From Reddit saved post — r/askscience, u/Amazing-Steak, Jun 29 2022 https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/vncqpf/what_does_the_brain_finishes_developing_at_25/ This seems to be the latest scientific fact that the general population has latched onto and I get pretty skeptical when that happens. It seems like it could be the new "left-brain, right-brain" or "we only use 10% of our brains" myth. I don't doubt that there's truth to the statement but what does it actually mean for our development and how impactful is it to our lives? Are we effectively children until then?

From Reddit saved post — r/askscience, u/qxzsilver, Jun 21 2022 https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/vhpihk/why_do_some_people_develop_allergies_with/ I’ve noticed watching documentaries or random videos online as well as medical websites that some people may develop allergies to bee stings after getting stung one too many times. However, some people who harvest honey from bees without any protection (one example is the Gurung people of Nepal) seem to develop immunity to bee stings. Other examples may be exposure to natural stimuli such as pollen, snake bites, certain molds, or food items. How does this happen? What can make someone more likely to develop an allergy vs. more likely to develop immunity?

This is a topic that is near and dear to my heart. I actually have a colleague working on this, who is researching potential treatments for fatigue. It seems as if long-covid is related to mitochondrial function and molecular hydrogen seems to be a low cost treatment for fatigue (look here for more detail https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ardp.202000378).

Or do they float off into warmer waters, then are eaten?
