If you want to improve your health in 2026, experts say keep it simple. Be cautious of health and wellness fads. There are no magic fixes.

Instinctively - yes. But where is the bigger question ? Where would the eagles have the best chance? The successes with ospreys show it can be done. 🤞🦅

Must read on how deaths from extreme heat/climate crisis are being hidden from public view in the US. It’s killing you, but you’re not allowed to know about it. Excellent work by my colleague @ninalakhani.bsky.social

Americans are dying from extreme heat. Autopsy reports don’t show the full story
Official reports are likely to overlook heat’s role in a death. As US temperatures rise, experts say the true toll needs to be counted
