SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
If you’ve ever checked yourself in the mirror after a bad night’s sleep and thought, “I look tired”, you’re not imagining things. Studies show that sleep does more than restore energy…it directly affects how your skin looks and how others perceive you. During deep sleep, growth hormone and prolactin help repair tissues, boost collagen, and strengthen the skin barrier, while cortisol drops, reducing inflammation. Lack of sleep dries skin, accelerates aging, and worsens conditions like acne. Studies show even a few nights of poor rest make you appear paler, fatigued, and less attractive, with darker under-eye circles and drooping features. Adequate, consistent sleep supports healthy skin, boosts resilience, and even improves social perception. So that old saying about getting your “beauty sleep”? That’s not just a fairy tale.

DID YA KNOW!?
Did You Know... You’re no longer able to ask ChatGPT for detailed medical or legal advice. OpenAI has updated its policies to clarify that users of ChatGPT can’t use the service for “tailored advice that requires a license, such as legal or medical advice, without appropriate involvement by a licensed professional.” The change comes as more users rely on AI for personal health concerns. A study found only 31% of ChatGPT’s medical responses were fully correct, while other researchers warned the chatbot’s confident tone can mislead users. Doctors say patients now arrive with AI-influenced opinions, underscoring the risks of treating ChatGPT as a trusted health adviser.

SCOOP
OF THE DAY
A report says you are most likely to catch a cold in the first 2 weeks of November.
Jell-O is “shaking up” American Thanksgiving with its new “No Thanks” molds. The limited-edition line turns 3 of the holiday’s most divisive side dishes — brussels sprouts, cranberry sauce, and pecan pie — into playful, wobbly desserts. Each kit includes one themed silicone mold and a box of Jell-O mix. The Brussels Sprouts mold results in a glossy green sphere cluster, the Cranberry version mirrors the ridged cylinder of a canned sauce, and the Pecan Pie mold creates a floppy, crust-free “slice.” With many Americans preferring to skip these sides, Jell-O is taking aim at the trend of ironic, colorful, joy-first food. They’re available now on Walmart.com for $5 each. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/5cydrdvt

WEIRD NEWS
Luxury US grocer Erewhon has launched an $11 TOOTHPASTE-FLAVORED SMOOTHIE — yes, a smoothie that actually tastes like minty toothpaste. Created with oral wellness brand Boka, the Mint Condition Smile Smoothie is meant to freshen your breath while you sip. Inspired by Boka’s Ela Mint toothpaste, the drink blends mint, green tea, coconut milk, mango, and chlorophyll into a creamy seafoam-green mix topped with mint leaves and cocoa nibs. Though it sounds bizarre, early tasters say it’s surprisingly minty-refreshing – like brushing your teeth, yet somehow… delicious. Last year, Grillo’s Pickles teamed up with Boka to launch a limited-edition Cucumber Dill Pickle flavored toothpaste. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/ma4sna73
