Depression and mental illness are the two new diseases which cause many deaths every year. Some experts believe that both genders are affected by depression in equal numbers, but women are more likely to be diagnosed with this disorder, in part because men are less likely to talk about feelings and seek help for mood problems. It also may be that depression shows up in different ways in men — for example, like substance abuse or violent behavior.

This presents a particular dilemma for intelligent guys since they tend to spend their time on productive, socially-respectable activities.

But in reality, it’s your hands that give away the lier in you. Researches have shown that when telling a lie people are generally more focused on lying and have fewer hand movements. But some people also have habits of scratching their different body parts while telling a lie.

Among several foods smells tested, only chocolate had a significant calming effect on the brain—and only real chocolate at that. Neil Martin, a psychologist at Middlesex University in Enfield, asked 60 volunteers to sit in a “low-odor room”, wearing goggles and headphones to block out other stimuli, while he wafted smells their way. He used EEG (electroencephalography) to record their brain waves as they sniffed. Volunteers who caught the smell of chocolate correctly were calmer than who didn’t.
