Without sex, people gain weight—a lack of intimacy causes the brain to seek pleasure in food, scientists have found. During sex, dopamine, oxytocin, and endorphins are produced. When there is a lack of these, the body compensates with quick dopamine from the refrigerator—sweet, fatty, and high-calorie foods. Sex acts as a natural appetite regulator: it lowers cortisol levels and temporarily eliminates cravings for sweets. Without intimacy, the brain seeks another source of pleasure — most often in food.

Longevity is 50% dependent on genetics: some people who live to be 100 smoke, drink hard alcohol or beer every night, according to Bloomberg.

— For most of us, healthy eating, regular exercise, and sleep can significantly increase our chances of a long and healthy life. — However, sometimes our genes make us less susceptible to fatal diseases such as heart disease, Alzheimer's, and cancer. — The balance between genetic and environmental factors changes with age. — The role of genes increases with age: while environmental influences predominate up to the age of 85, the likelihood of living to 100 depends more than half on heredity. — Healthy habits include eating a balanced diet, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, not smoking, and drinking alcohol only occasionally, if at all.

Meet Dorito, an alien cat with huge "glass" eyes. And no, it's not AI. Her eyes became like this because of feline infectious peritonitis: it caused severe inflammation, her eyes enlarged and were constantly sore. Fortunately, Dorito defeated the disease and has already found a home, but her alien gaze will remain with her forever.

A man threw a stone at a crow — the next day, a surprise awaited him near his car. Crows are not only intelligent, but also vengeful: they remember faces, recognize their offenders, and "report" them to other birds — a flock can persecute a person for years and pass on information to future generations. We won't hurt birds anymore. Join 👉🏼 EARLIEST OF ALL ▶️ Add all our news channels

Sex and even thoughts about it accelerate beard growth, according to research. It's simple: when a person experiences arousal (even mentally), there is a surge in testosterone levels, which affects muscles, behavior, and hair growth. At the same time, the body doesn't care whether it's real sex or fantasy — the hormonal system still boosts hair growth, and the hair follicles on the face are particularly sensitive to testosterone. The effect was noticed by accident: a man lived in isolation and regularly measured the growth of his stubble, and every time before visiting a woman, his beard began to grow faster. As a result, anticipation alone was enough to trigger hormone production. Join us for more -> @psychologiesi 💡

The cutest job in the world has been found—waking up sleepy otters. In zoos, keepers do this as gently as possible: the animals have a strict feeding and examination schedule, so they need to be woken up softly without sudden movements so as not to frighten them or cause stress.

This could kill your cat — lilies, avocados, chocolate, onions, and garlic are deadly to felines, veterinarians warn. — Petals, leaves, pollen, and even water from a vase where lilies have been standing can cause acute kidney failure — sometimes it is enough for a cat to simply walk past and lick pollen off its paws. — Avocados contain persin, which causes vomiting, diarrhea, swelling, and breathing problems. — Chocolate is dangerous because of theobromine and caffeine, which cats cannot metabolize — even crumbs and cocoa are harmful. — Onions and garlic destroy red blood cells, causing anemia: juice, vapors, and food residues are dangerous.

Meet Michael Phillips, an American man with the smallest penis on the planet (0.90 cm).

A man made a huge fortune by begging. A 50-year-old Indian man spent many years begging in the market, pretending to be a helpless invalid and moving around on a wooden platform with wheels. This aroused pity, and people willingly gave him money. When he was removed from the streets during a campaign against begging, something unexpected came to light: he was earning several thousand dollars a month, lending money to merchants at interest, owning three properties (including a three-story house and an apartment), and had several types of transportation for rent and a personal car with a driver.

Meet the Eurasian pygmy shrew, the smallest rodent in Europe. They weigh only 4-11 grams and reach 55-75 mm in length. These tiny creatures burrow into flowers, such as tulips, and feed on nectar and pollen. Once they have eaten their fill, they may fall asleep inside the petals.

The WD-40 formula is so secret that the head of the company only learned its composition after 30 years of work — it was not even patented. The composition of the lubricant is handwritten in a notebook next to 39 unsuccessful versions (hence the name WD-40) and is stored in a safe deposit box in San Diego. Virtually all of the company's employees have never seen it — even the head of the development department has been working with only an encrypted copy for 20 years. As a result, in the 73 years of the company's existence, no one has been able to replicate this formula.

Cannibal jellyfish with disappearing anuses are terrorising Venice. Venetian canals are flooded with Mnemiopsis leidyi jellyfish, also known as "warty comb jellies" or "sea walnuts". They are on the list of the 100 most dangerous invasive species in the world. The jellyfish clog fishermen's nets in the Venetian lagoon, devour fish larvae and plankton, threatening the ecosystem. The "sea walnut" is known not only for devouring its own young, but also for its disappearing anus — it only appears when the jellyfish defecates and then disappears again.

Four suns rose over Alaska — the same beauty may appear in the sky over Moscow and the Moscow region this weekend.

Millions of red crab hatchlings have flooded Christmas Island in Australia. They migrate from the sea to the jungle to escape predators. This large-scale migration gives hope for the survival of the species, writes People magazine. The journey takes about nine days and ends in the forest, where the crabs will spend the first three years of their lives.

Blackened bananas should not be given to children — alcohol appears in overripe fruit. Due to natural fermentation, alcohol forms in bananas: there is none in green bananas, practically none in ripe ones, but it is always present in darkened ones. However, the alcohol evaporates when bananas are boiled or baked. This makes them ideal for baking.
