Great reed warblers normally migrate by night during its month-long migration from northern Europe to Sub-Saharan Africa. However, researchers have now discovered that during the few occasions when it continues to fly during daytime, it flies at extremely high altitudes (up to 6300 meters). One possible explanation for this unexpected and consistent behaviour could be that the birds want to avoid

The results of an observational study from Lund University in Sweden are clear: up to the age of two, a more fibre-rich diet seems to reduce the risk of coeliac disease. A particularly clear link was seen when children had eaten fibre-rich foods before the age of one. “This is the first time the risk of coeliac disease has been studied based on fibre in children’s diets.
