πŸ”¬ Cottage cheese hype: Is the protein claim legit?

Cottage cheese is trending as a high-protein food, but scientific backing for muscle gain is limited. Research does not directly examine its effects on muscle mass or body weight. Its appeal stems from its slow-digesting casein protein, which promotes fullness. Some studies show it causes more insulin release than other proteins, but this isn't fully clear. The science is promising, but the trend is currently outpacing the hard evidence.

♻️ Old fishing nets become a cool footbridge in England

In 2024, a 16-metre footbridge was built in Kent, England, using recycled old fishing nets. The Environment Agency constructed this innovative structure at Twyford Marina in Yalding, utilizing lightweight engineering principles. This 3.5-tonne bridge features a fibre-reinforced polymer deck and was completed in 2024. The modular, Lego-like construction significantly reduced concrete use and required smaller foundations. This project showcases how circular economy meets pragmatic engineering for public use. ♻️

🌳 Warehouse plans scrapped near historic battlefield

An industrial project covering 192,560 sq ft was approved on 22 acres near Monmouth Battlefield State Park in New Jersey in 2024.
