Weight Regain After Dieting May Be Driven By Brain Biology
Losing weight is not simply a matter of willpower. New research suggests the human brain is biologically programmed to defend body fat, making it difficult for many people to maintain weight loss even after successful dieting.

Microplastics In Mind: Scientists Discover Plastic Particles In Human Brains
Tiny shards of plastic called microplastics have been detected accumulating in human brains, but there is not yet enough evidence to say whether this is doing us harm, experts have said.

Microplastics Found in Human Brain Tissue, Study Shows Rising Levels
A study has detected microplastics and nanoplastics in human brain tissue, showing a 50 percent increase in levels over recent years. The findings suggest these particles may bypass the blood-brain barrier, leading to concerns over potential health effects. Experts are now focusing on how these plastics enter the brain and their possible role in ne...

The Human Brain Is Not As Fast As We Previously Thought, Study Reveals
The researchers posited that our slow brain processing might be down to necessity, or rather, the lack of it.
