The Flying Pig: The marathon of a lifetime

"While stepping to the start line feels thrilling, crossing the “finish swine” feels illuminating. I always love seeing the line of goodies and refreshments the race organizers offer, and reuniting with family and friends for post-race debrief and brunch."



Diet culture and the misinformation about nutrition on social media

"TikTok’s algorithm-driven content prioritizes short, engaging videos filled with buzzwords, eye-catching infographics and emotionally related content, allowing influencers to forsake evidence and credibility for views. This undermines the trust in public health professionals and science-backed interventions."


Culture writer Maria Buzogany shares recipes to spice up your morning coffee.
