Mediterranean diet with a dairy twist shows promise in lowering heart disease risk

An 8-week study found that a Mediterranean diet supplemented with dairy foods altered specific gut bacteria and positively impacted systolic blood pressure in Australians at high risk of cardiovascular disease. The findings suggest that this MedDairy diet could be an effective strategy for reducing cardiovascular risks.

Meclofenamate shows promise in treating abnormal respiratory mucus

Our respiratory system is lined with a thin fluid layer called mucus on the inside. The mucus protects us from inhaling harmful and unwanted airborne agents from germs to pollutants; it achieves this feat due to its unique gel-like texture imparted by proteins called mucins.

Mutations in AGC kinase motif linked to colorectal cancer growth

Cancer spreads throughout the human body in cunning, almost militaristic, ways. For example, it can manipulate our genetic make-up, take over specific cell-to-cell signaling processes, and mutate key enzymes to promote tumor growth, resist therapies, and hasten its spread from the original site to the bloodstream or other organs.
