The study, which used data from 103,389 people, says that every hour counts when it comes to your mealtimes.Conti… Continue reading Earlier meal times linked to lower risk of cardiovascular disease
Scientists fed fruit flies a diet to make them extra plump. In their old age, the researchers put them on a diet and found remarkable results. If the findings transfer to humans, it might mean we can improve our health at any age by cutting calories.Co… Continue reading Study shows it might never be too late to live longer by dieting
Already equipped with an impressive sonar system, new research reveals that dolphins have an extra ability that evolves as they mature in the space where their baby whiskers once were. The super sense may help them navigate and find hidden food sources… Continue reading New dolphin super power discovered
It’s generally considered a good thing to have elevated levels of HDL cholesterol, also commonly referred to as “good” cholesterol. But new research indicates that when those HDL levels climb too high, dementia could be an unwanted side effect.Continue… Continue reading Too much ‘good’ cholesterol could be bad for dementia, says study
While it’s known that regular walking can help you ward off diabetes, a new study attempts to quantify the speed that maximizes the exercise’s benefits. It turns out a little extra pep may go a long way toward cutting your risk of the disease.Continue … Continue reading Speed counts when walking to beat diabetes, says new study
The Earth’s atmosphere has been blasted by the second strongest ultrahigh-energy cosmic ray (UHECR) to ever be observed. While its exact origins remain unknown, astrophysicists are pointing the finger at the Local Void, a fundamentally empty area of th… Continue reading Did the Local Void shoot a monster extreme-energy cosmic ray our way?
There aren’t any organizations other than NASA that can claim they are operating on two different planets (at least none we know of from here on Earth). The space agency is now using that reach to create better helicopter blades on Earth and to push th… Continue reading Better rotors, higher heights thanks to NASA’s dual-planet presence
Despite overall improved mortality rates, the number of people found at home so decomposed that it is impossible to determine their cause of death is on the rise in parts of the UK. A new study led by University of Oxford researchers tries to parse the… Continue reading Decomposed bodies found at home are on the rise in England and Wales
Earlier this year, it was reported that the Earth was hit by the brightest gamma-ray bursts seen since the dawn of civilization. Now, a team of astronomers has assigned a value to the energy contained in those blasts and it’s staggering to say the leas… Continue reading Astonishing energy of BOAT gamma rays revealed
