Are Men More Capable of Doing "Idiotic" Acts Than Women? Study Says "Yes"

Medicine & Technology Could it be the raging testosterone, or is it just that men are really the mentally weaker sex? When it comes to displaying risky behavior and pulling stunts that are considered "stupid" to the point of "idiotic", men are ahead of the pack, a recent study found. Such stunts were labeled idiotic as the perpetrators had lost their lives in an unthinking manner in doing such acts.

A Bit of Mediterranean Lifestyle Could Help You Live Longer

As if we didn’t already know that life on the Mediterranean is much better for our health, than the hectic city life and fast food of metropolises, it turns out that new research published this week in the British Medical Journal reveals that a Mediterranean Diet is amongst the healthiest out there. But while you may imagine strolls on the beach and kilos of gelato to take home, like many trips to Italy undoubtedly have, the diet that Harvard researchers investigated for the study was the trademark diet known of the Mediterranean – rich in olive oils, fish, vegetables, legumes and low in sugar. With a little added touch; a glass of wine traditional with every meal. And what the researchers found is that women who follow the strictly healthy fat diet have significantly longer life spans than women who don’t have a healthy diet – keeping them younger and in better health for years more than the global average.
