- Brain health warning sign could be hiding in plain sight, say researchers
A new study from the University of Southern California suggests that the way blood pressure fluctuates from one heartbeat to the next may be just as important as the overall blood pressure reading — especially when it comes to brain health in aging adults.Researchers found that older adults who experienced greater beat-to-beat changes in blood pressure had smaller brain volumes in areas tied to memory, and higher levels of a protein linked to nerve-cell injury."Even when blood pressure is well-controlled with medication, the rapid fluctuation in blood pressure from heartbeat to heartbeat is associated with worse memory and signs of brain shrinkage and brain cell injury," USC Professor Daniel Nation, senior author of the study, told Fox News Digital."Blood pressure isn’t static; it’s always adapting to the body’s needs," he added in a press release. "But as we age, that regulation can become less precise."The study included 105 adults between… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - Maldives bans smoking for younger generations

- Viral ‘energy booster’ has doctors divided — here’s what to know before trying itCoenzyme Q10, better known as CoQ10, is a trending supplement touted for boosting energy and heart health — but how do the benefits stack up to the risks?CoQ10 is a natural compound found inside every cell, where it helps turn food into usable energy. It also acts as an antioxidant, helping to protect cells from everyday wear and tear, according to multiple health sources.Because CoQ10 levels naturally dip with age, and may drop even more with certain medications, many people reach for supplements, which are often marketed for heart health, energy, muscle recovery and even brain protection.COMMON PRESCRIPTION DRUGS LINKED TO SURGE IN FALL-RELATED DEATH RATES AMONG SENIORSBut before you toss a bottle into your cart, here’s what cardiologists and health experts have to say about it.According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), CoQ10 plays an important role inside the body, but there is inconclusive clinical… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.23 hours ago
- Experimental serum shows promise in reversing baldness within 20 daysA cure for baldness could be on the horizon.Researchers from Taiwan University say they have discovered a serum that could potentially regrow hair in just 20 days.The study, published in the journal Cell Metabolism, showed that fat cells under the skin can restart hair growth.NEW STEM CELL THERAPY SHOWS ‘PROMISING’ RESULTS FOR TREATING HAIR LOSS IN PRECLINICAL TRIALSThe researchers used mouse skin samples to monitor changes to the fat tissue under the skin, as well as to the hair follicles and the cells that help hair grow, after they caused small injuries to trigger certain reactions, according to a press release.After skin injury, fat cells began breaking down stored fat in a process called lipolysis. Fatty acids were then released into the skin, which acted as a signal for hair stem cells to grow.When the scientists stopped the fat cells from breaking down fat, it prevented hair from growing.MEN GOING… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.1 day ago
