Did you know that the process of digesting food burns calories? Protein burns the most calories of the three macronutrients (carbohydrates, protein, and fat). According to research, boosting protein consumption temporarily increases metabolism by 15 to 30 percent. A protein-rich diet, on the other hand, promotes healthy amounts of lean muscle mass, which raises the basal metabolic rate. Lean meats like chicken and fish, as well as dairy, whole grains, beans, lentils, and nuts, are also good sources, according to Cederquist. Spread protein consumption throughout the day for the best results.

The monkeypox virus causes the rare disease monkeypox. It causes a rash as well as flu-like symptoms. It is a member of the orthopoxvirus family, like the more well-known virus that causes smallpox. Monkeypox was found in 1958 after two outbreaks of a pox-like disease in research groups of monkeys. It is primarily transmitted by human contact with infected rodents, but it can also be transmitted through skin-to-skin contact with an infected person. Monkeypox virus has two recognised kinds (clades): one that arose in Central Africa and one that originated in West Africa. The less severe West African clade is responsible for the current global outbreak (2022).

Noel Odell, an adventurer, was the first to uncover marine fossils on Mount Everest in 1924, proving that the Mount Everest area was formerly covered by an ocean. The summit's limestone and sandstone were discovered to be submerged sedimentary rocks produced roughly 450 million years ago. Geologists believe Everest has only been a mountain for around 60 million years, when the Indian Plate was subducted by the Eurasian Plate, generating the Himalayas. If that's the case, Mount Everest must be growing quicker than in the past, as it would only take around 2 million years for Everest to rise 8,848 meters at current rates of 4 mm/year.
