| How our bodies interact with our minds in response to fear and other emotions Posted: 07 Apr 2013 06:15 PM PDT New research has shown that the way our minds react to and process emotions such as fear can vary according to what is happening in other parts of our bodies.  |
| Widely used filtering material adds arsenic to beers Posted: 07 Apr 2013 03:35 PM PDT The mystery of how arsenic levels in beer sold in Germany could be higher than in the water or other ingredients used to brew the beer has been solved, scientists say.  |
| Do cells in the blood, heart and lungs smell the food we eat? Posted: 07 Apr 2013 03:35 PM PDT In a discovery suggesting that odors may have a far more important role in life than previously believed, scientists have found that heart, blood, lung and other cells in the body have the same receptors for sensing odors that exist in the nose. It opens the door to questions about whether the heart, for instance, "smells" that fresh-brewed cup of coffee or cinnamon bun.  |
| Reducing waste of food: A key element in feeding billions more people Posted: 07 Apr 2013 03:35 PM PDT Families can be key players in a revolution needed to feed the world, and could save money by helping to cut food losses now occurring from field to fork to trash bin, an expert said.

| Ready for debut: Fruit-juice-infused chocolate with 50 percent less fat Posted: 07 Apr 2013 10:29 AM PDT Already renowned as a healthy treat when enjoyed in moderation, chocolate could become even more salubrious if manufacturers embraced new technology for making "fruit-juice-infused chocolate," a scientist says.  |
| Fetal exposure to excessive stress hormones in the womb linked to adult mood disorders Posted: 07 Apr 2013 06:08 AM PDT Exposure of the developing fetus to excessive levels of stress hormones in the womb can cause mood disorders in later life and now, for the first time, researchers have found a mechanism that may underpin this process.  |
