A large genome-wide association study suggests that the choice to follow a strictly vegetarian diet is influenced not only by ethics or culture but also by biology. Researchers analysed genetic data from more than 300 000 adults in the UK…
Senolytics are a class of drugs designed to selectively eliminate senescent cells, which accumulate with age and contribute to aging-related diseases. By clearing these dysfunctional cells, senolytics aim to improve healthspan, reduce inflammation, and potentially delay or prevent age-related conditions…
Narrow waist is consistently described as beautiful in British literature, ancient Indian and Chinese literature. Despite cultural differences, a thin waist is a universal and timeless symbol of feminine beauty, reflecting the evolutionary association between health and attractiveness.
Pretty privilege is the idea that people seen as more attractive receive easier help, warmer reactions, and better chances in school, work, and daily life. People often trust them more at first sight. This comes from the halo effect, a…
New research indicates that overhead tricep extensions are significantly more effective at building muscle compared to cable pushdowns, with up to 40% greater muscle activation. This finding suggests that incorporating overhead tricep extensions into strength training routines can lead to…
Research shows that creatine has many benefits, including help improve strength and power, and support recovery between workouts. Creatine also appears to have a positive effect on some self-reported long COVID symptoms (but not physical fatigue). More research is needed.
Research indicates that certain personality traits are associated with higher levels of intelligence.
