ScienceAlert... Researchers have shown for the first time that by simply cutting a particular amino acid from a mouse's diet, you can stop it from producing new blood cells entirely. That might sound like a bad thing, but would be incredibly beneficial for patients who are about to get a bone marrow transplant. If the same thing works in humans, it would mean patients could make a simple change of diet a few weeks before a bone marrow transplant, instead of going through rounds of chemo or radiotherapy to wipe out old blood cells and make room for new, healthy ones. Right now, one in 20 patients die as a result of bone marrow transplants, and sometimes because of the complications ...

HighYa Are some foods better for you when paired, than when eaten alone? That’s the basics behind food synergy – the idea that certain foods have nutritional ‘friends.’ Eating two complementary foods at the same time enables your body to more effectively absorb the nutrients that each provides. We asked Jennifer Glockner, a registered dietitian nutritionist and creator of Teddy Tries a Veggie, the first book in the Smartee Plate nutrition e-book series for kids. According to Jennifer, certain nutrients can work together in a synergistic manner. Here are some examples of food pairings that can help your body get a boost of important nutrients: Iron Is Important For ...

MELBOURNE, Oct. 21 (Xinhua) -- Australian researchers have discovered a way to genetically engineer rice which would provide significant health benefits to more than half the world's population. A study undertaken at the University of Tasmania, published in respected journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, discovered a method to increase the resistant starch content in rice, making it more digestible and leading to lower rates of diabetes and obesity. Steven Smith, the lead author of the study and a foreign expert for the Chinese Government who has been appointed to work on crop improvement projects by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said increasing the higher ...

1. Cinnamon is High in a Substance With Powerful Medicinal Properties Cinnamon is a spice that is made from the inner bark of trees called Cinnamomum. It has been used as an ingredient throughout history, dating back as far as Ancient Egypt. It used to be rare and valuable, and was regarded as a gift fit for kings. These days, cinnamon is cheap, available in every supermarket and found in all sorts of foods and recipes. There are two main types of cinnamon (1): Ceylon cinnamon: Also known as “true” cinnamon. Cassia cinnamon: This is the more common variety today, what people generally refer to as “cinnamon.” Cinnamon is made by cutting the stems of the cinnamomum ...
For back pain, acetaminophen is no better than placebo pill, large Lancet study finds

National Post... Tylenol and other drugs that depend on acetaminophen as their active ingredient are about as effective as a fake pill at relieving back pain, a new study says. LONDON — Acetaminophen isn’t any better at relieving back pain than a fake pill, despite almost universal recommendations to take the drug, according to the first big trial to test it. Acetaminophen, sold as Tylenol and Paracetamol, among other names, is recommended in numerous guidelines for back pain, mainly because it has few side effects; past studies have shown it works for other types of pain. But there is no proof it is effective for lower back pain in particular. In a new study, Australian ...

At the conclusion of his December 11, 1945, Nobel Lecture, Sir Alexander Fleming hypothesized about an "ignorant man" giving himself "not enough to kill the streptococci but enough to educate them to resist penicillin." The man who shared the 1945 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Ernst Boris Chain and Sir Howard Walter Florey "for the discovery of penicillin and its curative effect in various infectious diseases" warned of what we now refer to as "antimicrobial resistance" (AMR). Random changes in organisms' DNA can have no effect, they can be helpful, and they can be harmful. How you describe such effects is all a matter of ...
Scientists discover physical source of depression

COVENTRY, England, Oct. 18 (UPI) -- An international research team says they have identified the physical source of depression in the brain in a new study. Investigators traced depression, one of the most common mental ailments in the world, to the lateral orbitofrontal cortex, the part of the brain responsible for a non-reward mechanism. According to the research team, this is likely the reason people living with depression often feel a sense of loss, disappointment and low self-esteem. In addition to the lateral orbitofrontal cortex, researchers also linked depression to the medial orbitofrontal cortex and memory systems, which they say explains why individuals with depression have ...
Caffeine and Heart Arrhythmias (IrregularHeartbeat)

A cardiac arrhythmia is when the heart beats out of rhythm sometimes missing a beat or beating twice in the time period that usually would be one beat. Since caffeine is a stimulant and speeds up heart rate, doctors believed that this effect could be dangerous for those with heart arrhythmias. Doctors once warned those with cardiac arrhythmias to avoid consuming caffeine, but this advice may be somewhat outdated. Advertisement Those with existing heart arrhythmias should exercise caution when consuming caffeine, which involves understanding the amount of caffeine in beverages/ foods as well as the amount they are consuming daily. Some people do report that their heart ...

ScienceAlert... There's no shortage of bloggers and marketing professionals out there telling us to only eat organic in order to achieve better health. But is organic food actually better for you and the environment? Or is just an expensive sham? The boys from AsapSCIENCE are here to take us through the scientific evidence surrounding organic food - and let's just say it's not always a case of 'You get what you paid for.' For starters, a lot of people buy organic food with the assumption that it doesn't involve the use of any fertilisers or pesticides. But that's not true. By definition, organic foods only have to avoid synthetic fertilisers and pesticides - ...

Drinking water is one the best favors you can do to your body. It has surprising health benefits such as strong kidneys, more energy, better mood, and lower cholesterol. Hot water only adds to the long list of reasons why water should be a staple in your diet with several exclusive reliefs. No one can argue that hot water is not tasty. But the few seconds of weirdness significantly outweigh the benefits Better digestion Warm water stimulates digestion. The body won’t use so much energy to break down the food you consumed, which makes it very easy for them to be digested and to smoothly pass through the intestines. Drinking cold water while you eat has the opposite effect. This ...

In 2015 the editor of the Lancet study admitted that pharmaceutical marketing is supported by deceitful research. Now, a new report issued by a distinguished doctor provides more insight into how drug companies manipulate scientific research in order to advance corporate interests in the realms of health and medicine. A meta-analysis is an overarching view of several previously conducted scientific studies which measures both qualitative and quantitative evidence to come to a conclusion about a premise proposed by a scientist – except when that study is paid for by the very companies whom conduct the ‘analysis’ in order to sway data in their interests. Though the tool of ...

ScienceAlert... It seems like simple, obvious advice: eat your vegetables, get some exercise, and - of course - take your vitamins. Or not. Decades of research has failed to find any substantial evidence that vitamins and supplements do any significant good. In fact, recent studies skew in the opposite direction, having found that certain vitamins may be bad for you. Several have been linked with an increase in certain cancers, for example, while others have been tied to a rise in the risk of kidney stones. And a large new study out Wednesday suggests that despite this growing knowledge, Americans' pill-popping habits have stayed basically the same over the last decade. So here are ...

Infomercial... For years, scientists have conducted studies on zinc. And for years they've gotten conflicting results. Some studies showed that zinc works. And some studies showed it doesn't. But recently, one group of researchers conducted a meta analysis of all the published studies on zinc. They discarded any studies with poor methodology. What they were left with were double-blind, placebo-controlled studies totaling 1,387 participants. The researchers looked at all the different factors that could have affected the outcome of the studies — what kind of zinc, what form it was in, what dose... everything. When all was said and done, they finally had some answers about ...
Scientists just used stem cells from one monkey to heal the hearts of five others

ScienceAlert... Scientists in Japan have used cardiac muscle cells derived from the stem cells of a macaque to mend the damaged hearts of five other monkeys. The technique shows that using donor stem cells might one day be a viable way to regenerate the organs of human heart attack patients – an approach that could dramatically reduce the time and expense of developing individualised stem cell treatments. While using stem cell therapy to treat conditions like heart problems isn't new, the technique usually involves cultivating stem cells taken from the patient themselves – which can be very expensive. Alternatively, stem cells can be harvested from human embryos, but that ...

The study builds on prior research which suggested most of the calcium consumed through supplements does not make it to the skeleton. BALTIMORE, Oct. 12 (UPI) -- People who take calcium in the form of supplements may face a higher risk for heart disease, Johns Hopkins researchers suggest in a new study. During the study, researchers analyzed 10 years of medical tests on over 2,700 people. According to the authors, calcium supplements may contribute to the plaque buildup in arteries associated with heart disease in addition to heart damage. Calcium-rich foods, by contrast, were found to be beneficial. The findings were published in the Journal of the American Heart Association. ...

In 1943, a Greek war veteran named Stamatis Moraitis came to the United States for treatment of a combat-mangled arm. He’d survived a gunshot wound, escaped to Turkey and eventually talked his way onto the Queen Elizabeth, then serving as a troopship, to cross the Atlantic. Moraitis settled in Port Jefferson, N.Y., an enclave of countrymen from his native island, Ikaria. He quickly landed a job doing manual labor. Later, he moved to Boynton Beach, Fla. Along the way, Moraitis married a Greek-American woman, had three children and bought a three-bedroom house and a 1951 Chevrolet. One day in 1976, Moraitis felt short of breath. Climbing stairs was a chore; he had to quit working ...

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10 (Xinhua) -- British researchers said Monday they have prevented the development of Alzheimer's disease in mice by using a virus to deliver a specific gene into the brain, an advance that may lead to potential new treatments for the disease. This gene, called PGC1-alpha, may prevent the formation of a protein called amyloid-beta peptide, which is the main component of amyloid plaques found in the brains of Alzheimer's patients, according to previous studies in lab cells by the same team. The early-stage findings, by scientists from Imperial College London, were published in the U.S. journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. "Although these ...
