A recent study found that drinking watermelon juice every day for two weeks helped young adults keep their heart rate variability stable after consuming a sugary drink. Heart rate variability measures how well the body shifts between stress and relaxation modes. Normally, blood sugar spikes after ea
Scientists found a tiny ocean organism doing big things. This isn't just any bacteria—it's a type of cyanobacterium called Capilliphycus salinus ALCB114379. It lives where the ocean meets land in Brazil, where tides and weather constantly change. This tough little survivor has a complete genome mapp
Algae act like the grass of underwater worlds, turning sunlight into food for fish and other creatures. But tiny amounts of metals in water can harm them. A new study looked at how different algae types react to these metals. Researchers found that diatoms—algae with silica shells—are easily damage
Every business today needs AI, whether they like it or not. That’s not just a bold claim but a warning from a top investor. While people often think AI is only for tech startups, this investor argues that even traditional companies must adapt or get left behind. The shift isn’t just about buildi
Meta Platforms is lining up a massive loan package that could reach about $13 billion to build a new data center in El Paso, Texas. The move shows how big tech companies increasingly depend on borrowed money to support the rapid expansion of artificial‑intelligence infrastructure. The deal involv
Obesity continues to grow as a worldwide problem, and experts agree we need fast, affordable ways to help people manage weight. Digital programs that focus on healthy habits—like tracking food or exercise—have become a popular solution. But most studies mix these programs with human coaching, making
Reuters recently earned a Pulitzer Prize for uncovering how Meta’s platforms—Facebook and Instagram—profited from risky AI chatbots and shady ads. Their investigation relied on leaked internal documents and clever undercover methods, like creating fake user profiles to test the platforms’ hidden fea
Meta has just bought a startup that builds AI for robots, signaling the company’s ambition to create humanoid machines. The acquisition gives Meta a team that is already working on models enabling robots to read human actions and react in real‑time, a key step toward everyday robot helpers. Th
The body has a clever trick to stay warm in cold weather: it burns fat to generate heat. This process, called adaptive thermogenesis, acts like a built-in heater but also helps fight obesity. Scientists recently discovered a protein called Feimin that plays a key role in turning on this fat-burning
A study looked at how Preksha Dhyana (PD) meditation changes the body’s chemistry. Researchers tested 38 healthy adults who had never meditated before. Half did an 8-week PD course while the others did nothing. Blood samples were taken before and after. The meditators showed higher levels of specifi
