Researchers at the University of Chicago Medicine and Columbia University report that eating more fruits and vegetables during the day was associated with better sleep that night in healthy young adults.

Ketogenic diet protects young rats from prenatal stress effects
Researchers in Italy have found that a ketogenic diet can shield young rats from the long-term mental and behavioral impacts of prenatal stress. The high-fat, low-carbohydrate regimen, administered after weaning, improved sociability and reduced stress-related issues in the offspring of stressed mothers. These findings, presented at the ECNP conference in Amsterdam, suggest potential early dietary interventions, though human trials are needed.

The study highlights gender-specific effects, with males showing no similar benefits. These findings suggest potential for personalized nutrition to prevent cognitive decline.
