The results indicated that participants taking the supplement showed beneficial shifts in microbial composition and diversity, demonstrating “significant modulation of the microbiome–gut–brain axis,” wrote researchers from Akay Natural Ingredients, who funded the study, and other institutions in India.“These findings support the potential of ASF as a safe and effective dietary supplement for gut and cognitive health in individuals with FD,” they added in the journal Medicine (Baltimore).Functional dyspepsia (FD) is a functional disorder of brain–gut interaction that affects approximately 8.4% of the global population. Bidirectional communication between the microbiome, gut, and brain has been investigated in many gastrointestinal disorders. Previous…
Be the first to rate & review! These Smashed Green Beans with Parmesan & Balsamic take a flavorful twist on a classic roasted side. Smashing the beans creates extra surface area that catches a coating of Parmesan and garlic, adding a savory crunch. A drizzle of tangy balsamic glaze ties it all together with a sweet-savory finish. If you follow a vegetarian diet, look for Parmesan made without animal rennet. Published on November 14, 2025

As China’s cities become taller, bigger and more modern, they face a major problem: the ground beneath them is sinking. A 2024 study1 found that nearly half of the land under the country’s major cities is subsiding at a “moderate” rate of more than 3 millimetres a year, and 16% is experiencing “rapid” sinking, meaning greater than 10 millimetres annually.Many of these cities, such as Tianjin, Fuzhou and Ningbo, are located by the sea. The issue of land subsidence is so pressing that the study projected that one in ten residents of the country’s coastal cities will be living below…
In classical Greek αποφράζω, αποφράσσω, or αποφράττω (depending on the dialect that you spoke) meant to block something up, with medical connotations. It could refer to any type of blockage—arterial, airway, intestinal, ureteric. Hippocrates, for example, recommended blocking up an anal fistula with lint, as one form of treatment. However, in modern Greek it can also mean to unplug something or to remove a blockage, for example in a drain. So, when a cigarette advert claims that smoking “clogs” your arteries, it is suggesting that it clears them, not the other way round. The problem arises from the preposition απο-,…

The notion that bacteria could exist within brain tissue was once considered impossible. A new Nature Medicine study from MD Anderson overturns that assumption, revealing that bacterial signatures can be found within tumor cells and the surrounding microenvironment. “This work opens a new dimension in our understanding of brain tumor biology,” said Jennifer Wargo, MD, professor of Surgical Oncology and Genomic Medicine and core member of the James P. Allison Institute™. “By mapping…
There are more candidates on the waitlist for a liver transplant than there are available organs, yet about half the time a match is found with a donor who dies after cardiac arrest following the removal of life support, the transplant must be cancelled. For this type of organ donation, called donation after circulatory death (DCD), the time between the removal of life support and death must not exceed 30–45 minutes, or the surgeons will often reject the liver because of the increased risk of complications to the recipient. Stanford Medicine researchers have now developed a machine learning (ML)-based model…
Cancer cases in young adults have surged nearly 80% worldwide over the past three decades. And while population growth accounts for some of that increase, the trend is undeniable: more people in their 20s, 30s, and 40s are developing diseases we once thought of as problems for our parents’ and grandparents’ generations.
