Read previewA professor of the senses, who used to help multinational food companies create ultra-processed foods, lost weight without trying after he cut them out of his diet when he learned about their health risks. These hyper-palatable foods contain the perfect fat-to-carbohydrate ratio, which makes it near impossible for us to stop eating them, Smith said. "I was consciously cutting out ultra-processed food because of the bad things it might do for my health. He felt more energetic, full for longer, and able to stop eating when he felt full. "You're not going to persuade people to move away from ultra-processed food by telling them it's bad for them.

CNN —England reached its second successive European Championship semifinals after a 5-3 penalty shootout victory over Switzerland at Euro 2024 on Saturday after the quarterfinal had ended 1-1. Trent Alexander-Arnold scored the decisive penalty to seal the win for England as it booked its spot in the final four having lost in the final at the last edition of the tournament. Nothing could separate the two teams in extra-time and so the game went to penalties. Switzerland’s first penalty from Manuel Akanji was saved by Jordan Pickford and that miss proved pivotal as England’s players dispatched their attempts with aplomb. England will face the Netherlands or Turkey in the semifinals, with the two team’s facing off later on Saturday in Berlin.

In the summer of 1964, Italian fishermen recovered an antique bronze statue from the seabed off Italy’s Adriatic coast. It reappeared in the gallery of a Munich art dealer who dated it to around 400 B.C.

In May, the European Court of Human Rights upheld Italy’s right to seize the statue.
