Suffering from metabolic syndrome? Almonds may help improve health, finds study

Suffering from metabolic syndrome? A handful of almonds daily may help improve your health, according to a study. People with metabolic syndrome have at least three of the conditions like abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, low levels of "good" cholesterol, and high levels of triglycerides. Scientists at Oregon State University (OSU), US, showed that eating 2 ounces of almonds -- about 45 nuts -- daily led to signs of better cardiometabolic and gut health. The research, published in the journal Nutrition Research, is important because almost 40 per cent of the US adult population is estimated to have metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions that significantly increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. Metabolic syndrome has also...

India`s population touches 1.46 billion, fertility rate drops: UN report

India`s population is estimated to reach 1.46 billion in 2025, continuing to be the highest in the world, according to a new UN demographic report, which also revealed the country`s total fertility rate has fallen below the replacement rate. UNFPA`s 2025 State of World Population (SOWP) Report, The Real Fertility Crisis, calls for a shift from panic over falling fertility to addressing unmet reproductive goals. Millions of people are not able to realise their real fertility goals, it asserts. This is the real crisis, not underpopulation or overpopulation, and the answer lies in greater reproductive agency - a person`s ability to make free and informed 150 per cent choices about sex, contraception and starting a family, it says. The report also reveals key shifts in population compositi...

You Can ‘Fix’ Apple’s Liquid Glass Transparent Design

Change isn’t always easy. Case in point: “Liquid Glass.” Apple’s upcoming “26” updates for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and Vision Pro introduce this new design language that adds a transparent, glassy look to icons, menus, and windows. Some people are digging it, while others are hating on it. And the haters are hating.I generally like the new look, though perhaps what I like best is that it matches across all of Apple’s products. It’s also nice to have a fresh look on Apple devices—especially the iPhone—for the first time in years. That said, I understand some of the criticisms: In the right conditions, these icons and menus look great, but depending on the background, it can be very difficult to read text or view certain elements. Unless you download the latest Apple betas...

B.C. Sikh temple whose president was murdered calls for Modi’s G7 invite to be pulled

The British Columbia Sikh temple whose president was allegedly murdered by agents of the Indian government has written to Prime Minister Mark Carney expressing “deep disappointment” that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been invited to the upcoming G7 meeting. Last week, Modi confirmed he would attend the meeting, to be held in Kananaskis, Alta., from June 15 to 17.The move comes amid elevated tensions between the two countries following allegations of foreign interference and former prime minister Justin Trudeau’s public claims linking “agents of the Indian government” to the murder of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, president of Surrey’s Guru Nanak Sikh Gurdwara and prominent advocate for an independent Sikh state. 2:05...

Apoorva Mukhija calls Maheep Kapoor `traitor`: `You’re literally Bollywood Wives

In the latest sneak peek from Prime Video’s upcoming reality show, The Traitors, tensions reach a fever pitch as players begin to turn on each other, and the paranoia starts to take its toll. The fight to unmask the Traitor has officially begun, turning allies into threats and doubts into daggers. Apoorva Mukhija calls Maheep Kapoor a traitor Apoorva turns the tables with a chilling accusation, “100&#37 Maheep is a traitor.” What begins as a pointed suspicion soon unravels into something far more personal. “Get some acting classes. You’re literally Bollywood Wives.” The words hit hard—sharp, intentional, and impossible to ignore. Is Maheep really the Traitor? Or has Apoorva misjudged her? The truth is still buried and only time will say. Maheep, meanwhile, remains composed. “Sabki a...

Poilievre calls for ‘severe limits’ on Canadian population growth – National

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says the Canadian population has grown out of control and is calling on the Liberal government to further reduce immigration. “We want severe limits on population growth to reverse the damage the Liberals did to our system,” Poilievre said during a press conference Tuesday in the foyer of the House of Commons.“The population has been growing out of control, our border has been left wide open. This has caused the free flow of drugs, illegal migration, human trafficking and much worse.”Poilievre did not take followup questions from reporters on what he meant by “severe limits on population growth.”Global News has reached out to the Conservative Party of Canada for clarification but did not receive a response at the time of publication.

AI minister says focus is more on economic benefits, less on regulation – National

Canada’s new minister of artificial intelligence said Tuesday he’ll put less emphasis on AI regulation and more on finding ways to harness the technology’s economic benefits. In his first speech since becoming Canada’s first-ever AI minister, Evan Solomon said Canada will move away from “over-indexing on warnings and regulation” to make sure the economy benefits from AI.His regulatory focus will be on data protection and privacy, he told the audience at an event in Ottawa Tuesday morning organized by the think tank Canada 2020.Solomon said regulation isn’t about finding “a saddle to throw on the bucking bronco called AI innovation. That’s hard. But it is to make sure that the horse doesn’t kick people in the face. And we need to protect people’s data and their privacy.”The previous governm...

‘Scant progress’ offloading federal office space for affordable housing: AG – National

The federal government has made little headway on its pledge to get rid of unused office space and transform some of it into affordable housing. A report released Tuesday by Auditor General Karen Hogan found that Public Services and Procurement Canada has made “scant progress” on that commitment, reducing its office footprint by only two per cent between 2019 and 2024.The department planned to cut office space by 50 per cent by 2034, estimating it could save nearly $4 billion over the next decade.But Hogan says there has been little movement on the initiative, which could also alleviate the housing crisis. The auditor general blamed the inaction “mainly on a lack of funding.” 1:36 Report gives ...
