    Three toed sloths may be the slowest land animal. The real slowest animal in the world is a sea anemone which has only a maximum speed of 10 inches per hour.

    The animal with the slowest movement on Earth is the three-toed sloth (Bradypus), particularly the species brown-throated sloth (Bradypus variegatus). Sloths are known for their incredibly slow pace, primarily because their metabolism is extremely slow and their muscle mass is adapted for hanging in trees rather than for fast movement.

    On average, a sloth moves at a speed of about 0.03 miles per hour (0.05 km/h), but they can sometimes move even slower. This slow pace is an adaptation to their low-energy diet of leaves and their need to conserve energy. The sloth's slow movements also help it remain less detectable to predators like jaguars and harpy eagles.

Why ghee is better than olive oil?

What’s healthier, olive oil or ghee?      Ghee is better than olive oil. Ghee has a high smoke point when compared to vegetable oils including olive oil. A high smoke point means less toxic compound acrylamide is produced while cooking. Acrylamide in high doses can cause cancer. Ghee contains butyric acid which is good for the colon and regulates blood sugar and cholesterol levels. While olive oil contains vitamin E ghee contains fat-soluble vitamins A, E, D, and K. Considering the common deficiency of sunlight vitamin  D nowadays cooking with ghee is much beneficial. Ghee is lactose-free, has anti-inflammatory properties, and has a rich creamy taste with great aroma. Ghee is the better option for those who follow a paleo or ketogenic diet due to its rich healthy fat content.
