Rising tide of “brain fog”: Young Americans report sharp uptick in cognitive struggles
Self-reported cognitive difficulties (concentration, memory, decision-making) are rising—not just in older adults but notably among younger Americans—and are interfering with work, schooling and daily life. Analysis of over 4.5 million BRFSS survey responses (2013–2023, excluding 2020 and those reporting depression) shows prevalence climbed from 5.3 percent to 7.4 percent; among ages 18–39, it rose from […]

Consuming NUTS can support cognitive health and weight control, research finds
A recent trial found that eating 50g of walnuts at breakfast improved memory and reaction times in young adults, with effects lasting throughout the day. Studies show that including nuts in calorie-restricted diets does not hinder weight loss—and may even improve outcomes like cholesterol and blood pressure compared to nut-free diets. Nuts are rich in […]

Taiwanese doctor sounds alarm on rising incidence of early-onset gastrointestinal cancers
Two otherwise healthy men—one 55, the other in his early 50s—were later diagnosed with advanced gastrointestinal (GI) cancers after initially mild or ambiguous symptoms went unheeded.

Microplastics found in women’s follicular fluid and men’s seminal fluid
A study in Salerno, Italy, found microplastics (MPs) in 14 out of 18 women’s ovarian follicular fluid undergoing IVF. The particles were under 10 µm in size, averaging about 4.5 µm in diameter. The concentration of MPs in these samples averaged about 2,191 particles per milliliter, with a range from 0 to 7,181 p/ml. There […]

Phthalates may be helping breast cancer grow, spread and resist treatment
Phthalates are synthetic chemicals found in many plastics, cosmetics, packaging and medical materials. They make plastics flexible and help fragrances last, so exposure is very common. Recent research shows phthalates act as endocrine disruptors and may contribute to breast cancer in multiple ways – activation of cancer?linked signaling pathways, mimicking estrogen, increasing cell survival and […]

New study offers some encouraging news for breast cancer survivors
Women diagnosed with breast cancer before age 50 have about an 86 percent higher risk of developing a second primary cancer (outside the breast) compared to same-age women without breast cancer; for those diagnosed after 50, the risk increase is about 17 percent. Some second cancers are much more likely, including: cancer in the opposite […]
