jillian's WisdomCard to find out, then check out our new swine flu health center!

• Summer is travel season.  If you have rheumatoid arthritis, you may need some extra tips to make your life easier.  See what Jillian found out about how to travel with rheumatoid arthritis.

• Living with angina?  Guide Robbin has a WisdomCard for you on exercise to prevent angina.  If you have high cholesterol, she also has a WisdomCard on a hypercholesterolemia diet.

• Speaking of diets for your health, we've added many new WisdomCards on low fat and heart healthy diets!  For just a sampling, check out Guide Susan's WisdomCards on low fat cookie recipes and low fat apple recipes, Guide Melinda's WisdomCards on low fat chicken recipes and low fat appetizers, Guide Tina's WisdomCard on low fat mahi mahi recipes, Guide Amy M.'s heart healthy barbeque salmon recipes and heart healthy fast food alternatives, and Guide Judy's heart healthy bread machine recipes. These should get you nice and hungry and ready to explore all the additional healthy recipe WisdomCards we have for you!
