Bad breath isn't just an awkward situation before a date or meeting - it can be a subtle sign that there's a bacterial drama going on in your mouth. The kind of internal revolution where the losers aren't just your social contacts, but your oral hygiene too. And we're not talking about a little musty morning breath - we're talking about a real, scientifically-backed stench that results when certain bacteria decide your mouth is the perfect venue for their sulfurous opera.
At a time when spirulina, matcha and seeds that Google still needs to explain are staring at us from the shelves, a more "homegrown" superfood is quietly flourishing in the background - the black olive. Small but mighty. And, surprisingly, it is not imported from Hawaii or Peru, but grows almost next door - in Dalmatia, Istria and elsewhere.

And the secret is not in a miracle potion or a genetic lottery, but in a simple philosophy called Ikigai.
Headache. Do you often wake up in the morning with a headache? What could be the cause? When the morning starts with a headache – it's not a good sign!

Forget about miracle pills and expensive supplements – sometimes the best solutions are so simple that we almost overlook them. Cloves and cinnamon are two natural treasures hiding right in your kitchen. Together, they form a combination that can boost your immune system, improve digestion, stabilize blood sugar, and even revitalize your skin. And the best part? It’s easier to make than ordering a coffee on your way to work.
How many times have you tossed and turned in bed, staring at the ceiling and counting sheep, squares on the wall, or even ex-lovers who kept you awake? Sleep has almost become a luxury these days – in the age of blue screens, chronic stress, and caffeine heroism (read: coffee at 6 p.m.), quality rest is turning into a real luxury. And when even Netflix's top 10 list fails as a sleep aid, we start Googling things that sound like the title of an alternative medicine book from the 90s.
Forget ice baths and those ugly air boots from physiotherapy. The Nike Hyperboot is here – smart, hot and compressive. Yes, compressive. And your ankle will love it.
Who would have thought that the key to better sleep is a piece of fabric that grandma would sew for a sunshade?
