Secretary of War Pete Hegseth visited Sierra Nevada Corporation at Dayton International Airport on Tuesday, Oct. 20. Bryant Billing / Staff Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth visited Dayton Tuesday, Oct. 20, to declare that those serving on the front line have never depended more on those who toil on the nation’s production lines. Warfighters rely on the technician, the engineer, the welder, the IT professional and their colleagues, Hegseth said in a 24-minute address in the newest maintenance, repair and overhaul hangar built by Sierra Nevada Corp. at Dayton International Airport, in the shadow of a Boeing 747-8i the company has modified for service as an Air Force “Survivable Airborne Operations Center.”“Never forget the direct line you have to those on the front line,” Hegseth told an assembly of hundreds of SNC’s 420 Dayton workers. More workers watched the address remotely from other SNC hangars and offices. The company has built four huge 90,000-square-foot hangars to modify big military planes, adapting them for modern warfare with new communication suites and other upgrades.

A large study involving approximately 7,500 people suggests that eating a healthy diet may help slow biological aging, and there is no single eating plan that stands above all others. Scientists at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE) investigated 10 different dietary patterns, including the Mediterranean, Nordic, plant-based, and DASH diets. The DASH diet was specifically developed to help reduce blood pressure. Every dietary pattern examined was associated with slower biological aging, as measured by chemical changes in DNA that reflect the body's aging process. The findings were first identified using data from DZNE's Rhineland Study and then independently confirmed in another population. The research was published in Nature Communications.

Could a blood test reveal what food questionnaires miss? Researchers examined 67 blood metabolites to investigate how dietary habits and the body's metabolic responses relate to long-term survival.
