TOPEKA, Kan. — As consumers worry about medication costs, states are trying to lower drug prices by reining in big companies that oversee prescription coverage for health insurers. Some of those companies, called pharmacy benefit managers, also own pharmacies, and one of them, CVS, has spent millions of dollars fighting the regulations.

While fatty stools, or steatorrhea, are a telltale sign of EPI, people with IBS are less likely to see this.

Astronomers have identified two of the fluffiest giant planets ever discovered, with densities so low they are actually less dense than cotton candy. The rare pair of “super-puff” planets was found by an international team led by the University of Oxford, working with Université Côte d’Azur/Observatoire de la Côte d’Azur and the University of Birmingham. The findings were published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. The newly confirmed planets, TOI-791 b and TOI-791 c, orbit an F7-type dwarf star about 1,110 light years from Earth in the southern constellation Volans. Although each planet is about the size of…

That means he’ll likely be leading a Democratic caucus with more self-described Democratic Socialists than ever before. So far,…
