Even Carnivore Predators Eat Better Than Humans
Until now scientists have assumed that predators can only focus on obtaining sufficient calories in their diets. This is the first research to show that predators also select food on the basis of its nutritional value. Biologists have previously assumed that predators cannot afford to be fussy and that they are simply focused on getting the right quantity of food, rather than quality. We show for the first time that they do actually select the foods that will give them the right balance of nutrients.

Test Drive Your New Smile
PreNew PreView, an innovative new technology that lets you “test-drive” your new smile in person. PreNew PreView is a smile preview that fits over your existing teeth to show you just how great they are going to look. Before Pre New PreView, dentists had to rely on digitially manipulated before-and-after photos. Today, dentists have PreNew PreView, which can create a realistic image of what a patient’s new smile will look like once their final dental restoration is complete.

Chemicals Make You Fat
Chemicals are the basis behind the global obesity epidemic, because at the levels of chemicals we are being exposed to, they’re poisoning our weight control systems, which is damaging our ability to lose weight and make us fatter.
The chemicals treat our appetite so that you actually want to eat certain foods and they make you crave the worst foods. Catecholamines like adrenaline and dopamine that help weight loss are reduced by the chemicals, which affects both metabolism and the desire to go out for a walk, so you can’t lose weight the way you could.
Repair Injuries With Fish And Walnuts
People who’ve suffered bodily injury should consider a fish dinner full of omega-3 fatty acids in order to speed up recovery and help damaged nerves regenerate, according to a team of British researchers. Omega-3 fatty acids are vital for the body's normal growth and development. Because the body doesn’t produce omega-3 fatty acids naturally, they have to be consumed in foods such as oily fish or in supplements.

Radiation From Bed, Bath and Beyond: Danger!
The Illinois Emergency Management Agency said Friday it is coordinating with federal officials and Bed, Bath and Beyond to identify and secure the tissue box holders contaminated with cobalt-60. While they present no immediate health risk, according to a release from IEMA, the agency is working with federal officials to prevent unnecessary long term radiation exposure by anyone who comes in contact with them.
As a reference of the relative risk of these items, a person who spends 10 hours within one foot of the holder would receive a dose equivalent to a single chest x-ray. Could be a problem if you sleep near one.
Triclosan Found To Impair Skeletal And Cardiac Function
Triclosan, the antibacterial found in Colgate and other toothpaste, mouthwash, soaps, and other personal care products, is found to impair skeletal and cardiac muscle in fish and mice leading scientists to believe the same happens in humans. In mice up to a 25-percent reduction in heart function measures within 20 minutes of exposure to the chemical.Triclosan has been previously linked to other potentially harmful health effects, including disruption of reproductive hormone activity and of cell signaling in the brain.
