Basic science research is critical to finding cures for degenerative conditions and diseases; a recently published study illustrates how that happens. Researchers identified a cell receptor that regulated muscle and bone cell metabolism called GRP133 about 15 years ago. Recent research has shown that a protein called AP503 can be a receptor agonist for GRP133, […]
Maybe you’ve been hearing about brainrot; if you have a kid in the house, the odds go way up. My point in mentioning this is to suggest that peanuts don’t contribute to brainrot, but may be a brain boon as I talked about on Tuesday. The question was why? Nutrients May Hold the Key Peanuts, […]
I’m Chet and I’m a salt-a-holic—specifically, nuts and especially peanuts—so when I caught a headline about peanuts in my research feed, I had to check it out. The title of the paper included the words “skin-roasted peanut consumption” so whatever the study was about, I was in. We hear a lot about peanut allergies, but […]
There are two more questions on the benefit of the chair-based exercises for getting stronger and getting ripped while doing it. Will Chair-Based Exercise Increase Muscle Mass? Examining the research on the benefits of chair-based exercise for increasing muscle mass seems clear. It will not—at least not to the degree the chair-based exercise ads suggest. […]
Time marches on and we’re counting down to the New Year; it’s time to start planning how you’re going to maintain health and fitness if you have it or improve it if you could do better. Recently, especially on click-bait websites, there are a couple of companies that are pitching chair-based exercises as a solution […]

Peanut allergies can result in some of the most severe allergic reactions including anaphylactic shock; it’s especially horrible when it happens to children. While research continues on how to overcome a present allergy to peanuts, the best option is to prevent the allergy from occurring. Recent research has shown that’s possible. Peanut Exposure Early Researchers […]
This week will be about beans and nuts, a tired ad campaign, and some exciting new research. Let’s begin with the advertising retread. A retired pediatric cardiologist started talking about the dangers of lectins in foods, especially beans and nuts, years ago. They were the reason you had bloating and other digestive issues. That turns […]
As we continue to examine the results that appeared to suggest that the chronic use of melatonin in people diagnosed with insomnia could result in an increased risk of a diagnosis of heart failure, heart failure hospitalizations, and death from all causes, let’s put the unreviewed abstract in perspective. One correction from Tuesday. The researchers […]
Medical conferences are always a great source of controversy; studies are presented that haven’t been peer reviewed but have great press releases to advertise them. The American Heart Association met last week, and the Scientific Sessions didn’t disappoint. The abstract that caught my attention was based on an analysis of a large database of subjects […]
