What helps with menstrual cramps? How does my foot actually work and are the sweat patches under my arms still normal? Scientific findings and discussions about our physical and mental well-being are complex and sometimes not so easy to understand. Especially when they interface with the way we live our lives. After all, everything influences each other: work, nutrition, sporting activities, sexuality, psyche, living space and so on. We break down the latest research findings in an understandable way.

In addition, our editors share their personal experiences with gadgets for body and mind. Among them are light therapy lamps, sleep aids, fitness trackers and massage tools that pamper you from head to toe or, in some cases, even plague you. Exciting interviews with experts and guest articles from "Spektrum der Wissenschaft" included.
