 Why eating more oats can rapidly reduce cholesterol levelsWhy eating more oats can rapidly reduce cholesterol levels
 
Oat consumption boosts gut microbiota-derived phenolic metabolites, driving cholesterol-lowering effects and improving lipid metabolism in metabolic syndrome.
 
 
 Olive oil type matters for cognition and gut health in older adultsOlive oil type matters for cognition and gut health in older adults
 
Higher intake of virgin and total olive oil was associated with modest but significant improvements in cognitive performance over two years in older adults with metabolic syndrome. These associations were partly linked to gut microbiota composition, with specific taxa such as Adlercreutzia contributing a small mediating effect.
 
   When you eat matters: early time-restricted eating improves metabolic healthWhen you eat matters: early time-restricted eating improves metabolic health
 
Time-restricted eating improves several metabolic outcomes compared with usual diets, with benefits observed for body weight, adiposity, blood pressure, insulin, glucose, and triglycerides. Early eating windows consistently outperform late eating, while the optimal duration of food intake remains uncertain.
 
   Three daily servings of full-fat dairy do not worsen weight or blood markersThree daily servings of full-fat dairy do not worsen weight or blood markers
 
This randomized 12-week trial examined whether adding three daily servings of full-fat dairy to diets aligned with Canada’s Food Guide affects body weight, cardiometabolic markers, and nutrient intake in adults with overweight or obesity. Full-fat dairy intake did not adversely affect weight, body composition, or metabolic health and increased calcium and protein intake, supporting dietary compatibility rather than therapeutic benefit.
 
   Health Benefits and Nutritional Value of Mamey SapoteHealth Benefits and Nutritional Value of Mamey Sapote
 
Mamey sapote is a lesser-consumed tropical fruit with a distinctive phytochemical profile rich in dietary fiber, carotenoids, and polyphenols that support antioxidant activity and provitamin A intake. Current evidence highlights bioavailability and compositional strengths while underscoring the need for long-term human studies to substantiate metabolic and anti-inflammatory health claims.

 Gut problems may shape Parkinson’s disease progression through the gut-brain axis
 
Gut problems may shape Parkinson’s disease progression through the gut-brain axisThis narrative review examines how gastrointestinal dysfunction, gut dysbiosis, and altered gut-brain axis signaling are closely associated with the onset and progression of Parkinson’s disease. It synthesizes evidence supporting a possible bottom-up disease model while highlighting integrative, gut-targeted strategies as adjuncts to symptom management rather than proven disease-modifying therapies.

 FDA warns consumers about fake cancer cures sold online
 
FDA warns consumers about fake cancer cures sold onlineBeware of products claiming to cure cancer on websites or social media platforms, such as Facebook and Instagram. According to Nicole Kornspan, M.P.H., a consumer safety officer at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), they're rampant these days.
 
 
 Why exercise is essential for restoring fitness after GLP-1-based weight loss
 
Why exercise is essential for restoring fitness after GLP-1-based weight lossThis randomized controlled trial shows that structured moderate-to-vigorous exercise, alone or combined with liraglutide, improves physical function and cardiorespiratory fitness after diet-induced weight loss in adults with obesity. In contrast, liraglutide alone sustains weight loss but does not significantly improve measured physical fitness outcomes.

 Menopausal hormone therapy linked to greater weight loss with tirzepatide
 
Menopausal hormone therapy linked to greater weight loss with tirzepatideA new study led by Mayo Clinic found that postmenopausal women receiving menopausal hormone therapy lost 35% more weight while taking tirzepatide, a Food and Drug Administration-approved drug for the treatment of overweight and obesity.
 
 
 How modern lifestyles reprogram the gut microbiome and shape disease risk
 
How modern lifestyles reprogram the gut microbiome and shape disease riskModern lifestyle factors such as circadian disruption, sleep deprivation, stress, and exercise reshape the gut bacteriome and its metabolic outputs. These microbiome changes are linked to immune, metabolic, and cancer-related pathways, largely through evidence from animal models and observational human studies.

 Evidence links gut microbiome changes to Alzheimer’s progression
 
Evidence links gut microbiome changes to Alzheimer’s progressionHuman studies consistently report gut microbiome differences in mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease, but findings vary widely by cohort, methods, and taxa. Heterogeneity and limited longitudinal data prevent causal inference, highlighting the need for functional profiling and well-designed intervention trials.
