An Israeli digital health start-up called Healthy.io has developed an FDA-cleared at-home smartphone urinalysis test to help people test their kidneys for proteins, a sign of damage to the organ.

Early detection makes an enormous difference in avoiding complications from kidney disease.

According to the CDC, oil of lemon eucalyptus could be a much safer and more natural weapon than DEET. It's easy to say you'll never use DEET, that is until you come down to South Carolina.

A woman who licked a tub of ice cream before putting it back in a supermarket freezer could face up to 20 years in prison, according to US police. Police are working to confirm the identity of a female suspect, seen outside a Walmart branch in Lufkin, Texas, around 11pm on 28 June, before issuing an arrest warrant on a charge of second-degree felony tampering with a consumer product. That charge carries a sentence of between two and 20 years in prison, along with a potential fine up to $10,000 (£8,000), according to the Texas penal code.

I suggest for your due diligence the Defiance 5G Next Gen Connectivity ETF (FIVG) as a way to gain good exposure to the major players and major trends within the 5G world. I like that it is laser-focused on this particular area. FIVG is a brand-new ETF. It launched on March 4th in the wake of Goldman Sachs’ barrage of five “future economic trends” ETFs that same week. While I surveyed all five of the Goldman offerings, I find them too broad-brush in their approach.
