Three people have been hospitalized and at least seven sickened after taking a trendy supplement sold on Amazon and TikTok. The FDA said the patients were infected with a dangerous strain of salmonella, a potentially deadly bacteria, that is resistant to standard antibiotics. Moringa powder is made from the crushed leaves of the moringa tree, a plant native to India that has previously been described as the 'miracle tree' for its alleged health benefits. In the recall, bottles included have a best-before date between March and November 2027. In its notice of the investigation, the CDC said it had interviewed three patients, all of whom reported consuming Rosabella-branded moringa powder before suffering from an infection.

The legendary wide receiver has spent his entire 12-year career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But on Tuesday, Evans' agent told ESPN that he will return for the 2026 season, even though it remains to be seen where the 32-year-old will end up. Evans is the Bucs' all-time leading scorer, having amassed 114 touchdowns over the past 12 seasons in Tampa Bay. Should he want to play elsewhere, Evans must wait for the free agent negotiation period, which begins on March 9. Only then could Gilmore talk with other teams, with Evans free to officially sign elsewhere from March 11.

Thirty years ago, the board of the hospital considered moving to a general hospital site (Connolly Hospital in Blanchardstown). Recently, the Rotunda has expanded its city centre footprint, with HSE and Dublin City Council support, and acquired buildings in Cavendish row, North Earl Street and Dominick Street. (The Rotunda hospital canteen serves the best hospital food I personally have experienced and it is one of the cleanest hospitals I have ever visited.) The revised plans were approved by Dublin City Council on July 31st, 2025. The neonatal intensive care unit is so overcrowded that critically ill infants, or high risk pregnant mothers, regularly have to be transported to another site for care.

Sir, – It is no surprise UK politicians have a jaundiced view of Irish defence and security capacity (“‘A bunch of freeloaders’: Increasing UK pressure on Ireland to invest in defence”, February 16th). Our performance in this field of policy has, since independence, been abysmal. Needless to say the plans were never resourced and we drifted into the “Emergency” utterly unprepared. The UK and our EU partners rightly expect us to take the security of these islands and Europe seriously. The Atlantic alliance is no longer fully underpinned by the US, and our neighbours and trading partners are increasingly worried that Ireland’s lack of capacity, particularly in naval and air capabilities, constitutes an enormous weakness in European security.

Speaking in August, he told talkSPORT: “To be honest, I had a night out with Jack in the summer over in Marbella.

For an island once dotted with mills, Ireland’s relationship with flour has become strangely distant. Two centuries ago, it is estimated that as many as 7,000 mills operated across the country. In modern Ireland, in 2026, we are left with just one industrial-scale flour mill. That is why news that the Government is to financially back new flour mills in Ireland marks a welcome change of direction. Many Farm Exam readers will remember the closure of Ireland’s last sugar beet factory and the devastating impact on growers.

A new industry-supported research collaboration has been launched to develop animal feed analysis techniques tailored specifically to Irish pastures and silages. The three-way collaboration project between VistaMilk Research Ireland Centre, Teagasc Grassland Science Department, Goldcrop and FBA Laboratories aims to deliver rapid, accurate feed nutritive value analysis to support data-driven decision-making across Ireland’s pasture-based livestock sector. A key output will be the integration of advanced forage analysis results with PastureBase Ireland, creating a dedicated database and dissemination tool to support the sharing and practical use of feed nutritive value data at both farm and industry levels. Speaking on the collaboration, Grass and Forage development manager of Goldcrop and Pasture Innovations, Pat Cashman, said: “Accurate, timely feed analysis is a cornerstone of good grassland management. Director of FBA Laboratories, Conor Butler, said: “Robust forage nutritive value data is central to farm management, sustainability and long-term competitiveness, particularly in pasture-based systems where home-grown forage quality directly influences animal performance, nutrient use efficiency and farm profitability.

Lewis Hamilton was cheekily asked whether he is 'all loved up' amid his relationship rumours with Kim Kardashian by fellow Formula One driver George Russell. That didn't stop Mercedes driver Russell, though, from boldly asking the 41-year-old a pointed question about Kardashian while mic'd up for F1's pre-season photoshoot. The TV star shares children North, 12, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and Psalm, six, with her ex-husband. He wrote: 'How Kim Kardashian and Kim Jones have come together on SKIMS, the way Lil Nas X is transforming the music industry, and artist Maya Lin’s groundbreaking approach to her art.'

Now, Met Éireann has extended a Status Yellow rain warning issued for today to cover 17 counties. Our tardiness in addressing critical infrastructure projects, climate change and inadequate weather alerts is having serious consequences for communities. It found climate change made the flooding over three times more likely to occur, acting as a “force multiplier”. Although global warming is widely acknowledged to be a driver of the climate change which is causing such hardship, the Government has yet to publish its updated national Climate Action Plan. We hardly need leprechauns to remind us climate change is here – and it demands attention.
