Timing of Mineral Intake Can Influence Cancer Risk
Modern science is approaching a deeper understanding of diet and health. There is a growing body of evidence supporting the concept that the connections between diet and health are about more than just what you eat. Medical scientists and researchers, especially those specializing in chrononutrition, are learning that when you eat is also important. One […]
A Disrupted Circadian Rhythm Impacts Healthy Fat, Fat Storage
A new study conducted by an international team of researchers demonstrated that the circadian rhythm impacts healthy fat tissue function. The study, recently published in Nature, showed that circadian rhythm disruption, especially when paired with a high fat diet, can have long-term effects on fat tissue and where fat is stored in the body. Fat […]
Daytime Sleepiness Can Predict Risk for Alzheimer’s, Heart Disease and Cancer
Researchers have connected excessive daytime sleepiness to a variety of diseases and health conditions, some quite serious. Sleepiness during the daytime is considered excessive when it happens almost every day for at least three months. There are numerous causes for feeling sleepy during the day, including simply not getting enough sleep. However, when daytime sleepiness […]
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 […]
