Scientists have discovered that the body's cellular recycling system behaves very differently during aging than previously believed, with higher activity sometimes linked to worse physical health. A small study suggests that even gentle exercise could help restore more youthfu...
A new study helps clarify the weight-loss impact of diet drinks and dispel a popular myth about artificial sweeteners. As it turns out, zero-sugar beverages are neither nutritional villains nor magical cures for obesity—but they still might help you slim down.
Scientists have uncovered a hidden layer of organization in the brain by creating the first detailed 3D map of its lipids, the fatty molecules essential for brain structure and communication. By analyzing millions of measurements from mouse brains, researchers identified 539 d...
She was told she was chasing the impossible. She persisted through poverty, skepticism, and 25,000 failed attempts. In the end, Ada Yonath unlocked one of biology’s most elusive structures: the ribosome, transforming our understanding of how antibiotics work and paving the way...
Scientists have created a new coating for mitochondria that preserves their ability to produce energy, potentially opening the door to new treatments for diseases involving these tiny cellular powerhouses. The technology could one day help transfer healthy mitochondria into da...
The analysis of the 2025 National Youth Tobacco Survey found that 5.2% of students currently vaped, while approximately 460,000 used nicotine pouches. The post Geek Bar Leads with Youth Vapers first appeared on Tobacco Reporter.

Scientists discovered that declining levels of a protein called Menin may help drive aging, and restoring it in older mice reversed several age-related changes in just 30 days. Even more surprisingly, supplementing with a simple amino acid called D-serine improved memory and l...
Paracelsus taught us that “the dose makes the poison.” A new analysis of respiratory-virus infection suggests that biology requires an important qualifier: where an exposure enters the body and which tissues encounter it first can matter even more than how much arrives. Dose d...
