		<description><![CDATA[Whenever I hear about new medical research, I always ask one question first: who funded it? Too often, reporters â€” even reporters for respected news sources like Reuters â€” don&#8217;t give us this essential information when they cover new studies. Take, for example, the flurry of recent news items with titles like &#8220;Morning sickness linked [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everyone seems to wonder why people are dying from the &#8220;swine flu&#8221; in Mexico, but not in other countries where the virus has been confirmed. (The one US death was a little boy visiting from Mexico with unidentified &#8220;underlying health issues.&#8221;) I have a theory. Or an idea. Or a question. It is common practice [...]]]></description>
