The Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gives Americans the right to bear arms, but the Amendment, which was published in 1791 (and was
|itself inspired by the English Bill of Rights of 1689) is used by many

Northwestern University researchers introduced the first-ever transient pacemaker—a fully implantable, wireless device that harmlessly dissolves in the body after it’s no longer needed. Now, they unveil a new, smart version that is integrated into a coordinated network of four soft, flexible, wireless, wearable sensors and control units placed around the upper body.

When farmers use pesticides to grow food, residues of those pesticides often persist in the finished food that people and animals consume.

# Food / Farming / GMOs / Chemicals / Other What is the glycemic index (GI)? Carbohydrates are found in breads, cereals, fruits, vegetables, and dairy products. They’re an essential part of a healthy diet. When you eat any type of carb, your digestive system breaks it down into simple sugars that enter the bloodstream. Not all carbs are the same, as different types have unique effects on blood sugar.
The three GI ratings are:
Low: 55 or fewer
Medium: 56–69
High: 70 or more
