Evolutionary gene loss may help explain why only humans are prone to heart attacks Scientists say the loss of a single gene two to three million years ago in our ancestors may have resulted in a heightened risk of cardiovascular disease in all humans as a species, while also setting up a further risk for red meat-eating humans. ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png #Nutrition #Research ...

New study explains the molecular mechanism for the therapeutic effects of cilantro: Herbs, including cilantro, have long been used as folk remedies

2 days ago

New study explains the molecular mechanism for the therapeutic effects of cilantro Herbs, including cilantro, have a long history of use as folk medicine anticonvulsants. Until now, many of the underlying mechanisms of how the herbs worked remained unknown. In a new study, researchers uncovered the molecular action that enables cilantro to effectively delay certain seizures common in epilepsy and other diseases. ifttt.com/images/no_image_card.png ...
