SEATTLE, WA, Jan 8, 2025 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – In just a few short years, the next seismic shift in the global economy could come from a technology that’s still unfamiliar to most: quantum computing.Sean Brehm, founder and CEO of CrowdPoint Technologies, believes quantum computing is poised to become the foundation of the modern economy.

SINGAPORE, Jan 3, 2025 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – People often associate the end of the year as a time to wind down, slow down and get into the New Year celebration mood – but surprisingly, around the world, research has shown that stress levels actually increases during the holiday season, with year-end work deadlines, last-minute shopping, loneliness, and increased travel commitments as a large contribution to the additional pressure. With 87% of Singaporeans already experiencing high stress levels throughout the year, the number spikes further as the close of the year creeps in.In the post-pandemic era, research has proven that there is an intrinsic link between stress, immune function, and vulnerability to illnesses. The higher stress one faces on a day-to-day basis, the weaker the immune function becomes. Increased social interactions, feasting and late nights also causes a strain on the immunity and overall well-being of individuals.For example, the prevalence of leisure sickness, falling ill …

WINCHESTER, ENGLAND, Jan 3, 2025 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Millions of people try vegan diets each January as part of the global Veganuary campaign. In 2024, roughly 25 million people sought a fresh start for their health and the environment through vegan diets.

Now however, veterinary Professor Andrew Knight is calling for Veganuary to be extended to pets.Writing in The Conversation, Knight notes that dogs and cats may also experience health benefits associated with vegan diets: “By late 2024, 11 studies in dogs, three in cats, and one systematic review covering both had all demonstrated that dogs and cats thrive on modern vegan or vegetarian diets. Certain health benefits appear consistent, such as a reduction in obesity and of conditions that may be triggered by animal-sourced allergens, like itchy skin and ears and gastrointestinal problems.” However, he notes that “all diets, including vega…
