Why? Because of what it can do and who it’s doing it for. GLP-1 is a hormone naturally produced in our intestines when we eat. It’s part of a family of hormones called incretins, and its job is to help regulate blood sugar by: Stimulating insulin secretion Suppressing glucagon (a hormone that raises blood sugar) Slowing gastric emptying, which keeps us fuller for longer…

Image by Cottonbro Studio of Pexels It’s a debate that’s sparked countless heated brunch discussions, social media posts, and family jokes: Who’s more work—dogs or kids? Dog parents are often quick to point out the early mornings, the constant attention, and the vet bills. Parents of actual human children, meanwhile, just raise an eyebrow and chuckle knowingly, often muttering, “Talk to me after potty training.” But it’s not always a clear-cut answer. Dogs and kids both come with their own unique joys, chaos, expenses, and demands on your time, patience, and sleep. Depending on your lifestyle, age, or stage of…

This is what walking yoga, a new fitness trend, is all about. It’s a mindful practice that allows you to explore the world around you while building strength and flexibility.

If there’s any player in the 2025 NFL Draft consensus big board that I absolutely love, it’s Georgia’s Jalon Walker. An EDGE/LB hybrid, Walker turned his one year starting at Georgia into a season worthy of the Butkus award, notching 6.5 sacks and being the fulcrum of a Georgia defense that could stem fronts and change the picture a lot. Now, Walker enters the NFL as one of the most coveted prospects in the class. In my post-Combine big board he was the 7th ranked player, and will more than likely finish as a top-10 player in this entire draft…
