A large-scale study in Health Data Science (PMID: 40464054) found that poor sleep patterns were linked to 172 diseases, including dementia, Parkinson’s disease, diabetes, and kidney failure. Importantly, 92 of those diseases had more than 20% of their risk attributable to poor

Sleeping <6 hours was associated with a rise in dementia risk of 22% compared to hitting 7 hours in one 30-year study. Those extra hours of morning productivity aren't worth decades of cognitive decline.

Utah Valley University was committed to teaching constructive dialogue. They, and all universities, should keep going. Programs like Constructive Dialogue Institute reduce affective polarization, which reduces dehumanization.

Fantastic to yet again listen to the world leading professor Alan Pearce on brain injuries and his career. Refused to be silenced by big sport. We believed and excepted what sport told us…..it was an opinion not science based. Such a humble guy❤️🧠🏉 open.spotify.com/episode/4vZxbe…

Magnesium-L-threonate increased brain (CSF) Mg²⁺ by 15%, enhanced spatial memory, and improved pattern completion in aged rats. Mechanism is possibly more synaptic connections + stronger plasticity.

htw Brandon Luu, MD Obie formy magnezu – L-treoninian i acetylowany taurynian – dobrze przenikają do mózgu i zwiększają poziom Mg w CSF. L-treoninian ma więcej badań na poprawę pamięci (np. wzrost o 15% w badaniach na szczurach). Acetylowany taurynian pokazuje obiecujące efekty neuroprotekcyjne, ale

A new large study of alcohol intake using genetics (Mendelian randomization) finds a dose-response relationship for risk of dementia with no protective effect at low levels of intake ebm.bmj.com/content/early/…

Large study combining observational and genetic data shows drinking any amount of alcohol likely increases dementia risk. Previous studies suggesting light drinking protects the brain likely didn’t properly account for former drinkers.

Huntington's disease was successfully treated for the first time with gene therapy. 75% reduction in symptoms & 113% protection of cognition. This is what a real medical breakthrough looks like.

Cortisol should peak in morning and drop at night, but chronic stress flattens this rhythm. When mice lost this daily cortisol oscillation (mimicking jet lag/shift work), they developed hyperinsulinemia and doubled their fat mass in 3 weeks (despite eating the same amount).

Prozac May Rewire the Brain by Loosening Rigid Neural Circuits Researchers have found that fluoxetine, a common antidepressant, works in more ways than boosting serotonin. In the prefrontal cortex, parvalbumin interneurons became less rigid after treatment, with energy

Sleep Disorders Predict Parkinson’s or Dementia Years Ahead Scientists have identified two brain biomarkers that predict whether people with REM sleep behaviour disorder (iRBD) will later develop Parkinson’s disease or dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). A large MRI study found
