Study: Watermelon juice may naturally lower blood pressure, new research shows
Watermelon juice contains L-citrulline, which the body converts into arginine to help relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure. Research suggests modest blood pressure reductions in people with elevated levels, particularly from watermelon’s L-citrulline and potassium content. The fruit provides 40% more lycopene than tomatoes, with antioxidants supporting heart health and reducing cancer risk. Watermelon […]

FDA acting deputy commissioner Donald Prater acknowledged the task is “quite challenging” due to conflicting scientific definitions and evolving research. UPFs account for roughly 70% of U.S. packaged foods and over 60% […]

Study: Intermittent fasting may shield brain from chronic stress damage
New research in mice suggests intermittent fasting protects the brain from stress-induced damage to myelin, the protective coating around nerve cells. The study found fasting altered gut microbiome composition, which may mediate the brain-protective effects. Stressed mice that followed intermittent fasting showed fewer depression-like behaviors and less myelin damage than those eating normally. The findings […]
