Food, plants and everyday nutrition. From the app that turns your own AI chat into a nutrition coach with in-depth reports.
A 2019 clinic crossover trial found 20 adults ate about 500 kcal a day more on an ultra-processed menu, even when the food on offer was matched. A 2025 UK trial still saw a difference inside healthy-eating guidance. Small studies, not a diet plan.
Read moreA 2025 meta-analysis linked repeated nature visits with mental health benefits up to about 600 minutes in ill adults. White 2019 found 120 minutes per week associated with wellbeing in 19,806 English adults.
Read moreShinshu University trials compared interval walking with continuous steps in older adults. Interval training raised strength and aerobic fitness markers over five months.
Read moreResearchers analysed about 21,000 Android health and fitness apps. Most contained code that could collect user data, often via third parties; fewer actually transmitted data in tests. A five-step privacy check.
Read moreA 2022 review pooled seven one-day lab trials. Light walking after meals lowered after-meal glucose and insulin more than standing or sitting; blood pressure did not change. Short, small studies, not medical advice.
Read moreA 12-week Spanish trial in 197 adults found no extra MRI visceral fat loss from 8-hour windows on top of diet advice. Early window lowered fasting glucose versus control.
Read moreIn 535 Iranian adults, higher MIND diet scores were linked to better sleep odds in a cross-sectional study. No link with inflammation markers in the same paper.
Read moreIn the Danish LISA trial, retirees did one year of heavy, moderate or no resistance training. Four years later, leg strength in the heavy group was still at baseline while other groups declined.
Read moreA meta-analysis pooled lab studies that shortened sleep. On average, people ate about 385 kcal more the next day without measured changes in energy burned. Small studies, short nights, lab settings.
Read moreSocial media pushes more fibre. A 2019 Lancet review linked higher intake with lower risks in observational data, while clinicians warn to increase slowly. Not a weight-loss promise.
Read moreA large US observational study linked morning-focused coffee drinking with lower mortality rates than no coffee, while all-day coffee showed no significant association. Association only, not proof.
Read moreA small randomised study compared a high-fermented-food diet with a high-fibre diet for 10 weeks. The fermented group showed more diverse gut microbes and lower inflammation markers; the primary outcome did not change.
Read moreA UK Biobank study of 60,977 adults compared how regular sleep timing and total sleep hours related to mortality risk. Regularity was the stronger predictor.
Read moreEU labels show nutrients per 100 g or 100 ml. Your bowl is rarely exactly that. One line scales label numbers to what you ate, with worked examples.
Read moreResearchers tested an AI chatbot on 195 dishes in steps. Photo-only guesses were off by about 30% on calories; adding oil, dairy fat and meat type helped; ingredients with amounts helped most.
Read moreA meta-analysis of 22 trials and a 2026 randomised trial looked at creatine plus resistance training in adults over 50. Here is what they measured and where the limits are.
Read moreMany people eat most of their protein at dinner. What studies found about spreading it over your meals, easy ways to do it, and where the evidence stops.
Read moreA 60 day trial gave NMN to 80 healthy middle aged adults. Here is what it found, what it did not find, and why the study is only a first step.
Read moreWhat counts as a plant, easy ways to reach 30 different plants a week, and what the American Gut Project did and did not show. Plus a simple way to keep count.
