Swiss Mice Discover the Secret: IPAs Are Hoppy and Healthy!

Samstags-Lektuere



Achtung beer lovers! A new study has our favorite Swiss researchers raising their steins in a toast. It turns out, those delicious India Pale Ales (IPAs) we love might be even better than we thought!

Scientists in Switzerland (naturally, the land of precision and punctuality) put a group of strapping Swiss mice to the test. These brave little rodents enjoyed a moderate amount of IPA for a month, while their buddies sipped on water or just hops.

Here's the hoppy news: the IPA crew, along with the hop heads, showed no signs of DNA damage!** **That's right, their tiny Swiss bodies were happy and healthy. **

So, what does this mean for us humans? Well, while mice aren't exactly miniature versions of ourselves, this study suggests that enjoying IPAs in moderation might not be so bad after all. In fact, the researchers say the hops in IPAs might even have a protective effect!

So next time you crack open a cold IPA, you can raise a glass not just to the delicious taste, but also to Swiss science and those brave little mice who did their duty for the good of beer drinkers everywhere! Prost!

New Swiss study on ticks finds nearly all carry pathogens 18/11/2023 BY  LE NEWS   LEAVE A COMMENT A recently published study shows 84% of ticks collected in urban areas and 77% of those in rural areas in Switzerland contained at least one non-viral pathogen in addition to a number of viruses. Almost every tick has the potential to make you sick, said Cornel Fraefel, a virologist from the University of Zurich who was involved in the study. Photo by Erik Karits on Pexels.com Researchers collected and tested a total of 10,286 ticks from rural and urban areas in ten Swiss cantons in 2021 and 2022. The most common bacteria found were from the Rickettsia group. These pathogens can cause a whole range of diseases that can cause fever, chills and headaches and were found in 70.8% of the ticks.
