 | | Best foods to boost happiness after 50, according to new UK study Older adults who ate more fruits, vegetables, and fish showed higher well-being, especially eudemonic well-being and happiness, in a large UK study. However, most diet–well-being links weakened after accounting for mood, health, and socioeconomic factors. | | | | Climate change is fueling unhealthy sugar consumption in the US As temperatures rise, added sugar intake increases in the U.S., particularly among low-income households, underscoring the need for targeted interventions. | |

| |  | | Discover how bovine colostrum, rich in immune and growth factors, is emerging as a powerful natural ally for boosting immunity, healing the gut, and accelerating recovery in adults. | | | | The relationship between processed red meat and neurodegenerative diseases is complex, with potential risks and protective effects requiring more investigation. | | | | A systematic review shows high-protein oral nutritional supplements can lower complications and hospital stays in cancer patients, improving recovery outcomes. | | | | New research being presented at the Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Vienna, Austria (15-19 September) shows that individuals who are taking semaglutide for weight loss experience less food noise than before. | | | | Researchers analysing Aging Cell data from over 33,000 US adults found a U-shaped link between daily eating window length and mortality. Eating for 11–12 hours per day was tied to the lowest risk, while very short ( | | | | Food insecurity was linked to 73% higher odds of current Long COVID and 30% lower odds of recovery among US adults with prior infection, based on National Health Interview Survey data. Participation in Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) mitigated this association, highlighting food assistance as a potential public health intervention. | | | | Three new technologies to detect and manage African Swine Fever have been unveiled in the Philippines amid ongoing concerns about a vaccine imported from Vietnam. | | | | Researchers used drug-target Mendelian randomization to test whether genetically proxied activation of GLP1R and GIPR influences alcohol-related behaviors. They found that GIPR, especially when combined with GLP1R, was linked to lower binge and heavy drinking, healthier food preferences, improved liver markers, and reduced coronary artery disease risk. | | | | About one-third of U.S. adults consumed fast food on a given day between 2021 and 2023, with an average of 11.7% of daily calories coming from it.

High fruit, vegetable, and full-fat dairy intake appeared protective, while higher poultry, red meat, and fish intake during pregnancy increased risk. | | | | Researchers found that the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis integrates pleasure signals from central amygdala prodynorphin neurons and hunger signals from agouti-related peptide neurons to drive consumption. Manipulating this bed nucleus of the stria terminalis circuit bidirectionally altered food intake and body weight in mice. | | | | New research from the University of Sydney's Charles Perkins Centre has found that genes play an active role in shaping the bacteria found in our gut, questioning the idea that gut health is influenced only by diet. | | | | Patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) often describe the condition as painful, disruptive and frightening. | | | | People living in the UK and following a diet close to the Mediterranean diet are more likely to have better gum health, with potentially lower amounts of gum disease and inflammation. | | | | An estimated 7.2 million Americans over age 65 currently live with Alzheimer's disease (AD).
