New research explains why our waistlines expand in middle age. Aging shifts stem cells into overdrive to create more belly fat, finds new mouse experiments later validated on human cells. This is the first evidence that our bellies expand with age due to stem cell high output of new fat cells. 🧬🦠🍽️📊

High fructose intake through sweetened food and beverages in pregnant women has been associated with an increased susceptibility to diabetes and cardiovascular disease, as well as neurological and cognitive impairments in the offspring, according to a study…
🧠 High fructose intake during pregnancy can impair learning and memory in offspring, according to research by Hiroya Yamada's team at Fujita Health University.
🧠 The study found that fetal exposure to high fructose reduces the generation of new neurons (neurogenesis) in brain regions vital for learning and cognition.
🧠 Prenatal high fructose exposure causes epigenetic changes in fetal neural stem cells that persist into adulthood, altering gene activity crucial for brain development.
🧠 Researchers suggest that neural stem cells may "remember" maternal nutrition during pregnancy, explaining how temporary dietary imbalances can lead to lasting changes in brain function.
