Satisfactory substitute for a kiss?

The researchers attached electrodes to the heads of volunteers, and a heart rate test instrument, and compared the heart rate of examinees while eating dark chocolate, while a kiss and at rest.

The study found that chocolate actually caused the strongest reaction, as more than a kiss, and doubled the heart rate of the subjects. Although the kiss accelerated heartbeat, the effect did not last long as after eating chocolate, which led to accelerated heart rate from 60 beats per minute to 140.

The research further revealed that when the chocolate began to melt in the mouth, brain activity was more powerful than when Occurred during the kiss. The researchers noted that all responses were similar in men and in women.

CBD Cannabis oil is able to kill antibiotic-resistant bacteria

Research: CBD has been able to kill “antibiotic-resistant” bacteria "Bacteria", such as those that have developed resistance to commonly used antibiotics, pose a threat to modern medicine in the fight against infections. New research shows that cannabidiol (CBD) may have the potential to be used as a new type of antibiotic to which the bacteria are not immune. With evolution, bacteria have become immune to certain types of antibiotics being used against infections - a fact that is a major threat to the future of medicine and worries researchers around the world. Such a bacterium, which has developed resistance to several different types of antibiotics, is known as a "Super Bug", and the concern is that one day bacteria will develop to be resistant to all known antibiotics so that they cannot be treated. Scientists from Australia who have tried to find possible solutions to the problem believe that cannabidiol (CBD), the major non-doping cannabinoid in cannabis
