While it has been well known that how much you eat can impact your overall longevity, new research is indicating that when you take in your calories can also affect your lifespan. This revelation […]
Intermittent Fasting Improves Memory, May Slow Cognitive Decline
An intriguing new study published in Molecular Biology showed that intermittent fasting improves memory — especially long-term memory retention. Conducted on mice at King’s College London by researchers in the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience, the study also noted that intermittent fasting was associated with the development of new adult hippocampal neurons. Researchers theorize […]
Melatonin Protects Mitochondria From Deleterious Impact of Coronaviruses
New research sheds light on connections between mitochondrial health and performance, melatonin and coronavirus impact, specifically demonstrating how melatonin protects mitochondria, potentially reducing the impact of coronaviruses. In the study, published by the medical review journal Pharmacology and Therapeutics, researchers found that coronaviruses seem to target the mitochondria and melatonin appears to offer protection against […]
