Food for thought: A high-fiber diet may reduce risk of dementia
Food for thought: A high-fiber diet may reduce risk of dementia
Researchers found that higher levels of dietary fiber are associated with a reduced risk of developing dementia. In a large-scale study, over 3500 Japanese adults completed a dietary survey and were then followed up for two decades. Adults who consumed more fiber, particularly soluble fiber, were less likely to go on to develop dementia. These findings may relate to interactions between the gut and the brain.

Calorie restriction trial reveals key factors in extending human health
Calorie restriction trial reveals key factors in extending human health
Decades of research has shown that limits on calorie intake by flies, worms, and mice can enhance life span in laboratory conditions. But whether such calorie restriction can do the same for humans remains unclear. Now a new study confirms the health benefits of moderate calorie restrictions in humans -- and identifies a key protein that could be harnessed to extend health in humans.

When it comes to obesity, the problem isn’t an excess of fat but its loss of function, researchers argue
When it comes to obesity, the problem isn’t an excess of fat but its loss of function, researchers argue
Obesity is known to cause cardiometabolic diseases like hypertension and diabetes but attributing these diseases to merely an overabundance of fat is a simplification. On a basic level, fat acts as a receptacle to store energy, but upon a closer look it is an essential actor in vital bodily processes like the immune response, the regulation of insulin sensitivity, and maintenance of body temperature. Researchers argue that the negative health effects of obesity stem not simply from an excess of fat but from the decline in its ability to respond to changes, or in other words, its plasticity.

How the timing of dinner and genetics affect individuals’ blood sugar control: Connections among food intake, melatonin levels and genetics may be important for diabetes risk
How the timing of dinner and genetics affect individuals’ blood sugar control: Connections among food intake, melatonin levels and genetics may be important for diabetes risk
Eating dinner close to bedtime, when melatonin levels are high, disturbs blood sugar control, especially in individuals with a genetic variant in the melatonin receptor MTNR1B, which has been linked to an elevated risk of type 2 diabetes. The high melatonin levels and food intake associated with late eating impairs blood sugar control in carriers of the MTNR1B genetic risk variant through a defect in insulin secretion.
