This study purports that the more friends you have on Facebook, the more developed the social bits of your brain are.
It says that brain areas for social skills are larger in "college students with sprawling social networks than in Facebook users with fewer friends." The authors caution that they're not making any sweeping cause and effect statement here. So basically the more friends you have, the more you'll have on Facebook. Duh.
The full study report is available online.

Vitamins may be bad for you
This "observational study" says maybe we shouldn't be taking all those vitamins. Since even junk food has added nutritional supplements (?!?!), those daily pills may not be of any use.
And could even be harmful.
Although, Vitamin D is still recommended for several age groups. And you should take it with the most high-fat meal you eat daily.
