BUENOS AIRES, Nov 23 2005 (IPS) – How many childhood respiratory problems are related to the fuel used in homes for cooking? How many cases of diarrhoea are the result of drinking contaminated water?

BLANTYRE, Feb 9 2006 (IPS) – When police announced recently that they had detained a man in the northern town of Karonga for allegedly killing his wife after she refused him sex, there were hopes that the arrest would send a stern warning to other husbands with violent inclinations.
Apparently, it didn t.
Within a week of the Karonga murder, two other husbands attempted to kill their wives: one by chopping off both arms of the spouse, the other by petrol-bombing his wife.
Shortly after that, a woman and her one-month-old baby were found in a maize patch. They had allegedly been killed and mutilated by the woman s husband, before he attempted to hang himself.
Police reports indicate that last month alone, five women died at the hands of thei…

BOLOGNA, Apr 15 2006 (IPS) – The Italian scientist Morando Soffritti has revived the debate about the safety of aspartame, an artificial sweetener used in many popular products, including diet softdrinks made by Coca-Cola and Pepsi Co. After studying 1,800 rats over eight years, his research team concluded that aspartame could have carcinogenic effects.
The results, first released in July 2005 and published in March in the U.S. Department of Health s journal, Environmental Health Perspectives , contradict other studies financed by the company that created the sweetner, G.D. Searle Company, which assures aspartame poses no risks to human health.
For the past 25 years, the product has been authorised by the U.S. Food and Drug Administr…
