Your biological age with a “fasting-mimicking diet.” You need to stick to a highly controlled diet low in protein, carbs and calories and high in unsaturated fats for five days, followed by 25 days of “normal” eating. Folks who tried this diet had lower insulin resistance, liver fat and inflammation after three cycles.

Don’t want to waste precious time looking for something to watch? Let me point you straight to the good stuff! Here’s everything new this month that’s worth a stream.
Hello, black leather, bullets and Keanu: All three “Matrix” movies are on Netflix this month. If that’s not your bag, “Happy Gilmore” with Adam Sandler is always a hole-in-one. Or treat the kids to “Hotel Transylvania” (and then “Hotel Transylvania 2”).
You and I aren’t the only ones being tracked by targeted ads … so are the world’s top leaders. Turns out the Pentagon’s best-kept surveillance secret isn’t pen cameras — it’s cookies.
Buckle up for the wild story of how the U.S. government used targeted ads to track down its target: Vladimir Putin.
🌑 Help NASA: Tomorrow’s total solar eclipse is gracing North America, and NASA’s calling for backup. Your smartphone will do just fine. Snap the eclipse using SunSketcher (iOS and Android), or keep tabs on the climate with Globe Observer (iOS and Android). If you still need glasses, some libraries are handing them out for free.
How often does the U.S. Geological Survey’s website update with info on recent earthquakes? Is it every … A.) 2.5 minutes, B.) 8 minutes, C.) 20 minutes or D.) 60 minutes?
🪐 Share with your parent friends: The Snapchat+ Solar System feature is tearing apart teen friendships. It ranks how close you are to your friends based on how often you interact. Think you’re someone’s Mercury, only to find out you’re more of a Uranus? Upsetting for sure. Talk to your kids about this new feature — it’s important for their mental health.
Check your laundry room: Procter & Gamble is recalling 8.2 million bags of laundry pods made by Tide, Gain, Ace and Ariel from Sept. 2023 to Feb. 2024. A packaging flaw could let the bags split open near the zipper, exposing dangerous chemicals to kids. If you’ve got ’em, return ’em!
Project Venom: Three F-16 fighter jets are getting loaded up with self-flying tech at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida. The $50 million “Project Venom” exists to develop self-flying drone fleets that could team up with manned Air Force planes in battle.
🚨 Don’t take the bait: Scammers are mailing postcards and offering jobs as “Amazon Product Testers.” FYI, the real invites come from “Amazon Vine” — and they don’t pay. Hint: Search for the return address on the card. If it leads to somewhere like a shoe warehouse, it’s probably a scam.
💣 “Ocean’s 11”-worthy: Thieves stole $30 million from a cash storage facility in the Sylmar neighborhood of Los Angeles last Sunday. They snuck in through the roof and blasted their way out through a wall. How’d they get past security? Internet and cell jammers — just like the crooks who targeted my house!
