Breast cancer is the second-most common cancer in women in the United States, and it’s responsible for about 30 percent of all new female cancers each year, according to the American Cancer Society. With that, screening for this disease is important — and the gold standard is via mammogram. If you’ve never had a mammogram

From the meat dress and her Oscar-nominated role in “A Star Is Born” to her raw documentary “Gaga: Five Foot Two,” Gaga has been making statements and dropping jaws every step of her career.

To a cardio newbie, running can seem incredibly simple to take up. After all, the sport doesn’t involve any fancy equipment, has no set-in-stone rules to follow, and is just a fast-paced version of walking, right? Those ideas are true to an extent.

Green, glorious, and filled with good-for-you ingredients, Trader Joe’s selection of prepackaged salads are the easy lunch staples you’ve been looking for. With everything from vegetarian-friendly options to protein-packed favorites, there’s not a salad here that won’t have even the pickiest eater delighted.

Look, I’m all about the jumping, sprinting, high-impact cardio when I’m exercising outside or in my gym’s studio. But when it comes to working out in my apartment, when one wrong burpee could send me crashing into my downstairs neighbors’ living room? Not the best idea. Recently, I’ve gotten really into doing low-impact cardio workouts

Daydreams are the land of “what ifs.” A combination of imagination and speculation, daydreams are an opportunity for people to emotionally consider what they haven’t yet experienced.

Image Source: Getty / Lionel Hahn Once a day, a friend of mine takes an hour-long mental break from work and walks around her neighborhood, sans headphones. “Must be nice,” I thought as she described this meditative practice, knowing the same would never be awarded to me. Why? Because she is a white woman and

At a friend’s sixth-grade birthday party, I dove off the high board of the community pool and accidentally belly flopped into the water. When I was 15, I jumped off a boat in Lake Tahoe and got caught in the current, causing me to lose my breath and swallow a lot of water. The summer

In the 5 a.m. dawn light, Jennifer Lopez takes off sprinting — like, really hauling ass — down the beach. That would be a tall ask for any celeb for a simple commercial spot (I’m pulling a hammy just watching), but for J Lo, it’s kind of NBD. “I’ve had to perform at a high

In a new behind-the-scenes video from the “Creed III” set, the actor is seen warming up in the ring with professional boxing coach Ann Najjar before filming a fight scene. He

Welcome to the wonderful world of bacteria. This week, legionella is trending after three patients tested positive for it in a Cincinnati hospital. The bacteria causes fever, cough, and shortness of breath, but some cases can cause Legionnaires’ disease, or severe Legionella pneumonia, says Amesh Adalja, MD, an infectious disease physician and a senior scholar

I can’t scroll through TikTok without seeing a video about either Ozempic or buccal fat removal. The videos range from before and afters to Stitches critiquing the popularity of these trends.

Jordan Chiles already has a pretty padded resume, between her Olympic, World, and National champ medals, history-making podium sweeps, and multiple break-the-internet floor routines.

I’ve been a tea drinker for as long as I can remember. I truly love coffee, but I can’t have it for health reasons, so this has turned me into a bit of a tea snob (if there is such a thing). What always surprises me is how many additives companies put into tea, including

In the ultimate inevitability, Ozempic received a mention at the 2023 Oscars.

Although it’s a common occurrence, nothing is stranger than the feeling of having one nostril be completely clogged, while the other is perfectly clear.

Though kettlebells may seem intimidating, know that they are really just a free weight. And most exercises that you can do with dumbbells, you can do with kettlebells.

A lot has changed since I was 13 years old, but not everything. I still believe Kelly Clarkson‘s album Thankful is a work of art, I still think bright blue eyeshadow is beautiful, and I still hate tampons with a fiery, burning passion. In fact, I vividly remember the first time I ever attempted to

Full disclosure: I’m obsessed with tracking down the perfect journal. I am a stationery fanatic and spend way too much time carefully researching planners that will (hopefully) organize my life, one page at a time. Every journal I’ve tried has helped in its own way.
