A study shows that just 10 minutes of intense cycling can trigger anti-cancer signals in the body by releasing molecules that promote DNA repair and reduce cancer growth genes, potentially opening new avenues for cancer treatment and emphasizing the health benefits of even brief exercise sessions.
A study published in Nature Medicine reveals that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for trans women causes biological changes at the molecular level, aligning their protein biomarkers more closely with cisgender women, and potentially improving immune and heart health. The research underscores the biological malleability of adults and suggests a need for personalized HRT monitoring to optimize health outcomes.
Recent research suggests that women today are experiencing more frequent and severe hot flashes during menopause compared to previous generations, with environmental, genetic, and social factors likely contributing to this shift. Factors such as stress, medication use, and environmental changes may exacerbate symptoms, and epigenetic changes could also play a role. It's important for women to seek help if menopausal symptoms are impacting their daily lives, as severe hot flashes may indicate higher risk for heart attack or stroke.
