Gestational diabetes appears to have become more common during the Covid-19 pandemic due to both changes in the population and changes related to the pandemic. The number of children diagnosed with Type-2 diabetes continued to rise in the year after the Covid-19 pandemic began, according to research. Another study, also being presented at ENDO 2023, the Endocrine Society’s annual meeting in Illinois, US, showed that more pregnant women developed gestational diabetes during the Covid-19 pandemic than in the preceding two years. In the first study, researchers from Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, “hypothesised that in the first year of the Covid-19 pandemic, many factors including school shutdowns causing kids to be less active, snacking more often, or eating more unhealthy foods led to increased weight gain and more cases of Type-2 d

To make espresso coffee, hot water is forced through finely-ground coffee beans, creating a concentrated extract. This is often used as a base for other drinks, including the trendy espresso martini. Recent research has suggested that coffee could also have beneficial effects against certain neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease. In healthy people, tau proteins help stabilise structures in the brain, but when certain diseases develop, the proteins can clump together into fibrils — a process that is believed to be involved in the onset of Al
