Huffington Post: The Psychology Of Materialism, And Why It's Making You Unhappy

Posted: 15 Dec 2013 07:00 AM PST

More money, more problems? It might just be true. Americans today, compared to 55 years ago, own twice as many cars and eat out twice as much per person, but we don't seem to be any happier because of it. Rather than rising levels of well-being, we've seen mounting credit card debt and increasing numbers of self-storage facilities to house the things we compulsively buy.

The holidays in particular have become a time when consumer culture comes out in full force. Black Friday, the annual post-Thanksgiving discount shopping spree, results each year in multiple deaths and injuries of consumers trampled by crowds in stores and shopping malls.

In a poignant, viral Huffington Post blog last month, "If You Shop On Thanksgiving, You're Part Of The Problem," writer Matt Walsh cast a harsh light on what the holiday shopping frenzy really says about our culture:

Huffington Post: Unreal Eats: How Do 'Healthy' Kids' Foods Measure Up?

Posted: 15 Dec 2013 07:00 AM PST

Unreal Eats is Healthy Living's original video series, where we go behind calorie counts and health claims to examine what's really in the processed foods that scream loudest in our food environment.

As if parents weren't already inundated with unsolicited health advice for their kids! The recent explosion in healthy alternatives to classic kids' meals (think: organic mac & cheese or all-natural fruit snacks) can be confusing for everyone. Are the so-called healthier items actually any better for you?

For the latest Unreal Eats, we pitted kids' classics and their healthier versions to see who fared better. And while, no, the combination of pasta and cheese will never be a nutritious complete meal, we found that the healthier items actually did fare better. Watch the video above to learn more.

Huffington Post: People Seek Smoking Cessation Information When Celebrities Are Diagnosed With Cigarette-Caused Cancer

Posted: 15 Dec 2013 07:01 AM PST

When a celebrity is diagnosed with a smoking-related cancer, interest in quitting smoking among the general public increases, according to a new study.

A team of researchers found that when Brazil President Lula da Silva was diagnosed in 2011 with laryngeal cancer, which he said was caused by smoking, online search activity regarding quitting smoking and media coverage on quitting smoking increased in the days after. Plus, this interest in smoking cessation remained higher than normal even a month after his diagnosis was announced.

"This study is the first to demonstrate that celebrity diagnoses can prompt the public to engage in behaviors that prevent cancer," study researcher Seth M. Noar, a health communication professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, said in a statement. "Harnessing this finding will save far more lives than screening alone."
