More and more women are doing it, but is it the right thing to do? Having children later in life has become quite common. Between 1991 and 2001, there was a 70 percent increase in the number of first birth to women between age 40 and 44. When is it too late to have children? Health Corner visits reproductive health expert Dr. Arthur Wisot in Los Angeles. Find out what he advises, and why the miracle of birth is an ageless joy. Dr. Lisa chats one-on-one with 50-year-old Kathleen Anderson, a mother of triplets at age 46. How does she do it? Where does she get the energy? Kathleen has some amazing insights you'll never forget. Is there a cure for diabetes on the horizon? Health Corner reports on a new therapy called islet transplants, which may offer millions of diabetics new hope. Care giving is wonderfully rewarding, but it can be isolating and lonely. Leeza Gibbons and Dr. Jamie Huysman share the story of a family coming to terms with the need to reach out and ask for support and guidance. Salmon is rich in Omega 3 fatty acids and other nutrients that may help reduce heart disease risk. John La Puma explains why you need more salmon in your diet, and prepares a ChefMDTM-approved recipe the heart healthy fish. Jill Repp explains why leading by example is the key to success when it comes to raising strong, confident girls. Walking is one of the best exercises around. Fitness guru Todd Whitthorne has some advice on choosing a pedometer. Plus, Florida Perry Smith on lush, plump, kissable lips-how to get them and how to keep them! All that, and so much more, on Health Corner.
