Calorie restriction | Marathon runner microbes | Tracking Parkinson’s proteins

Calorie restriction may benefit healthy adults under 50; bacteria enriched in marathon runners; tracking the spread of Parkinson's proteins

July 23, 2019 Edition Calorie restriction may benefit healthy adults under 50 Restricting calories for two years led to weight loss and a substantial reduction in risk factors for heart disease and diabetes in healthy adults 50 or younger. Bacteria enriched in marathon runners Researchers found that marathon runners have more bacteria that metabolize lactate after finishing their race. The findings suggest strategies to enhance exercise ability. Tracking the spread of Parkinson's proteins from gut to brain Results in mice suggest that finding a way to stop the spread of the protein thought to cause Parkinson's disease from the gut to the brain might help prevent the disease.
