Recent studies suggest that calf raises after eating may significantly reduce post-meal blood sugar spikes, in some cases by as much as 52 percent. This effect comes from activating the calf muscles, which help move glucose out of the bloodstream and into muscle cells where it can be used for energy.

The calves are sometimes called the body’s “second heart” because their contractions help pump blood back toward the heart. When these muscles are activated after a meal, they improve circulation and glucose uptake at a time when blood sugar naturally rises.

Calf raises are simple, low-impact, and require no equipment. They can be done almost anywhere and may be especially helpful for people managing insulin resistance or prediabetes. Small movements like this show how everyday habits can quietly support metabolic health over time.

Whenever you smell that “fresh laundry scent” you’re inhaling toxic chemicals.

Doctors say it is one of the number one indoor air pollutants.

That comforting "fresh laundry smell" may come at a hidden cost to your health, according to Dr. Partha Nandi, a U.S.-based gastroenterologist and professor of medicine.

He warns that the pleasant scent left behind by many fabric softeners is actually a blend of volatile organic compounds (VOCs)—chemicals like acetaldehyde and benzene—that can irritate the lungs, cause skin reactions, and even contribute to long-term risks like cancer.

These VOCs are released into your home and the environment through dryer vents, making fabric softeners a source of indoor and outdoor air pollution.

Symptoms such as coughing, dizziness, and headaches, often brushed off as everyday annoyances, could actually be linked to these household products.

Dr. Nandi encourages a shift to safer, low-cost alternatives like white vinegar, baking soda, wool dryer balls, and homemade dryer sheets. These options not only reduce exposure to harmful chemicals but also lessen environmental impact by cutting down on packaging waste and water pollution. He advises households—especially those with children, pets, or people with chronic conditions—to improve ventilation, use natural products, and remain vigilant about indoor toxins. With indoor air quality increasingly under scrutiny, even a single switch away from fragranced fabric softeners could make a meaningful difference in health and wellbeing.
