The study, published in PLOS ONE, reveals that 50% of analyzed lakes in New Brunswick still contain hazardous levels of DDT, which persists in lake sediments and cycles through the food web, posing long-term risks to ecosystems and public health.

Short sleep (<6 hours) raises coronary disease risk by 23%, while poor sleep quality doubles hypertension odds; women face an eightfold stroke risk under 5 hours.

A JAMA Network Open study found six chemical categories (nicotine metabolites, VOCs, metals, ethylene oxide, glycidamide, acrylamide) in blood/urine correlate with higher depression risk. These toxins — found in food, cleaning products and furniture — trigger systemic inflammation, disrupting brain function and mood regulation. Younger individuals and men show heightened susceptibility, explaining rising depression rates in males.
