Each gram of added sugar is associated with an increase in a person's cellular age, even when they eat healthy otherwise, researchers found.

On the other hand, a diet rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and anti-inflammatory nutrients can help a person have a younger biological age on a cellular level, results show.

Kanya Sesser, a former Paralympic track athlete and lifelong skateboarder, took on the challenge in Los Angeles and successfully broke the record for the longest handstand on a skateboard in the LA3 category, which refers to an absence of both legs from above the knees.

Sesser, who was born in Thailand and came to the United States when she was adopted at the age of 5, told Guinness World Records that breaking the record is "one of the life-changing career moments that have happened to me."

Food-related changes in obese cats' gut microbiome have striking similarities to the way diet affects the gut of humans, researchers reported recently in the journal Scientific Reports.

As a result, pet cats might be the best source of information about the human microbiome, and whether altering gut bacteria could help battle obesity, researchers say.

"Animals share our beds. They share our ice cream. There are all these things that people do with their pets that highlight they are a naturally occurring disease model with similar environmental exposures as humans," Weston added in a university news release.

In fact, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention formally recommended this type of "morning after" strategy last month.

Inspired by the full-body "stillsuits" worn in the Dune sci-fi movies, scientists at Cornell University have designed a prototype urine collection and filtration system they say replaces the uncomfortable and unhygienic adult diaper-type maximum absorbency garment worn by generations of long-suffering astronauts since the late 1970s, according to a news release from the Frontiers research platform.

In the report, published Thursday by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, researchers provided alarming details of patients getting injections outside of a medical setting and then falling ill a few days later.

In one instance, four women attended a gathering at a relative's home in Tennessee to get Botox injected into their faces to smooth fine lines and wrinkles about three days before their symptoms began. An investigation later showed the injected product was counterfeit and was administered by a person who was not licensed to do so.

If you do decide to get Botox, have it done in a medical setting by a licensed provider. Thomas recommended making sure providers are licensed appropriately ahead of time.

States with laws requiring safe storage of firearms and mandatory waiting periods had lower suicide death rates among kids younger than 18, researchers report.

For the study, researchers analyzed data on more than 17,000 child firearm deaths that occurred between 2009 and 2020, including more than 6,700 suicides and more than 10,200 murders.

Children exposed to vaping indoors absorb less than one-seventh the amount of nicotine as kids exposed to indoor smoking, blood tests reveal.

"Plague can be treated successfully with antibiotics, but an infected person must be treated promptly to avoid serious complications or death," Alicia Solis, program manager of the Office of Communicable Disease and Emergency Preparedness at the Pueblo Department of Public Health and Environment, said in a news release announcing the case.

This is not the first case of plague that Colorado has seen: The state had 67 reported cases between 1970 and 2022, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In the United States as a whole, an average of seven human plague cases are reported each year.

Caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, the plague is an infectious disease typically spread by fleas. Once known as "The Black Death," which killed millions in Europe during the Middle Ages, the plague circulates naturally among wild rodents and rarely infects humans today.
