Science commentator Laurie Winkless joins Kathryn with a new study that looked at 86,000 people in 27 European countries to understand how multilingualism may influence their brain health as they age. The results might just have you reaching for the Duolingo app. This year's Global Carbon Project has found emissions from fossil fuels have risen by 1.1% to reach their highest level yet. And there's new hope for people suffering from anaemia; researchers in Switzerland have developed a new iron supplement for food that's tasteless and more quickly absorbed than iron sulfate. Laurie Winkless is a physicist and science writer.
In this episode, dermatologist Dr Leona Yip joins Bahar to explore the science and emotion behind hair health. From hormonal influences and the rise of hair shedding, to the emotional toll of hair loss and the latest biotechnologies reshaping treatment options, this conversation breaks down the myths and misinformation that dominate social media. Dr Yip, one of Australia’s leading experts in scalp and hair loss disorders, explains why early intervention matters, how to distinguish thinning from shedding, and what’s emerging in the field of regenerative dermatology. Together, they discuss the growing conversation around hair as a marker of wellbeing, identity, and empowerment. Key Takeaways Hair health has become one of beauty’s most discussed and researched topics. Early intervention is crucial for better long-term outcomes. Social media often oversimplifies complex medical issues around hair loss. Hormones play a role but are not the only factor. Knowing the difference between hair thinning and shedding can shape treatment success. Scalp health is foundational to healthy hair growth. Advanced biotechnologies are creating more precise, evidence-based solutions. Emotional wellbeing and self-image are deeply tied to hair health. Patient empowerment and proper medical guidance lead to better results.

For decades, most medical and biological research has been conducted primarily on male volunteers and male animals in laboratory studies. One of the main reasons was convenience - male hormone levels are more stable, whereas female hormones shift across the menstrual cycle, introducing variability that researchers historically preferred to avoid. But that convenience has come at a cost. When treatments are developed and tested mainly in males, the results don't always translate well to female physiology. This means that women have often been prescribed medications or therapies that were never fully tested on their biology. In some cases, women have experienced more side effects, reduced effectiveness, or entirely different outcomes than men. As we learn more, it's becoming clear that male and female bodies age differently too. And new anti-ageing treatments may need to take these differences into account. A new study published in the journal Ageing shows exactly why. The researchers discovered a combination of two drugs that extended lifespan in frail, elderly male mice by an impressive 73 percent from the start of treatment while also improving their mobility, endurance and memory. However, the same therapy did not provide the same benefits to female mice. They tested oxytocin, which is known to support tissue repair, along with another drug known as OT+A5i, which blocks a key pathway involved in regulating cell growth, differentiation, and death. The study involved 25-month-old mice which is roughly equivalent to a 75-year-old human. In male mice: Lifespan increased by 73 percent from the start of treatment. Median lifespan increased by 14 percent. Risk of death at any time decreased three-fold. Endurance, grip strength, and agility improved. Short-term memory improved. Blood biomarkers shifted toward younger, healthier levels. But in female mice: No significant extension of lifespan. No consistent improvements in strength or memory. Blood biomarkers did not shift in the same way. Researchers suggest several possibilities for the difference: Female inflammatory signalling pathways differ from males Hormonal environments change ageing differently in men and women The interaction between oxytocin and TGF-beta networks may not play the same role in female tissues This highlights the point that ageing is not identical in men and women, and treatments to slow ageing may need to be tailored accordingly.

For well over a decade, I've been fascinated—friends might say obsessed—with what's truly possible for human biology, especially when it comes to longevity and ageing. Like many, I began on the mechanistic path: studying hydration, nutrition, and supplementation, endlessly experimenting, convinced that health was a formula I could optimise into perfection. But in time, I realised something deeper. Beyond hydration, clean foods, and sleep—beyond all the science we can measure—lies the consciousness we bring to the process of ageing itself. The way we speak to our bodies, the patterns we reinforce through thought, emotion, and self-perception—all of it shapes how we grow older, or perhaps, how we don't. In this episode, I want to explore that intersection: where biology meets awareness. Where the body listens to the stories we tell it. These are the principles and practices I've lived with for years—bridging science and spirit—to slow the biological clock and expand what we think is possible for our human form. By the end of this episode, if nothing else, I hope you feel 45 minutes younger.

Urinary tract infections — or UTIs — aren't the most glamorous topic, but they're incredibly important, and we just don't talk about them enough. If you've ever had one, you'll know how miserable they can be: the burning, the stinging, those endless trips to the loo, the pain, and that bone-crushing fatigue. They can really knock you sideways.For many women, UTIs become more common — and more stubborn — during perimenopause and menopause.In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Helen Lake, a specialist urology nurse, to help us understand why UTIs happen, why they mustn't be ignored, and what you can do about them — from medical treatments to nutrition and supplements.Helen explains everything you need to know about identifying, understanding, and managing UTIs — and hopefully banishing them for good. We cover the key symptoms, prevention strategies like staying hydrated and double-voiding, why test results aren't always conclusive, and when antibiotics are needed. We also look at the role of beneficial bacteria, cranberry and D-mannose, vaginal moisturisers, topical oestrogen, and how to advocate for yourself with your GP.If you've found this episode helpful, please share it with a friend who might benefit too.

Firefighters say they no longer have confidence in their ageing vehicle fleet, and fear they could let them down in life or death situations. They say they have learned to get by, but worry they won't be able to continue plugging the gaps. Fire and Emergency New Zealand says new trucks are on the way, and insists the current trucks are being well maintained. Despite this, the firefighters' union is planning further industrial action, saying FENZ needs to do more. On what's typically one of the busiest nights of the year for firefighters, Guy Fawke's, Checkpoint's Evie Richardson tagged along with one of the country's largest fire crews to see what they're up against.

In this week's BeBattleReady podcast, Simon Ward welcomes back Dr Tommy Wood to explore one of the most researched yet misunderstood supplements - creatine. While most athletes associate it with muscle strength, Tommy explains why its benefits go far beyond the gym, extending to brain health, cognitive function, and ageing well. Together, they unpack how creatine works, who should consider supplementing, the differences between athletic and cognitive benefits, and why it might be particularly valuable for older athletes and post-menopausal women. Key Points Discussed: Creatine as a brain protector: Originally known for supporting strength and power, creatine also acts as an energy buffer for the brain, helping maintain cellular energy after head trauma and possibly reducing cognitive decline. Who benefits most: While everyone can gain from adequate creatine levels, the strongest evidence shows benefits for older adults, athletes at risk of head injury, and women in peri- and post-menopause — particularly for memory and bone health. Dosing, loading, and myths: You don't need the old “loading phase.” Regular small doses (3–5 g daily) are safe and effective. The minor weight gain some notice is simply better muscle hydration, not “bloating.” Sleep, mood, and cognition: Studies show creatine can offset mental fatigue and cognitive decline during sleep deprivation, and even support mood when used alongside standard therapy for depression. Safety and practical takeaways: Creatine monohydrate (especially the Creapure® form) remains the gold standard. It's safe for most people, though those with kidney issues should consult their doctor. Foods like sardines, herring, mackerel, and red meat also provide natural sources. Key Quotation: “Creatine is probably one of the most studied supplements in the world — and on balance, it's safe, effective, and beneficial for both the body and the brain.” — Dr Tommy Wood Connect with Dr. Tommy Wood: Website: drtommywood.com Instagram: DrTommyWood Substack: Better Brain Fitness Podcast: Better Brain Fitness Podcast Dr. Tommy Wood's Book (Pre-order now): The Stimulated Mind: Future-Proof Your Brain from Dementia and Stay Sharp at Any Age (Release: March 24, 2026) Book Recommendations: Attention Span by Gloria Mark - how to find focus for a fulfilling life.

Hosts Michael Connaughton and Kevin Williams are joined by Annalee Kruger. Annalee started Care Right Inc, a VIRTUAL consultancy, in 2011, after working in Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRC's) for 22 years. Families were constantly blind-sided and ill-prepared for medical crisis (strokes, dementia progression, urinary tract infections, etc.) and were thrust into making major care decisions on behalf of aging parents. Families had no idea how to navigate senior care, dementia, changing roles within the family, how to manage their own lives plus new needs of aging parents, and they also had no idea what their aging parents had in order. She is a national speaker on aging, caregiving, dementia, family dynamics/mediation, and end-of- life. Major financial services conferences she has presented at: IWI, FPA, NAPA, NAIFA, AICPA, CIMA, Truist, D.A. Davidson, and many other conferences in the healthcare/senior care industry. She authored, The Invisible Patient: The Emotional, Financial, and Physical Toll on Family Caregivers. Annalee also offers training packages for the financial services and healthcare industries—which include in-person, webinar, and masterminds. Annalee also created the Elder Planning Specialist certification program, specifically for CFP's who want to earn a certificate to better identify and address the needs of their aging book of business. They discuss: Caregiving options and the challenges Creating an Ageing plan Navigating family crisis And much more.

The somewhat ageing but still impressive Alfa Romeo Giulia sedan and Stelvio SUV will remain in production for several more years. The company confirming that the slower than expected uptake of electric models was behind the production extension. Speaking to U.K. publication Autocar, the managing director of Stellantis Premium brands Jules Tilestone said that with 80 per cent of the U.K market still internal combustion engines, people are looking for fun-to-drive performance cars and the Giulia and Stelvio still offer that in spades. Alfa Romeo has pushed back replacements for its performance duo originally due for 2026.

In our first episode of the XXplored Women's Brain Health podcast, our resident expert and host Dr Laura Stankeviciute from University of Gothenburg engages with leading neuroscientists Professor Liisa Galea from University of Toronto and Dr Maria Teresa Ferretti from Karolinska Institutet to explore the critical intersection of sex, gender, and brain health. Together our guests discuss their personal journeys into neuroscience, the biological differences in brain health, the impact of hormonal changes, and the vulnerability of women to Alzheimer's disease. The conversation also addresses the barriers to inclusion in clinical research, the implications of neurosexism, and the importance of precision medicine. The episode emphasises the need for early diagnosis and the societal stigma surrounding women's health issues, while advocating for a more inclusive and evidence-based approach to brain health research and treatment. This first show sets the scene for what will be an ongoing series of shows, delivered within the Dementia Researcher podcast. Takeaways ● Sex differences shape the brain at every level – structure, hormones, immunity, and function. ● Menopause is a key vulnerability window for women's brain ageing and Alzheimer's risk. ● Women face higher Alzheimer's prevalence, not just because they live longer. ● Women were excluded from trials for decades, leaving dangerous gaps in knowledge. ● Fear of neurosexism and misunderstandings of feminism slowed progress. ● Precision medicine must include sex and gender or risk missing early diagnoses. ● Research funding and clinical guidelines lag far behind need. ● Momentum is building: younger researchers and public interest are pushing change. ● Core message: Different ≠ inferior. Diversity drives discovery. -- Find more information on our guests, and a full transcript of this podcast on our website at: https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk/podcast -- The views and opinions expressed by guests in this podcast represent those of the guests and do not necessarily reflect those of University College London, Dementia Researcher or its funders. -- Follow us on social media: https://www.instagram.com/dementia_researcher/ https://www.facebook.com/Dementia.Researcher/ https://www.twitter.com/demrescommunity https://www.linkedin.com/company/dementia-researcher https://www.bsky.app/profile/dementiare…archer.bsky.social -- Download and Register with our Community App: https://www.onelink.to/dementiaresearcher

In this solo episode of The Happy Menopause, I'll be exploring how simple, sustainable changes in the way we eat, move, sleep, and manage stress can transform your menopause experience.We'll look at the six key pillars of lifestyle medicine — nutrition, movement, sleep, stress management, healthy relationships, and avoiding harmful substances — and how they apply specifically to perimenopause and postmenopause. From the power of protein for energy, muscle and mood, to the benefits of leafy greens, vitamin C, and phytoestrogens, I'll share practical diet tips that can ease symptoms such as hot flushes, brain fog, low mood, weight gain, and poor sleep.But lifestyle medicine is about more than food. We'll also explore the role of exercise for bone health, cardiovascular fitness and hormone balance, why stress management is so crucial for symptom control, and the sleep strategies that can help you finally get some rest. These small steps don't replace medical treatments, but they work beautifully alongside them, helping you to address the root causes of symptoms and protect your long-term health.Whether you're just starting your perimenopause journey, navigating postmenopause, or supporting someone you love, this episode is packed with evidence-based advice to help you feel stronger, more resilient and more in control.If you love The Happy Menopause, please tell your friends and family, and don't forget to hit follow or subscribe on your favourite podcast platform.
