A new study by researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago provides initial evidence that time-restricted eating could be a promising addition to the management of type 1 diabetes for certain adults. Participants who ate their meals within an eight-hour window achieved better blood sugar levels after six months than participants who specifically reduced their […]A new study by researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago provides initial evidence that time-restricted eating could be a promising addition to the management of type 1 diabetes for certain adults.

Brown Fat: The Body’s Underrated Regulator
Researchers have found that the length of daylight hours influences the level of opioid receptors in brown adipose tissue. As daylight hours shorten, receptor activity increases. A similar phenomenon also occurs in the brain. Both phenomena help humans and animals adapt to seasonal changes. The Importance of Brown Fat As the season grows darker and […]Researchers have found that the length of daylight hours influences the level of opioid receptors in brown adipose tissue.

Discovered in the Gut: The Hidden Trigger for Heart Disease in Sleep Apnea
Millions of people worldwide suffer from obstructive sleep apnea, a common condition in which breathing is repeatedly interrupted during sleep. New research in mice suggests that gut microbes and the metabolites they produce may play a surprising role in protecting against some of the most serious consequences of this condition, including heart disease. The findings […]Millions of people worldwide suffer from obstructive sleep apnea, a common condition in which breathing is repeatedly interrupted during sleep.
