NPR - Rubbing animal fat on your skin may not sound appealing, but it has become a popular skincare trend. Some claim that using rendered beef tallow as skincare can help clear up acne, benefit dry skin, and even make you look younger.....Dermatologists warn that not everything edible is suitable for the skin.
NBC News - When 22-year-old Cole Schmidtknecht tried to get a refill on the inhaler prescribed by his doctor, the medication that formerly cost him $70 was priced at more than $500, his family said. Five days later, he had a severe asthma attack, stopped breathing and collapsed. He never regained consciousness.
The price change was part of the insurance system that many Americans don’t know about. Schmidtknecht’s parents say the dysfunctional system, which allowed for a medication price change overnight and without notice, is to blame. In the first story of an NBC News series on the health care and insurance industries, Schmidtknecht’s parents, Bil and Shanon, lament how their son’s death was “so preventable and so unnecessary” — and how they’re fighting for change.
