Using bergamot essential oil via aromatherapy or topically may help improve your mood, hair health, and skin.
Ready to add bergamot essential oil to add to your cabinet? (We promise we’re not trying to recruit you to another pyramid scheme.)
Bergamot oil is extracted from the rinds of fruit on bergamot orange trees (aka Citrus bergamia). If you like to sip on Earl grey tea, you’ve already enjoyed bergamot oil in a similar form.
But it’s also a sweet, zesty fave in the essential oil world with a bunch of health benefits thanks to its <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="/eat/anti-inflammatio…

Genetic differences are definitively the cause of differences in life span between species, self-evidently so. But within our own species, a few decades of earnest investigation has failed to turn up much evidence for genetic variants to be all that important in determining natural variation in human life span. If anything, the development of large genetic databases, such as the UK Biobank, has led to a reduction in the estimated contribution of genetic variation to life span variation. Near all associations between gene variants and longevity have tiny effect sizes, and also fail to replicate in other study populations, suggesting that there is little here to find, or at best a l…

Heavier weights vs. more reps is as hot a debate as sweet vs. salty. So, you’re not alone if you’ve ever wondered which is better for building strength.
Let’s see if we can settle things so that you win.
How many reps you should be lifting is goal-specific
“Strength training has a long list of incredible benefits,” says exercise physiologist Sharon Gam, CSCS.
To name a few, it can decrease the risk of many chronic diseases, in…

“When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.” ~Lao Tzu
While this Lao Tzu quote may sound familiar, I recently learned there is a second portion of that quote that often gets omitted.
“When the student is truly ready…the teacher will disappear.”
The first part of this quote was a healing anchor for me as I went through what I call a thirteen, or a divine storm.
In one year’s time, I went through a devastating divorce, was robbed, got in two car accidents, and lost a dear friend to a heart attack. I felt like I was watching everything in my life burn to ash, including my deepest desire of having a family, and found myself on my knees doing something I had never done before: asking for help.

In today’s open access paper, researchers map out the various epithelialprogenitor cell populations responsible for producing and then maintaining the thymus, finding that these cells are quite diverse, with several types participating at different times during development and adult life. The thymus is of great interest in the context of aging because (a) it is where thymocytes mature into T cells of the adaptive immune system, and (b) it atrophies with age, active tissue replaced by fat, and the supply of new T cells greatly diminished. This is one of the major contributions to the age-related decline of the immune system. A better understanding o…
