Massive genetics study shows what truly separates and unites 14 psychiatric disorders

This large-scale genomic analysis of 14 psychiatric disorders shows that most heritable risk is shared across five broad genetic factors, with only limited disorder-specific variation. The study maps where risks converge or diverge biologically, revealing distinct cell type signatures and developmental pathways that may guide future diagnostic and therapeutic frameworks.

How specific foods reshape oxidative stress responses during and after high-intensity training

Carbohydrate-rich foods blunt acute oxidative stress during fasted high-intensity exercise, while polyphenol-rich foods accelerate early recovery by reducing post-exercise ROS. Findings highlight how nutrient timing shapes redox responses in sedentary young women undergoing resistance-circuit HIIT.

What happens to your body when you eat takeaway food too often?

This study of 8,556 US adults shows that frequent takeaway food consumption is associated with a higher energy-adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index and adverse cardiometabolic markers. The findings suggest that reducing takeaway intake and lowering dietary inflammatory potential may improve long-term cardiometabolic health.

Early scans reveal prostate radiotherapy toxicity risk

Daily scans taken during prostate cancer radiotherapy could be repurposed to guide changes to treatment, reducing the risk of side effects, a study suggests.

White bread vs wholegrain: which one is actually better for your health?

This review dispels common myths about white and wholegrain bread by examining their composition processing and health effects. It concludes that while wholegrain breads offer added benefits white bread remains a safe affordable and nutritionally meaningful staple when fortified.

What happens to your body during an ultramarathon? New study reveals key metabolic changes

This study tracked ultramarathon runners across 100 km, 160.9 km, and 230 km events to examine real-world metabolic, hormonal, and muscle stress responses. Severe energy deficits, muscle damage, and heterogeneous hormonal shifts were observed, with the greatest strain seen in the 230 km distance.

Driving simulator exposes early Parkinson’s impairments that routine tests fail to detect

A high-fidelity driving simulator detected subtle visuospatial, attentional, and reaction time impairments in people with mild to moderate Parkinson’s disease, even when standard cognitive tests appeared normal. The study shows that simulator-based assessments can uncover real-world driving difficulties linked to disease severity that traditional screening tools often miss.

How much omega-3 do you need daily? New global review reveals DHA and EPA requirements

Global and national guidelines for long-chain omega-3 intake vary widely across life stages, with many countries lacking clear recommendations. Most authorities advise at least 250 mg/day of EPA and DHA, yet population intakes remain far below optimal levels.

Why the form of vitamin B12 you take may matter more than your intake

This comprehensive review examines vitamin B12 absorption, physiological roles, deficiency states, and dietary sources, with particular attention to differences between natural and synthetic forms. The authors conclude that while all B12 forms raise circulating levels, methylcobalamin may offer advantages in specific clinical contexts, especially where absorption or metabolic conversion is impaired.

National study maps where food additives come from in children’s and adults’ diets

By analysing nationally representative diet data, researchers show that food additives rarely occur alone, with children and teenagers experiencing the highest exposure to complex additive mixtures largely driven by ultra-processed foods.

Sterilized fermented beverage targets obesity and type 2 diabetes pathways in computational study

Researchers profiled a terminally sterilized probiotic-fermented MFH beverage and identified aporphine alkaloids and flavonoids with favorable predicted ADMET properties. Integrated network pharmacology, molecular docking, and 100-ns MD simulations suggest multi-target engagement of metabolic-inflammatory pathways relevant to obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Routine blood test may flag hidden osteoporosis risk, study finds

A large hospital-based cross-sectional study examined whether routinely measured serum alkaline phosphatase can indicate osteoporosis risk in adults undergoing health checks. Higher ALP levels, even within the normal range, were associated with greater osteoporosis likelihood, particularly in younger, female, and metabolically healthy individuals.

Supportive marriages may shape appetite control through oxytocin and the brain–gut axis

Supportive marital relationships are associated with lower BMI, fewer food addiction symptoms, higher oxytocin, stronger frontal brain responses to food cues, and favorable gut tryptophan metabolites. These coordinated social, neural, hormonal, and gut pathways suggest a plausible biological link between emotional support and healthier eating regulation.

Hotter days and nights are already stealing sleep across the U.S.

Rising nighttime and daytime temperatures are associated with reduced sleep duration, poorer sleep continuity, delayed sleep onset, and altered sleep stages in a large U.S. cohort tracked with wearable devices. Vulnerability is greatest among adults aged 40–50 years, females, people with lower socioeconomic status, chronic conditions, and those living in marine climate zones, with climate change projected to further magnify sleep loss.

Industrial and farm chemicals quietly alter the balance of gut microbes

This study systematically screened over 1,000 agricultural and industrial chemicals and found that many can inhibit human gut bacteria in vitro. Beyond antimicrobial effects, these chemicals act as selective pressures that can reshape microbial competition, tolerance mechanisms, and metabolic pathways.

Study reveals the hidden toll of sudden cardiac death in type 1 and type 2 diabetes

A Danish nationwide study found that people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes have markedly higher rates of sudden cardiac death than the general population, especially at younger ages. At age 30, people with diabetes lose many years of life, with several of those years specifically attributable to sudden cardiac death.

Shingles vaccination is linked to fewer dementia diagnoses and deaths in older adults

A large quasi-experimental study in Wales shows that eligibility for shingles vaccination is linked to fewer new mild cognitive impairment diagnoses and lower dementia-related mortality. Benefits appear strongest in women and are observed at multiple stages of the dementia disease course.

Parental leniency toward binge drinking is tied to heavier alcohol use in Greek students

Parental permissiveness toward heavy episodic drinking is higher among Greek-affiliated students and their parents during the transition from high school to college. Students who perceive greater parental approval of heavy drinking report more frequent alcohol use, with this relationship differing by Greek affiliation.

Restless legs syndrome linked to higher Parkinson’s disease risk

The study shows restless legs syndrome is associated with higher Parkinson's disease incidence, raising questions about treatment impacts on symptoms.
