You don’t have to lose weight to lower your diabetes risk, scientists say

A major study from Tübingen found that prediabetic individuals who normalized their blood sugar through healthy habits — even without shedding pounds — cut their risk of type 2 diabetes by 71%. Researchers discovered that improved fat distribution, particularly less abdominal fat, was key. The findings suggest that focusing solely on weight loss may overlook the true drivers of diabetes prevention.

Surprising study reveals what really kills fatty liver disease patients

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects over a third of the global population and is linked to serious health problems. A new study has revealed that high blood pressure, diabetes, and low HDL cholesterol are the deadliest cardiometabolic risk factors for patients with MASLD, with high blood pressure proving to be even riskier than diabetes. The findings also show that obesity and body mass index significantly influence mortality, and that each additional risk factor compounds the danger.

Scientists uncover a mysterious Jurassic lizard with snake-like jaws

A strange Jurassic lizard discovered on Scotland’s Isle of Skye is shaking up what we know about snake evolution. Named Breugnathair elgolensis, the “false snake of Elgol” combined hook-like, python-style teeth and jaws with the short body and limbs of a lizard. Researchers spent nearly a decade studying the 167-million-year-old fossil, revealing that it belonged to a newly defined group of squamates and carried features of both snakes and geckos.
