Fennel seeds are considered appetite suppressants since they help you remain fuller for longer (thanks to their high fibre content). This may also help you achieve your weight loss objectives and avoid overeating.

Arsenal on the Kyiv city metro line (Sviatoshynsko - Brovarska Line) is currently the world's deepest metro stop. It is 105.5 meters deep. Escalators transport you deep underground so that you can catch the train. Arsenal had to be 105.5 m deep because it had to bypass the Dnieper River, which rises above and surrounds Kyiv. You will ride the escalator for five minutes to reach 105.5 m deep down the station.

Prehistoric peoples' diets consisted of raw meats, roots, leaves, and other foraged foods. To cut up these tough foods, as well as catch, dismember, and consume them, strong teeth were required. Having extra teeth was a huge benefit, especially when there was no dentist nearby to keep teeth healthy. People have evolved since then, and we now have a more refined menu. This means that we don't require these extra teeth to eat tough foods and survive.

The yo-yo was invented in Greece in 500 BC, according to information I found during my research. The yo-yo is commonly thought to have originated in China, but it was first recorded in Greek history.

The massive book tour that surrounds publication is probably the largest fallacy propagated by television and movies about the publishing industry. Most authors do not have the name recognition to necessitate a multi-city reading tour. J.K. Rowling, Roxane Gay, David Sedaris? They can all sell hundreds of volumes in a bookstore or an auditorium. A first-time author from a tiny town? Not at all. This has nothing to do with the actual quality of their work; it's merely a publicity stunt. So, if you see an author you enjoy speaking at a library, reading at a bookstore, or participating in a demonstration near you, go! Support them in person!

Iguanas have a sensory organ called Jacobson's organ that allows them to detect smell, taste, and chemical signals. Iguanas learn about their environment and other lizards/people in this manner. When your iguana licks you, it's trying to figure out who you are.

In addition to repelling insects, Tulsi leaf extracts can be applied to bug bites and stings to relieve discomfort. They also significantly minimise edoema and resulting discomfort. Furthermore, Tulsi helps to detoxify the blood on a daily basis.

The other 97.7% are ethnically Chinese. This is because Taiwan was ruled by the Qing Dynasty for 200 years from 1683 to 1895. During this time, the locals were pushed out in the same way native Americans, Canadians, Australians and New Zealanders were by Europeans. This isn’t an upbeat Taiwan fact but it’s important to know.

Nowadays, there are just 500,000 indigenous people made up of eight different tribal groups. Sadly, their 26 native languages have become almost extinct. Unemployment rates are high and education levels low. However, since the 80s there has been a bit of a revival and several cities host indigenous cultural events. Will it be enough?

Ladakh is home to a specialist in the creation of fake glaciers. Chewang Norphel, a retired civil engineer, saw a little brook had frozen beneath the trees. Soon after, he became involved in waster shed development and built more than 15 artificial glaciers. His longest glacier was over 1000 feet long and could support a whole settlement of 900 people.

The Netherlands has one of the highest home birth rates in the developed world. Around 30% of Dutch women deliver their babies at home, and this figure has changed little since 1990. 

So why are home births still cherished in the Netherlands? It’s partly because Dutch health insurance fully covers home births, but doesn’t always cover hospital births without medical necessity. 

The Dutch medical system also has a good screening system and provides midwives (verloskundige) who help mothers have a safe delivery at home.

2012 was a golden time for Apple. Because there are reports saying that Apple has sold about 3, 50,000 iPhones per day in 2012.

Many Buddhists, believe it or not, possess cars, houses, jewelry, and other items. "Because so many vocal Buddhists in America are practicing monks or wealthy individuals shunning consumerism to go meditate," says Wasserman, "we assume all Buddhists are like that." "Travel to a Buddhist country, and you will not see people abandoning the worldly world, but rather, like other religions, praying to win the lottery or be prosperous," he adds.
