Cincinnati Bioresearch Discovers Detoxifying Junk Food

Posted by Sam Asher on Thu, Apr 10, 2014

Occasionally the most interesting discoveries are made simply by investigating a chance observation. Take for instance our earlier MSU blog about venom-resistant mice, whose analgesic usefulness was only realized after noticing that they didn’t seem to mind being stung by scorpions. Now at the University of Cincinnati, scientists have discovered a previously unknown property of a junk food ingredient that actually helps remove toxins from the body.

UC Life Science Researchers Discover the Truth of Neonatal Infections

Posted by Sam Asher on Thu, Nov 14, 2013

One of the major health concerns for a newborn child is viral and bacterial infection. Prevailing medical belief holds that babies have underdeveloped immune systems and thus are simply unable to fight back. New evidence from the University of Cincinnati overturns this claim and provides insight on a better way to fight these invaders.
