Beef tallow, a type of rendered fat, was a staple in America’s home and fast-food kitchens for much of the 20th century before falling out of favor because of its high levels of saturated fat. Now, it’s making a comeback. What changed?

Up to half of adults in the United States snore regularly -- and their partners often suffer. For the @nytimes.com, I asked experts what could actually help the sleep-deprived partner of a snorer get some rest. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/04/w...

When you cook an egg, the heat that solidifies its whites and yolks kills pathogens like salmonella and bird flu. That’s why food safety officials recommend cooking eggs until both parts are firm. But how unsafe are runny yolks really? I asked experts for @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/02/19/w...

Is It Safe to Eat An Egg With a Runny Yolk?
It’s hard to beat a yolk-soaked breakfast sandwich. But undercooking your eggs carries real health risks.

A reader asked: "I recently learned that I’m lactose-intolerant. Do I really need to avoid all dairy, or are some products safe to eat?" Some dairy products are easier to digest than others. Here’s how to identify the ones that may cause the least trouble.

Half of US adults are eligible for GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic. (That's more than the population eligible for statins!) But are these medications always effective? Could doctors test patients to gauge their likelihood of responding? www.precisionmedicineonline.com/biomarker-di...

Is There a Role for Precision Medicine With GLP-1 Drugs?
As the popularity of drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro soar, researchers, doctors, biotechs, and diagnostic firms see a role for biomarkers to guide their use.
