Researchers successfully made sourdough bread using ancient yeast found on Ötzi the Iceman's mummified remains. The cold-loving yeast strains could help create energy-saving fermentation methods for food production.
Researchers discovered ancient yeast thriving inside Ötzi the Iceman's mummified body and used it to bake what they call "very very good" sourdough bread. The cold-adapted glacier yeasts infiltrated his body shortly after his death 5,300 years ago and may still be active today.
After reviewing hundreds of studies, experts confirm magnesium and creatine show real evidence for easing menopause symptoms. Millions of women can now make informed choices beyond the social media hype.
A Jharkhand company is converting steel plant and refinery emissions into premium supplements and skincare ingredients using microalgae that eat carbon dioxide. The technology could help polluting industries cut emissions while actually making money.
Researchers in Sweden created a 3D-printable construction material made entirely from yeast and other renewable ingredients. The biodegradable material could replace fossil-based products like plaster and plastic in building design.
Nigeria is shifting from donor-dependent imports to local manufacturing of life-saving vitamin supplements that help pregnant women have healthier babies. The move could make essential prenatal care accessible to millions more expectant mothers across Africa's most populous nation.
A popular muscle-building supplement might help fight depression when combined with traditional treatments. While the evidence is still early, researchers say creatine is worth exploring as an affordable addition to mental health care.
Swedish researchers have created eco-friendly building material from baker's yeast that can be 3D-printed into wall panels, room dividers, and light-filtering screens. The biodegradable innovation could replace plastic-heavy interior products while using waste from brewing and agriculture.
A groundbreaking twin study found that taking affordable daily fiber supplements improved memory test scores in people over 60 in just 12 weeks. The same cognitive test is used to detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease.
Scientists discovered that a natural molecule produced during fasting dramatically improves CAR T cell therapy against cancer in mice. Human trials are already underway to test whether this affordable supplement could help patients beat cancers that normally resist treatment.
A Nigerian state is rolling out an affordable nutrient supplement to prevent malnutrition in babies and toddlers before it becomes severe. The breakthrough product costs less than existing treatments and uses locally sourced ingredients.
Scientists at MIT taught an AI to speak yeast's genetic language, boosting medicine production by up to three times while cutting costly trial and error. The breakthrough could make life-saving drugs cheaper and faster to produce.
Scientists at UC San Diego discovered that a natural fungal supplement reduces vaccine side effects while helping antibodies last longer. The breakthrough could make vaccines more appealing and effective for millions of people worldwide.
