Leaves provide a window into the health of an ecosystem: Research confirms that they are sophisticated sensors of environmental health
Researchers found a possible method of evaluating the state of an environment. By analyzing the concentrations of nutrients stored in the leaves of locally found plants, they might get an accurate picture of the overall health of the local ecological systems. Known for hosting the photosynthetic process that provides plants with food and energy, leaves are […]

Engineers develop high energy density all-solid-state batteries
Solid-state battery technology has reached a new milestone in terms of energy storage. Thanks to the new conducting material developed by Japanese researchers, all-solid-state batteries will boast the greatest energy density yet. The hydride lithium superionic conductor arranges clusters of hydrogen anions (negative ions) into specialized structures. The material displays far greater stability against lithium metal, the […]

Quantum particles can fly through barriers, just like ghosts
Particles that are smaller than an atom can behave very strangely, thanks to a process called “quantum tunneling.” They can zip through barriers that keep larger objects out, and they do this instantaneously. Researchers in Australia have spent years studying electrons as the subatomic particles move away from their parent hydrogen atom. They found that quantum tunneling […]

Ancient Egyptian mining site reveals over 100 inscriptions
The ancient amethyst mine at Wadi el-Hudi, Egypt revealed something even more valuable than the purple-colored precious stones once extracted from there: Researchers have found more than 100 inscriptions cut into the rock of the site. Other discoveries included 14 steles and 45 ostraca. A stele (also called stela) is an engraving on a slab […]

Earth-like planets not as rare as once thought: Astronomers estimate there are 2,000 nearby stars that house them
Researchers have placed their best bets on finding an Earth-like planet on nearly 2,000 stars, meaning these exoplanets might not be as rare as people think. Some of these stars lay within just a few light-years of our solar system. NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has targeted the stellar candidates. The successor to the […]

For us, it’s poison. For space, it’s alien life
One planet’s toxic gas might be the air that sustains life in another world. This axiom reportedly applies to carbon monoxide, a substance known to harm Earth-based lifeforms but which a new study claims may be the sign of alien life. Carbon monoxide is deadly to humans and most organic life on Earth. After entering the body […]

Promising new research suggests targeting the endocannabinoid system to treat cognitive disorders
Spanish researchers found new hope for patients with cognitive disorders like Down syndrome. Their experiment on cognitively-impaired mice revealed a link between Down syndrome and the endocannabinoid system. Furthermore, they identified cannabinoid receptor type-1 (CB1R) as a possible target for the treatment of Down syndrome. Mental disability stems from many causes, including genetic problems. The most widespread of […]

Your liver loves schisandra extract: Research shows these berries reduce risk of NAFLD, liver dysfunction
The berries of Schisandra sphenanthera displayed protective effects on the liver. Chinese researchers showed that an extract made from the dried fruit could delay the progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. A cousin to the five-flavor fruit (Schisandra chinensis) favored by natural health practitioners, S. sphenanthera is also extensively used in China. Its fruits undergo drying and extraction processes to produce an […]

Flaxseeds improve gut health and metabolic health, increase production of beneficial fatty acids
A joint study by Danish and Swedish researchers found a new and healthy reason for people to eat flaxseed. Their research showed that the dietary fibers in flaxseed could trigger positive changes in the composition of the gut microbiota that ferment these fibers. These alterations in gut microbiota can improve metabolic health and lower the risk of obesity. Microbiota is the collective term […]

Worried about high blood pressure? Check your zinc levels
Researchers found a link between low levels of zinc and the risk of high blood pressure. They theorized that patients with deficiencies in the vital mineral may be more vulnerable to hypertension. According to studies, there is a connection between hypertension and zinc: The lower the level of the nutrient in the body, the greater the risk of […]
