You've already heard of the Mediterranean diet, chock-full of heart-healthy benefits and links to general wellness. But have you heard of the Atlantic diet? A study published in JAMA linked a diet plentiful in fish, dried fruits, vegetables, beans and minimally processed foods with a lower risk of metabolic syndrome, a term for a variety of common health conditions that raise the risk of chronic disease. Specifically, researchers in 2014 and 2015 recruited families, which included more than 50

Microplastics have just been found to be in our chewing gum. Researchers at UCLA discovered that microplastics are released directly into our mouths every time we chew gum. In a new study published in Chemistry for Life, scientists tested 10 different chewing gum brands and found microplastics in each one. Both natural and synthetic varieties were shown to shed microscopic plastic particles during chewing. On average, each gram of gum releases around 100 microplastics, with some pieces spiking a

I don't use the microwave all that much these days now that I've got an air fryer in my kitchen. Microwaves tend to get a bad rap, and to be fair, some of it's deserved. But they do have strengths. Microwave radiation is actually great for reheating certain foods, especially when you're in a rush. CNET While the air fryer easily gets five times more use than the microwave in my home for making quick meals and reheating leftovers, I haven't totally abandoned it. It's handy for little tasks like
