Listening to your body: What bloating is really trying to tell you
Bloating is the body’s feedback system, signaling that something in the digestive tract—like imbalance, inflammation or stress—needs attention rather than suppression. Mindful awareness and slower eating can ease bloating by allowing proper digestion and strengthening the gut-brain connection. A balanced gut microbiome is essential for nutrient absorption and overall health; nourishing it with fiber, prebiotics […]

RFK Jr. calls on nations to remove mercury from vaccines at global summit
U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called on all nations to eliminate mercury from vaccines, criticizing the Minamata Convention’s exemption for mercury-based preservatives as a “double standard” that contradicts its mission to prevent mercury exposure. Kennedy highlighted thimerosal—a mercury-based compound used in multi-dose vaccines—as unsafe and inadequately tested in humans, citing hundreds of studies […]

New study suggests long-term melatonin use may raise risk of heart failure and other serious health issues
A study presented at the American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions 2025 found that long-term melatonin use in adults with insomnia may be linked to a higher risk of heart failure and death. Researchers analyzed data from over 130,000 adults using the TriNetX Global Research Network, comparing those who took melatonin for at least a year […]

Walking 5,000 steps a day could delay Alzheimer’s progression by years, study finds
Walking as few as 5,000 steps a day may slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease by several years, according to new Harvard-led research published in Nature. Researchers tracked 296 adults aged 50–90 over nine years, finding that those who walked between 5,001 and 7,500 steps daily delayed cognitive decline by up to seven years. The […]

Florida lawmaker proposes mandate for medical examiners to report recent vaccinations in sudden death cases
Sen. Ileana Garcia’s Senate Bill?188 would require Florida medical examiners to record and report all vaccinations or “emergency countermeasures” given within 90?days before sudden deaths of infants, children and young adults (SIDS, SUID, SDY, SADS). Reported vaccination data would be submitted to the CDC’s SUID/SDY Case Registry and medical examiners face administrative penalties for non?compliance. […]

New landmark study debunks “protective” effects of moderate drinking on the brain
A large new study (observational + genetic) shows that light or moderate alcohol consumption does not protect the brain—and in fact is associated with increased dementia risk. Earlier observational studies that found a U?shaped curve (with moderate drinkers appearing at lower risk) likely suffered from reverse causation: people developing dementia reduce drinking before diagnosis, creating […]

When climate science becomes climate sermon: in defense of skepticism
E&E News publishes an article accusing climate critics of “discrediting” an IPCC author—framing dissent as hostility rather than legitimate scrutiny. Friederike Otto’s research in attributing extreme weather to human-caused climate change is already used in major litigation; her appointment to a lead IPCC role raises questions about impartiality. Critics like Roger Pielke Jr. who question […]

“Supercharged” vitamin K derivatives offer new hope for neurodegenerative diseases
Researchers synthesized a series of hybrid vitamin K analogues (linked with retinoic acid or modified side chains) that show about threefold greater potency in driving neural progenitor cells to differentiate into neurons compared to natural vitamin K (MK-4). Mechanistic studies revealed that vitamin K activates mGluR1-mediated signaling, triggering downstream epigenetic and transcriptional programs that steer […]

New York confirms first locally acquired case of chikungunya virus in six years
New York confirmed its first locally acquired case of chikungunya virus on Oct. 14, marking the first such U.S. case in six years. The patient, a Nassau County resident on Long Island, began symptoms in August without any international travel; health officials believe the virus was likely spread by a local mosquito rather than through […]

Plastic bottles may degrade over time, raising microplastic risks for long-stored water
Plastic bottles, not the water itself, carry a “best before” date (18 months to 2 years) — after which the plastic may begin to degrade and release microplastics. Microplastics (as small as ~2 micrometres) have been found in human lungs, placentas, breast milk and blood, raising concerns about internal exposure. Some researchers link microplastic ingestion […]
