can apple vinegar ease arthritisVinegar – great with fish and chips, but can also help ease arthritis.

Well, that’s according to intrepid explorer Sir Ranulph Fiennes anyway, who swears by the stuff.

The 64-year-old adventurer got the first twinges of arthritis 20 years ago in his hands and hips, which he says was caused by too many expeditions spent sleeping in cold conditions.

valium on the increaseValium is not just for depressed housewives with bad hair and pearl necklaces.

In fact, the drug which helped tranquilised an entire nation of bored women during the 60s and 70s is making a comeback - as a cheap alternative to heroin.

According to DrugScope, there has been an increase in people using the pill known as ‘Mother’s Little Helper’ in 15 of the 20 UK towns surveyed.

Does Angelina Jolie have post-natal depression?It seems Angelina Jolie is human after all.

There was us thinking that the Lara Croft star was finding juggling motherhood, her career and various charity commitments a breeze.

Not so, say sources close to Angelina and Brad, who have revealed the reason we have not seen her much since the birth of the ridiculously-named twins Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon is because they are driving her potty.

They say that if you had dogs when you were growing up, you are more likely to snore when you are an adult.

Nicole Kidman danced off baby weightIt’s hard to believe sometimes that Nicole Kidman had a baby just a few weeks ago.

The Hollywood star gave birth to her daughter, Strawberry Sundae (or something like that) only last month, but has already shed her baby weight.

Some have claimed it to be a miracle. Even we started to think the whole pregnancy thing was a cunning trick, and that Nicole Kidman had simply adopted another child and stuffed a pillow down her top to make it look natural.

Jessica alba breast feedingWant to know how Jessica Alba lost her baby weight in eight weeks?

Bernie Mac hospitalised pneumonia 'dying' or 'not dying' but certainly not 'dead', apparentlyThere are some ‘are they-aren’t they?’ games that we prefer not to play, as they’re simply not as much fun as they should be.

Assuming that Angelina Jolie has had herself some kids is one version of the game we’re more than willing to play. Even when it’s as clearly wrong as some people can be. That’s almost fun, if you’re into that kind of thing.
