Scientists have suggested using a tinder fungus instead of plastic.

The researchers studied the structure of the fungus F. fomentarius and found that its parts were as strong as plywood, pine or leather, but were lighter than these materials. Such characteristics of the tinder fungus are due to the fact that it must withstand the harsh conditions of the change of seasons, as well as tree branches falling from above. This strength allows it to be used to create new synthetic materials.

Good sleep prolongs life by several years.

Research has shown that men who sleep well regularly can live up to five years longer than those who don't, and women can live up to two years. They usually also enjoy better health throughout their lives. However, the quality of sleep is key. The scientists identified the following factors: an ideal duration of seven to eight hours a night, difficulty falling asleep and trouble sleeping no more than twice a week, no sleeping pills, and feeling good after waking up at least five days a week. More research is now needed to determine why men doubled their life expectancy compared to women who had the same quality sleep.

Палеонтологи выяснили, почему хищные динозавры вырастали такими огромными.

Скорость роста скелета «записывается» на спилах костей так же, как на кольцах деревьев. Широкие полосы формируются в сезоны с большим количеством корма, а узкие в то время, когда животное не доедало. Оказалось, что динозавры становились огромными не из-за быстрого роста, а благодаря долгой продолжительности жизни. Тираннозавры, например, достигали зрелости лишь к 20 годам, а жили около 30–40 лет.

Skipping breakfast constantly compromises the immune system and can increase the risk of cancer and heart disease. The researchers observed two groups of mice. The first was fed a hearty breakfast immediately after waking up. The second - gave only water. At the same time, immediately after the rise and after four and eight hours, blood was taken from the rodents for analysis.

To keep or return a person, you need to let him go.

It is important not to succumb to provocations, but to continue to stand your ground. On its self-worth and its principles. You need to learn to continue to love and at the same time be true to yourself, hold on to your inner support. You need to become confident, strong, independent and whole. It is to become, not to seem. Do not play the role of a self-sufficient person in order to change your partner. Namely, to be. To be in this life who we really are, whole and self-sufficient. And give your love and build relationships from a position of sufficiency, not need.

To keep or return a person, you need to let him go.

A crisis in a relationship cannot be avoided, because when one changes, becoming independent and confident, the other begins to experience discomfort. The habitual and understandable form of interaction for him collapses, which invariably leads to a feeling of anxiety and danger. The partner may panic and protest against this, provoking conflicts and quarrels. He will undermine your self-confidence, rejecting and not approving any undertakings and projects, he will criticize, condemn, ignore and devalue. In the end, he can find himself an alternate airfield and accuse you of leaving because of your indifference. The main thing is not to believe in it. He leaves not because of you, but because of himself, because of the internal conflict that has appeared. What was projected on you, now turned out to be in it. But instead of dealing with himself, recognizing, realizing the shadow sides in himself, he runs from the problem to another partner who will save him from internal growth, development and pain.

To keep or return a person, you need to let him go.

Let him switch places with you. When he sees that no one else runs after him and returns, does not achieve and does not prove, he will be left alone with himself. And with all their false ideas about their value. If there is no one who confirms his self-confidence and his value, then the illusion of the support on which the image of himself was built begins to crumble.

To keep or return a person, you need to let him go.

The other one thinks something like this: “If I prove to him that it’s better for him not to find me, then I will finally receive from him the kind of love that I deserve.” So, addressing those who seek love or want to return a partner, I recommend letting him go. Stop hanging on it and catch up. Let him calm down and stop being afraid that someone wants to deprive him of his freedom and the future he deserves (or she, no matter).
