But first we need to understand the goal. What do we really mean by resilience when we talk about immunity? It’s such a buzzword that I imagine many of us blow right past it, but resilience is the real key to understanding the foundation for a healthy immune system. Your immune system is one of the primary interfaces you have between the interior world of your body and the exterior world of your society and planet....

However, if you want to be as proactive and intentional as possible, it’s worth adding targeted and functional brain-loving bioactives like Sceletium tortuosum, aka kanna, to your routine.* The powerful botanical is one of the main active ingredients in mbg’s brain guard+ trio, our comprehensive nootropic supplement—and it might very well be your brain’s new BFF.* The plant has been used as an herbal remedy by Indigenous tribes for hundreds of years, according to a 2021 review article1 in Molecules....

Here’s everything you need to know about being pansexual, or “pan” for short. “As someone who identifies as pansexual, I define pansexuality as being attracted to people who are located anywhere along the spectrum of gender identity,” says psychologist Akilah Sigler, LMHC. This isn’t to say pansexual people are attracted to everyone, but gender just isn’t the defining factor in who they are and aren’t attracted to. Some pansexual people say that they’re attracted to people based on personality, with gender playing no role at all....

Your rising sign reveals how you interact with the world, from your appearance to your attitude to the first impressions you make on others. For example, a Leo sun with a Capricorn rising will likely exhibit Capricorn-like traits you wouldn’t expect from typical Leo energy, or will even physically look more like a Capricorn. Your rising sign also determines where your first house of identity falls in your chart (your ascendant is always your first house), which sets the stage for the rest of the houses in your chart....

Some vitamins are water-soluble, while others are fat-soluble (i.e., vitamins A, D, E, and K). B vitamins are water-soluble by nature. So you might assume that you’ll reap the most benefits taking your B complex on an empty stomach with a wonderfully hydrating glass of water, right?...

Now, given how much immunity has been a topic of conversation over the past two years, it only makes sense that you might be considering zinc supplements. Zinc is available in certain foods like oysters, red meat, poultry, fortified breakfast cereals, beans, nuts, whole grains, and dairy products. That said, there is a zinc dietary gap, particularly for vegetarians and vegans. As mbg vice president of scientific affairs Ashley Jordan Ferira, Ph....

Now, let’s be clear about who these women are. A 2015 survey found one in three women report watching porn weekly. Meanwhile, a 2014 CDC report found just 1.4 percent of women identify as lesbian, and a more recent Gallup report found about 5 percent of women identify as LGBT. So while actual lesbians likely account for at least some of lesbian porn’s popularity, these numbers do suggest there’s quite a lot of straight-identifying women who also enjoy watching women getting intimate with each other....
