Residents vs McDonald's | A group of residents in Adelaide have opened a new front against the fast food giant. They’re trying to stop a McDonald’s restaurant opening opposite a school, arguing it will raise childhood obesity rates in the area.

Testing beneficial side effects of drugs | At least half of all Americans take at least one prescription drug. There are unexpected benefits to taking some medications. People suffering from schizophrenia have a lower incidence of certain cancers than the general population. This was unexpected. People with schizophrenia smoke three times more than the general population but lung cancer, for example, is not three times as prevalent. Does genetic makeup play a role? Does regular use of anti-psychotic drugs lead to a reduction in cancer? To test the idea, Nirmani Wijenayake is testing anti-psychotic drugs on the cell lines of patients with a debilitating brain cancer. It has also been found the cholesterol lowering drugs statins also have beneficial side effects. Finding favourable side effects for drugs already approved for use saves the exhaustive, expensive and risky process of bringing new drugs onto the market. | 18.5.12 | Kostenlos | In iTunes ansehen |

Urban planners are not known for taking a close interest in population health factors when approving developments. But there is a case in Adelaide—involving a McDonald's development—that is attracting interest because the long-term health concerns of local residents have been taken seriously. | 17.5.12 | Kostenlos | In iTunes ansehen |

Healthy food in remote indigenous communities | Last week on RN Breakfast we heard from the Queensland president of the Australian Medical Association about his concerns that the life expectancy gap between indigenous and non indigenous Australians will widen. Dr Richard Kidd was concerned about the ongoing challenges for remote communities to access affordable healthy food.
