The importance of the human brown adipose tissue (BAT) has become clearer during the past ten years. Using positron emission tomography, PET, it was shown that adult humans have functional BAT. Coldness is an effective activator of the BAT metabolic function but, in rodents, eating has the same effect. Now, researchers have shown that having a meal increases oxygen consumption in human BAT as much as coldness....
Reviewing medical information gathered on more than 6,000 adults over a 10-year period, researchers have found that lower than normal blood levels of vitamin D were linked to increased risk of early signs of interstitial lung disease (ILD)....
A new study suggests scientists could build better drugs by learning from bacteria-derived molecules called thiocarboxylic acids....
Researchers suggest higher levels of vitamin D are associated with decreasing risk of breast cancer....
Girls are stronger with higher levels of vitamin D, but the association was not found in boys. These are the results from a new large study from the Odense Child Cohort. According to the studys first author, girls with low vitamin D have a 70 percent increased risk of being among the lowest 10 percent in a test for muscle strength....
A new study authored by scientists from more than 20 medical centers and organizations finds that higher circulating vitamin D concentrations are significantly associated with lower colorectal cancer risk....
