Study shows more coffee helps reduce muscle wastage in ageing men.


Sarcopenia is an age-related loss of muscle mass and strength. Coffee has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that have been shown to be inversely related to the mechanism of sarcopenia. In animal studies coffee attenuated the reduction of age-related muscle weight and muscle power, and stimulated regeneration of injured muscle compared to controls. Furthermore, pro-inflammatory mediators such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin 6 decreased after coffee treatment In this study with a sample consisted of 1,781 men who were at least 60 years of age, com...

Mothers BPA levels linked with birth defects.


Evidence from animal studies shows that prenatal exposure to bisphenol A (BPA), a ubiquitous endocrine-disrupting chemical, is associated with adverse reproductive outcomes in females and males. In females exposure during early gestation, a critical period for reproductive development, is of particular concern. The Anogenital distance (AGD) is a sensitive biomarker of the fetal hormonal balance and a measure of reproductive toxicity in animal studies. In some studies, the daughters of BPA-exposed dams have shorter AGD than controls. The results of this study showed BPA w...

Walnuts lower the rick of heart attack and stroke.


Many studies have now shown that nut consumption has consistently been found to be associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and mortality. In this meta-analysis they combined 10 trials involving 374 participants and showed nut consumption significantly improved FMD (This is an indicator of the endothelial tissue on the inside of the arteries). Further analyses showed the real benefits were from the walnuts. Among members of the nut family, walnuts have been found to be particularly promising in terms of health benefits.

One night poor sleep increases amyloid beta, a brain protein associated with Alzheimer’s disease.


The latest research shows just one night poor sleep increases the protein amyloid beta which is associated with AD. However, a week of tossing and turning leads to an increase in another brain protein, tau, which research has linked to brain damage in Alzheimer’s and other neurological diseases. The brains of people with Alzheimer’s are dotted with plaques of amyloid beta protein and tangles of tau protein, which together cause brain tissue to atrophy and die. Amyloid plaque formation, an early necessary step in Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis, is associated with ...

Coffee consumption good for ageing


Coffee, one of the world's most consumed beverages, has potential antiaging effects. A recent study in mice confirms a lot of the human studies that aged mice that consumed either caffeine-containing regular or decaffeinated coffee had decreased plasma-free fatty acids (blood fat levels) and increased metabolism which is closely associated with aging, in the liver. In addition, consumption of regular coffee increased the food and water intake, locomotor activity, volume of oxygen consumption, and respiration exchange ratio of aged mice. Moreover, coffee consumption by...

Europe says BPA (bisphenol A) is an endocrine disruptor and needs to be regulated more heavily


BPA has received a lot of media attention over the last decade, primarily the effects of this chemical on our reproductive health and infants. This week the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has classified bisphenol A, a chemical found in many common plastic products, as an endocrine disruptor and a ‘substance of very high concern’ due to its “probable serious effects to human health which give rise to an equivalent level of concern to carcinogenic, mutagenic, toxic to reproduction substances”. France banned BPA in baby bottles in 2010 and in food containers in...

Toxic Teflon


Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are persistent synthetic chemicals that are widely used in industrial applications and often detectable in humans. Some PFASs have a long half-life (how long it takes for half of the chemical to break down and be eliminated from the body) in humans. For example, the half-life of perfluorooctanoate (PFOA- which is used in the production of teflon), perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), and perfluorohexanesulfonate (PFHxS) has been estimated at 3.8, 5.4, and 8.5 years, respectively. That is, they will be in your body for a man...

Phthalates one step closer to being banned in Europe.


In 2015 The EU banned the use of 4 phthalates (butylbenzyl phthalate (BBP), di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), and diisobutyl phthalate (DIBP)) but companies could seek—and have obtained—continued-use authorizations if there are no safer alternatives. However, very recently on June 20 2017, the EU went further and voted to remove the chemicals from consumer products that contain the phthalates at levels greater than 0.1% by weight by getting rid of any exemptions. Phthalates are industrial chemicals often used to soften plastics in toys, hous...
