Dissolvable strips let you take supplements without water. We look at whether that means better vitamin absorption and what evidence is needed to compare this new format with tablets.
Smartwatches and rings can help you notice changes in sleep, heart rate, and temperature. We look at what this data can tell you about menopause symptoms–and how to use it without falling into anxious self-diagnosis.
One photo—and a cancer prognosis? AI has learned to assess health from a facial photograph: what the FAHR-Face study found. Let’s explore the results.
After a report about unwanted symptoms, BPC-157 is once again being discussed as an injury treatment. But there’s a wide gap between a tendon healing in an animal and a person returning to training.
The label lists two forms of the same vitamin: D2 and D3. We explain why D3 tends to support levels for longer, when D2 makes sense, and who shouldn’t change their regimen without testing.

Melatonin may seem like a harmless supplement, but taking it for months requires a closer look. We examine the signal of a risk of heart failure and outline a plan for chronic insomnia.

High lipoprotein(a) is often inherited and can go unnoticed for years. We explain who needs the test and why exercise and supplements do not change its level.
We break down the peptide boom. What is supported by science, what is FDA-approved, and what is sold online as a “medical revolution”
When a doctor says "MCI, nothing critical," the anxiety still doesn't go away: memory is who you are. The Bredesen protocol boldly proposes not an "Alzheimer's pill," but the search for 36 holes in the brain's "roof" — and an attempt to patch each one.
Biohacking is a field where loud headlines run especially far ahead of the evidence. Here we look at what stands behind the latest protocol: whether human studies exist, how large the sample was, who funded the work and what regulators actually say.
The material covers peptides and which of them are genuinely approved, the epigenetics of ageing and cellular "noise", supplements and the tests sold as personalisation.
