Tasmania's EPA has granted Tassal a two-year lease extension for its Long Bay salmon farm near Port Arthur, dismissing environmental concerns over algae and seagrass, despite opposition from locals and the Tasmanian Independent Science Council.
Crop nutrient content has declined for decades, prompting research into solutions. Regenerative agriculture, focusing on soil health, shows promise in boosting nutrient density in some studies, but faces skepticism regarding scalability and cost-effectiveness.
Scientists are exploring enhanced rock weathering (ERW), a method of spreading finely crushed volcanic rock on farmland to remove atmospheric carbon dioxide. This technique accelerates a natural geological process, potentially improving soil health and crop productivity while utilizing existing agricultural equipment, but requires careful monitoring and verification.
أظهرت دراسة أن تناول ببتيدات الكولاجين عن طريق الفم يحسن ترطيب الجلد ومرونته ويقلل التجاعيد. كما ربطت التجارب السريرية المكملات الغذائية بزيادة سمك الشعر وقوة الأظافر، ودعم إصلاح الأنسجة المتضررة. لكن النتائج لا تزال غير قاطعة وتستدعي المزيد من البحث.
New research from Stockholm University and Project Seagrass indicates that fish from seagrass meadows offer a superior nutritional profile compared to those from coral reefs, potentially aiding millions in coastal East Africa facing malnutrition and poverty.
New research indicates seagrass meadows provide fish richer in essential nutrients than those from coral reefs, potentially combating malnutrition in coastal communities along East Africa. The study highlights seagrass as 'food infrastructure' vital for local diets.
كشفت دراسات أن فقدان الأسنان يؤثر على الدماغ عبر مسارات متعددة، منها صعوبة المضغ وتغيير العادات الغذائية، مما يؤثر على الذاكرة والمادة البيضاء، وقد تظهر هذه الاضطرابات مبكراً قبل الأعراض الإدراكية.
دراسات جديدة تعبر عن العلاقة بين الأنماط الغذائية وخطر الإصابة بالسرطانات، حيث أظهرت أن حمية DASH ونظام البحر الأبيض المتوسط والنظام النباتي الصحي يقللون من خطر الإصابة بسرطان القولون والمستقيم والثدي.
A prática de cuspir líquidos ricos em carboidratos, vista na Copa do Mundo, é uma estratégia científica chamada "bochecho de carboidrato". O gesto engana o cérebro, reduzindo a percepção de esforço e melhorando o desempenho em até 3%, sem fornecer calorias.
أظهرت دراسات علمية أن البوليفينولات والأنثوسيانين والريسفيراترول في التوت الأزرق والعنب الداكن تحسن صحة القلب والأوعية الدموية، خاصة لدى المعرضين للخطر، عبر تحسين وظيفة البطانة الداخلية للأوعية وتقليل الكوليسترول الضار والالتهابات.
Ecosystems are often described using functional language, implying they have purposes they can fail to perform. This essay argues that ecosystems lack intrinsic ends and cannot truly "break down," challenging the "ecosystem services" framework and advocating for clearer thinking about environmental crises.
Middle-aged men face physiological changes impacting metabolism, muscle mass, and hormonal function. Experts recommend increased protein intake, strength training, and mindful skincare. Mental health support and addressing hair loss are also crucial for well-being.
A new study mapped vast underground fungal networks, finding they could stretch 750 million times the Earth-Sun distance. These networks are vital for plant life and climate regulation but are threatened by agriculture, with cropland densities 47.3% lower than in wild ecosystems.
Eating specific fruits and vegetables rich in flavanols, such as blueberries and green tea, may better support heart health than just meeting the general five-a-day guideline, according to a study of 30,000 US and UK participants.
A Swiss startup, VunaNexus, has developed a technology to transform human urine into a certified liquid fertilizer called Aurin. Initially seen as unconventional, the process gained traction due to soaring fertilizer prices and supply chain issues following the Russia-Ukraine war. The technology is being implemented in buildings across Europe and has roots in a pioneering project in South Africa.
كشفت دراسة علمية أن الجنسنغ يحسن صحة الأمعاء ووظائف الدماغ عبر تأثيره على البكتيريا المعوية والنواقل العصبية، مع نتائج واعدة لأمراض مثل التهاب الأمعاء وألزهايمر والاكتئاب.
Scientists are studying the remarkable ability of "zombie" sea cucumber tissues to survive and absorb nutrients after being cut off, a phenomenon previously unobserved in natural conditions. These detached parts show no signs of decay and can heal and feed without a mouth, raising questions about the definition of life.
研究顯示，常吃西瓜的人飲食習慣更健康，攝取更多纖維、維生素和礦物質，同時瓜胺酸成分有助血管放鬆。西瓜高含水量低熱量，是增加水果攝取的好選擇，茄紅素抗氧化，瓜胺酸與一氧化氮生成有關，可能維持血管彈性。
The article highlights the wide range of physiological changes during pregnancy and argues for a broader nutritional strategy in India, emphasizing iron, folic acid, and other micronutrients essential for maternal and fetal health.
