Summary: Scientists have discovered that a toxic complex formed between NMDA receptors and TRPM4 channels drives neuron death in Alzheimer’s disease. Using a novel molecule called FP802, researchers were able to break apart this “death complex” in mice, preventing cognitive decline, synapse loss, and mitochondrial damage. The treatment also reduced amyloid buildup, suggesting it could offer broader protection than existing …

B for brain, B for B-complex!As Phoebe would have pointed out, ‘coincidence’?Scientific evidence suggests it’s definitely not!Emerging research shows that beyond the well-known B6 and B12, the full vitamin B-complex, including B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B7 (biotin), and B9 (folate), plays vital roles in keeping your brain energized and resilient. Studies reveal that these B …

Asteroid Bennu, sampled by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission in 2020, is a mixture of dust that formed in our solar system, organic matter from interstellar space, and pre-solar system stardust. Its unique and varied contents were dramatically transformed over time by interactions with water and exposure to the harsh space environment. These insights come from a trio of newly published papers …
