Have you heard of microplastics entering your body through the food and water? According to the World Health Organization (WHO), microplastics have been detected in human blood, lungs, and other organs, showing how widespread exposure has become. Nevertheless, in water, many people use high-tech water filters to get rid of them. However, the chances of microplastics still remaining there. In a recent study, it was shown that microplastics could be removed from water by using "Moringa [...]

Ultra-processed foods may be doing more harm than we know. A new study has linked ultra-processed food to faster cognitive decline and a higher risk of dementia. It also found that even a modest rise in ultra-processed food intake was tied to a measurable drop in attention and focus. The study was conducted by researchers from Monash University, the University of Sao Paulo, and Deakin University and published in Alzheimer's & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring. The study [...]

A new study led by Monash University in collaboration with University of São Paulo and Deakin University has revealed a concerning link between ultra-processed foods and reduced concentration levels. The research, published in Alzheimer's Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment Disease Monitoring, examined over 2,100 middle-aged and older adults without dementia to understand how diet shapes brain performance. A Small Change, A Noticeable Impact The findings suggest that even a modest rise [...]

New research at Monash University, along with the University of São Paulo and Deakin University, shows that consuming large amounts of ultra-processed foods may negatively affect your ability to concentrate. The study, published in Alzheimer's Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment Disease Monitoring, examined over 2,100 Australian adults who did not have dementia but were middle-aged or older. The researchers investigated how diet influenced their cognitive abilities. The findings revealed [...]

The research, published in Alzheimer's & Dementia: Diagnosis, Assessment & Disease Monitoring, examined over 2,100 middle-aged and older adults without dementia to understand how diet shapes brain performance. A Small Change, A Noticeable Impact The findings suggest that even a modest rise in ultra-processed food intake can affect attention span. For example, adding something as simple as a daily packet of chips could lead to measurable dips in focus. Researchers used standard [...]

Scientists in Brazil have found that seeds from the moringa tree — a plant native to India and widely consumed across tropical regions for its nutritional value — can pull microplastics out of water with an effectiveness that rivals conventional chemical treatments. The findings, published in ACS Omega, a journal of the American Chemical Society, come from researchers at the Institute of Science and Technology of São Paulo State University (ICT-UNESP) in São Jose dos Campos. How It [...]

In a groundbreaking study, researchers have successfully generated new whole-genome sequencing data from 128 Indigenous American individuals, encompassing 45 distinct populations and 28 language families across eight Latin American countries. This collaborative effort saw sequencing conducted at the Beijing Genomics Institute in China and Dasa Genômica in Brazil, utilizing advanced technologies such as BGISEQ-500 and Illumina NovaSeq 6000, achieving an impressive average sequencing depth of [...]
