Longer-term mixed nut consumption improves brain vascular function and memory: A randomized, controlled crossover trial in older adults

Consuming nuts may slow the cognitive deterioration of getting older, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Nijssen et al. (2023) looked into the longer-term effects of eating mixed nuts on brain vascular function in older persons, which may be the reason for improvements in cognitive function, through their randomized, single-blinded, cross-over trial. Across a 16-week […]

High on food: the interaction between the neural circuits for feeding and for reward

As feeding is considered to involve integrated communication between homeostatic feeding circuits and reward circuits, this 2015 review aimed to summarize the latest understandings of how these 2 circuits in the brain interact. Liu et al. (2015) states that a variety of neuronal signals are involved in the initiation and termination of a feeding episode, […]
