Fibermaxxing is the new food trend of 2026. It is like proteinmaxxing, where you try to get maximal protein in every meal, only for fiber. Brands are taking notice and will soon be selling new products with extra fiber.
PepsiCo’s CEO said this last year: “I think fibre will be the next protein.”

Lead: The Nuclear Point of No Return

Well friends, the U.S. may use a nuclear weapon in Iran today.
In a news conference with military leaders on Monday, President Trump reiterated his deadline with Iran and said that “the entire country can be taken out in one night and that night might be tomorrow.”
How do you take out an entire country in one night? One obvious answer is a nuclear weapon, but let’s hope that’s not what he meant.
Former Defense Secretary Robert McNamara famously said that nuclear weapons serve no military purpose whatsoever. Their only purpose is to deter your opponent from using them.
If Iran does not have a nuclear weapon, is it acceptable for the U.S. to use one against them because they refuse to open a critical global trade route?
Reminder: that Iran threatened to do this if attacked, so this was a predictable and avoidable escalation.
Iran has rejected President Trump’s ultimatums and presented their own conditions. They are not seeking a ceasefire. Instead, they want guarantees that the war will end permanently for Iran and its allies, that Israel withdraw from Lebanon, and that the U.S. lift all sanctions.
They have also proposed a $2 million fee for passage through the Strait of Hormuz, framed as reparations for damage to their country.
The U.S. is unlikely to accept this. President Trump said in his press conference that he ended President Obama’s Iran nuclear deal because it was bad for Israel. So, if you didn’t already know, this is a war being fought for Israel, which means that it cannot end and the U.S. cannot accept those terms.
This is the scenario McNamara warned about decades ago: “The indefinite combination of human fallibility and nuclear weapons will destroy nations.”

Researchers admit that youth suicide prevention isn’t working and…they don’t really know what they’re doing. Translation: this is experimentations on our kids.
In a new JAMA Pediatrics piece, researchers acknowledge that suicide rates are rising, especially among younger kids, and that they don’t have strong proof most interventions are actually effective.
They call it an “evidence paradox.” That means that the highest-risk kids are the hardest to study, so the kind of proof the system demands will never exist.
So why do experts continue to push programs without clear evidence they’re changing outcomes?
And here’s the part people notice but don’t say out loud: as awareness campaigns and interventions have expanded, suicide rates have also climbed. That doesn’t prove causation, but it does at least raise the question!
JAMA doesn’t take on that question, but they do make one thing clear: we’re doing more than ever, with less certainty than you’d expect and the numbers are still moving in the wrong direction.
You do what you want in your family, but in ours, we opt our children out of suicide discussions at schools, doctors offices, and other places for this very reason.

8 months. That is how long until Warner Bros. will release Dune: Part Three but the studio says that IMAX tickets are already selling out because people are excited that the film was actually shot in IMAX. Who buys movie tickets for December in April!?
248,655 miles. That is how far NASA’s Artemis II mission flew from Earth, breaking the record for the farthest human travel. Allegedly.
50 years. That is how long the New York Department of Health has advised not to eat fish from the Hudson River due to pollution. They now say that it is safe to eat some species such as goldfish, succulent black crappie and brown bullhead. Goldfish?
