Your diet may affect more than just your weight. It could also change your biological age. A new study found that older adults appeared biologically younger after only four weeks on a lower-fat diet emphasizing plant-based proteins, with reductions of up to 3 years in biological age.
Do you try to eat a healthy diet but can’t resist that sugary treat? Those foods laden with sugar may be sabatoging your effort to be healthy. As concerns rise over the lasting health effects of modern diets, researchers are studying how eating habits shape memory and brain function.

Consuming large amounts of ultra-processed foods may harm muscle health, according to new research. These foods are typically high in sugar and salt and often include various additives. While much of the existing research has focused on other health effects, the link between ultra-processed foods and muscle quality has received less attention.

Results from a large-scale study indicate that individuals who extended their overnight fasting window and consumed breakfast earlier in the day exhibited a greater likelihood of having a lower body mass index in subsequent years.
New researchhighlights the connection between home cooking and brain health. It reveals that cooking at home more often is associated with a lower risk of dementia.Past research already shows that home cooking supports good health, and these latest findings indicate it could play a key role in lowering dementia incidence.
Although memory loss often comes with age, its onset and severity vary widelyand the extent can differ dramatically between individuals. Some people stay sharp into their 90s, while others decline as early as their 50s. A groundbreaking new study points to the bacteria living in our gut as an unexpected source.
