Convoy singer C.W. McCall dead at 93 after cancer battle, son says – New York Post

“Convoy” singer C.W. McCall has died at 93. He had been battling cancer and was in hospital care in his Colorado home when he died on Friday, April 1.

6 probiotic foods to support your gut – Livescience.com

Want to know which probiotic foods to eat to improve your health and wellbeing? As well as breaking down foods and absorbing nutrients, the gut has a massive impact on how well the body and mind works. Probiotics are live bacteria in either food or supplement form that can help the digestive system to function more efficiently by improving or restoring balance in the gut microbiome. Research by King’s College London in the UK revealed that what we eat impacts our gut flora even more than genetics. The study pinpointed a group of 15 ‘good’ and 15 ‘bad’ gut microbes that are linked to better or worse health outcomes, including inflammation, blood sugar control and weight.
