“The MRI studies revealed that infants of women who consumed higher quantities of omega-3 fatty acids had greater brain volume in specific regions of the frontal cortex and corpus callosum – areas of the brain involved in consciousness, communication, memory, attention, and integration of motor, sensory, and cognitive performance between the brain's hemispheres, respectively.”

“In order to study the effects of irisin supplementation, the investigators conducted a second experiment in which they administered exogenous (i.e., made outside the body) irisin to a strain of mice who develop an Alzherimer’s-like dementia at an early age due to loss of FNDC5 function.”

“A recent study found that people who garden sleep better than those who engage in other exercises or don't exercise. Researchers collected information about the sleep habits of more than 16,000 adults in the U.S. They categorized the participants as gardeners, exercisers, or non-exercisers.”

“A recent study found that cognitive skills—specifically math and reading skills—actually improve into one's forties before experiencing a decline, and using these skills regularly is crucial in determining how abilities change over time.”

“Findings from the study indicated that for every additional four hours of physical activity per week – roughly 35 minutes per day – the risk of having a new episode of depression were reduced by 17 percent.”

“Often simply called "wearables," these devices can transmit information to a physician, researcher, or user in real time, facilitating data collection and allowing the wearer to actively participate in tracking and maintaining their health.”

“My team put together a short animated video explaining how inflammation plays a causal role in depression. I hope you check it out and perhaps we will also find that it’s also visually interesting enough to reach a wider, interested group of people.”

“The gut-brain axis, a bidirectional signaling pathway between the gastrointestinal tract and the nervous system, plays key roles in human health. Key elements of this pathway are the tens of trillions of microbes that comprise the intestinal microbiota, the composition of which likely changes with age.”

“From pregnancy week 24 until one week after birth, the women received capsules containing either 2.4 grams per day of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (55% EPA and 37% DHA) or olive oil as a placebo.”

“Here we investigate the potential involvement of hippocampal neurogenesis in the anxiolytic effect of CBD in mice subjected to 14 d chronic unpredictable stress (CUS). Repeated administration of CBD (30 mg/kg i.p., 2 h after each daily stressor) increased hippocampal progenitor proliferation and neurogenesis in wild-type mice.”
