A diet low in carbohydrates and high in protein may reduce the risk of cancer and slow the growth of tumors already present, according to a study published in Cancer Research.

Perceptions of racism may cause loss of sleep and perhaps loss of sleep may also impact perceptions of racism.
A new study has found that
self-reported sleep disturbance correlated to perceived racism, which was increased by 61 percent after adjusting for socioeconomic factors and symptoms of depression. A similar relationship between perceived racism and daytime fatigue was no longer significant after additional adjustment for depressive symptoms.
Lady Gaga is a marketing-fueled pop music phenomenon. If you exclude her music, she can do no wrong, and every appearance, even a walk through an airport, is carefully choreographed. She knows her audience.

The American Academy of Sleep Medicine says that chronic insomnia, symptoms that last for at least a month, affects about 10 percent of adults. Most often insomnia is a "comorbid" disorder, occurring with another medical illness, mental disorder or sleep disorder, or associated with certain medications or substances. Fewer people with insomnia are considered to have primary insomnia, which is defined as a difficulty falling asleep or maintaining sleep in the absence of coexisting conditions.
Baseball coaches often use traditional metrics for managerial decisions, like batting results against specific pitchers, performance in certain park configurations and whether they bat from the left or right side in making strategic lineup decisions.
Maybe some day they can also think about what 'sleep type' their players are.
If you're in an older generation and a female calls another female "dude", it may seem strange to you.
