Ending the ability of mice to produce a protein called Interleukin 11 (IL-11) extended their lives by between 20 and 25 percent, according to research from the U.K.’s Medical Research Council Laboratory of Medical Science and Imperial College London.
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances make up the PFAS family of chemicals, known for their ability to remain stable when they’re wet or heated because their carbon-fluorine bonds are so strong.
Slashing kids’ recreational screen time to three hours a week dramatically improves their behavior and mental health in a very short time, according to a new study from the University of Southern Denmark.

Migraine headaches, which can paralyze sufferers for hours or even days, can be triggered by a bright light or seem to come out of nowhere.
Scientists at Mount Sinai Hospital and the private City of Hope research center have created a combination of drugs that has reversed diabetes in three months in tests on mice.
