This article looks at when you can expect symptoms to improve, why you may feel extra hungry, how to spot hidden gluten, and what to do about nutritional deficiencies.

Health Benefits of Chocolate Chocolate has a long tradition of being viewed as having health-enhancing effects on the body. Modern research on cocoa, the dried seed that makes up chocolate, indicates that it has positive cardiovascular and neurological effects on the body. These benefits are thought to come from flavanol compounds within cocoa. Specifically, preliminary research suggests that cocoa may: Lower blood pressure Help to reverse insulin resistance Decrease blood cholesterol levels Slow age-related memory decline...

Nonetheless, local and federal law enforcement in Arizona have been alarmed by recent reports of people, some of them armed, watching 24-hour ballot drop boxes in two of the state’s counties. This has raised concerns about voter intimidation by MAGA-linked groups during the midterm elections. So how worried should voters be? Newsweek has spoken to election experts and their message is: Don’t be intimidated. While expressing serious concern over the reports, they are urging voters not to let “a small faction of extremists” scare them away from exercising their democratic rights—and warn that exaggerating the problem may be playing into the hands of those who want to discredit midterms results....

The prime minister called a snap election back in mid-August, which left a short election campaign period, with the hope of capitalizing on his government’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic to secure his next term. However, Trudeau’s Liberal Party failed to claim a majority of seats in government, 14 votes short of the 170 needed for a majority in the House of Commons. In a tweet on Tuesday, Trudeau wrote: “Thank you, Canada—for casting your vote, for putting your trust in the Liberal team, for choosing a brighter future....

On Monday she kept her winning streak going, giving her the second-longest streak in Jeopardy! history. She’s already banked well over $1,000,000 and sits comfortably in the top ten highest total winnings of all time. With all of the accolades already achieved, how long does Schneider have to go before she can claim to be the greatest Jeopardy! player of all time? Here’s what she needs to do before she can lay claim to the title....

The Duchess of Sussex used a letter to Congress to describe a childhood defined by financial challenges, adding: “Even at five bucks, eating out was something special, and I felt lucky.” However, Thomas Markle hit back saying the duchess did not only eat from the salad bar and also visited top restaurants in Los Angeles. He told U.K. newspaper The Sun: “She’s never, ever, ever had to worry about anything like that in her life....

Could these tiny oil glands at the edges of the eyelids be clogged or just not performing as they should? From examining the glands and the secretions they release to looking at the tears themselves, here’s what to expect when in the midst of a diagnosis for a meibomian gland issue. Self-Checks While there’s no kit you can buy or quick checks you can make in the mirror to alert you that you may have a meibomian gland dysfunction, you can determine if what you’re feeling is consistent with typical complaints....

The Knicks were one of the most frequent recipients of Jordan’s dominance, getting eliminated by his Bulls five times without ever claiming a series. Jordan dealt punches New York has yet to shake off, contributing heavily to Hall of Fame big man Patrick Ewing’s lack of rings. In addition to the talent the Knicks boasted at the time, Madison Square Garden and the aura of basketball in the Big Apple perhaps elevated Jordan’s showings against the franchise....

Features By examining some of the primary unique features of a pediatric migraine — ones that differ from adult migraines — you can better understand the condition so your child can get a proper diagnosis and relief. Gender The misconception that a migraine is a predominantly female disorder has hindered the diagnosis of migraines in males, especially considering the fact that prior to puberty, boys are more likely than girls to experience migraines....

That means nearly every contest that takes place will have some sort of impact on the standings, playoff picture and Play-In Tournament race. On Monday, March 21, there were nine games of NBA action and almost all of them had playoff or Play-In implications. Take a look below at how each game affected the playoff picture.

“The sale of the club will not be fast-tracked but will follow due process,” he said in a statement issued through the club’s official website. “I will not be asking for any loans to be repaid. This has never been about business nor money for me, but about pure passion for the game and club.” He added that with the net proceeds from the sale he would be setting up a charitable foundation “for the benefit of all victims of the war in Ukraine [which] includes providing critical funds towards the urgent and immediate needs of victims, as well as supporting the long-term work of recovery....

“There’s no secret. They’re going to put him in every single pick-and-roll,” Jason Kidd told reporters midway through the Mavericks’ second-round series against the Suns. “They did the same thing with Dirk [Nowitzki], until Dirk participated and stood up for himself.” Doncic seems to have taken that challenge to heart this year. After being a liability defensively for much of his career, he feels that he’s improved on that end of the floor....

That makes answering legitimate financial questions about the company a bit of a mystery. LaVar Ball has publicly announced different valuations for the company at different times since its founding in 2016, with each dollar amount not appearing to have much real backing. And with Lonzo and LaMelo Ball both creating space between themselves and BBB, the company doesn’t appear to have a lot of upward momentum since its re-launch in February....

The kick hooked wide left, however, and No. 17 Texas’ Big 12 championship hopes ended with a 23-20 loss to No. 13 Iowa State on senior day at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. The Longhorns were close, but that has been the four-year narrative with coach Tom Herman. The ensuing result was a little too familiar.

For example, if you have symptoms of urethritis or cervicitis but test negative for gonorrhea and chlamydia, your healthcare provider may presumptively treat you for MG. This is because MG is the most common cause of urethritis and cervicitis next to the other two, more familiar diseases. There are times, however, when it is necessary to pinpoint mycoplasma as the cause, and it’s not always a straightforward task. Self Checks Because of its frequency in adult populations, MG is almost presumed to be the cause of urethritis (inflammation of the urethra) or cervicitis (inflammation of the cervix) when gonorrhea and chlamydia have been excluded....

Self-Checks and At-Home Testing You may suspect you have peptic ulcer disease if you experience stomach burning, bloating, heartburn, and nausea. Stomach burning is considered to be the most prevalent symptom of peptic ulcer disease, and you’ll notice it’s worse on an empty stomach, between meals, or at night. Certain acid-reducing medication may temporarily relieve symptoms but may return—especially if you smoke or use nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen often—which is typically a red flag that you may be dealing with peptic ulcer disease as opposed to general heartburn....

Neither Prince played the sport publicly last year because of the coronavirus pandemic, but prior to that the two brothers had competed alongside each other every summer since 2007. The Guards Polo Club in Windsor used to be such a regular haunt that when they missed a summer event in July 2007, the Liverpool Daily Post remarked that fans were forced to “make do with Hollywood royalty.” Prince William was back at the club without his younger sibling on Friday as he kicked off a weekend of sport by playing in the Out-Sourcing Inc....

Though the Eagles may count A-List actors such as Bradley Cooper, Will Smith and Kevin Hart among their fans, one of the team’s most famous past supporters comes from a different realm of celebrity altogether—the British monarchy. Princess Diana was well-known to have an affinity with the U.S, with reports around the time of her 1997 death at the age of 36 suggesting she was even considering relocating to California....

While there is no cure for psoriatic arthritis, symptoms are often manageable with medications, good lifestyle habits, and specialized approaches like phototherapy. Surgery may be considered if there’s significant joint damage. Treatment of psoriatic arthritis is ideally overseen by both a rheumatologist (a healthcare provider who specializes in arthritis and like diseases) and a dermatologist (a healthcare provider who focuses on skin disorders). PsA is a progressive disease that, if not properly treated, can lead to a reduced quality of life and possible disability....

The Monarch faced an onslaught over four days last week starting on Friday when U.K. website Politico published leaked details of Operation London Bridge. The codename relates to preparations for the day the queen, now 95, dies and Prince Charles becomes king. Civil servants are expecting huge crowds, travel chaos and for London to become “full” for the first time ever, Politico reported. It described how the Prime Minister and Cabinet will meet Elizabeth’s coffin at St Pancras Station and, perhaps most interestingly of all, Prince Charles’ will tour Britain within the ten days before the funeral, showing the country there is a new king....
