What seems clear, however, is that the brain of a migraineur (as sufferers are called) is primed to overreact to all sorts of stimuli that most people can easily tolerate. "The brain receives input from a wide variety of triggers--stress, hormones, falling barometric pressure, food, drink, sleep disturbances," says Dr.David Buchholz, a neurologist at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, Md. "Each of us has hisown stack of triggers and his own personal threshold at which the migraine mechanism activates. The higher the trigger level climbs above the threshold, the more fully activated the migraine system...
...flavors are embedded in products. That investment is a sunk cost for fragrance companies; they get paid only when a manufacturer buys the finished product as an ingredient. So IFF makes money on volume. A sodamaker, for example, would buy vats of flavoring for every batch of a popular drink. But unlike other raw ingredients, like corn syrup or carbonated water, flavors are unique. When a flavor or fragrance hits big, IFF scores a guaranteed revenue stream...
...didn't know. Small things we take for granted can be enormous problems in the absence of a little knowledge. Take cholera.

Now, Harvard has its own distinct...
...inclined to wrinkle your nose at the mention of seaweed. Pungent and slimy, it's usually something to avoid at the beach, not your first choice for something to drink, eat or wear. But that unflattering - and undeserved - image is now changing. As a natural resource with unique, health-boosting properties, seaweed is showing up in an increasing variety of products as companies find new ways to market the renewable marine resource. At its ultramodern factory in Brest, France, the laboratory company Science et Mer recently launched its own line of seaweed-based skin creams based on purported anti-aging...
