Prenatal Phthalate Exposure Linked to Lower Attention Spans in Infants
An Emory University study found a link between higher prenatal phthalate levels in mothers and lower attention spans and slower reaction times in their newborns, due to decreased levels of tyrosine and tryptophan, amino acids crucial for brain development and neurotransmitter production.

Traditional African Diet Shows Superior Health Benefits Compared to Western Diet in New Study
A Dutch study of 77 Tanzanian men found that a traditional African diet, rich in grains, root vegetables, and leafy greens, significantly reduced inflammation and improved immune function compared to a Western diet, suggesting it may be more effective at preventing chronic diseases.
