Collagen in your body aids in the prevention of free radical oxidation in your skin. When free radicals are oxidised, they can cause skin damage and pigmentation. On the other hand, if free radicals outnumber collagen levels, they can inhibit collagen production and harm healthy skin cells. To avoid this problem, increase your intake of antioxidants to neutralise free radical levels in your body.

This horrific reality is the outcome of US airstrikes on Laos during the Vietnam War, when the US unleashed more than two million tonnes of bombs throughout Laos for nine years, from 1964 to 1973. Because 30% of these bombs did not explode, most of Laos' soil is unfit for agriculture. Hundreds of Laotians are still injured or murdered as a result of unintentionally finding bombs and grenades.

Sand is combined with lime and soda ash and heated to extremely high temperatures to create glass. Glass is produced when the liquid combination is allowed to cool again.

That is correct. They can transition from one gender to another at any time. The switch is determined by which is most suitable for mating at the time.

An accountant told us that he loves his work because as long as he follows his checklist, he knows he’s doing a good job. A professor hates rules and needs to set his own agenda. They both do their jobs well, but they’d be disasters in the other’s position.

Many people are unaware of how intelligent pigeons are. They may be taught to recognize words and to match art with its artist, but perhaps most importantly, they can be taught to distinguish between benign and cancerous growths. Researchers at the University of California, Davis, trained pigeons to distinguish between benign and malignant biopsies. The pigeons were able to "diagnose" brand new biopsies that they had never seen before after being trained how to differentiate between the two. A pigeon by itself had an accuracy of 85% on average. Their accuracy as a group approached 99%, which is expected of a doctor.

At one time, Sudan was lush and green along the Nile and even tourists from the UK would vacation in Wadi Halfa in Sudan. Today, it is a dried-up mess thanks to the damming of Lake Nassar.

Exceeding this number is extremely rare, because becoming close to new people causes the quality of some older relationships to deteriorate over time

For a period, astronomers referred to 55 Cancri e as a "super-Earth." A super-Earth is a planet that is far larger than our own—in this example, twice the size. 55 Cancri e is so near to its star that it orbits it in just 18 days, despite being 40 million light-years away in the Cancer constellation. One of its most astounding attributes, because to its proximity to its star, is its temperature, which registers a stunning 4,900 degrees Fahrenheit (2,700 degrees Celcius). That heat, along with the density of 55 Cancri e, led scientists to hypothesise that the planet's core was composed of carbon in the form of diamonds and graphite.
