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.
A recent study has found that chemicals in food packaging, plastics, lotions, and shampoos are linked to numerous heart disease deaths. Phthalates, synthetic chemicals in consumer products, may have caused over 13% of heart disease deaths worldwide in 2018 among people aged 55-64.
A study suggests that watching TV for over two hours daily may decrease the likelihood of aging healthily. The research involved surveying 45,000 female nurses who were 50 years of age or older in 1992 and free from chronic illnesses. It asked about their sedentary and active behavior at home and work, as well as their general well-being.
Scented wax melts are small, highly fragranced wax pieces that release aroma when heated indoors. Unlike traditional candles, they do not burn, making them a cleaner, safer, smoke-free, and supposedly non-toxic alternative. However, a recent study suggests that scented wax melts release high levels of volatile organic compounds comparable to burning candles and even diesel engines. Inhaling these particles has been associated with health risks such as asthma and atherosclerosis.
New research led by the University of Plymouth has found that exposure to green spaces and nature is associated with lower cravings for cigarettes, alcohol, and unhealthy food choices. Â This is the first study to reveal that passive exposure to close green spaces is linked to not only lower frequency of cravings, but also the strength of those cravings.
A new study at the University of Exeter has discovered another good reason to live a healthy lifestyle! Â The research found that in people with a high genetic risk for developing dementia the risk was 32 percent lower if they followed a healthy lifestyle.
A study conducted at the King’s College London, Centre for Stem Cells Regenerative Medicine, have used sequencing of single cell RNA to help identify a cell type that might have the ability to regenerate tissue in the liver. This discovery could possibly lead to treating liver failure without transplants.
A research team at the University of Illinois, Chicago and the University of Pennsylvania have developed a new and unique technique which uses flexible implantable bone stabilizing plates and stem cells to speed healing of bone defects or large breaks.
As we age brain stiffness increases which leads to stem cell dysfunction. New research has demonstrated new ways to reverse this aging process in older stem cells into a younger and healthier state
New findings about how the aging process works may pave the way to better treatments and revolutionary new medications that could immensely improve human health.
