Recent studies suggest that a form of Vitamin B3 called nicotinamide can help prevent skin cancer. According to trials run by the University of Sydney, people who took nicotinamide twice daily had a 23% lower risk of developing a new skin cancer. Nicotinamide is believed to enhance the repair of DNA in skin cells damaged by sun exposure. The supplement is also well-tolerated and affordable, making it an accessible and effective solution in skin cancer prevention.

A new study found that nicotinamide (vitamin B3) use was linked to fewer cases of non-melanoma skin cancers. The supplement was tied to a 14% reduction in future skin cancers, with the greatest benefit in people who started taking it after their first diagnosis.

Ladies, it's time we rethink the negatives surrounding menopause. New research indicates that specific types of hormone therapy could improve our memory post-meno! In trials, participants who took estradiol-based treatments had improvements in what's called episodic memory—the ability to remember where you put your keys or whether you turned off the stove before leaving home. Not only could this provide relief for the forgetful among us, but it may also help stave off dementia. Time to embrace the change!

Estradiol-2 therapy is linked to higher episodic or prospective memory scores, depending on route of administration, but has no effect on executive function.

Get this: the bugs in your gut may be playing chess with your immune system, impacting brain development and behavior, according to recent research at the University of Virginia! In fact, they've found a specific dietary fiber that feeds gut bacteria and influences the maturation of the type of immune cells that are principal actors in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Just think about it, fibers like these could become a part of precision medicine therapies for ASD. I guess fiber is not only good for your poop-loop but also your brain-boogie!

Researchers have uncovered a critical connection between the gut microbiota, the immune system, and autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

Listen up, egg lovers! A new study is scrambling up our understanding of that good old breakfast staple as it links a common dietary fat found in eggs to fast-growing breast cancer.

Just remember not to take it to extremes – while increasing fiber intake is generally beneficial, it's not a case of "the more, the merrier!"
