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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Blue Light: The Health Benefits and Risks
Blue-enriched light can improve the sleep quality and daytime activity of older adults living at home, according to a new study from the University of Surrey. Researchers found that this type of light therapy led to more daytime activity, earlier bedtimes, more regular sleep patterns and improved sleep quality, offering a promising non-pharmacological approach to […]
Cellular Aging in One Organ Can Lead to Multiple Organ Failure
The aging and malfunctioning of cells that occurs when one part of the body is damaged can spread to other organs, a study has found. Scientists have shown for the first time that cell damage in a damaged liver can trigger a process associated with aging and dysfunction, and then spread to otherwise healthy organs […]
