Cataloguing invisible life: Microbe genome emerges from lake sediment

'Bad Carbs' Not the Enemy, U.Va. Professor Says
The latest common wisdom on carbohydrates claims that eating so-called "bad" carbohydrates will make you fat, but University of Virginia professor Glenn Gaesser says, "that's just nonsense."

Girls need a more satisfying breakfast than boys if they are to perform at their best in the classroom - a new University of Ulster study has revealed.

Genes may make some people more motivated to eat, perhaps overeat
Science has found one likely contributor to the way that some folks eat to live and others live to eat. Researchers at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York, have found that people with genetically lower dopamine, a neurotransmitter that helps make behaviors and substances more rewarding, find food to be more reinforcing than... view more...
