Most Americans risk Lyme disease in their own backyards by skipping simple tick prevention

A large U.S. survey found that most adults and children frequently engage in outdoor activities that expose them to ticks, yet only a minority consistently use protective measures. Despite widespread awareness of Lyme disease, prevention behaviors remain inconsistent, especially during routine yard time.

A little walking goes a long way: 4,000 steps linked to lower mortality in older women

Older women who achieved at least 4,000 steps per day for just one or two days each week showed significantly lower risks of death and cardiovascular disease. The study suggests that total step volume, not frequency, drives these benefits, redefining what “enough movement” means for health.

Exposure to bright light at night can increase heart disease risk

A new study led by Flinders University has found that being exposed to bright light at night can significantly increase the chances of developing serious heart problems, including heart attacks, strokes and heart failure.

Physically fit individuals may better cope with dehydration stress

Individuals who are physically fit may be better equipped to handle the negative effects of dehydration, according to research from the University of California, Riverside. In a study using selectively bred "high-runner" mice, the scientists found that fitter animals increased their voluntary running activity when deprived of water - a finding that could have implications for human performance and health under environmental stress.

Smarter insulin pump systems help stabilize glucose in young patients, study reveals

A Polish study comparing insulin pump technologies in children with type 1 diabetes found that advanced hybrid closed-loop systems achieved superior glycemic stability compared to predictive low glucose suspend systems. Despite technological advances, poor diet and low physical activity still undermine optimal metabolic control.
