          Is alcohol good or bad for you? The question of whether alcohol is good or bad for you depends on various factors, including the amount consumed, the frequency of consumption, and individual health conditions. It's essential to consider the potential benefits and risks associated with alcohol consumption. Moderate alcohol consumption has been linked to some potential health benefits, primarily in the context of certain types of alcoholic beverages like red wine. Some studies have suggested that moderate alcohol intake may be associated with a reduced risk of heart disease, particularly for older adults. Red wine, in particular, contains antioxidants like resveratrol, which may have positive effects on cardiovascular health. On the other hand, excessive alcohol consumption can lead to numerous negative health consequences. These can include liver damage (such as cirrhosis), increased risk of certain cancers, addiction, mental health issues, impaired judgment, and increased

   More green spaces linked to slower                  biological aging In a recent study, researchers from Northwestern University investigated whether residing close to green environments, such as parks and densely vegetated areas, could influence how our bodies age and promote healthy ageing in general. Biological ageing was found to be slowed down by areas with more greenery, according a Northwestern Medicine study. On average, people who lived closer to more greenery were 2.5 years younger biologically than those who did not But not everyone benefited equally from green spaces, as researchers discovered differences in socioeconomic position, racial makeup, and gender. "We typically focus on things like eating well, exercising, and getting enough sleep when we think about staying healthy as we get older. the study's first author and a postdoctoral researcher.

 Multiple Advantages of GLP-1 Agonists in Type 2 Diabetes With Cirrhosis of the Liver NEW OBSERVATIONAL DATA: In people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and compensated liver cirrhosis, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) use reduces the risk for death, cardiovascular disease, decompensated cirrhosis, and liver failure.                             METHODOLOGY: Data from Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database were used in this population-based cohort study. 467 matched pairs of GLP-1 RA users and nonusers with T2D and compensated liver cirrhosis (mean age, 57) were created using propensity-score matching. In multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazards models, all-cause mortality, cardiovascular events, decompensated cirrhosis, and other important outcomes were compared. TAKEAWAY: Death rates per 1000 person-years during a mean follow-up of around 3 years were 27.5 in GLP-1 RA users compared

  Covid pandemic linked to surge in                child and teen diabetes There has been an unusual rise in the number of children and teenagers around the world diagnosed with type 1 diabetes since Covid, say researchers. A new study  FROM  collated available data from different countries, including the UK, on more than 38,000 young people diagnosed during the pandemic.  in cases of diabetes as "substantial". More work is needed to understand why the rise is happening, they say. Some of the rise could be attributed to catch-up - from backlogs and delays when health services were shut - but does not explain all of the newly diagnosed cases, say scientists. Before the pandemic, the incidence rate of childhood type 1 diabetes was already increasing - by about 3% a year. The recent study found: there was a 14% rise in the rate during the first year of the pandemic, compared to before Covid in the second year of Covid, the rate was up about 27% on pre-pandemic levels Research
