Overlooked Virus Killer
Sales of vitamin C supplements have tripled in the last few weeks… And the most powerful kind of vitamin C is sold out on Amazon. (More on that in a minute.) I’m glad to see people turning to vitamin C. But the the chewable form you usually find at the drugstore won’t give you the boost you’re looking for. You see, absorption — or bioavailability — is an issue, and your body can only absorb about 500 mg of this conventional form of vitamin C before you hit saturation. And that’s nowhere near enough. In a moment I’ll show you a better form of vitamin C… and how you can take ...

Hypertension is associated with increased mortality in patients with tuberculosis in Guinea-Bissau
Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a major health problem in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). In 2019, WHO estimated that there were 10 million new cases of TB, and 1.4 million deaths due to TB worldwide (World Health Organization, 2020). At the same time, LMICs face a rapid increase in the burden of noncommunicable diseases such as diabetes mellitus (DM) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including coronary heart disease and stroke. More than 75% of cardiovascular deaths occur in LMICs (World Health Organization, 2014).

Did interstellar debris fall to the sea floor? Claim meets sea of doubt
In 2014, a rock from space blazed through the atmosphere and exploded off the coast of Papua New Guinea with such ferociousness that some researchers believe the object came from beyond the Solar System. Now, a team of researchers says it has recovered remnants of the meteor from the floor of the Pacific Ocean and claims that a preliminary analysis of their unusual composition points to an origin around another star. Only in the past few years have astronomers realized that interstellar objects sometimes whizz through the Solar System and might even hit Earth. Finding a lump of rock from another planetary system would...

Should beetles be named after Adolf Hitler?
In 1934, a German paleontologist named a giant flying insect from the Carboniferous period Rochlingia hitleri , after Adolf Hitler, who had just taken power in Germany, and Hermann Röchling, an anti-semitic steel manufacturer and member of the Nazi Party. Three years later, an Austrian amateur entomologist named a brown, eyeless beetle from Slovenian caves Anophthalmus hitleri because he admired Hitler. In recent years, neo-Nazis have reportedly paid thousands for specimens, pushing the beetle toward extinction . Some researchers have argued for years that A. hitleri and other spec...
