The gross reason experts say you should never go to bed with wet hair

Sleeping with wet hair could lead to unexpected problems.
Skin and hair experts agree that going to bed before drying your hair can lead to troublesome scalp issues — and even hidden bacteria in your bedsheets.
Briana Delvecchio, a hairstylist at Ashley Lauren Beauty Lounge in New York, shared in an interview with Fox News Digital that she always advises her clients against sleeping with wet hair for several reasons.
THIS DAILY BEAUTY ROUTINE COULD BE RUINING YOUR HAIR, EXPERTS WARN
When hair is wet, the hydrogen bonds in the strands are temporarily broken, making it more elastic, fragile and prone to breakage, she cautioned.
«Combine that with friction from your pillowcase, and it’s a recipe for split ends, tangles and long-term damage,» Delvecchio said.
The scalp «also takes a hit,» she added, as a damp scalp trapped against a pillow overnight creates a warm, humid environment that’s ideal for fungal growth and bacterial buildup.
«This can trigger scalp irritation or dandruff, or eve..

Just one hot dog a day could raise disease risk, study suggests, but some cite caveats

A new meta-analysis from the University of Washington suggests that no amount of processed food is safe to consume.
Researchers analyzed 77 different studies to gauge the link between certain amounts of these foods and common chronic diseases.
«Habitual consumption of even small amounts of processed meat, sugary drinks and trans fatty acids is linked to increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, ischemic heart disease and colorectal cancer,» lead study author Demewoz Haile, a research scientist at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington, told Fox News Digital.

«There is no safe level of habitual consumption of these food groups, so they should not be included in our daily diet,» he stated.
For processed meats in particular, the researchers concluded that eating as little as 0.6 to 57 grams per day was linked to an 11% greater likelihood of developing type 2 diabetes.

The Big Budget Bill Could Make Your ER a Mess

For many of us, summer means attending backyard barbecues, laughing with neighbors and friends, watching kids chase fireflies, and enjoying fireworks lighting up the night. But in a split second, that can all change. Your daughter trips, gashing her knee on a rock. Your dad, laughing one moment, clutches his chest the next. Suddenly, you’re racing to the emergency room—confident it’s open, staffed, and ready.

That’s the unspoken promise of our health care system: when the worst happens, an ER will be there, no questions asked.

[time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”]

But that promise is about to become harder to keep. A quiet policy change tucked into the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” cuts the provider tax nationwide from 6% to 3.5% over the coming years. That might sound like easy-to-ignore bureaucratic jargon, but for families across America—who trust the ER will be there when a fever spikes or a bone breaks—this change will likely mean dramatically longer waits, overwhelmed doctors, and ..

Which Is Worse for You: A Hot Dog or a Hamburger?

They’re the stars of summer cookouts, but when it comes to your health, which is the bigger nutritional offender: the hamburger or the hot dog?

They share many similarities; both are processed, protein-packed, and often loaded with toppings. But there are clear differences, too. Here’s what registered dietitians say about the burger vs. dog debate—and which one might be the lesser evil on your plate.

[time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”]

Hot dog vs. hamburger

Experts agree that the answer depends on several variables like portion size, preparation method, toppings, and quality of ingredients. However, there are some general nutrition differences that make hot dogs the less favorable option overall.

“In general, hot dogs tend to be more processed than hamburgers,” says Tamar Samuels, a registered dietitian and co-founder of Culina Health, a virtual nutrition platform. “They’re often made from a mix of lower-quality meat cuts and additives, including sodium nitrate and other preservati..

‘I’m an ER doctor — these are the injuries I see most on 4th of July’

For most Americans, the 4th of July is marked by patriotic celebrations with family and friends — but for some, the festive holiday can end with an unplanned trip to the emergency room.
More than 45,000 people visit the ER on July 4 and 5 each year, according to the Pew Research Center — which means Independence Day has the year’s highest number of daily medical emergencies.
«This time of year, we see big increases in traumatic injuries and heat-related illness,» Dr. Ryan Marino, M.D., an ER doctor and associate professor at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio.
BEACH BACTERIA WARNINGS PLAGUE FOURTH OF JULY WEEKEND PLANS NATIONWIDE
«While fireworks accidents and injuries get most of the attention, there are far more falls, broken bones, head injuries and car accidents, just to name a few.»
As people are more likely to be outside and active during the holiday, that makes them more prone to accidents and injuries, Marino added.

Abortion Is Legal in Maine, but Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ Could Gut Much of the State’s Reproductive Health Care Access

Sweeping cuts in President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” targeting abortion providers threaten to drastically reduce access to a wide variety of sexual and reproductive health care services in Maine—even though the state has protected reproductive rights.

Two organizations—Planned Parenthood and Maine Family Planning—that serve roughly half of the patients in Maine’s entire sexual and reproductive health care network are at risk of being excluded from receiving Medicaid payments thanks to a provision in the tax and spending package, which narrowly passed the Senate on Tuesday and now faces a vote in the House. The provision would prohibit Medicaid funding for any health care services provided by Planned Parenthood and Maine Family Planning for one year.

Medicaid is a state-federal program that provides health insurance coverage for more than 70 million people from low-income households across the country, including hundreds of thousands of..

Is Taking a ‘Fart Walk’ Good for Your Health?

What you once knew as an after-dinner stroll has been rebranded a “fart walk” on social media—and the trend is having a moment. Fans of the so-called fart walk—a short stroll taken up to about an hour after eating a meal—claim it aids digestion and relieves GI symptoms like gas and bloating. But what do doctors think?

New name, old concept
[time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”]

“Feeling bloated after a meal is common,” says Dr. David D. Clarke, a clinical assistant professor of gastroenterology emeritus at Oregon Health & Science University and president of the Association of the Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms. That’s because people eat too much, or they eat too quickly and swallow excess air, or they drink beverages with dissolved gas in them like soda or beer.

[video id=h1w9nutE autostart="viewable"]

To counter symptoms like these and help relieve gas naturally, walking after dinner can help, doctors agree. Walking can enhance the muscle contractions of the gastrointestinal tract—..
