  14. A 16-week randomized controlled trial with over 300 participants tested the effects of once-weekly vs. thrice-weekly HIIT sessions (75 minutes total) in overweight adults. Both test groups reduced body fat compared to controls, and did not differ in reduction of body fat and waist circumference. The 3x/week group gained better cardiorespiratory fitness.

  15. RE: biologists.social/@biorxivprep

    Very interesting pre-print on C-section delivery and oxytocin and vasopressin.

    Why voles?
    "The use of voles as subjects here also offers several advantages.
    First, voles tolerate room temperature housing well [36], without the metabolic [37,38], autonomic [12,39] and
    neuroendocrine [40] consequences faced by mice housed at room temperature. Voles are undomesticated,
    which means their OXT and AVP systems have not undergone artificial selection as in mice [41]. "

  16. RFK Jr. Is Already Taking Aim at Antidepressants
    motherjones.com/politics/2025/

    Robert F. Kennedy, Jr has been planted by Trump in the role of Secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services.

    He wants to slash scientifically-established medication, hospital treatment, financial benefits, and government programs for people with these conditions:
    - Chronic illness.
    - Autism.
    - ADHD, and medication including Adderall and Ritalin.
    - Asthma.
    - Obesity.
    - Multiple sclerosis.
    - Psoriasis.
    - Mental illness such as depression and anxiety, and SSRI medication including Prozac and Zoloft.

    RFK Jr says wants people who live with chronic illness such as those listed above — who often require daily preventative medication, a professional carer/assistant, or an assistive device for their daily functioning and to maintain their quality of life and sense of dignity and autonomy — to be stripped of their treatment and put into in "Wellness Farms" for "three or four years if they need it".

    This is the sort of inhumane mistreatment of people requiring medical care that happened in the USSR and still goes on today in North Korea. It should not happen in the USA.

    This move by RFK Jr is going to destroy childhoods, ruin families, cause people financial ruin, and for some people it will cost them their life.

  17. Between 2002 and 2014, U.S. households reduced sugar-sweetened beverage purchases in both absolute and relative terms—racial/ethnic disparities in total sugar-sweetened beverage purchases narrowed, but income disparity patterns persisted.
