  • newRunning fixes what junk food breaks in the brain
    New research reveals that exercise counteracts the mood-damaging effects of a Western-style diet through specific gut and hormonal mechanisms. Running restored metabolites tied to mental well-being and balanced key hormones like insulin and leptin. However, poor diet limited the brain’s ability to generate new neurons, showing diet still matters for full brain benefits.

  • newDoctors just found a way to slow one of the deadliest prostate cancers
    A powerful new drug combination—niraparib added to standard prostate cancer therapy—has been shown to significantly delay disease progression in men with specific DNA repair gene mutations. In the large AMPLITUDE trial, patients receiving the combo lived longer without symptoms worsening and saw nearly a 50% risk reduction in BRCA-mutated cases. While side effects like anemia were more common, the results mark a major step toward precision medicine for prostate cancer.

  • newScientists discover how a high-fat keto diet could keep your brain young
    Mizzou scientists are exploring how a ketogenic diet may protect the brain and prevent Alzheimer’s in people genetically predisposed to it. Their study found that female mice with the APOE4 gene benefited most, showing improved gut and brain health on a high-fat, low-carb diet. The findings highlight the value of personalized nutrition and early intervention to preserve cognition.

  • newThis simple innovation could change blood pressure testing forever
    Scientists from the University of Exeter has developed a precise method to interpret ankle blood pressure readings—an innovation that could transform care for people unable to have their arm blood pressure measured. By analyzing data from over 33,000 participants, researchers created an algorithm and online calculator that improves accuracy and could prevent thousands of misdiagnoses worldwide.

  • newBrain fog during menopause? Here’s what’s really going on
    Menopause brings profound shifts not just in hormones but in the very structure of the brain. Scientists have found that gray matter in regions tied to memory and thinking can shrink, while white matter may show damage linked to blood flow issues. Yet there’s hope — evidence points to partial recovery and adaptive changes postmenopause.

  • Bird flu hiding in cheese? The surprising new discovery
    Researchers discovered that avian influenza (H5N1) can survive in raw milk cheese made from contaminated milk, even after the 60-day aging process required by the FDA. However, highly acidic cheeses like feta showed no signs of the virus, suggesting acidity plays a crucial protective role. Animal tests revealed that while ferrets could be infected by drinking contaminated raw milk, eating raw milk cheese didn’t cause infection, possibly due to lower viral contact.

  • Scientists detect hidden brain damage years before MS symptoms
    Scientists at UCSF have uncovered evidence that multiple sclerosis silently damages the brain years before diagnosis. By studying proteins in blood samples, they identified early immune signals and markers of nerve damage. The findings point to IL-3 and MOG as crucial early indicators — and open the door to new diagnostic blood tests and preventive strategies.

  • Feeling stressed? Science finds a simple way to take back control
    Feeling in control may be the key to conquering daily stress. Penn State researchers found that people were 62% more likely to resolve everyday hassles on days when they felt greater control. This link grew stronger over time, suggesting we get better at managing stress as we age. Simple actions like setting priorities and reframing challenges can help boost that sense of control and reduce overall stress.

  • Eating ultra-processed foods may rewire the brain and drive overeating
    A massive brain imaging study of nearly 30,000 people has uncovered striking connections between eating ultra-processed foods and measurable changes in brain structure. These changes may be tied to overeating and addictive eating patterns, though scientists caution that more research is needed to confirm cause and effect.

  • Scientists create LED light that kills cancer cells without harming healthy ones
    A new light-driven cancer therapy uses LEDs and tin nanoflakes to kill tumors safely and affordably. Developed by teams in Texas and Portugal, it eliminates up to 92% of skin cancer cells without harming healthy ones.

  • Scientists find immune drug that could halt skin cancer’s deadly spread
    Researchers found that pembrolizumab, an immune-activating cancer drug, lowered the risk of distant metastases in patients with Merkel cell carcinoma after surgery. Though recurrence rates overall weren’t significantly changed, the results hint at a meaningful benefit in preventing cancer spread. The nationwide trial, one of the largest of its kind, underscores the promise of immunotherapy for rare, aggressive cancers.

  • Tiny AI-powered eye implant helps the blind see again
    A groundbreaking retinal implant called PRIMA has enabled blind patients with dry AMD to read again. The chip, powered by light and paired with AR glasses, sends visual data directly to the brain. In clinical trials, most participants regained enough sight to read words and navigate daily life. This innovation represents a leap forward in artificial vision and patient independence.

  • How just minutes of running can supercharge your health
    Interval running condenses the powerful effects of regular running into shorter, high-intensity bursts. Research shows it can improve cardiovascular health, regulate blood sugar, and reduce body fat more effectively than longer steady runs. Just a few short sprints per session can deliver major fitness gains.

  • This simple neck measurement might reveal hidden heart risks
    Neck size is proving to be a powerful indicator of hidden health risks. Larger neck circumferences are associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and sleep apnea, even among those with normal weight. Fat stored in the upper body affects vital metabolic processes, increasing strain on the heart and blood vessels. A simple tape-measure check might reveal more about your health than you think.

  • This common vitamin could cut your skin cancer risk in half
    A massive Veterans Affairs study has confirmed that nicotinamide may offer real protection against skin cancer. Patients who took the vitamin B3 derivative saw notable reductions in new cancer cases—especially squamous cell carcinomas. The findings could shift clinical thinking toward earlier, preventive use of nicotinamide, though it showed less benefit for transplant patients.
