Your genes may decide whether a low-carb diet sends cholesterol soaring https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260823015009.htm

A low-carb diet may raise LDL cholesterol much more sharply in people who are genetically predisposed to high cholesterol, particularly when they consume lots of saturated fat. The findings could help explain why people following seemingly similar diets can have dramatically different results.

Supercharged “natural killer” cells could be a powerful new cancer weapon https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260824065546.htm

Researchers have found a way to supercharge natural killer cells, powerful immune cells that can attack cancer, so they can pe*****te solid tumors and keep fighting once inside. In mice, these specially prepared tissue-resident cells slowed the growth of several tumors, including melanoma and head a...

Shingles vaccine linked to 24% lower dementia risk https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260823015013.htm

Older adults who received the Shingrix shingles vaccine were 24% less likely to be diagnosed with dementia over four years in a study of more than 500,000 people. Researchers estimate the difference could amount to roughly one dementia case prevented for every 17 people vaccinated.

Bird flu is spreading. Your backyard feeder could make it worse https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260824065519.htm

Backyard bird feeders could become unexpected hotspots for H5N1 as Australia’s bird flu outbreak spreads, bringing species together in ways that rarely occur naturally. Experts say stopping feeding is safest, while smaller amounts of food, no hand-feeding, and careful cleaning can reduce the dange...

Common medications may change your gut for years https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260824065605.htm

Common medications may reshape the gut microbiome long after the last dose is taken. In a study of more than 2,500 people, researchers found lasting microbial changes linked not only to antibiotics, but also to antidepressants, beta-blockers, acid-reducing drugs, and benzodiazepines. Some effects we...

The dental crown of the future could be 3D-printed while you wait https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260822015217.htm

Researchers have found a way to slash the processing time for 3D-printed zirconia crowns from as much as 100 hours to under 30 minutes. The advance could eventually let dentists print strong, customized permanent crowns for patients within a single appointment.

A major Alzheimer’s risk gene may shrink brain cells years before symptoms https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260821012234.htm

Researchers have uncovered a possible reason why the Alzheimer’s risk gene APOE4 can disrupt the brain long before memory problems begin. In mice, APOE4 increased a protein called Nell2, shrinking neurons and making memory circuits unusually active. That early hyperactivity predicted worse memory ...

Quitting alcohol may prime the brain for relapse https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260822015148.htm

Quitting alcohol may prime the brain for relapse https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/08/260822015148.htm

Mice that developed compulsive drinking after alcohol abstinence showed more than double the activity in a brain region associated with stress and addiction. Because the signal appeared before they drank again, researchers think it could eventually help predict who is most at risk of relapse.
