    How does doom spending stop us from saving money?

    How does doom spending stop us from saving money?

    Members of Gen Z, when you were kids, you might well have had grand plans for your twenties – owning a house, landing a job, getting hitched, and having kids. But where are you now? 
    Are you a keen saver eyeing up homeownership, perhaps abiding by some of the methods we've talked about in the past on Do You Really Know?, like loud budgeting, cash stuffing or the 50/30/20 method? Or do you feel powerless, like your generation got the short end of the stick when it comes to property, and there's nothing you can do about it? 
    Where does it come from? But is it all due to inflation and soaring property prices? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    How quick is premature ejaculation?

    How quick is premature ejaculation?

    According to the British Association of Urinological Surgeons, somewhere between 20 and 30% of men experience premature ejaculation. But of those men, less than a quarter actually seek medical advice.
    That’s despite it being an issue that often takes a toll psychologically on the man and the relationship they have with their partner. If it's always been an issue, it's termed primary premature ejaculation; whereas if it occurs after a period of normal ejaculation, it's called "secondary." And various factors can contribute to the condition.
    Like what? Just how long do most people have sex for? What should men do if the problem persists? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    Should I eat starchy foods in the evening?

    After clocking out, who doesn’t crave a hearty meal after a hard day's work? But here’s the thing: your dinner choices could be tipping the scales.
    You’ve likely heard the old saying, “Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper.” And yes, that pauper’s plate might skip the starches.

    Is drinking decaf bad for my health?

    Is drinking decaf bad for my health?

    Coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world, with an average of 98 million cups consumed in the UK every day, according to the British Coffee Association.
    In moderation, there are plenty of benefits to be gained from drinking coffee, but there can also be some negative side effects, in particular due to its caffeine content. Decaf is an alternative, but is it really healthier? Our bodies don’t all process caffeine in the same way. It also depends on our sleep quality and the dose of caffeine.
    What effects can caffeine have on our bodies? How is decaf actually produced? What about the benefits of drinking coffee? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    How did broccoli freckles become a beauty trend?

    How did broccoli freckles become a beauty trend?

    Anyone who uses Tiktok knows that you can stumble across some pretty random stuff on there. I mean, all of us have our own algorithm-tailored For You page, but still the latest wacky trends tend to get served to us whether we’ve viewed similar content or not.
    The Broccoli Freckles trend is a case in point. Iif you haven’t already heard of it, you could be forgiven for thinking it’s got something to do with food. But that’s actually not the case - in reality it’s a beauty hack! And it really started taking off on Tiktok in the first few months of 2024. At the time of recording, there have been over 60m related posts.
    Where does the broccoli part come from then? Well, it's natural at least, isn’t it? I don’t get it: how have freckles come back into fashion all of a sudden? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

    What is a testicle bath?

    What is a testicle bath?

    Still in this day and age, the burden of being responsible for birth control falls mainly on women. You’ve got an almost endless list of reversible female methods, such as the pill, coil, vaginal ring and the implant, with new ones never ceasing to emerge. On the other hand, when it comes to male contraceptives, the options out there are pretty limited.
    Mentalities are evolving but there is little communication on the subject. That’s despite trials on the male pill having been carried out as you may remember from listening to our past episode on male contraception. Of course, men can choose to get a vasectomy but that is a permanent procedure.
    How does it actually work? It wasn’t a man who came up with this? Should we be expecting to see the testicle bath device available soon? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
