Scientist have built a better Scotchgard. This is a good thing since the old Scotchgard stain repellent involved perfluorooctanic acid, a chemical with an unfortunate tendency to accumulate in the environment and possibly have some nasty effects on mammalian physiology.
Also, the primary source of antioxidants in the American diet is coffee. The reseachers say that, of all the food and beverages studied, dates actually have the highest concentration of antioxidants per serving. However, coffee comes out on top as a dietary source because few people have a 5-cup-a-day date habit.
