Here are some of the best signs from the 2020 Women's March. Today, protesters around the country united for the 4th annual Women’s March, where women and allies rallied in support of reproductive rights, immigrant rights, gun reform, climate justice, and more. Protests were held in cities like Washington, D.C., New York City, and Los Angeles. 

  

 At one point, protesters gathered to perform the global feminist anthem ‘A Rapist in Your Path’ in Washington, D.C.. The song was first written and performed during national protests in Chile last year and has since been sung around the world. 

 In New York, Evelyn Yang opened up about surviving sexual assault and why she decided to speak out. Evelyn, who is married to Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang, first spoke about being abused by her OB/GYN in an interview with CNN.

 Some of the signs spotted at the protests included phrases like, ‘So much wrong, so little poster’ ‘Public Cervix Announcement: F*ck the patriarchy’ ‘Does this ass make my country look small?’

Can Coffee Cut a Woman's Stroke Risk?

#Stroke  #Coffee #WomensHealth #HealthNews #Research A Swedish study shows even a cup a day reduces the risk; Experts say more proof needed Women who have at least one cup of coffee -- or even five cups -- daily may be reducing their risk of stroke by as much as 25 percent, new Swedish research shows. And women who don't drink coffee at all may actually be  increasing  their risk for stroke, the researchers noted. However, the researchers added, these findings are preliminary and should not cause any change in coffee-drinking habits. "Results from our study in women showed that consumption of 1 to 5 cups of coffee per day was associated with a 22 to 25 percent lower risk of stroke, compared with consumption of less than 1 cup a day," said lead researchers Susanna Larsson, from the National Institute of Environmental Medicine at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm.
