Plastic Ingestion Causes Unseen Harm in Baby Seabirds
A study in Science Advances reveals that baby seabirds on Lord Howe Island, even with seemingly small amounts of ingested plastic, exhibit liver and kidney dysfunction, stomach lining damage, and neurodegeneration, as discovered through blood analysis of 31 sable shearwater chicks.

Brain's Reward System Drives Excessive Sugar Consumption
A study using mice and human brain tissue found that high-sugar diets activate POMC neurons, releasing beta-endorphin, an endogenous opioid, which triggers a reward response, driving increased consumption. This mechanism was also observed in humans using fMRI.
