How about plastic for dinner? It is showing up in mussels from the Arctic to China, and ending up on our plates
While some moules et frites (mussels and fries) sounds delicious, the dish probably wouldn’t be as appetizing if every other bite had plastic in it. According to a recent study, mussels from the European Arctic to China are contaminated with “tiny bits of plastic.” Mussels in Arctic waters contain the most plastic of all specimens […]

Balanced potassium levels found to be critical to circadian rhythm processes, including sleep
Like other cells in the body, red blood cells follow circadian rhythms (24-hour biological clocks). These circadian rhythms alter cell activity from day to night. But unlike other cells, red blood cells do not have DNA. Red blood cells also lack the “clock genes” which control rhythms. It was a mystery when it came to […]

Anthropologists discover how teeth reveal vitamin D levels: X-rays can now be used to check for deficiency
We often take care of our oral health to make sure that our breath stays fresh, but did you know that dental X-rays can be used to determine vitamin D deficiencies (rickets)? While this is a grave health concern that often goes undiagnosed, Lori D’Ortenzio and Megan Brickley, anthropologists from McMaster University, have revealed that it can be […]

Consciousness, cognitive function, memory storage: Scientists study the role of the thalamus
It is a fact that the thalamus, which is located in the center of the brain, is the “relay center” that delivers incoming sensory information so the other parts of the brain can process it. However, clinical findings have implied that certain sections of the thalamus could also have a crucial role in consciousness and cognitive […]

After a stroke, brain exercise is key: Virtual reality training found to be effective supplemental therapy for regaining movement
Aside from enhancing a player’s immersion when it comes to video games, a study has recently determined that virtual reality (VR) can also be used to “improve arm and hand movement after a stroke.” VR training is shown to be just as effective as regular therapy and study author Iris Brunner, Ph.D., of Aarhus University, Hammel Neurocenter […]

We know air pollution contributes to disease; now a new study finds air toxicity also causes psychological stress
Studies have shown that air pollution can negatively impact our respiratory health, and researchers from the University of Washington (UW) have recently discovered another adverse side effect of air pollution. Toxic air seems to affect mental health, especially if there is a high level of particulates in the air. Anjum Hajat, an assistant professor of epidemiology in the […]
