Graduates face underemployment in 41% of cases, earning starting salaries like $50,000 that barely cover loans, especially for […]
Pesticides like glyphosate, organophosphates, and neonicotinoids, used widely in agriculture, disrupt gut health by harming the gut microbiome, the diverse bacteria in our intestines vital for digestion, immunity, and overall health. Chronic exposure through food or the environment causes dysbiosis, reducing beneficial bacteria like Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes, lowering microbial diversity, and weakening the gut barrier. […]

In May 2025, a 5,000-ton Choe Hyon-class destroyer sank during its launch at North Korea’s Chongjin shipyard, dealing a blow to Kim Jong Un’s naval ambitions. The accident, caused by a faulty side launch and operational negligence, damaged the hull, delaying the warship’s debut. Kim condemned the failure as a “criminal act,” vowing to restore […]
Vitamin D, the “sunshine vitamin,” may slow biological aging by supporting cellular health, reducing inflammation, and protecting against age-related diseases. It promotes telomere maintenance, epigenetic regulation, and mitochondrial function, while combating inflammaging and cellular senescence. Found in fatty fish, fortified foods, and supplements, vitamin D is also synthesized through sunlight exposure. Deficiency, common globally, accelerates […]
Does WiFi affect sleep? WiFi emits low-level radiofrequency (RF) radiation, raising concerns about its impact on sleep quality, melatonin production, and circadian rhythms. Research, like a 2016 study in Journal of Sleep Research, shows no significant link between typical WiFi exposure and sleep disturbances, though some report issues possibly due to electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS). Blue […]
