Antibiotics remain essential in fighting infections but are notorious for disrupting gut microbiota, often leading to long-term health risks. A recent study highlights fucoidan a marine polysaccharide from brown seaweed as a promising intervention. Researchers found that fucoidan offered broad-spectrum protection to gut microbes exposed to multiple antibiotic classes, both in vitro and in animal… Read More

This study evaluates the anti-asthmatic potential of Perilla frutescens, a plant traditionally used for its medicinal properties. Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness, eosinophilic infiltration, and elevated levels of Th2 cytokines.

Participants consumed the blend twice daily. The primary outcome of safety was met, with no adverse events reported. Asthmatic participants showed improvements in lung function… Read More

A new framework expands the classic 12 hallmarks of aging to 14, classifying them into three tiers: primary (root causes like genomic instability, telomere shortening, epigenetic alterations, loss of proteostasis, impaired macroautophagy), antagonistic (stress responses such as mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, deregulated nutrient sensing), and integrative (observable consequences like chronic inflammation, stem cell exhaustion, altered… Read More
