- Stronger weed, higher risk? Potent THC linked to psychosis and addictionon 02/09/2025 at 7:11 am
A sweeping review of nearly 100 studies has raised concerns about the mental health impacts of high-potency cannabis products. Researchers found strong links to psychosis, schizophrenia, and cannabis use disorder, while results for anxiety and depression were mixed and sometimes contradictory. Although the findings confirm that higher THC concentrations pose risks, the evidence still isn’t clear enough to offer firm clinical guidance, leaving scientists calling for better-designed studies to fill the gaps.
- The next Ozempic: A 4-in-1 breakthrough for lasting weight losson 02/09/2025 at 3:48 am
Scientists are racing to improve weight loss treatments beyond drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, which are effective but plagued by nausea, bone loss, and weight regain. Tufts University chemists have created a new multi-target compound that goes beyond the usual GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon approaches by adding a fourth hormone, PYY. This “quadruple-action” design aims to deliver weight loss results on par with bariatric surgery—up to 30%—without invasive procedures, and could change the future of obesity treatment.
- Your nose could detect Alzheimer’s years before memory losson 02/09/2025 at 3:19 am
Researchers have uncovered why smell often fades early in Alzheimer’s: the brain’s immune cells dismantle key nerve connections between the olfactory bulb and brainstem. Membrane changes in neurons send an “eat-me” signal to microglia, which mistakenly destroy them. Evidence from mice, human tissue, and PET scans confirms this process. These insights could pave the way for earlier diagnosis and more effective treatment.
- How long can one RSV shot protect seniors? Study shows surprising two-year shieldon 02/09/2025 at 2:55 am
A single RSV vaccine dose is proving to be a powerful shield for older adults, significantly reducing hospitalizations and severe illness over two consecutive RSV seasons. While protection is strongest in the first year and declines somewhat in the second, the findings highlight both the immediate benefits and the importance of ongoing monitoring. With RSV causing tens of thousands of hospitalizations every year in the U.S., this research underscores the potential of vaccination to save lives and guide future booster strategies.

A breakthrough pill, baxdrostat, has shown remarkable success in lowering dangerously high blood pressure in patients resistant to standard treatments. In a large international trial, it cut systolic pressure by nearly 10 mmHg, enough to significantly reduce risks of heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease. The drug works by blocking excess aldosterone, a hormone that drives uncontrolled hypertension.
- Common heart drug taken by millions found useless, possibly riskyon 31/08/2025 at 3:03 pm
Beta blockers, used for decades after heart attacks, provide no benefit for patients with preserved heart function, according to the REBOOT trial. The massive study also found women faced higher risks when taking the drug. Experts say the results will change heart treatment guidelines worldwide.
- Exercise may actually reverse your body’s aging clockon 31/08/2025 at 9:00 am
New research suggests that exercise may not just make us feel younger—it could actually slow or even reverse the body’s molecular clock. By looking at DNA markers of aging, scientists found that structured exercise like aerobic and strength training has stronger anti-aging effects than casual activity. Evidence from both mice and humans shows measurable reductions in biological age, with benefits reaching beyond muscles to the heart, liver, fat tissue, and gut.
- Beet juice secretly helps older adults lower blood pressure in just two weekson 31/08/2025 at 8:35 am
Drinking nitrate-rich beetroot juice lowered blood pressure in older adults by reshaping their oral microbiome, according to researchers at the University of Exeter. The study found that beneficial bacteria increased while harmful ones decreased, leading to better conversion of dietary nitrates into nitric oxide—a molecule vital for vascular health.
- New AI model predicts which genetic mutations truly drive diseaseon 30/08/2025 at 1:47 pm
Scientists at Mount Sinai have created an artificial intelligence system that can predict how likely rare genetic mutations are to actually cause disease. By combining machine learning with millions of electronic health records and routine lab tests like cholesterol or kidney function, the system produces "ML penetrance" scores that place genetic risk on a spectrum rather than a simple yes/no. Some variants once thought dangerous showed little real-world impact, while others previously labeled uncertain revealed strong disease links.
- Cells “vomit” waste in a hidden healing shortcut that could also fuel canceron 30/08/2025 at 10:56 am
Scientists have uncovered a surprising new healing mechanism in injured cells called cathartocytosis, in which cells "vomit" out their internal machinery to revert more quickly to a stem cell-like state. While this messy shortcut helps tissues regenerate faster, it also leaves behind debris that can fuel inflammation and even cancer.
- Why ultra-processed diets make you gain fat even without extra calorieson 30/08/2025 at 9:13 am
Men eating ultra-processed foods gained more fat than those eating unprocessed meals, even with equal calories. Their hormone levels shifted in worrying ways, with testosterone falling and pollutants rising. Researchers say the processing itself, not overeating, is to blame.
- Scientists create scalable quantum node linking light and matteron 29/08/2025 at 1:09 pm
Quantum scientists in Innsbruck have taken a major leap toward building the internet of the future. Using a string of calcium ions and finely tuned lasers, they created quantum nodes capable of generating streams of entangled photons with 92% fidelity. This scalable setup could one day link quantum computers across continents, enable unbreakable communication, and even transform timekeeping by powering a global network of optical atomic clocks that are so precise they’d barely lose a second over the universe’s entire lifetime.
- Scientists found 3 simple tweaks that cut diabetes risk by 31%on 29/08/2025 at 7:38 am
A Mediterranean diet alone is healthy, but when combined with calorie control, exercise, and support, it cuts type 2 diabetes risk by 31%. The PREDIMED-Plus study followed almost 5,000 participants for six years, making it Europe’s largest nutrition trial. Beyond lowering diabetes risk, participants lost more weight and reduced waist size. Researchers call it clear evidence that small, practical changes can have a big public health impact.
- Lithium deficiency may be the hidden spark behind Alzheimer’son 29/08/2025 at 6:57 am
Harvard scientists have uncovered that lithium, a naturally occurring element in the brain, may be the missing piece in understanding Alzheimer’s. Their decade-long research shows that lithium depletion—caused by amyloid plaques binding to it—triggers early brain changes that lead to memory loss. By testing new lithium compounds that evade plaque capture, they reversed Alzheimer’s-like damage and restored memory in mice at doses far lower than those used in psychiatric treatments.
- Tiny eye implant becomes the first FDA-approved therapy for rare blindnesson 29/08/2025 at 6:28 am
