Some Canadians prefer Big Macs to sex: survey

Some Canadians prefer Big Macs to sex: survey Most of us rely on fast food to sub for a healthy meal at some point — but wolfing down a two-patty, triple-bun burger on a regular basis spells trouble, if the Academy Award-nominated documentary, Super Size Me, got its facts right. Big Macs, for example, run more than 500 calories and contain plenty of sodium and fat. Some Canadians, however, prefer noshing on the iconic MacDonald’s big burger to sex, a survey has found. That’s right, sex. We’ve… Continue

Car fuel could be created from thin air using an enzyme from a common soil bacterium, say scientists.

Car fuel 'could be made from thin air' Car fuel could be created from thin air using an enzyme from a common soil bacterium, say scientists. Cars could one day create their own fuel out of thin air, according to scientists. Photo: BLOOMBERG It is hoped that this will lead to a cheap way of making environmentally friendly, carbon-neutral 'green' fuel that can be used without major redesigns of car engines. Azotobacter vinelandii, a microbe found around the roots of various food plants, creates… Continue

A truly toxic issue - Modern life is saturated with carcinogenic chemicals. But without regulation, just how are we supposed to avoid them?

A truly toxic issue - Modern life is saturated with carcinogenic chemicals. But without regulation, just how are we supposed to avoid them? I used to be under the impression that you had a reasonable chance of avoiding debilitating and potentially fatal diseases like cancer if you just took a few simple precautions: ate plenty of fruit and vegetables, gave up smoking, drank in moderation and did a bit of exercise. It's since become apparent that the world we live in is so overrun with environme… Continue

Classical music moves the heart in vegetative patients

Classical music moves the heart in vegetative patients Classical music pulls at the heartstrings of people in a vegetative state as well as those of healthy listeners. If you play music to vegetative patients, their heart rate changes in the same way as that of healthy controls, suggesting that music can affect the neural systems of emotion even when conscious thought is impossible. Francesco Riganello at the Santa Anna Institute in Crotone, Italy, and colleagues played four pieces of classica… Continue

Scientists discover what makes us live longer New test unlocks secrets of life expectancy by predicting which of us will reach 100 A genetic test has been developed that can predict whether someone is likely to live an extremely long life, but scientists have warned that society is still not ready for such predictions.
