Just two days of oatmeal cut bad cholesterol by 10%
Eating nothing but oatmeal for just two days might sound extreme, but it delivered a striking payoff in a new clinical trial. People with metabolic syndrome who followed a short, calorie-reduced oat-based plan saw their harmful LDL cholesterol drop by 10%, along with modest weight loss and lower blood pressure. Even more surprising, the cholesterol benefits were still visible six weeks later.

Several Android apps have made sounds in the last few weeks while all sounds have volume at zero (ringer, text, media, etc)
I gave volume override permissions only for alarms, CGM, and PagerDuty

But Lyft making a sound when there's no volume override actively in effect? Absolutely not.
