Keto diet cut liver fat by 67% in a clinical trial
Keto diet cut liver fat by 67% in a clinical trial
A ketogenic diet outperformed Mediterranean and low-fat diets in several measures of metabolic health during a clinical trial involving people with obesity, prediabetes, and fatty liver disease. All three groups lost about 10% of their body weight, but keto reduced liver fat by 67%, compared with 45% for the other diets. About half of the keto group also no longer qualified as having prediabetes after four to five months.

Long-term melatonin use linked to 90% higher heart failure risk
Long-term melatonin use linked to 90% higher heart failure risk
People with chronic insomnia who used melatonin long term had a roughly 90% higher risk of developing heart failure over five years, according to a large preliminary study. The findings do not prove melatonin causes heart problems, but they raise new questions about the safety of taking the popular sleep supplement for extended periods.

Drop your favorite perspective-shifting reads about animals and the natural world below. 📚👇💜🐺 For generations, human assumptions about sex, gender, power, and hierarchy shaped not only how we talked about animals; but what scientists looked for in the first place. 🐺 From the myth of the alpha male, to what gender dynamics look like across species, these books demonstrate how sexism and prejudice shaped our perceptions of science. These books challenge narratives from different perspectives, from evolutionary biology and animal behavior to feminist and multispecies thought. 🌿 Because nature doesn’t give us one universal social order!

A 10-year longitudinal study found that women who had sex or masturbated at least once a week were 28% less likely to experience early menopause compared to those who did it less than once a month. Scientists believe that sexual activity is signaling to the body that pregnancy is still possible.

Testosterone heightens neural sensitivity to social inclusion and exclusion, study finds. Healthy men who received testosterone showed amplified brain activity related to empathy for others’ inclusion and exclusion experiences, even though their self-reported feelings of empathy remained unchanged.
