57 Countries Confirming Measles Outbreaks https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/57-countries-confirming-measles-outbreaks https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/57-countries-confirming-measles-outbreaks#respond Wed, 12 Mar 2025 23:06:23 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/57-countries-confirming-measles-outbreaks

Over the past two years, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued Travel Health Advisories focused on measles outbreaks.

These advisories highlight where there is an active health risk when people visit the highlighted countries.

On February 21, 2025, the CDC reissued a Level 1, Practice Usual Precautions, alert for 57 countries. This CDC list does not integrate the Region of the Americas, with numerous countries reporting 537 measles outbreaks this year.

Enough water to fill trillions size oceans found circling a black hole https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/enough-water-to-fill-trillions-size-oceans-found-circling-a-black-hole https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/enough-water-to-fill-trillions-size-oceans-found-circling-a-black-hole#respond Tue, 11 Mar 2025 21:15:22 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/enough-water-to-fill-trillions-size-oceans-found-circling-a-black-hole

Astronomers have identified a remarkable water reservoir hidden in a corner of the cosmos, circling a quasar more than 12 billion light-years away.

At that distance, the light we see today began its journey not too long after the universe itself formed.

The water supply in this distant place is huge, containing the equivalent of about 140 trillion times all the water in Earth’s oceans combined.

A team of scientists has just landed a massive grant to build materials strong enough to withstand the blistering heat and radiation inside a fusion reactor, where temperatures soar beyond 180 million degrees Fahrenheit (100 million degrees Celsius).

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E) allocated USD 2.3 million to the University of Kentucky to lead the development of next-generation materials that could make commercial fusion power a reality.

Cancer reversed? New treatment converts tumor cells into healthy ones https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/cancer-reversed-new-treatment-converts-tumor-cells-into-healthy-ones https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/cancer-reversed-new-treatment-converts-tumor-cells-into-healthy-ones#respond Thu, 06 Mar 2025 07:11:30 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/cancer-reversed-new-treatment-converts-tumor-cells-into-healthy-ones

In a trailblazing advancement in cancer therapy, researchers at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) have developed a technology that transforms colon cancer cells into normal-like cells without destroying them.

This innovative approach, led by Professor Kwang-Hyun Cho of the Department of Bio and Brain Engineering, represents a significant departure from traditional cancer treatments that rely on killing cancer cells, often leading to severe side effects and risks of recurrence.

Mushroom compound linked to better health and longer life https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/mushroom-compound-linked-to-better-health-and-longer-life https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/mushroom-compound-linked-to-better-health-and-longer-life#respond Tue, 04 Mar 2025 23:15:11 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/03/mushroom-compound-linked-to-better-health-and-longer-life

“This indicates that ergothioneine influences the metabolism in a similar way to performance-enhancing agents,” Filipović said. He plans to carry out a study involving healthy human volunteers to evaluate whether the compound can similarly enhance performance in people.

By offering a clearer perspective on how ergothioneine improves muscle health, stress resilience, and cellular defenses, this research sets the stage for new strategies aimed at maintaining good health into advanced age.

As further investigations confirm these findings in humans, the mushroom compound ergothioneine may emerge as a valuable resource for countering age-related diseases and promoting a more robust, active life.

face_with_colon_three Year 2017 nad plus is essentially immortality of the colon which can reduce colon aging.


Boosting the level of a coenzyme regulating metabolism could help treat constipation and other aging-related intestinal problems. Researchers in Hangzhou, China, led by Qinsong Sheng from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University and Zhenyu Ju from Hangzhou Normal University studied differences in colon function between young and old mice. They showed that older animals had more difficulty in defecation through the gastrointestinal tract and that this was associated with a lower level of the coenzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). Treatment with an NAD precursor improved defecation ability, whereas administering a drug that blocks NAD synthesis led to worsened colon function in mice. These findings point to NAD as a key regulator of colon motility and suggest a therapeutic strategy for older individuals with bowel-movement problems.

Anti-Aging Treatment Breakthrough: Japanese Scientists’ Regenerative Gene Transfer Success https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/02/anti-aging-treatment-breakthrough-japanese-scientists-regenerative-gene-transfer-success https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/02/anti-aging-treatment-breakthrough-japanese-scientists-regenerative-gene-transfer-success#respond Sat, 01 Mar 2025 01:12:05 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2025/02/anti-aging-treatment-breakthrough-japanese-scientists-regenerative-gene-transfer-success

Genes from regenerative organisms rejuvenate intestinal stem cells in fruit flies.

In a groundbreaking experiment, Japanese researchers transferred regenerative genes to fruit flies, leading to improved intestinal health and enhanced stem cell activity. This discovery opens new possibilities for anti-aging strategies in higher organisms, including humans, through targeted gene therapy.

Researchers including those from the University of Tokyo’s Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences transferred genes from simple organisms capable of regenerating their bodies into common fruit flies, more complex animals that cannot. They found the transferred gene suppressed an age-related intestinal issue in the flies. Their results suggest studying genes specific to animals with high regenerative capability may uncover new mechanisms for rejuvenating stem cell function and extending the healthy lifespan of unrelated organisms.
