Your daily rhythm may be more important to your brain health than previously thought. Older adults with weaker, more disrupted activity patterns were far more likely to develop dementia than those with stable routines. A later daily energy peak was also associated with a higher risk. The study points to the internal clock as a […]Your daily rhythm may be more important to your brain health than previously thought.

Poor Sleep Accelerates Brain Ageing and Can Increase the Risk of Dementia
People who sleep poorly are more likely than others to have a brain that appears older than it actually is. This is the result of a comprehensive study by the Karolinska Institute. Increased inflammatory activity in the body could partly explain this correlation. Poor sleep is associated with dementia, but it is unclear whether unhealthy […]People who sleep poorly are more likely than others to have a brain that appears older than it actually is.

Scientists Reveal How the Timing of Breakfast Can Affect Your Life Expectancy
As we age, both the type and amount of food we consume tend to change. However, the relationship between mealtimes and our health remains largely unclear. Researchers at Mass General Brigham and their collaborators studied changes in meal times among older adults and found that meal times gradually shift with age. They also identified characteristics […]As we age, both the type and amount of food we consume tend to change. However, the relationship between mealtimes and our health remains largely unclear.

New AI Model Determines Your True Biological Age Based on 5 Drops of Blood
We all know someone who seems to defy aging – people who look younger than their peers despite being the same age. What is their secret? Scientists at Osaka University (Japan) may have found a way to quantify that difference. By incorporating hormone (steroid) metabolic pathways into an AI-driven model, they have developed a new […]We all know someone who seems to defy aging – people who look younger than their peers despite being the same age.

Circadian Rhythms Influence Muscle Repair
The body’s internal clock not only determines when we sleep, but also how quickly our muscles heal. A new study of mice by Northwestern Medicine, published in Science Advances, suggests that muscle injuries heal faster when they occur during the body’s natural waking hours. The findings could have implications for shift workers and also prove […]The body's internal clock not only determines when we sleep, but also how quickly our muscles heal.
