President Donald Trump recently announced the launch of TrumpRx, a new government-operated online drug marketplace designed to offer discounted prescription medicines directly to Americans.
This initiative aims to significantly reduce healthcare costs by allowing consumers to purchase dozens of commonly used drugs, including popular GLP-1 weight-loss medications, through an official government platform.
Trump specifically highlighted that drugs like Ozempic, which typically cost around 1,000permonth,wouldbeavailableforjust199, emphasizing this as "a very big deal" for American families. This substantial price reduction is made possible by Trump's "most favored nation" model, which seeks to align U.S. drug prices with the lowest prices paid for the same medications in other countries.
The White House has stated that TrumpRx is intended to enhance access to more affordable and essential medicines, particularly benefiting vulnerable patients across the nation. This move is poised to potentially save countless Americans a significant amount of money on their prescription drug expenses.
It's pretty wild to think that humans share about 99.9% of their DNA, making us genetically almost identical at our core. Yet, that tiny remaining 0.1% variation is where all the magic happens, packed with millions of subtle differences in our DNA.
These small genetic tweaks are incredibly powerful, shaping a wide array of observable traits like your unique eye color, the specific shade of your skin tone, and even your overall height. Beyond outward appearances, these variations contribute to the distinct contours of our facial features and can significantly influence our individual susceptibility to certain diseases.
What's more, these genetic nuances dictate how our bodies process the food we eat, react to various medications, and even adapt to different environmental factors. So, while the percentage of difference seems minuscule, it's profoundly impactful, ensuring that every single person is a truly unique biological individual, both inside and out.
Patience and relaxation paid off for Prune, the capybara who captured hearts in Japan by winning the country’s unique “Long Bath Showdown.” The competition, held at a local hot spring, challenges participants to remain immersed for as long as possible, and Prune stayed in the warm waters for an impressive 1 hour and 55 minutes.
Capybaras are known for their love of water, but this display of calm endurance drew crowds and delighted onlookers. Owners and fans praised her serene demeanor, noting how her steady soak reflected the animal’s natural affinity for relaxation and social bonding. Prune’s victory is being celebrated as a gentle reminder of the charm and tranquility that animals can bring to everyday life.
Recent advancements in biotechnology have produced broad-spectrum “universal” antivenoms that can neutralize venoms from many snake species, reducing the need for species-specific treatments. One major breakthrough was developed at Columbia University’s Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons in New York, creating a cocktail of human antibodies that protects against neurotoxins from many of the world’s deadliest snakes. This approach could greatly improve emergency snakebite treatment by offering wider protection with a single therapy. Another promising treatment was developed at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), using llama-derived nanobodies to target multiple dangerous African snake species with high effectiveness and potentially lower cost. Together, these university-led innovations mark a major step toward safer and more accessible antivenom worldwide. 🐍 #biochemistry#septum#spectrum#fblifestylechallenge#doctor
During abdominal surgery, surgeons may temporarily move the intestines out of the way to reach other organs. After the procedure, they gently place the intestines back into the abdominal cavity. Because the intestines are long, flexible, and not fixed in one exact position, they don’t need to be arranged perfectly. Natural gut movement (peristalsis), gravity, and the shape of the abdomen help the intestines shift and settle back into place. Surgeons mainly focus on making sure nothing is twisted, trapped, or bleeding before closing. #doctor#patientcare#fblifestylechallenge

A recent study by Harvard Health Publishing reveals that taking a simple 12-minute walk with a friend each day can provide significant health benefits. This daily activity has been shown to enhance brain chemistry, improving mood and cognitive function over time. Additionally, walking regularly supports heart health by boosting circulation and reducing the risk of heart disease. Beyond the physical benefits, spending time with a friend during these walks can also strengthen social connections, contributing to a greater sense of well-being. Ultimately, this small, consistent habit may even contribute to a longer and healthier life. #students#friendship#newstart
According to researchers at the University of California, the scent of lemon has been shown to significantly boost cognitive performance. In their studies, participants who were exposed to the scent demonstrated a remarkable 226% increase in cognitive capacity. This effect was particularly noticeable in tasks requiring concentration and mental clarity. The researchers suggest that the lemon scent activates certain brain areas, enhancing focus and memory retention. As a result, this simple, natural aroma may offer an effective, non-invasive way to improve mental performance in various settings. #UniversityOfCalifornia#students#usa
