New research from the Child Development Laboratory at the University of Maryland shows that shyness in kids could relate to the manner in which a stress-related gene in children interacts with being raised by stressed-out parents.
EcoNugenics® is proud to introduce BreastDefend™, a new nutraceutical compound formulated specifically to promote and maintain breast health. Physician-formulated BreastDefend is crafted from eight exclusive, clinically tested compounds, including scientifically supported nutrients, herbs, and medicinal mushrooms.
A pivotal registration trial to evaluate in-home use of the Medtronic MiniMed(r) 670G hybrid closed-loop insulin delivery system over 3 months showed a significant reduction in HbA1c levels for both adolescents and adults with type 1 diabetes.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), an omega-3 fatty acid, may protect against the accumulation of a protein believed to be linked to Alzheimer's disease, according to the results of a new study published in the March 30, 2005 issue of The Journal of Neuroscience. The study used Martek DHA, which is produced from microalgae.
