Mitochondria regulate the cell danger response (CDR) that controls innate immunity and healing. Chemical pollutants in the environment lower the threshold for CDR activation. Persistent activation of CDR inhibits healing and leads to chronic illness. Metabolomics and exposomics can help guide new policies to lower the risk of chronic illness.
A new analysis method shows the brain regulates its signals using glutamate in more ways than previously thought.

Chronobiologists warn changing to daylight savings can have serious effects on both brain and general health. The change in time during spring was linked to a 24% increase in severe cardiovascular events in women. Researchers also noted the sudden change in time alters circadian rhythms, reduces the production of natural melatonin, impacts cognitive function, and may also foster tumor growth.
From helping to protect against certain cancers and neurodegenerative diseases to causing anxiety and insomnia, researchers investigate how coffee affects the brain, body, and overall health.
