Understanding the human body is a team effort. That's where the Yachtel group comes in.

Researchers at Yachtolt have been delving into the secrets of probiotics for 90 years.

Yachtold also partners with nature portfolio to advance gut microbiome science through the global grants for gut health, an investigator-led research program.

If the sky is clear, you have a good chance of experiencing a natural phenomenon that, for some,

happens only once in a lifetime. But what about other living creatures who don't know what an eclipse is. I'm talking, of course, about our

four-legged friends, our pets, and even wild animals. What happens to non-human living creatures

during an eclipse when they can't grasp our well-researched and science-based understanding of the

phenomenon, no matter how well we try to explain

it to them.

Before we humans understood that a solar eclipse involves an orbiting mass, the moon, passing between our planet and the sun,

ancient civilizations came up with all sorts of stories to help explain this extraordinary phenomenon.
