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.

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

There's a whole genre of music called relaxation music.

It's also called meditative binaural music because it includes sounds recorded in stereo and sometimes sign tones with a beating pattern called binaral beats.

But is all that any more relaxing than some gentle Chopin?

Researchers attempted to answer that question by sitting 30 people, aged 18 to 80, in a comfy chair, one at a time, with noise-canceling headphones on.

On a desk in front of them was a slider, on which they could indicate their changing levels of alertness versus relaxation, as the researchers played new-agey calming music.

The subdued Chopin, or a more lively piece by Mozart.

Based on the slider info, the participants were all jolted into alertness by Mozart's strings, regardless of age,

and the relaxation music was indeed a relative chill pill, but not any more of one than the

showpan. And in a post-listening survey, only listeners in their teens and 20s describe feeling

slightly more sedate when listening to harps and birds chirping in stereo.

All of which suggests that relaxation music, while effective, doesn't have any unique

soothing powers compared with peaceful classical music. And that's true, even when the relaxation

music has binaural beats. The study is in the journal of music therapy. Still, the scientists

say the new relaxation music has its advantages. It's got fewer cultural connotations than classical

music, which could be preferable in, say, a hospital waiting room. And if you're trying to relax

before bed, the new stuff is probably not as likely to get stuck in your head.
