pimchawee Jean Twenge, San Diego State University Around 2012, something started going wrong in the lives of teens.

Birth defect rate pegged at 7 pct for babies born to Zika-infected women

By Gene Emery (Reuters Health) - A pregnant woman who becomes ill from the Zika virus faces a 7 percent chance that her child will be born with birth defects, and that risk jumps to nearly 13 percent if she becomes ill during the first trimester, a new study conducted in French territories in the Americas has concluded. The finding "emphasizes the serious global health threat to pregnant women and their infants posed by congenital (Zika virus) infection," said Dr. Margaret Honein of the more here http://logicalscience.com/2018/03/birth-defect-rate-pegged-at-7-pct-for-babies-born-to-zika-infected-women/

Weathering Trump's skepticism, US officials still fighting global warming

By Timothy Gardner and Alister Doyle WASHINGTON/OSLO, March 15 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump has bashed international efforts to combat climate change and questioned the scientific consensus that global warming is dangerous and driven by human consumption of fossil fuels. But there is a disconnect between what Trump says at home and what his government does abroad. While attention has been focused on Trump's rhetoric, State Department envoys, federal agencies, and government more here http://logicalscience.com/2018/03/weathering-trumps-skepticism-us-officials-still-fighting-global-warming/

Are Octopuses Really Aliens? Scientists Conclude After Research

In a previous article, we saw why star fish is so special. Going one step ahead, in this article we are going to see why some scientists consider Octopuses as aliens. According to a particular group of scientists, the octopus, might actually be aliens and not of this world. After extensive genome research, they have mapped out the genetic code of the octopus. Eventually they found it to be so strange that they concluded that it may be extraterrestrial. This study is the first genome more here https://logicalscience.com/2018/03/are-octopuses-really-aliens-scientists-conclude-after-research/

But as many people know, it’s easy to break key elements of the transparent, electrically conductive layers that make up even the sturdiest rigid touchscreen.

Ajit Pai, President Trump’s chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, is a longtime foe of net neutrality. He has proposed completely repealing the Obama administration’s 2015 Open Internet Order, a decision the commission will likely vote to confirm on Dec. 14.

This Idea Can Literally Change the World: Partial Basic Income through Universal Carbon Dividends

A Bipartisan Free Market Solution to Climate Change Through Atmospheric Justice There’s an idea out there with a large and growing consensus of support. Experts long focused on climate change like James Hansen and Bill McKibbensee it as an absolute no-brainer of a policy at this point, which is why about 90 countries included some version of it in their plans as part of the Paris Climate Agreement.

What Causes Delayed Speech In Children

No two children are the same and this is especially true when it comes to the rate at which they develop certain skills such as speech. One reason for this is that how quickly a child learns the art of speech depends on several things such as their individual abilities as well as the words and sounds that they hear on a regular basis. In the majority of cases children start the process of learning and repeating words around the time they reach two years of age. Typically a child in this age more here http://logicalscience.com/2017/12/what-causes-delayed-speech-in-children/

How To Naturally Optimize Human Growth Harmone (HGH) Levels

Research indicates that the best way to elevate HGH levels is to stimulate the body to produce more HGH. Rather than introduce more HGH into the body, you can stimulate your own pituitary gland to produce more HGH. You should remember that studies have shown that an old pituitary gland has the same capacity to produce HGH as a young pituitary gland. If we can find a way to stimulate our pituitary gland we will have the best of all worlds. You are not introducing a foreign HGH, so you eliminate more here http://logicalscience.com/2018/01/how-to-naturally-optimize-human-growth-harmone-hgh-levels/

How Endometriosis Affects Women

Endometriosis is a condition which affects the reproductive system of women. When this condition is present it causes the endometrium which lines the uterus under normal circumstances to grow in various other locations as well. The most common places for this other growth includes the fallopian tubes, ovaries and even the tissue which lines the pelvic area. When endometrial tissue grows in other areas of the body it continues to perform as it would during menstrual cycles. It thickens and more here http://logicalscience.com/2018/01/how-endometriosis-affects-women/

Blood Pressure and Cholesterol Levels are Key Factors in Heart Health

It is often misunderstood how important the levels of blood pressure and cholesterol are in relation to conditions of the heart. When a person is affected by high cholesterol it often causes plaque or a fatty like substance to accumulate in the blood vessels. This action in turn can lead to blockages forming to certain areas of the heart. When these blockages occur it causes the amount of blood that flows to and from the heart to be reduced or in severe cases blocked completely which in turn more here http://logicalscience.com/2016/07/blood-pressure-and-cholesterol-levels-are-key-factors-in-heart-health/

Understanding Lactose Intolerance

Lactose intolerance is a condition which affects a person’s ability to digest dairy products such as milk and other products which contain milk sugar or lactose. Although this condition is not generally serious it can cause some bothersome and annoying effects to those who suffer from it. Lactose intolerance is caused by the body’s failure to produce adequate amounts of lactase. This is an enzyme that is produced by the small intestine however not everyone who has low levels of this enzyme wil more here http://logicalscience.com/2017/08/understanding-lactose-intolerance/

Early Detection of Aortic Valve Insufficiency is Essential for Proper Treatment

There are four valves that control the flow of blood to and from the heart. One of these valves known as the aortic valve is directly responsible for the amount of blood that is released from the left ventricle to the main artery known as the aorta that travels to all areas of the body. When this valve does not function properly due to being damaged or other reasons it is referred to as aortic valve insufficiency. This condition is most common among the older generation and is considered to be more here http://logicalscience.com/2018/02/early-detection-of-aortic-valve-insufficiency-is-essential-for-proper-treatment/

The Only Supplement That Can Really Help You With Common Cold

For a long time now, there is a myth that high doses of vitamin C can control common cold. However, several studies have conclusively proved that vitamin C has no effect on common cold viruses. An extensive 2013 review of 29 trials that involved more than 11,300 people found "no consistent effect of vitamin C on the duration or severity of colds." The negligible cases where the researchers observed some benefits of vitamin C was among marathon runners, skiers, and soldiers on "subarctic e more here http://logicalscience.com/2018/02/the-only-supplement-that-can-really-help-you-with-common-cold/
