... Obesity is one of the major factors that will drive rises in illnesses. In contrast, try: Wall squats and planks best at lowering blood pressure wrote: Strength-training exercises such as wall squats or holding the plank position are among the best ways to lower blood pressure, a study suggests.

The few times per year when I want a carbonated beverage aka soda/pop I prefer real cane sugar as the sweetener. It won't be an artificial lab made sweetener or high fructose corn sweetener. |

Corrupt lobbying in action?... EPA’s new definition of PFAS could omit thousands of ‘forever chemicals’ wrote: The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) office responsible for protecting the public from toxic substances has changed how it defines PFAS for a second time since 2021, a move critics say they fear will exclude thousands of “forever chemicals” from regulation and largely benefit industry.

In continental Europe we are still relatively at the beginning. Through cross-border coordinated approval processes and regulations, such as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals), the aim is to move away from regulating or banning chemicals that are known or suspected of being unhealthy/dangerous, but instead register and authorize each individual chemical, each individual raw material from manufacturers and retailers (registration numbers) and to continuously keep an eye on the risks to environment and health. Such international projects take time. Costs (for industry) and benefits for environment and health must be weighed up. REACH addresses the production and use of chemical substances, and their potential impacts on both human health and the environment. Its 849 pages took seven years to pass, and it has been described as the most complex legislation in the Union's history and the most important in 20 years. It is the strictest law to date regulating chemical substances and will affect industries throughout the world. REACH entered into force on 1 June 2007, with a phased implementation over the next decade. The regulation also established the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA in Helsinki, Finland), which manages the technical, scientific and administrative aspects of REACH. [EDIT:] The expansion of cities in the Middle Ages established the division of labor, long-distance trade and also brought plagues and epidemics due to a lack of knowledge and poor hygiene. The industrial age also brought air and water pollution, affecting the health of millions of people. Chemistry has invented thousands of extremely useful substances, some of which are probably dangerous and unhealthy in the long term. Nevertheless, progress in human development has always been evident. New things first need |

Donny and Elon should read this. Diet soft drinks classed as ‘no better’ than regular soda versions. And going by those pair there are even more side effects. |

Unhealthy supermarkets coercion???... ... loyalty card prices not as good as they seem... wrote: ... advertised ... for £6 with a [store] card - a saving of £2.10 on the regular price of £8.10.
