    Dogs also prefer consonants: how our language shapes their brain (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Everything is contagious, even the way we listen and understand. For humans, consonants usually carry more information than vowels. This pattern appears in many languages: when a sentence is stripped down to its bones, those bones are more recognizable if consonants dominate. That is why Spanish has 23 consonants and five vowels, a ratio that holds in almost every language. It is also why people drop vowels when they want to save characters in a message. Our brains fill in the gaps more effectiv

    The Red Bull generation: How energy drinks became the fuel for a fast-paced society (opens the original)

In 2015 cases of malaria —one of the diseases spread by mosquitoes—hit a historic low. Since then, however, figures have plateaued.

The insecticides used since th

    Obesity is inherited: How genes shape our relationship with food (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Obesity is written in our DNA and predicts, like a genetic prophecy, the body type we will have. A few decades ago it was easier to rebel against that fate — to fight our genetic programming and keep extra pounds at bay. But in an obesogenic world, surrounded by ubiquitous cheap and addictive food products, it is increasingly difficult. A series of recent scientific articles has strengthened this idea, which is gaining traction in the age of Ozempic and is helping to challenge the notion that ob
