Authors of a review of more than 350 studies report that, for many people, excess protein may bring no benefit and may interfere with longevity. They say protein needs are individual.
Semi-transparent panels passing 13.2% and 19.2% of photosynthetically active light delayed maturity, but fresh biomass matched open-field plants.
Plant enzymes cleave the fungal protein Pit2 and release a nine-amino-acid peptide that activates receptor Gpe1. The effect was shown in yeast reporter assays and on corn seedlings.
Researchers at Pukyong National University link the decline of Todarodes pacificus to marine heat waves. The current catch is one-sixteenth of the 2002 level.
Researchers define large-scale monsoon onset at a location as its joining the largest cluster of rainfall onsets, which separates the monsoon from short local rain spells.
Researchers at Pukyong National University linked the collapse of the Japanese flying squid fishery in the East Sea to warming and heatwaves. Their projections show zero catch by the 2040s.
Imaging in older adults showed a change in brain insulin responsiveness in memory-related regions after 16 weeks of peanut intake; blood markers of glucose and lipids did not change.
Novamont (Versalis, Eni) and Sila introduced five microencapsulated feed additives at EuroTier; in vivo studies at the University of Bologna showed up to 33% lower methane intensity.
Tablets based on monophosphorylated starch kept the probiotic detectable in the feces of calves with diarrhea longer than a liquid suspension did.
Parsnip root extract promoted beneficial gut bacteria and reduced liver fat in cell and animal experiments. Effects in humans have not yet been verified.
Researchers at Princeton University describe plant proteins that survive the stomach and feed colon bacteria; most data come from lab and animal models.
Japan's Kirin Holdings sells a spoon that passes electric current to make low-sodium food taste saltier. It costs 24,750 yen and is sold only within Japan.
In a trial of 82 adults with prediabetes, a daily avocado and a cup of mango increased dilation of the arm artery, while fasting glucose changed little.
In a 13-year observational cohort, coffee drinkers had lower atrial fibrillation risk than non-drinkers, with the largest gap at 2–3 cups a day; tea results were less consistent.
In mice, dietary fiber suppressed bacterial breakdown of the intestinal mucus layer, a source of potentially harmful phenols; digestion-resistant plant proteins gave other metabolites.
In a JAMA Network Open cohort, adherence to a Mediterranean diet was associated with lower cancer and cardiovascular death; trials on cognition give mixed results.
A follow-up of patients with chronic kidney disease at 9 hospitals in Korea linked extremely low protein intake to higher risks of kidney failure and death.
Researchers recorded airborne ultrasonic sounds from dehydrated and cut plants. The sound pattern differs by type of stress, and a trained algorithm distinguished them.
Roscosmos head Dmitry Bakanov said such systems may be needed for deep-space missions; one option pairs photobioreactors with plant-growing units.
Nature Conservation Margaret River entered invasive plants in a local show to draw attention to harm to ecosystems. The arrangement won best exhibit.
