          Natural Compound in Kale May Help Treat ALS and Dementia

          A natural antioxidant found in foods like kale and berries, kaempferol, may help protect nerve cells and shows promise as a treatment for ALS and dementia. Researchers found that it improves energy production and eases stress within nerve cells, helping maintain muscle function and slow degeneration.

          Low Vitamin K Intake May Accelerate Age-Related Memory Decline

          A new study reveals that insufficient vitamin K may harm brain health and memory as we age. In rodent models, a vitamin K-deficient diet led to increased brain inflammation and fewer newly formed neurons in the hippocampus—key factors in learning and memory.

          Intermittent Fasting Boosts Male Libido by Lowering Serotonin

          A new study shows that long-term intermittent fasting increases the sex drive of male mice by reducing serotonin levels in the brain. The effect was linked to dietary tryptophan deficiency, which lowers the production of serotonin—a neurotransmitter known to inhibit sexual behavior.

          Eating Seafood Linked to Kinder, More Socially Skilled Young Children

          Children who regularly eat seafood at age 7 exhibit more positive social behaviors—such as sharing, helping, and interacting kindly—by ages 7 and 9, compared to those who rarely consume seafood. This finding, from a large study tracking nearly 6,000 children, underscores seafood’s role in supporting behavioral and social development during childhood.

          High-Fat Diet Triggers Memory Decline Within Days

          A new study shows that just three days of a high-fat diet can cause memory impairments and brain inflammation in older adults, independent of obesity. Researchers compared young and old rats fed a diet with 60% of calories from fat and found that only the older rats showed cognitive decline.

          Maternal Diet Influences ADHD and Autism Risk

          A large study analyzing over 60,000 mother-child pairs found that a Western diet during pregnancy—high in fat, sugar, and processed foods—was associated with a significantly increased risk of ADHD and autism in children. Even small shifts toward a Western diet correlated with a 66% higher risk of ADHD and a 122% higher risk of autism.

          Short-Term Junk Food Diet Reduces Brain’s Insulin Sensitivity

          A new study reveals that consuming high-calorie, highly processed foods for just five days can reduce the brain's sensitivity to insulin, a key factor in obesity and type 2 diabetes. Researchers found that even in healthy individuals, short-term unhealthy eating altered brain function, mimicking effects seen in people with obesity.

          Life Expectancy Gains Have Stalled: Poor Diet and Obesity to Blame

          A new study finds that life expectancy improvements across Europe have slowed significantly since 2011. Key factors include rising obesity, poor diets, and physical inactivity, along with the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

          How the Body’s Clock Influences Eating and Weight Gain in Teens

          A new study reveals that the body’s internal clock plays a key role in eating behavior, influencing when and how much adolescents eat. Researchers found that teens with overweight or obesity consumed significantly more calories later in the day compared to those with a healthy weight. By isolating circadian influences from environmental and behavioral factors, they confirmed that food intake peaks in the late afternoon and evening regardless of sleep duration or external time cues.

          Ketogenic Diet May Stabilize Mood in Young People with Bipolar

          Researchers are launching a multi-site pilot study to assess whether a ketogenic diet, alongside standard medications, can stabilize mood symptoms in young people with bipolar disorder. The 16-week trial will involve 40 participants aged 12-21, who will follow a ketogenic diet while their mood symptoms, metabolic markers, and adherence to the diet are monitored.

          Unhealthy Diet Linked to Faster Biological Aging in Young Adults

          Diets high in processed meat, fast food, and sugary drinks accelerate biological aging, even in young adults. Researchers measured biological age using epigenetic clocks, which track gene regulation changes over time. Participants with a diet rich in fruits and vegetables showed slower aging, suggesting dietary choices influence how quickly the body ages.

          A study of over 133,000 individuals found that consuming processed red meat daily increases dementia risk by up to 13%, while replacing it with alternatives like nuts, legumes, or fish may lower the risk by 20%. Higher processed meat intake was associated with accelerated cognitive aging and increased subjective cognitive decline (SCD).
