Intestinal health, especially dysbiosis, has become a popular topic on social media, with celebrities like Mônica Iozzi and Gabi Brandt sharing their experiences with gastrointestinal problems.

The research sheds new light on the diversity of shark communities that swam in ancient oceans.
The family of Lito Sousa, a 59-year-old influencer hospitalized at Hospital Albert Einstein with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, a rare and degenerative neurological condition with no known cure, has asked that visits be restricted to relatives and close friends.
