Sustainable agriculture can benefit the environment but only when food safety and human health are taken into account.
University of Pittsburgh researchers are the first to trace one of those pollutants, nitrogen, along the U.S. beef supply chain at the county level. They found high spatial disconnect between where beef is eaten and where nitrogen’s impacts are felt.
Eating any amount of fish during pregnancy was associated with about a 20% lower likelihood of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis, particularly in females, and a slight reduction in autism-related traits in offspring, according to a new study funded by the Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program at the National Institutes of Health.
Chula Faculty of Allied Health Sciences has launched a ready-to-eat flourless rice innovation made from egg whites, branded as “eggyday”. This product is low in calories, filled with good-quality protein, high in calcium, complete with dietary fibers, and free of gluten.

It takes a community to protect kids with food allergies.
Scientists have developed a new method for crafting intricate microfluidic channels in glass using intense laser pulses. These tiny channels offer exceptional clarity for ultraviolet (UV) light, making them ideal for continuous-flow photochemical reactions like synthesising vitamin D3. The technique paves the way for miniaturized, efficient chemical production methods with promising applications in medicine, materials science, and beyond.
If your children enjoy school-provided lunch and it meets their dietary needs, it can be a safe, cost-effective meal option. But if you want more control over what your children eat during the day, packing lunch at home can be a healthy and convenient choice.
