- "Fortnite Battle Royale didn't just capitalize on a fresh, wildly popular genre; it also made the battle-royale experience more accessible. It's free (PUBG isn't), it became available on consoles at a time when PUBG was PC-only, and its cotton-candy aesthetic and relatively simpler gameplay make it far more kid-friendly than the bleak, military-inspired Battlegrounds."
- "As a result of this accessibility, Fortnite spread like wildfire. The game now boasts more than 45 million players, raked in $126 million in revenue in February 2018 alone and regularly nets roughly 200,000 viewers on Twitch. Everyone from NFL players to famous actors are playing it."

Real shungite is 98% carbon, and has trace amounts of fullerenes, a type of carbon molecule that supposedly blocks electromagnetic frequencies. These pieces of jewelry or ornaments often have a much lower percentage of carbon than advertised and even lower amounts of fullerenes. There isn't much scientific evidence backing these claims, and researching shungite primarily brings up New Age-y articles spewing quackery, with no citations to actual studies or research. The 5G stickers supposedly generate some kind of shield to protect you from 5G waves. Let us be clear: A sticker that claims to generate any type of radiation-blocking shield is pure science fiction.

Saturated fat
Keep in mind:
- "A meta-analysis of prospective epidemiologic studies showed that there is no significant evidence for concluding that dietary saturated fat is associated with an increased risk of CHD or CVD. More data are needed to elucidate whether CVD risks are likely to be influenced by the specific nutrients used to replace saturated fat."
