A study suggests that following a “green” Mediterranean diet can help slow down age-related cerebral atrophy. Cerebral atrophy is the loss of brain cells (neurons) and their electrochemical connectors (synapses). This cell loss results in brain shrinkage and decline in cognitive ability. Cerebral atrophy occurs naturally in all humans. The loss of brain cells starts while you’re […]

Study explains how diet, exercise and the endocannabinoid system contribute to healthy aging
Researchers define the human endocannabinoid system (ECS) as a complex cell-signaling system that plays an important role in the development of the central nervous system (CNS), synaptic plasticity — a characteristic of neurons in the brain — and the body’s response to internal and external insults or stressors. The ECS, whose components are widely distributed […]

Study: Link between persistent headache and back pain may be key to a shared treatment for both conditions
Persistent headaches may be linked to persistent lower back pain, revealed a study published in the Journal of Headache and Pain. The study reviewed previous research and found that a person with either one of these conditions is more likely to experience both types of pain than someone without the conditions. This link could help medical scientists come up with treatment that targets […]

Research reveals unlikely connection between oral health and cognitive decline among the elderly
A recent study published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society showed that poor oral health is linked to cognitive decline. Researchers at New York University Rory Meyers College of Nursing, the University of Nevada and Rutgers University found that older Chinese adults in the U.S. who reported teeth symptoms experienced faster cognitive decline than those who reported gum symptoms. This finding underscores […]

Are you resilient? Researchers identify brain receptor crucial to regulating stress response
Repeated exposure to stressful conditions can increase the incidence of mental disorders, such as depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). But scientists have recently discovered a lipid molecule that promotes stress resilience when expressed at high levels in the brain. In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, American researchers reported that sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 3 (S1PR3), which functions as […]
