Companies and institutes are currently working on biotechnological processes for the production of 'dairy products' without the use of cows: In so-called precision fermentation, egg and milk proteins are produced with the help of bacteria, yeasts or other fungi. This results in foods such as milk or cheese with a familiar flavor and texture. Supporters
Using powerful new visualization technologies, researchers have captured the first 3-D images of the structure of a key muscle receptor, providing new insights on how muscles develop across the animal kingdom and setting the stage for possible future treatments for muscular disorders. The connections between the nervous system and muscles develop differently across the kingdom

Researchers found no infectious virus in the sampled pasteurized milk products tested for H5N1. In March 2024, dairy cows in Texas were found to be infected with highly pathogenic avian flu, or H5N1 bird flu, in the first known case of the virus spreading to cattle. Since then, H5N1 has been found in about 200
Multivitamin use and lower risk of early death. This study debunks the common belief that taking multivitamins can significantly reduce the risk of premature death. The findings provide valuable insights for individuals who rely on multivitamins for their health and well-being, emphasizing the importance of a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle choices. This comprehensive analysis challenges the widespread use of multivitamins as a preventative measure against early mortality and encourages a more holistic approach to overall health and longevity
