🔬 Cholera Toxin Shrinks Tumors & Living Bacteria Found Inside Kidney Stones

from 🎙️ Science News Daily | Peer Review'd · host Peer Review'd

This episode reveals groundbreaking discoveries that challenge everything we thought we knew about disease and treatment. Scientists discover a cholera toxin that targets cancer tumors without harming healthy tissue, while another team finds living bacteria thriving inside kidney stones—suggesting we've been treating them wrong all along. We explore why ultra-processed foods trick our natural nutritional instincts, how a nasal spray could stop the next pandemic, and why gray wolves in Alaska have started hunting sea otters in a behavior scientists never expected to witness. Plus: ancient human fossils fill critical gaps in our evolutionary timeline, and a mysterious cosmic object is sending signals unlike anything astronomers have ever seen.Subscribe to Peer Review'd Newsletter: https://peerreviewd.com/Love Science?
