New research out of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN found that if you suffer from osteoporosis, some poses may cause bone injuries or further existing tissue and bone damage. It's important to remember that not all yoga poses are bad. Some of them can be modified to prevent these types of injuries. If something feels painful, stop.

How many times have you turned up the music while trying to work? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young medical minute. Music has a way of transporting our minds and for years it has been thought to increase productivity in the workplace. New research from University of Gävle, University of Central Lancashire, and Lancaster University found that this may not be as true as we thought. Scientists compared the productivity of people who worked in quiet conditions to those who worked with music playing. They found that music can significantly impair a person's ability to solve tasks and work creatively. So, if you need to have a productive day at work, you may want to rethink the headphones.
