Fatty fish, lean protein, soluble fiber and softened foods may support gut health in people with ulcerative colitis.Ulcerative colitis requires a personalized approach—there’s no one-size-fits-all diet.For the best care, work closely with a registered dietitian and gastroenterologist. Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that can cause inflammation, ulcers and damage in the large intestine. Although diet is only one piece of the puzzle, choosing the right foods may help manage your symptoms. Like many other digestive disorders, which foods feel good or trigger discomfort is highly individual. For this reason, meeting with a registered dietitian can be especially…

Biograph partners with Caristo Diagnostics to bring CaRi-Heart to the US and open preventive pathways in cardiology. Cardiovascular disease remains the leading global cause of death, and much of today’s prevention still waits for plaque to appear before action is taken. Caristo Diagnostics’ CaRi-Heart technology, already in use across Europe, detects inflammation around the coronary arteries from cardiac CT scans – a shift from plaque-first to inflammation-first models that promises earlier and more precise risk stratification. Now Biograph, a preventive health and diagnostics clinic in the US, is partnering with Caristo to run the first US study of the technology…

RESEARCH HIGHLIGHT 30 September 2025 The elements formed from a star’s demise shape the structure of the planets that rise from the ashes.
Research has consistently shown that the Mediterranean diet offers numerous health benefits, including lowering the risk of chronic disease and improving gut and brain health.[1] A new study suggests that following a “green” Mediterranean diet that includes a few specific superfoods and fewer animal products could slow cognitive aging and protect the brain.[2]Several factors influence brain age, including actual (chronological) age, genetics, and lifestyle, says Dafna Pachter, a PhD student at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev in Israel and the study’s first author. “We have ways to influence brain age, and that was the purpose of the trial: to examine how…
Julie Andrews’ carrot cake recipe replaces butter with protein-rich tofu in the frosting.The orange-zested tofu frosting pairs with toasted coconut for a flavorful, creamy finish.Using tofu cuts fat and adds up to 35g of protein to the cake, or almost 4g per slice. The United Service Organizations (USO) has been helping people serving in the military and their families since 1941. You might know the USO for its history of providing celebrity entertainment for troops serving overseas. But the organization also tapped some of their favorite entertainers to contribute to The USO’s Celebrity Cookbook, a 1992 collection of 200 recipes…
Credit: selvanegra/Getty Images Researchers at the University of Strathclyde, Scotland, and the Italian Institute of Technology have developed a fiber-optic technique to detect amyloid plaques in the brains of freely moving mice. The new technique, published in Neurophotonics, uses the fluorescent dye Methoxy-X04, which binds specifically to amyloid fibrils and can cross the blood-brain barrier, allows researchers to track the presence and distribution of plaques in the brains of mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease. The team’s findings demonstrated that fiber photometry, which today is typically used to measure neural activity, can be adapted to detect molecular pathology in Alzheimer’s mouse…
Broderick’s recipe calls for puréeing the soup after adding tortillas for extra creaminess.His tortilla soup blends blackened tomatoes, jalapeño, spices and corn tortillas.The soup can be made vegetarian by using veggie stock and skipping chicken or sour cream. Matthew Broderick may be known for his iconic turn as Ferris Bueller in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, but his skills as a cook have flown a bit more under the radar.
