Balancing the autonomic nervous system: Natural remedies for everyday symptoms
Common symptoms such as headaches, heart palpitations, insomnia and muscle aches may indicate autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction, which affects vital functions like heart rate, breathing and digestion. Symptoms of ANS imbalance can manifest in five key categories: neurological (dizziness, headaches), sensory (blurred vision, tinnitus), digestive (bloating, acid reflux), endocrine/muscular (cold extremities, muscle tension) and […]

New landmark study debunks “protective” effects of moderate drinking on the brain
A large new study (observational + genetic) shows that light or moderate alcohol consumption does not protect the brain—and in fact is associated with increased dementia risk. Earlier observational studies that found a U?shaped curve (with moderate drinkers appearing at lower risk) likely suffered from reverse causation: people developing dementia reduce drinking before diagnosis, creating […]

Rising tide of “brain fog”: Young Americans report sharp uptick in cognitive struggles
Self-reported cognitive difficulties (concentration, memory, decision-making) are rising—not just in older adults but notably among younger Americans—and are interfering with work, schooling and daily life. Analysis of over 4.5 million BRFSS survey responses (2013–2023, excluding 2020 and those reporting depression) shows prevalence climbed from 5.3 percent to 7.4 percent; among ages 18–39, it rose from […]

Breakthrough nanotech therapy reverses Alzheimer’s in mice — human trials on the horizon
Researchers from IBEC and West China Hospital (with U.K. collaborators) have reversed Alzheimer’s disease in mice using engineered “supramolecular” nanoparticles that target the brain’s immune and vascular systems, not just neurons. The nanoparticles act by reprogramming microglia and repairing the blood–brain barrier (BBB), restoring the brain’s native clearance of toxic proteins (such as amyloid-B) via […]

Consuming NUTS can support cognitive health and weight control, research finds
A recent trial found that eating 50g of walnuts at breakfast improved memory and reaction times in young adults, with effects lasting throughout the day. Studies show that including nuts in calorie-restricted diets does not hinder weight loss—and may even improve outcomes like cholesterol and blood pressure compared to nut-free diets. Nuts are rich in […]

High blood pressure may increase Alzheimer’s risk, but hope remains through lifestyle and treatment
Elevated systolic blood pressure (the “top” number) is linked to an eight to 11 percent higher risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. People with untreated high blood pressure have about a 36 percent higher risk of Alzheimer’s compared to those without hypertension and about 42 percent higher risk compared to those who are treated. Mechanisms include […]

Study: A very specific dietary strategy can help make glioblastoma more treatable
Glioblastoma cells rewire their metabolism. Instead of using glucose for the brain’s normal energy functions and neurotransmitter production, the tumors divert sugar into building blocks (nucleotides) needed for rapid growth and invasion. Glioblastoma shows reduced capacity to produce serine and glycine internally, and instead scavenges them from the blood. Mice fed diets low in serine […]
