New research shows that while four weeks of alternate-day fasting can quickly reduce body weight and fat, it also leads to a measurable loss of muscle, and adding a whey protein shake during fasting days isn’t enough to stop it.
Type 2 diabetes, which occurs when the body stops responding to insulin, the hormone that controls blood glucose levels, is becoming increasingly common. Before type 2 diabetes develops, many people have blood glucose levels that are higher than normal, a condition called prediabetes that is usually symptom-free. Now, an Indian study has found that if people take steps to combat prediabetes within 2 years of diagnosis, they can prevent it progressing to type 2 diabetes.
Over the last few years, research has shown that having too much visceral fat can be very harmful to a person’s health. Past studies have shown that having an unhealthy amount of visceral fat may increase a person’s risk of several health conditions. A new study found that improving both diet and exercise levels simultaneously may be more effective in preventing weight gain, particularly of visceral fat.
A new narrative review unpacks how coffee may sharpen thinking and protect the brain while highlighting why its true mechanisms remain elusive.
Past studies show one of the most potentially harmful areas to accumulate fat is visceral fat within the abdominal area. Previous research has linked high amounts of visceral fat to an increased risk for several health issues, including Alzheimer’s disease. A new study found that having a higher muscle mass and lower visceral fat to muscle ratio may help keep your brain young, which may help lower future risk for brain-related diseases.
Maintaining a consistent bedtime can significantly lower a person’s blood pressure for the entire day, according to a new study. Participants in the small proof-of-concept study experienced clinically significant average blood pressure reductions after just 2 weeks of going to sleep at the same time each night. The cardiovascular system, and blood pressure, are tightly tied to one’s sleep/wake cycle and internal clock. As a result, consistent sleep habits result in less disruption for the system to accommodate.
A new scientific review reveals the molecular networks underlying coffee’s most potent compounds, demonstrating how this everyday drink may reduce disease risks through its coordinated antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects.
