Lithium is what we in psychiatry call a ‘dirty’ drug. This has nothing to do with its efficacy or side effects, but rather means that it works by hitting many different pathways in the brain. (A ‘clean’ drug works by hitting one particular pathway. In other words, easier to explain.) Lithium for bipolar works first by reducing the transmission of excitatory messengers, notably dopamine and glutamate. It also increases the amount of inhibitory messengers such as GABA. In other words, it calms the brain. Alas, not as simply as all that. Lithium also effects what we call ‘second messenger’ systems, the primary method of communication from nerve cell to nerve cell. In other words it tends to stabilize cell membranes and reduce ‘cascade’ events, such as mania. Lithium also reduces oxidative stress in the brain by promoting the presence of protective proteins. In this way it is somewhat neuroprotective against cognitive decline. This all sounds well and good, but unfortunately lithium’s acti...

ACCRA, March 5 (Reuters) - Ghanaian cocoa farmers worry they have not been paid for deliveries, even after the regulator released funds to buyers to ‌settle arrears and support the struggling sector. The Ghana Cocoa Board, or COCOBOD, said last week it had released 3.62 billion cedis ($336.74 million) to Licensed Buying Companies (LBCs) to clear outstanding payments owed to farmers dating back to November 2025.

The disbursement, made following a directive from the finance ministry, was intended to facilitate prompt payment to farmers and improve liquidity in the cocoa sector. But farmers and purchasing clerks say the money ⁠has yet to reach them, raising questions about whether the funds are instead being used to service debts owed by cocoa buyers to banks. COCOBOD did not immediately reply to a request for comment. "We have still not been pa...

When you think of Denmark, you probably think of super cool street style and hygge homes filled with cozy lighting and sleek Scandi design. But as it turns out, the Danes also have the art of the high protein breakfast down to a science—literally. According to a recent Danish study, eating the classic Nordic breakfast combination of skyr yogurt and oats can drastically improve your wellbeing and your day. “We found that a protein-rich breakfast with skyr (a sour-milk product) and oats increased satiety and concentration,” explains Mette Hansen PhD, associate professor at the Department of Public Health at Aarhus University. The 2024 study followed 30 women between 18 and 30 years old for three days, during which their hormone levels and satiety were measured after eating three different types of breakfasts: a protein-rich breakfast of skyr and oats, a carbohydrate-rich breakfast of whole grain bread and raspberry jam, and no breakfast at all. The conclusions were clear: the...

Ben Jones accepts a certain amount of frustration is part and parcel of being a football fan. But that should be because of the action on the pitch, not because he can't use his mobile phone to call a friend in the stadium, or check the progress of other critical games. "It's going to affect things so much, if this team wins, if that team draws…" says the creative director from North London. "So, to then go on your phone and find that you can't even get a bar? It's crazy." Connectivity, over mobile and fixed networks, is critical when people come together at sports tournaments, cultural festivals, or business events. When it fails venue operators and fans suffer One of the UK's newest sports stadia is Everton's Hill Dickinson Stadium. The connectivity in the stadium was developed with HPE Aruba.
