Science may be telling fans of the stand-up desk to take a seat. A

Women
aren't the only ones with issues about body image. A study found that
up to 40-percent of men were unhappy with some aspect of their looks.

men were fine with their weight, but being obese was a negative. Source Link
Managing
diabetes could someday be as easy as slapping on a patch. Testing is
underway on a skin patch that would monitor blood sugar levels via sweat
and deliver a diabetes drug through microneedles. The patch won’t work
with insulin but could be used by people with Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.
