Ingestion of the Non-Nutritive Sweetener Erythritol, but Not Glucose, Enhances Platelet Reactivity and Thrombosis Potential in Healthy Volunteers
Lung cancer has not typically been considered linked to diet. Yet, recent research has revealed an unexpected factor contributing to lung cancer risk. The mix of sugar and fat in our diets. A diet high in sugar and fat could cause glycogen, a form of stored sugar, to build up in lung tissues. Researchers believe this buildup could potentially set the stage for cancer development.
Everyday use of plastic products generates tiny, nearly invisible plastic particles that may affect human health when ingested or inhaled. To address this, researchers developed biodegradable plastics using plant-based starch instead of petroleum. But these may not be as safe or beneficial to health as initially believed. Prolonged exposure to starch-based microplastics indicates broad health impacts.
Sleep is crucial for work, productivity, and overall health, yet many employees don't get sufficient rest. Considering that sleep is vital for our well-being, reevaluating our work practices could be essential for enhancing our health. Enhancing sleep health may require more than just adjusting work hours. Research indicates that incorporating physical activity during the workday and minimizing work after hours could not only improve sleep quality that night but also prevent persistent sleep issues years down the line.
