 | | |  A 20-year study of 90,000 adults suggests the type of fish you eat matters A Japanese study following 90,944 adults for an average of 20.8 years found that associations between seafood consumption and mortality varied by fish type and sex. Moderate seafood consumption was linked to lower overall mortality among women, while higher intake of omega-3-rich fish in women and unsalted seafood in men was associated with lower cerebrovascular disease mortality. | | | | |  Yoghurt, coffee and chocolate have something in common, and researchers mapped it across Europe Researchers surveyed 12,646 adults across 53 European countries and found that fermented dairy products were widely consumed, while other fermented foods showed considerable regional differences in popularity and intake. The findings revealed that high consumer prevalence did not necessarily translate into substantial consumption, highlighting the importance of measuring both how many people eat fermented foods and the quantities they consume. | |

| | | | |  Technology can contribute to better treatment for people struggling with anxiety and depression, according to researcher Sandra Klonteig. | | | | |  A review published in Nutrients proposes a seven-pillar precision nutrition framework that combines biological, behavioral, and environmental information to tailor dietary interventions throughout life. The authors identify potential benefits for cardiovascular, respiratory, blood, and sleep health, while emphasizing the need for further clinical trials to establish effective, accessible, and personalized nutritional strategies. | | | | |  Ultraprocessed food intake correlates with increased body fat and vascular brain injury in middle-aged adults, though cognitive performance remains unaffected. | | | | |  A narrative review published in Animal Frontiers highlights beef's contribution to high-quality protein and bioavailable micronutrients, while controlled trials generally found no adverse effects on selected cardiometabolic risk markers, although long-term disease outcomes remain uncertain. | | | | |  A systematic review of 37 studies found that greater adherence to predefined Japanese-style dietary patterns was associated with lower all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, based on pooled evidence from three cohort studies. However, health associations varied according to dietary composition, suggesting that traditional Japanese diet scores alone may not adequately distinguish the potential benefits and risks of different food combinations. | | | | |  Scientists have started work on a new way to fight cold and flu viruses by reprogramming the cells in our immune system to respond faster to infections. | | | | |  Researchers examining 117 father-son pairs from Denmark and Finland identified weak but statistically significant familial associations in several male reproductive traits, including testicular size, sperm concentration, selected hormone levels, and genital measurements. | | | | |  Researchers developed a drug for Alzheimer's disease, and then discovered that the molecule already exists in human blood, and is found in lower levels in cognitively impaired people. | | | | |  A study of 244 Lebanese employees found that higher emotional intelligence was associated with greater job satisfaction, better work–life balance, and stronger work engagement. Statistical analysis identified work–life balance and job satisfaction as pathways linking emotional intelligence to engagement, although the cross-sectional findings cannot establish causation. | | | | |  Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a serious neurodegenerative disease in which the nerve cells that control the body's muscles break down. | | | | |  Researchers analyzing exercise records from 5.17 million Strava users across 65 countries found that recent exercise history was the strongest predictor of whether individuals would meet a weekly physical activity threshold during the COVID-19 pandemic. | | | | |  A new study led by researchers at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center found that a nutritional supplement containing oxaloacetate, a molecule naturally found in the body that helps cells produce energy, may help improve cognitive function and reduce the fatigue experienced by some breast cancer survivors following treatment. | |
