Obesity, most of the times, is linked with fats, proteins, carbohydrates, sugar. However, the real culprit of the increasing problem of obesity is our brain. Foods do its own work in our body; we should do our own work to consume the calories. But...

A gene encoding for cytokine may prevent to development the onset of hyperglycemia. Cytokine, a protein, stimulates and obstructs the creation and function of the immune cells from making insulin-producing cells. Researchers from the University...

Exercise has so many advantages. Australian researchers of Monash Medical School have recently found another benefit of exercise. Exercise can restrict the growth of cancer cells too. It develops the anticancer effect of protein that obstructs...
