The science of staying young, healthy, and in-shape.

The Science Responsible for the Success of GenF20 Plus
Everybody is looking for the fountain of youth. Adults all over the world, regardless of numerical age, are looking for the elixir that will keep them young, vibrant, active, and ready. The women’s market tends to look at skin products for their pursuits. It’s all about the creams and the face tightening. But men? Men know inherently that their youth comes from within. We don’t want to trade our marks of character so much as see them in a whole new light. This is why men choose HGH release technology. We want to bring back that vibrant and bold state that naturally dissipates with age. But out in the wild, wild, west of the supplement industry, who is to say what works and what doesn’t? What’s stopping someone from pitching on some gas station pill promising you the world between “vegan” capsules? The sad thing is that there’s only one way of knowing, and that’s sticking with what works.

Eye-Eating Parasite Causes Blindness in Contact Lens Wearers
If James Bond was visually impaired, any glasses wearer would naturally assume that his most treasured piece of equipment would have to be his contact lenses. They are brilliant, after all. Say goodbye to boxy frames on our faces and the need for windscreen wipers in the rain—contact lenses are sleek and subtle and they are here to save the day! Or so we thought... Recently, stories have emerged which warn against a rare eye infection called 'Acanthamoeba Keratitis', most often associated with contact lens wearers. With millions of people wearing contact lenses every day, it is important that we take a closer look at the risks involved before we tear off our glasses with reckless abandon and yell 'good riddance!'

The Irish Potato Famine and Epigenetics
From 1845 to 1852, Ireland experienced one of its most devastating famines. Called the “Great Hunger,” it’s estimated to have killed one million Irish and forced a further two million to emigrate. But the effects have impacted more than the generations who survived. Through epigenetics, it has subsequently impacted the lives and heath of nearly every generation that came afterwards. Epigenetics is the study of the process by which genetic information is translated into the substance and behavior of an organism. Our genes, and the epigenetics that “sit” on them, determine our health, longevity, and dispositions. Not only can these be influenced by biology, but our own actions and experiences as well. Thus, our ancestors’ life experiences have influenced their own epigenetics, which in turn influence our parents’ and finally our own. When examining the Irish Potato Famine, the individual can be understood as the actual individual person experiencing the famine. The group thus becomes the population of Ireland during this time.

The Surprising Science Behind Lull, the Mattress That Will Change the Way You Sleep. Top Story - August 2019. Created with: Lull.
There’s nothing better than crawling into bed at night and there’s no place in the world more comfortable than your own bed (especially in those moments just before you fall asleep). Unfortunately, those fleeting moments of comfort are not as universal as you’d think. According to Consumer Reports, 68 percent of Americans have trouble sleeping at least once a week and Americans spent $41 billion on sleep aids in 2015. From sleep apnea and restless leg syndrome to anxiety and stress, there are plenty of factors that can contribute to a lack of sleep. In fact, according to the National Sleep Foundation, lost sleep can never be recovered. The easiest factor to fix? Your sleep environment.

Another School in Williamsburg, BK Hit By Measles...
I am no parent. I do know what it means to raise my nephews and niece. I’d like for their parents though, to be the most informed parents they can be to raise their kids well. Native New Yorker or not, education is a right to be utilized by all. As a child of immigrants I am proud to be educated, but unfortunately, I am disillusioned with how some utilize their platform of education to dissuade others from making decisions that help the young thrive.

The Digestive Enzyme Guide
Digestive Enzymes – A Thorough Breakdown Chances are that if you’ve ever been in a supplement store such as GNC or walked through the health market section of a Whole Foods, you’ve seen the large displays of digestive enzymes. Big, bold letters claiming various functions and promising to support digestion and enhance nutrient absorption among other things. You probably think to yourself, “Well, I feel fine when I eat so this probably isn’t something I need.” While you may very well not ‘feel’ that you have issues with your digestive process, this isn’t something to write off. On the other hand, if you’re like me and have off-season bodybuilding or heavy training diet consisting of 4,000+ calories on a daily basis, sometimes the sheer volume of food can leave you feeling a bit heavy and ‘full’, and not in a good way. Regardless of which category you fall into, you’ve arrived at this article for a reason, so let’s dig in and break down what digestive enzymes entail.
