An artificial saliva in the form of a mouthwash, made with the protein CANECPI-5 extracted from sugarcane and modified in a laboratory, can help treat teeth in patients with head and neck cancer. In these cases, radiation therapy too close to the mouth can damage the salivary glands and compromise the production of saliva, which is necessary to control bacteria and disease. According to research conducted at the Bauru School of Dentistry at the University of São Paulo (FOB-USP) in Brazil, CANECPI-5 forms a protective “shield” for the teeth, protecting the enamel from the weakened acids found in juices, alcoholic…

Happy New Year! Tonight, as fireworks light up the sky (or as you relax with a warm cup of tea in the Swedish winter darkness), millions are quietly setting their intentions for 2026. Recent research shows that improving nutrition and food choices tops the list for many (about 28–45% of people plan to eat healthier), followed by more exercise, better mental health, gut-focused wellnessand sustainable habits lasting after January. What makes these goals stick? Small, enjoyable changes rooted in real food and tradition — not extreme diets or expensive gadgets. Pakistani cuisine already excels here: think fiber-packed lentils, anti-inflammatory spices,…

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most aggressive types of breast cancer, lacking estrogen, progesterone and HER2 receptors, and therefore relies mainly on cytotoxic chemotherapy. Despite initial response, many patients experience rapid relapse caused by cancer stem cells that survive chemotherapy and seed metastasis. Addressing this unmet need, researchers led by Professor Jae Hong Seo from Korea University discovered that pitavastatin, a widely prescribed cholesterol-lowering drug, can directly inhibit the anti-apoptotic protein Mcl-1, a key driver of survival, stemness and paclitaxel resistance in TNBC cells. This paper was published in Issue 14, Article 125, of Experimental Hematology &…

Physical Activity and Depression As a men’s therapist here in Chicago, I often sit across from men who are juggling a lot – work stress, relationship challenges, family responsibilities, financial pressure, and personal doubts they rarely talk about. The common thread? They feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed or just disconnected from themselves. One of the first things I ask is this: “How’s your body?” It may sound like a strange question in a therapy session, but it opens a powerful door. There’s a deep connection between our minds and bodies, and exercise—yes, even a short walk or lifting weights for 20…

So, in true birthday fashion, we thought we’d do something a little nostalgic and take a stroll down Woohoo Lane. A reminder that the brightest business ideas can really start in a very small kitchen 🙂 Grab a mug.

If you’ve been following me for a while, or even if you just found me and happened to land on this article, you may have noticed that I often identify myself as a nutritionist. But what does this mean? What exactly is a nutritionist? And is nutritional therapy something you would benefit from? First, “nutritionist” is not a credential. I am a registered dietitian nutritionist, which is a certificate. For this, I earned a master’s degree in nutrition, did 9+ months of supervision, and then passed a challenging national exam. Registered dietitians do many different things. It’s a myth that…

Australian researchers have revealed how a particular strain of a diarrhea-causing parasite managed to infect more animal species, offering new insights into how parasitic infections emerge and spread in humans. The WEHI-led study revealed a genetic shortcut that may help Giardia duodenalis and many other parasites jump to new hosts at a cost to long-term survival. The findings may also help explain how parasites evolve drug resistance, with implications for treatment strategies worldwide. Understanding these dynamics could inform public health surveillance and guide efforts to predict the spread and persistence of zoonotic agents before they become established. With a glance…
