Whether you call it gas, passing wind, or flatulence, farting is a normal bodily function. In fact, the extra gas in your body *must* come out.

It's tough to exist in the modern-day fitness world without hearing mention of "toning." Social media is inundated with quick tips to tone up, while ongoing discourse about thin-but-muscular "Pilates arms" and "legging legs" exposes our collective obsession even further. Touted as one of the most popular fitness goals, toned bodies are impressively (and sometimes unrealistically) high in muscle and low in body fat. But in recent years, the concept of toning has been called into question, with some saying it's technically impossible to "tone" a muscle. So then what are people talking about when they talk about toning? And more importantly — does it even exist?

Wait...Is Toning Even Real? Here's What Trainers Want You to Know

The color yellow is gorgeous, eye-catching, and downright happy for most people. So much so that it's the main hue in the world-famous happy face—but science says it's not the best color to wear on a date.

It's no secret that water bottle culture is big in the US — so much so, that it might come as a surprise to hear that dehydration is super common. If Stanleys and Owalas are as popular as they seem on TikTok, isn't everyone chugging water all day long? And yet, dehydration is rampant (although medical information publisher StatPearls notes that the 75 percent figure you often see cited may be a little overblown). But how can you tell if you're dehydrated?

How to Tell If You're Dehydrated, According to 2 MDs

Editor's note: anyone with a cervix can get a Pap smear, but for this article, we included sources who generally referred to these people as women. Going to the doctor for any type of exam can feel daunting and uncomfortable, especially those that involve your vagina. Not many people enjoy sitting on an exam table with your feet in stirrups while a doctor shines a light between your legs. But if you have a vagina, then you've probably heard that you'll need to start getting regular Pap smears at some point. These tests are considered an important part of vaginal health, making it crucial to actually get them done as needed.

Where were you when you heard about the Paris Poop Protest? If it's here and now, allow us to provide some context. In preparation for open-water events at the 2024 Paris Olympics, the French government spent upwards of $1.5 billion trying to make the Seine swimmable. As a form of protest, Parisians threatened to . . . well . . . poop in the river. This included a viral website and corresponding hashtag reading #JeChieDansLaSeineLe23Juin (I shit in the Seine on June 23).

What is more summery than an icy, sweet frozen drink? If the heat wave is getting to you, try whipping up this simple frozen strawberry lemonade. All you need is your choice of lemonade and some frozen strawberries. You can use store-bought lemonade, make your own from scratch, or a powdered version.

As a plastic surgeon, I see young women come into my office for all sorts of reasons — most often, they're curious about or seeking a breast reduction, breast augmentation, and chin liposuction. While this might shock some, the truth is we've all experienced having things about our bodies that we don't like. It's practically a rite of passage for adolescence. I'm not sure I know anyone who hasn't had braces or Invisalign to straighten their teeth, for example.

The Best Filtered Showerheads, Hands Down

Most of us who engage in heavy alcohol use do so to self-medicate. And we self-medicate because we don’t know how to feel, process, and sit with our uncomfortable emotions. There are many ways to avoid uncomfortable feelings; heavy alcohol use is just one way (among many) to numb out, avoid, or escape. A lot of us who have abused alcohol, myself included, do so to regulate our emotions, or we think we are regulating our emotions through self-medication.
