    Feb 9 2026
    According to a 2019 report from eharmony, a third of relationships had started online between 2015 and 2019, compared to just 19% in the preceding decade. The so-called “Future of Dating” also suggested that by the year, more than half of relationships will have begun online. Whether you're seeking a serious relationship or just a casual fling, there's something out there for everyone. As with any constantly evolving market, dating apps have turned into a real business, and the quest for love can come with a hefty price tag.

  • What's the best way to choose my toothpaste?

    What's the best way to choose my toothpaste?
    Feb 9 2026
    Choosing the right toothpaste can be a bit of a challenge, either because there's a plethora of options or because you might have specific requirements. It's not always clear what these products contain, whether it's advisable to steer clear of certain toothpaste, or if the organic versions are just as effective. The main goal is to tackle dental plaque before it turns into tartar, preventing issues like cavities, bad breath, and bacterial infections. According to tooth-doctor.com, a crucial factor for toothpaste effectiveness is the fluoride content. This trace element strengthens enamel and helps prevent cavities, with the recommended concentration varying based on age and individual cavity risk. The NHS suggests that “toothpastes containing 1,350 to 1,500 parts per million fluoride are the most effective” for adults and children over 7. What's in toothpaste? So, what should one go for?

  • Why do we get screen apnea?

    Why do we get screen apnea?
    Feb 9 2026
    It’s pretty common knowledge that office workers across the world have a sedentary lifestyle, which is linked with a whole host of potential health problems. But did you know that most of us also unconsciously hold our breath when staring into an electronic screen? The phenomenon was discovered by former Microsoft executive Linda Stone back in 2008, who named it email apnea. While she did a lot of breathing exercises at home, she realised those went out the window when she was in front of her computer screen looking through her emails. Fast forward to the 2020s and it’s not just emails that cause us to hold our breath. Laptops and smartphones are now part of our everyday lives, meaning we spend more time than ever before using electronic devices. What’s going on in our bodies when this happens? What are the health effects? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: What are lucid dreams? What are primitive reflexes?

  • What household products should I avoid?

    What household products should I avoid?
    Feb 8 2026
    Cleaning can feel satisfying, but did you know many household products might actually harm your health? A 2021 Which? study revealed that nearly half of common UK cleaning products contain potentially dangerous chemicals. Even those labeled “eco-friendly” or “for sensitive skin” aren’t always safe. Preservatives like Methylisothiazolinone and Benzisothiazolinone are known to cause allergic reactions, while others may disrupt hormones or affect reproductive health. And then there’s bleach—a go-to for many households, but a major contributor to indoor air pollution and respiratory problems. So how can you clean safely without risking your well-being or the environment? Or my health ? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

  • Could mate poaching be a threat to your relationship?

    Could mate poaching be a threat to your relationship?
    Feb 8 2026
    All romantic relationships come with challenges, and one of the biggest hurdles tends to be fidelity. Over the years, there have been a number of studies on the prevalence of cheating, but it’s tricky to know how reliable data from those studies is. After all, it relies on people owning up to unfaithful behaviour. Generally speaking though, surveys from the likes of YouGov have suggested that around one in five people in the UK have had an affair at some point in their life. Why don’t these mate poachers just look for someone who’s actually available? Is there any way to spot a “mate poacher”? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
