A poll of 2,000 adults found Georgians eat the highest percentage of drive-through dinners, gridlock-lunches, and bumper-to-bumper breakfasts.

Time for a gut check. Cases of colorectal cancer are on the rise, surpassing breast and brain cancer as the leading cause of cancer deaths among adults under 50. But earlier diagnoses could soon be possible thanks to a recent discovery — in which scientists also confirmed that a single diet choice makes a major difference in your risk. It’s long been suspected that our gut microbiomes are closely linked to colorectal cancer. Now, a study published in Cell Host & Microbe has identified a strong microbial signature associated with colorectal cancer — one that appears to be consistent across…

Trees in China that were planted as part of huge reforestation projects appear to grow faster than those in natural forests, a new study finds. This is possibly because the reforestation trees are responding more strongly to the rising atmospheric carbon dioxide, scientists say.China is quickly turning green. The country has planted 66 billion trees since 1978, with plans for 34 billion more by the middle of this century, as part of its “Great Green Wall” to slow the spread of the Gobi and Taklamakan deserts.These new forests absorb large amounts of CO2, but it is unclear exactly how they…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Senate Republicans are taking closed-door conversations online to snipe at one another over stalled voter ID and citizenship verification legislation. President Donald Trump wants Republicans to pass the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act, but the political reality in the Senate, albeit through extreme measures that don’t have unified support among the Senate GOP, makes passage unlikely. Still, that has not stopped Trump, supporters online, and key proponents of the legislation in the Senate from pushing the message that the SAVE America Act can pass, but only if Republicans have the guts to…
