This discovery offers crucial insights into disease progression and potential new intervention strategies.
There has been an increase in the popularity of time-restricted eating, also known as intermittent fasting, over the last few years. Past studies show following time-restricted eating might improve certain health areas, including metabolic health. A new study found that when you eat when following time-restricted eating, and how large your eating window is, matters when it comes to metabolic health benefits.
A new scientific review suggests that regular hot bathing could help reduce blood pressure in certain groups. However, researchers caution that small study sizes, mixed results, and unanswered questions mean it should complement, not replace, established treatments.
Key takeaways Several types of anxiety medications are available, including SSRIs, SNRIs, TCAs, and benzodiazepines; a doctor can help determine the most appropriate choice. While generally effective, anxiety medications can cause side effects, which vary depending on the specific drug; consulting with a doctor is crucial for managing these effects. Beyond medication, lifestyle changes such as home remedies and alternative treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can also help manage anxiety.

Working with, rather than against, your chronotype — such as being a night owl or an early bird — could increase performance and support metabolic health. The review also highlights the importance of maintaining muscle mass in promoting healthy aging. Medical experts also touch on three key areas night owls can improve their health.
A new landmark analysis from the World Health Organization (WHO) and its subdivision, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), emphasizes just how many cancer cases globally could be prevented through lifestyle choices. According to the analysis, up to four in 10 new cases of cancer globally are preventable. One striking finding also suggests that there are significantly more cancer cases affecting the male versus the female population. The analysis outlines 30 modifiable risk factors, including, for the first time, nine types of infections.
Two new cases of the often deadly zoonotic Nipah virus have been reported in West Bengal, India. A 1998 outbreak of the virus claimed the lives of over 100 people. The virus’ unusual modes of transmission make it an unlikely candidate for a worldwide pandemic. The virus is carried by fruit bats, or “flying foxes,” that infect a popular delicacy as well as other mammals with whom humans work in the Asia-Pacific region.
A new study examines differences in heart disease risk between males and females. The researchers find that an increased risk in males begins much earlier in adulthood than expected. More surprisingly, this effect was still present after controlling for other factors, such as the protective nature of female sex hormones.
