A shocking report reveals that diquat, the herbicide now replacing glyphosate in many Roundup products, is about 200× more toxic and has been shown to damage organs, kill beneficial gut bacteria, and disrupt your gut lining—according to a Friends of the Earth analysis of EPA data.

USDA scientists have linked the worst U.S. honeybee die-off on record—a staggering ~60% colony loss—to pesticide-resistant Varroa mites spreading deadly viruses, notably deformed-wing viral strains A & B, and acute bee paralysis virus. Mites resistant to the last line pesticide, amitraz, failed to stop the viral spread—signaling a massive warning for bee health and ecosystems.

A mouse study presented at ENDO 2025 by University of Michigan researchers found that tirzepatide (marketed as Mounjaro/Zepbound) caused ~20% weight loss in obese mice and dramatically slowed breast tumor growth, linking fat loss directly to improved cancer outcomes.

A 2021 review in Nutrients by Smith‑Ryan et al. highlights that women have 70–80% lower natural creatine stores than men, making supplementation especially impactful for their health and performance.

A recent EMJ Dermatology review shows that even without celiac disease or positive blood tests, non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) can still cause persistent skin issues like dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, urticaria, psoriasis, and chronic rashes—symptoms that often improve after adopting a gluten-free diet.

UCLA researchers uncovered four distinct “roadmaps” leading to Alzheimer’s by analyzing longitudinal health records from nearly 25,000 patients and validating findings in the All of Us cohort. These sequential diagnostic patterns predicted dementia better than any single risk factor.

A July 2025 study from researchers in Japan found that certain gut bacteria may block weight loss—even when you eat well. People who ate a healthy diet but failed to lose weight had higher levels of Collinsella, a microbe linked to obesity and fat storage.

A growing body of research from 2020 to 2025 shows that religion and spirituality offer powerful protection against depression, anxiety, and even chronic illness.

A 2025 Microsoft study revealed that its AI system, MAI-DxO, correctly diagnosed 85% of complex medical cases—four times more accurately than experienced physicians.

A July 2025 UCL study in Frontiers in Psychology found that when people choose exercise types suited to their personality, they enjoy workouts more and experience greater stress relief than mismatched routines.

A 2025 animal study in Frontiers in Nutrition by Wang et al. found that giving high-fat–fed rats betaine (1.5% in drinking water) for 8 weeks led to less body fat, improved blood lipids (lower triglycerides, higher HDL), and better glucose tolerance—all without cutting calories.

A 2025 pooled cohort study of 1.56 million UK adults found that those diagnosed with autoimmune or chronic inflammatory conditions had a 86% higher likelihood of experiencing affective disorders (depression, anxiety, bipolar) compared to people without these conditions.

A 2025 study reported in ScienceDaily highlights that a single dose of psilocybin produced significant and sustained reductions in depression for cancer patients—lasting up to 2 years after treatment.

A 2025 cohort study of 291 Canadian youths (ages 10–18) found that sleeping more than 9.9 hours per night in the first two weeks after a concussion was linked to more severe symptoms and a higher risk of lingering effects at four weeks.

A 2025 pooled cohort study involving 5,306 children from Australia, the U.S., and Canada, published in Journal of Exposure Science & Environmental Epidemiology, found that exposure to plastic-derived chemicals before age 5—such as phthalates and BPA—was linked to significantly higher rates of asthma and wheezing in childhood.

A 2025 study by Zheng et al. used data from over 16,000 Chinese adults between 1997–2011. They found that simply owning a refrigerator was linked to a 39% increase in daily calorie intake, a rise in fat and protein consumption, and more processed food in the diet—alongside higher obesity risk, especially among older adults and men.

A 2025 analysis within the Malmö Preventive Project (1,792 adults, ~13 years follow-up) found that a higher waist‑to‑height ratio (WtHR)—not BMI—was strongly linked to incident heart failure.

A new study from The Lancet Infectious Diseases (2025) found that using broad-spectrum antibiotics to treat pneumonia may actually increase mortality risk in certain patients. These antibiotics can disrupt the microbiome, trigger harmful inflammation, and contribute to antibiotic resistance.

A 2025 study in Frontiers in Nutrition by Wen et al. found that low handgrip strength (HGS) and low relative handgrip strength (RHGS) were strongly linked to increased odds and risk of asthma—by up to 50% for those at the lowest quartile of grip strength.
