A morning espresso accompanying a light breakfast or a cup of coffee between business meetings may help reduce the risk of developing dementia, particularly its most severe form—Alzheimer’s disease. This is the conclusion drawn by a team of researchers from leading scientific centers in France.
Most previous studies on this topic have primarily focused on meta-analyses of tea and coffee consumption, with relatively little information gathered about the biological changes caused by caffeine.

A team of researchers from the University of Ottawa (Canada) has confirmed that not adhering to a consistent sleep schedule—specifically, the times you go to bed and wake up—can increase the risk of stroke, heart attack, and heart failure by 26 percent. This finding holds true even for those who get enough hours of sleep.
Previous studies have focused on the duration of nighttime sleep and its impact on health, with experts recommending seven to nine hours of sleep per night. This advice remain…

Medical professionals are sounding the alarm. While dementia typically affects older adults, each year, hundreds of thousands of people are diagnosed with early-onset dementia (EOD). A large-scale study conducted by researchers from the University of Exeter (UK) and Maastricht University (Netherlands) has shed light on the reasons behind this phenomenon.
Most previous research on dementia has focused on genetics, specifically the hereditary transmission of the disease. However, the current stud…

Currently, over 55 million people worldwide are living with dementia, a figure that has reached unprecedented levels.
The most common form of dementia is Alzheimer’s disease, which leads to a decline in memory and cognitive abilities. One way to detect Alzheimer’s is by observing changes in speech. Difficulties in this area can indicate a higher likelihood of developing the disease.
Researchers from Nottingham Trent University have identified five early symptoms of this condition that should ne…

Life is truly beautiful, declared the authors of a new experiment from the University of Calgary and the National Research Council of Canada.
The researchers reached this conclusion following an unusual experiment involving mice and two different types of plants. They discovered direct physical evidence of the biophoton phenomenon: the emission of light during life. The team also claims that all living things, including human bodies, stop glowing after death.
At first glance, these results may …

We took a chance and played a round of “Monopolist” (the Kyiv version of Monopoly) with our four-year-old. To our surprise, she outsmarted us! She bought up all the most prestigious neighborhoods in Kyiv and then drained us dry! To make matters worse, she kept landing on “Chance” cards that gave her inheritances, like an island for an outrageous sum of money, or cards that said, “You’re lucky! Someone decided to pay you for this and that.” We were completely blown away. It was so engaging that w…
