Young Blood, Cinnamon Memory, Microplastic Filter

Today you’ll learn about how scientists are using a drug meant for arthritis to mimic blood transfusions, how cinnamon could potentially be improving our brain’s health, and how a new filter is capable of removing 99% of microplastics from water. Young Blood“Arthritis drug mimics "young blood" transfusions to reverse aging in mice” By Michael Irvinghttps://newatlas.com/medical/arthritis-drug-young-blood-reverses-aging-mice/“Stromal niche inflammation mediated by IL-1 signalling is a targetable driver of haematopoietic ageing” by Carl A.
