The human heart works nonstop. Day after day, it pumps blood through the body, adapting to a wide variety of stresses in the process. Two recent studies show just how complex this adaptability is. A study involving more than 11,000 people suggests that increased exposure to light at night is associated with changes in the […]The human heart works nonstop.

Intermittent Fasting for Type 1 Diabetes: A Restricted Eating Window Could Improve Blood Sugar Control
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.

A Pill Instead of CPAP? New Treatment Significantly Reduces Breathing Interruptions in Sleep Apnea
A new treatment for obstructive sleep apnea offers hope to people who cannot tolerate a CPAP mask. The drug AD109 is taken once daily in the evening and is designed not only to treat symptoms but also to target one of the key mechanisms of the condition: the loss of muscle tone in the upper […]A new treatment for obstructive sleep apnea offers hope to people who cannot tolerate a CPAP mask.

Your Sleep Could be an Early Sign of Alzheimer’s
Could subtle changes during sleep reveal a susceptibility to Alzheimer’s disease, even years before memory problems become noticeable? Researchers at the University of Liège (ULiège), with support from the “Stop Alzheimer’s Foundation,” are investigating whether the sleeping brain might provide early clues. Scientists at the University of Liège (GIGA Neurosciences) examined the sleep patterns of […]Could subtle changes during sleep reveal a susceptibility to Alzheimer’s disease, even years before memory problems become noticeable?

Too Much or Too Little Sleep? Both Could be Linked to Faster Aging
A new analysis of the biological aging process throughout the human body suggests that both too little and too much sleep are associated with accelerated aging of the brain, heart, lungs, immune system, and other organs. These sleep patterns have also been linked to a variety of diseases. “Previous studies have shown that sleep is […]A new analysis of the biological aging process throughout the human body suggests that both too little and too much sleep are associated with accelerated aging of the brain, heart, lungs, immune system, and other organs.
