We all cringe at those failing grades on restaurant health
inspections, but most home kitchens wouldn’t pass the test either. A
study found that two out of three homes had a kitchen sponge or
dishcloth that harbored bacteria and the sink and the fridge were other
hot spots for germs that can make you sick. And watch out near your
pet’s food bowl that can be a free buffet for ants, roaches and flies. Source Link
Exercise
can make you younger right down to your cells. A new study found that
people who exercised the most had biological aging markers that appeared
nine years younger than those who were sedentary. A part of every cell
in your body called a telomere shrinks a bit as we age, and people who
exercised the most had longer telomeres. Source Link
This
sounds like a great new twist on laundry day. Researchers have built an
energy-efficient clothes dryer that blasts a wet load with
high-frequency sound waves. The ultrasound vibrates water droplets out
of fabric, forming a fine mist that's siphoned out like a regular dryer.
The research was sponsored by GE, which plans to use the technology in
a future product. Source Link
