Western diet fuels IBD by derailing the microbiome - can precision nutrition turn the tide?

This review examines how Western dietary patterns, high in ultra-processed foods, salt, and unhealthy fats, disrupt gut microbiota, impair immune regulation, and contribute to the global rise of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It highlights systems biology and nutritional epidemiology as essential tools to develop personalised dietary strategies and shift IBD care from treatment to prevention.

Digital test plus blood biomarker boosts accuracy of Alzheimer’s diagnosis in primary care

A Swedish-led study validated a self-administered digital cognitive test (BioCog) in primary care, showing it can accurately detect objective cognitive impairment before blood biomarkers are applied. When paired with a targeted amyloid blood test, this stepwise pathway outperformed standard assessments for diagnosing clinical Alzheimer’s disease.

Why your diet may be exporting extinction abroad without you knowing

This global analysis shows that the biodiversity impact of producing 1 kg of food can vary by up to 1,000-fold, with ruminant meat and tropical luxury crops carrying the highest extinction risks. Using the LIFE metric, researchers reveal how national diets and food imports contribute to hidden biodiversity losses, highlighting dietary shifts as a powerful conservation tool.

Can drones become the frontline of medical delivery in flood-hit regions?

Researchers modeled drone-based medication delivery across Virginia’s isolated Eastern Shore, finding it could cut travel times from nearly 50 minutes by car to under 10 minutes for most residents. By mapping age, flood risk, and access barriers, the study highlights how targeted drone networks could improve health equity in rural, disaster-prone regions.

From stress to susceptibility: how COVID lockdowns shaped teen vaping risk

Teenagers who experienced higher COVID-19 stress during remote schooling were more likely to become open to trying vaping, which significantly increased their odds of using e-cigarettes and cannabis two years later. The study reveals that susceptibility, not immediate use, was the critical pathway linking early stress to later vaping behaviors.

Could belonging be a biological shield? Researchers uncover aging clues

Researchers analyzing over 2,100 adults from the MIDUS cohort found that individuals with higher cumulative social advantage, spanning community ties, family relationships, and religious support, showed slower biological aging and lower systemic inflammation. The findings suggest that long-term social resources may become biologically embedded, influencing molecular pathways linked to longevity.
