Cost of running an electric blanket compared to a portable heater as temperatures plummet
The Mirror examines the cost-effectiveness of using an electric blanket versus a portable heater in the UK, where energy bills have risen significantly. A 60W electric blanket costs approximately £12.48 annually when used for two hours daily, while a 120W version costs about £25. In contrast, a 2kW portable heater costs around £416 per year for the same usage. The article emphasizes that these devices are for personal warmth and not a replacement for central heating, which is necessary to prevent issues like condensation and black mold. The Energy Saving Trust suggests lowering the thermostat by one degree celsius to save up to 10% on heating bills.

First 'warning signs' of MS that show up to five years before diagnosis are subtle symptoms
The article discusses a recent study that has identified early 'warning signs' of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) that can appear up to five years before an official diagnosis is made. These signs are subtle symptoms that may not be immediately recognized as indicators of MS. The study's findings suggest that there is a pre-symptomatic phase of the disease where individuals may experience certain symptoms that could alert healthcare professionals to the risk of MS. The article emphasizes the importance of early detection and the potential for these findings to improve early intervention strategies. It also highlights the need for further research to understand the progression of MS and to develop better diagnostic tools.
