Each 10% Refined Carb Increase Cuts Healthy Aging Odds by 13%
New research tracking women over time found that every 10% increase in refined carbohydrate intake reduced the odds of healthy aging by 13%, while swapping in high-quality carbs — measured by fiber content, glycemic load, and fermentability — improved outcomes across physical, cognitive, and metabolic health.
A Protein That Shields the Brain From Alzheimer’s — Even in High-Risk People
New research in 2025 has identified naturally occurring proteins that defend the brain against Alzheimer's damage, offering a potential path toward prevention rather than just treatment — even for those with high genetic risk.
Experimental Alzheimer’s Drug Targets Tau — and Cut Symptom Risk in Half
A Biogen drug called diranersen slashed Alzheimer's symptom risk by half in a high-risk subgroup by blocking tau production before it misfolds — the strongest early signal yet that tau is a viable drug target.
Leafy Greens May Cut COPD Risk by 16%, Large UK Study Finds
A decade-long UK Biobank study of nearly 180,000 people found that those with the highest dietary vitamin K1 intake — from foods like spinach, kale, and broccoli — had a 16% lower likelihood of developing COPD and measurably better lung function.
Brain Scans Reveal Two Biologically Distinct Forms of Major Depression
Researchers have split major depressive disorder into two biologically distinct subtypes — biotype 1, linked to neuroinflammation, and biotype 2, marked by altered brain connectivity — using measurable differences visible in brain scans, a finding that could reshape how depression is diagnosed and treated.
Mobile Homes Heat Up Faster Than Site-Built Houses — and People Die for It
New research shows mobile homes heat up faster than site-built houses, exposing 22 million Americans — disproportionately older, lower-income, and rural — to life-threatening heat-related illness due to structural design flaws baked in at the factory.Load More
