Stronger flu shot linked to nearly 55% lower Alzheimer's risk
A surprising new study suggests that a stronger flu shot could offer older adults significantly greater protection against Alzheimer's disease. Researchers at UTHealth Houston analyzed nearly 200,000 adults ages 65 and older and found that those who received a high-dose influenza vaccine had a nearly 55% lower risk of developing Alzheimer's, compared with a 40% reduction previously associated with the standard-dose vaccine.

New diabetes implant uses electricity to lower blood sugar and promote weight loss
Researchers have developed a remarkable new electronic implant that could transform type 2 diabetes treatment by lowering blood sugar without insulin or traditional drugs. The device uses a special electrically powered catalyst to convert excess glucose into a substance that the body eliminates through urine, potentially preventing unwanted energy from being stored as fat. In diabetic mice, the implant precisely controlled blood sugar and promoted weight loss.
