A study, published in the Cell Metabolism, reveals an unexpected connection between a tumor suppressor gene in the liver and the normally careful control over the amount of iron absorbed from the diet ...
Researchers from University of Florida ( UF ) have identified one possible reason for rising obesity rates, and it all starts with fructose, found in fruit, honey, table sugar and other sweeteners, an ...
Marijuana, or more specifically its active ingredient, tetrahydrocannabinol, has a well-documented tendency to stimulate hunger. And while researchers have traced this property to cannabinoid recept ...
A study has found that intake of magnesium through diet and supplements is positively associated with bone density throughout the whole body, particularly in older white adults. Researchers say the e ...
Drugs that reverse and prevent bone loss due to osteoporosis also significantly ward off periodontal disease. Leena Bahl Palomo, at the Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine, co ...
A study, published in the JAMA, has discovered that calcium intake levels of more than 800 mg/day may be unnecessary for maintaining calcium metabolism if vitamin D status is adequate. The importa ...
A report, published in the journal Cell Metabolism, has found powerful effects of light on the adrenal glands, a finding that might explain the broad benefits of bright light therapy for a variety of ...
Researchers have discovered new evidence to explain the observation that diets rich in protein reduce the appetite. The findings, published in the journal Cell Metabolism. suggest a novel link conn ...
Researchers, at University of Michigan Life Sciences Institute, found that a hormonal cocktail routinely used in the lab induces a key genetic switch in the transition from fat-cell precursors to full ...
A research at the Oregon National Primate Research Center ( ONPRC ) at Oregon Health & Science University has demonstrated that a hormone found naturally in the body has the ability to cause limited w ...
Working with mice -- whose appetites are controlled by systems very similar to those in humans researchers have identified a specific type of neuron that is essential for feeding behavior. Without t ...
Researchers from Duke University Medical Center and Louisiana State University have found that the gene encoding an enzyme that hinders muscle from burning fat manufactures three times more enzyme in ...
A study suggest that muscle bears a metabolic memory of obesity, which may help to explain why sustained weight loss can be difficult despite cutting calories. A diverse team of researchers found t ...
In a study of elderly, predominately male veterans, statin, also known as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, use was associated with a 36 percent reduction in risk of fracture when compared with no lipid-l ...
