With summer on the horizon, consumers across the country are likely stocking up their freezers with cold treats to help them beat the impending heat. But if you recently picked up a pint of ice cream from the popular artisanal brand Van Leeuwen, you might want to check the label before digging in. The company announced a voluntary recall this week for a certain lot of its Brown Sugar Chunk French Ice Cream because it contains an undeclared allergen: walnuts. More than 4,000 pints of this flavor–which were distributed at retailers nationwide–are subject to the recall. RELATED: 12 Major Food Recalls…

I am a Direct Support Professional and work with adults with brain injury. I work 30 hours a week with the support of Vocational Rehabilitation Services. I see a job coach weekly to…

It’s long been accepted that the part of the brain called the primary motor cortex controls body movements. Certain groups of cells direct specific movements — for example, of the feet, hands or tongue. The cells of the primary motor cortex are organized as a type of topographical map of corresponding body parts in the central sulcus, a fold in the brain’s outermost layer called the cerebral cortex. Mayo Clinic scientists and their international collaborators were surprised to find that this understanding was incomplete. They discovered this map extends from the brain’s surface deep into the central sulcus but is…

If you’re like me, you’re also piling your dog high with pickles, onions, and maybe even the occasional jalapeño pepper.

The tonsils play an essential role in keeping you healthy. These small, oval-shaped pads at the back of the throat are part of the immune system and make white blood cells. These cells attack and prevent germs that enter your body and making you sick. While small in size, the tonsils can cause considerable pain and discomfort if inflamed. This inflammation is called tonsillitis and typically is due to a viral infection, although bacterial infections can cause tonsillitis as well. Children are more susceptible to tonsillitis than adults for a few reasons. First, they’re constantly surrounded by germs at day…

Waking up feeling refreshed can be elusive for us mouth breathers. We, unfortunately, tend to deal with the not-so-pretty reality of rolling out of bed with issues like a dry mouth and scratchy throat, chapped lips, and drowsiness that may follow us into the afternoon. That’s because your mouth can’t filter and humidify air the way your nose does, so sleeping slackjawed can dehydrate and irritate your mouth and throat. It can also obstruct your upper airway, which can cause snoring, wake you up throughout the night, and generally lower your quality of rest—oh, and not to mention it could also lead to tooth…

Company culture matters. In fact, it’s one of the most significant factors that younger generations consider when deciding to stay at or apply for a job.Unfortunately, it’s also something managers may neglect until it starts to cause problems. If their approach centers around pain points, issues are likely addressed as they arise, while their causes are ignored. Doing so may create a cycle of recurring crises that scare away applicants and wear down existing employees, ultimately harming retention and productivity.These conditions favor the development of a toxic work environment, which can seriously undermine your company’s success. Many employees won’t tolerate these environments…
