When type 2 diabetics drank a small cup of chamomile tea after their meals for a few months, they got significant improvement in long-term blood sugar control compared to drinking the same volume of warm water or when pitted head-to-head against black tea. And the side effects? All good——lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, a decrease in inflammation, and improved sleep, mood, and antioxidant status. Chamomile tea and green tea appear to share the same mechanisms for blood sugar control: blocking the transport of sugars through the intestinal wall. [2023] - Michael Greger

Light sleep represents the state between being fully conscious and either being in deep sleep or dreaming. In light sleep, we're usually unconscious, but some people can retain a sort of awareness during this state. Light sleep can be further subdivided into state N1 sleep and stage N2 sleep. N1 sleep represents the transition from wakefulness to sleep. In a normal night of adult sleep, only about 5% of the night is spent in this state. N2 sleep represents a deeper stage of light sleep. Almost half of an individual's night is spent in N2 sleep. [2017] - W. Chris Winter

Photos should focus on your waist up, unless you have amazing legs. Then it's okay to include one or two full-body shots in your gallery. The majority of your photos should be closer up, highlighting your face. Don't stage a smile. Instead, try to laugh just before the shot is taken. Flirty smiles that don't look cheesy also work. Make eye contact with the camera. Aim to take most of your photos outdoors. [2013] - Amy Webb
