Being close to nature and engaging in traditional and spiritual activities is really important for young Indigenous people. These activities boost their overall health and well-being, keeping their cultural heritage alive and kicking. Sadly, historical policies and modern challenge
Think of rats. You might not consider them when thinking of a complicated diet. But did you know that these little creatures can help us learn a lot about how our bodies change when we eat poorly? By eating a high-fat diet, rats can become obese. This is not that surprising, since it is kn
