Certain acid blockers in a popular heartburn drug might actually increase the risk of premature death. As CBS2’s Dr. Max Gomez reports, there are three main types of heartburn drugs. Antacids, like Tums and Rolaids, are fine. So are older acid blockers called H-2 blockers, like Pepcid and Zantac.

Ashlee Simpson should just shut ... her ... mouth. Simpson, the little sister - image-wise, the evil princess - of Jessica Simpson, the good fairy, has found herself bobbing in boiling water for months. Some of her woes are warranted. Most are starting to take on a gladiatorial feel. Victim, meet lion. Lion, gnaw at will. First came Ashlee Simpson's appearance on a venerable Saturday Night Live episode. A miscued guide-vocal track - something used often and by far more respected singers than Simpson - created a debacle every bit the equal of Janet Jackson's infamous "wardrobe malfunction" at last...
