(Natural News) A study by British researchers found that patients may still have some form of immunity to COVID-19 long after the antibodies specific to the Wuhan coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) have fallen below detectable levels. Researchers from Public Health England (PHE) and the U.K. Coronavirus Immunology Consortium (UK-CIC), a public research initiative established to stem the COVID-19 pandemic, found that the T […]

(Natural News) An international team of researchers has found further evidence that volcanic eruptions were responsible for the largest mass extinction event in history. In a study published in the journal Geology, the researchers detailed their discovery of coronene, a type of hydrocarbon that can be produced by an intense volcanic eruption, in sedimentary rocks. Link of coronene to […]

(Natural News) Researchers from Italy have discovered strong evidence of hypersaline lakes beneath the south pole of Mars, raising the possibility that Martian life may be swimming in briny waters. In their study, published in Nature Astronomy, the researchers detected a few anomalous areas beneath the Martian south pole using the radar instrument aboard the European Space Agency‘s Mars Express orbiter. Analysis of […]

(Natural News) Chinese researchers investigated the anti-fibrotic effects of curcumin on epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) induced by transforming growth factor-B1 (TGF-B1), as well as the mechanism by which it influences the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway. Their findings were published in the journal Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin. According to animal studies, curcumin has protective effects against the development of renal […]

(Natural News) Researchers from India explored the antihyperlipidemic and anti-tumor properties of the ethanolic extract and phytochemicals derived from Apium graveolens, commonly known as celery, in rodents. They reported their findings in an article published in the Journal of Dietary Supplements. Chromatographic analysis of the seeds of A. graveolens shows that they contain coumarin derivatives like seselin, methoxsalen and […]

(Natural News) Plant biodiversity serves as a natural method for controlling pests and can potentially reduce the need for environmentally harmful pesticides, according to a recent study. Researchers from the German Center for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv) revealed in their report that plant communities with diverse species support insect predator populations while depriving the pests themselves of their preferred food […]

(Natural News) A study led by Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) shows that only four percent of the children tested in seven of the nation’s major pediatric centers were infected with SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. Published Nov. 23 in the journal JAMA Pediatrics, the findings suggest that children are less likely to catch the disease and may be able […]

(Natural News) While it’s well-known that exercise is important to maintain good health, specifics like the best time to work out remain nebulous and confusing. Now, a team led by British researchers suggests that one optimal time to work out is before eating breakfast. In their study, which was published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, the […]

(Natural News) Previous infection with other coronaviruses may lessen the severity of COVID-19, reports a new study. Researchers at Boston University found that owing to genetic similarities with the SARS-CoV-2, prior exposure to other coronaviruses primes the immune system to mount a better response to the virus responsible for COVID-19. Although this doesn’t prevent people from contracting COVID-19, it does lessen […]

(Natural News) A sky survey in Chile has led to the unexpected discovery of a “massive monster galaxy” previously unknown to scientists. In a paper published in the Astrophysical Journal, researchers led by University of Arizona astronomer Christina Williams said that such massive galaxies had never been seen before, hinting that a new population of galaxies is waiting to be discovered.
