Are Multivitamin Supplements a Waste of Money?

Quote: In this 2025 study researchers reported: "Regular MVM (multivitamin–multimineral) supplementation among older Taiwanese adults without prior MVM use could meaningfully reduce dementia burden and generate substantial healthcare and societal cost savings. These findings highlight regular MVM use as a pragmatic strategy to support cognitive health in aging populations...Regular MVM use was projected to prevent 204,250 dementia cases and 23,649 premature deaths.
Comment: Vitamins certainly helped me, kept me looking younger than people my age. The real question is how much do you really need? The Minimum Daily Adult Requirment is an absolute minimum for a healthy person. Illness often ramps up the need for specific vitamins, especially vitamin C.

AI Helps Stanford Scientists Discover a Natural Ozempic with a Surprising Advantage

Quote: Early animal experiments suggest that it can suppress appetite and promote fat loss much like semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic, while potentially avoiding some of the drugs troublesome side effects. The molecule, known as BRP, works differently from existing treatments. Rather than affecting several organs throughout the body, it appears to act more selectively on a part of the brain responsible for controlling hunger and metabolism.

Kids Who Eat More Ultra-processed Foods Show a Troubling Brain Response

Quote: Children who consume more ultra-processed foods (UPFs) may have stronger brain responses to tempting foods, potentially helping explain why these products are associated with weight gain. A new study published in JAMA Network Open found that children who ate more of these foods showed heightened activity in the brains reward system when looking at pictures of appetizing foods. Those stronger responses were also associated with increases in body fat over the following year.

Scientists Discover Surprising Heart Benefits of Eating Avocado and Mango Every Day

Comment: Mango is related to poison ivy and poison oak. It can cause serious stomach irritation and temporary lack of absorption of nutrition. I know this from first hand experience. But Avocados can be quite good.

Experts Say High Blood Pressure Guidelines Are Missing Half the Equation

Quote: Researchers say that increasing potassium intake, rather than focusing only on reducing sodium, could lead to better blood pressure control. By addressing both nutrients together, this approach could strengthen efforts to prevent hypertension and reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular problems.

Even Moderate Drinking Linked to Cancer and Early Death, Major Study Finds

Quote: The findings suggest that alcohols risks begin at relatively low levels of consumption and increase as people drink more. "This study provides the most comprehensive U.S. estimates to date of lifetime risks of alcohol-attributable mortality and morbidity, showing that even moderate levels of consumption increase the risk of premature death and disability," said study co-author Katherine M. Keyes, PhD, professor of Epidemiology at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health.

Scientists Discover a Surprising Brain Benefit of Eating Peanuts Every Day

Quote: After participants consumed peanuts daily for 16 weeks, researchers observed improved insulin responsiveness in a group of brain regions in the right hemisphere. These included portions of the lingual gyrus, hippocampus, parahippocampal gyrus, and posterior cingulate gyrus, all of which contribute to memory-related processes. "The hormone insulin plays an important role in the brain, where it supports memory and other cognitive processes.
