Reply to comment by [deleted] in Ancient dormant viruses found in permafrost, once revived, can infect amoeba. Findings hint at a much bigger problem—as the planet warms and the permafrost melts, there is a chance of viruses emerging that are capable of infecting humans by Wagamaga
Andromeda Strain? Decent book I thought. Movie was ok iirc but its been a minute.

For anyone worried about Scientists reviving a virus should know that Amoebas do not share any viruses with animals and humans because of their extremely large evolutionary distance.

Breath exercises and mindfulness are the same thing to many people.

Reply to comment by sea_of_joy__ in Aromatic hexazine rings — [N₆]⁴⁻ — an all-nitrogen analogue of benzene, have finally been synthesized by researchers using high-pressure, laser-heated synthesis. The hexazine rings are present within a complex K₉N₅₆ structure containing [N₆]⁴⁻ and [N₅]⁻ rings as well as neutral nitrogen dimers. by MurphysLab
These molecules help chemists to understand the properties of aromatic molecules. Think of it as a single data point, but the most difficult data point for the experiment; one which no one has ever been able to get before. But that data point answers questions about the nature of several other chemical compounds.

Diaphrametic Breathing is taught in conjunction with both meditation and mindfulness at every Pain Clinic that I've attended (6) in the last 20 years. Together, they do indeed improve my mood because they help regulate my perception of pain.

Same. I don't even want to think about the effect coffee going extinct would have on society.

If you're doing it with intention and focus, yes. Yoga is a "moving meditation".

Don't cut yourself on that edge.

So the whole time I'm busting my ass pumping iron at the gym, I'm also meditating? Far out

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Healthy gut bacteria can help fight cancer in other parts of the body (Mar 2023, mice) Immune checkpoint blockade induces gut microbiota translocation that augments extraintestinal antitumor immunity by MaximilianKohler
That's not accurate.
Besides what I mentioned above, fermented foods contain non-host-native microbes, and thus are vastly overhyped.
