The pelvic floor is a key group of muscles at the base of the pelvis. These muscles support the bladder, bowel, and reproductive organs, and they play a crucial role in continence, sexual health, and spinal stability. Many people remain unaware of their function until problems arise. Health professionals note that education about pelvic health is limited across ages, which can delay seeking help.

A recent article from The Guardian, released on 20 May 2025, shines a spotlight on five prevailing myths surrounding pelvic floor care and offers evidence-based insights that could reshape how people in Thailand think about their own well-being The Guardian.

A fresh wave of research and expert analysis confirms what nutritionists have long maintained—there’s no nutritional difference between brown and white eggs, regardless of price or popular perception. As consumers in Thailand and around the world reach for brown eggs, often convinced they’re making a healthier choice, leading scientists and poultry specialists want to set the record straight: the color of an eggshell tells you more about the hen’s genetics than the egg’s nutrients or health benefits, as highlighted in a recent report from Slate and backed by research from sources such as Healthline and the USDA (Slate, Healthline, USDA).

Recent research consolidates a long-standing finding: there is no nutritional difference between brown and white eggs. The color of the shell reflects the hen’s genetics, not the egg’s nutrients or health benefits. Thai shoppers, like consumers worldwide, should focus on freshness and farming practices rather than shell color when choosing eggs. This perspective aligns with analyses from health experts and poultry scientists and is supported by researchers at institutions around the world, including findings summarized by health media and agricultural science reviews.
