Why Brittle Bones Aren't Just a Woman's Problem

Bone strength is not just a women’s issue — it’s a foundation of lifelong vitality that too many men lose sight of until it’s too late. Every year, millions of fractures occur in older adults, yet few realize that these breaks often signal a deeper problem: bones that have quietly weakened over time. The first sign is rarely pain. It’s a sudden fall, a small twist, or a minor impact that ends in a break that changes everything — mobility, confidence, and independence.

What makes this problem so concerning is how easily it hides in plain sight. Men, in particular, are rarely screened for bone loss, even though the consequences are often more severe than in women. Years of lifestyle habits — sitting too much, relying on processed food, or neglecting strength training — gradually shift your bone metabolism from rebuilding to erosion.

Calcium Supplements and Dementia - Major Study Busts Long-Held Myth

For decades, older adults have been warned that taking calcium supplements could harm their brains. Those warnings stemmed from small observational studies suggesting calcium might increase dementia risk by promoting vascular calcification or white matter lesions in the brain. Dementia, meaning a progressive decline in memory, reasoning, and behavior that interferes with daily life, affects 57 million people worldwide, according to the World Health Organization.

It’s a devastating condition that robs independence, identity, and connection — so it’s no surprise that any hint of increased risk sparks concern. Calcium, however, is not a nutrient you can simply eliminate. It’s the most abundant mineral in your body and foundational for bone density, heart rhythm, muscle contraction, and nerve signaling. You need enough of it every day, especially as you age. Continued here: https://bit.ly/44dvWrA

Why Is Every Newborn Forced to Get the Dangerous Hepatitis B Vaccine?

Since our society is conditioned to believe all vaccines are "safe and effective" many do not realize the risk and benefits of each vaccine vary greatly. One of the most controversial vaccines has been the Hepatitis B vaccine, which is given to every newborn in the country at their most fragile moment of life despite their risk of contracting hepatitis B being negligible.

Low Metabolism and NAD+ Deficiency Implicated in Wasting Syndrome

Each year, millions of people battling cancer or chronic illness face a hidden, life-draining enemy: their bodies begin to waste away from the inside out. Muscles shrink, energy fades, and strength disappears — even when food intake stays the same. This wasting process, known as cachexia, isn’t caused by poor appetite alone. It reflects a deeper breakdown in your body’s ability to produce and use energy, leaving people weaker by the day despite their best efforts to recover.

What makes cachexia especially devastating is how quietly it develops. Early signs like fatigue, declining stamina, or subtle muscle loss are often dismissed as side effects of aging or illness. Yet behind these symptoms lies a profound shift in metabolism — one that turns your body from a builder into a burner, consuming its own tissues just to keep systems running.

Creativity Can Be a 'Fountain of Youth' for Your Brain

When was the last time you danced or learned to play a musical instrument? How about painting or doing a mural? You may not realize it, but these seemingly mundane hobbies, activities that allow you to exercise your creativity, may be doing more for you than you realize — they’re helping your brain stay young and healthy.

Recent research shows that people who consistently engage in creative tasks tend to have brains that function several years younger than their chronological age. Creative engagement keeps your neural networks active, helping your brain become more adaptable and resilient. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3LPO2JX

Is Hydrogen Water the Future of Health and Longevity?

Molecular hydrogen is a simple molecule — just two atoms bound together. It’s so small that it can diffuse through cell membranes, mitochondria, and even the blood-brain barrier, reaching every part of the body within seconds. Despite its simplicity, this gas has become a focus of modern biomedical research for its ability to influence oxidative stress, inflammation, and energy production.

In an interview with Evolv, Tyler LeBaron, Ph.D., founder of the Molecular Hydrogen Institute and one of the field’s leading researchers, discusses how this emerging science developed, what distinguishes hydrogen water from other wellness trends, and why understanding its biological effects could redefine how we think about cellular health and longevity.

Understanding Butyrate - The Key to Optimal Health and Well-Being

You may be familiar with gut health, but you might not realize how important a single compound called butyrate is for your overall well-being. In the video above, Dawn Boxell, a registered dietitian with Gastric Health, expands on butyrate, a type of short-chain fatty acid produced by certain beneficial bacteria in your gut whenever you eat specific types of fiber.

When you feed these helpful bacteria, they ferment the fiber and release butyrate, which influences many parts of your body, including your digestive system and brain. Butyrate helps nourish your colon cells, which rely on butyrate as a main energy source. More information: https://bit.ly/3XhAiKz
