Despite clear health warnings, many Americans have a hard time shaking the salt habit. New research suggests that consuming more potassium could help salt-lovers dodge some of the dangers.
A study conducted in mice suggests that daily exercise could help to counteract some of the negative impacts of college-age drinking later in life.
A woman smashed a longstanding world record in the 200-meter sprint at the age of 91, prompting scientists to delve into her physiology to learn how she can run so fast. Researchers will present their findings at the 2025 American Physiology Summit in Baltimore. The Summit is the flagship annual meeting of the American Physiological Society (APS).
Ever notice how going for a run on an 80-degree day feels scorching in the spring but comfortable at the end of August? New research shows that the reason for this is that we gradually lose our tolerance for heat during cold seasons, but it鈥檚 possible to regain it with a brief regimen of hot and humid workouts.
New research suggests that lycopene, which gives fruits like tomatoes and watermelons their bright red color, supports healthy liver functioning and may help prevent weight gain.
Erythritol, a commonly used sugar substitute often marketed as 鈥渉ealthy,鈥� may impair blood vessel health by disrupting the brain鈥檚 ability to produce a critical compound, according to new research. Scientists will present their findings at the 2025 American Physiology Summit in Baltimore. The Summit is the flagship annual meeting of the American Physiological Society (APS).
Getting enough exercise can be especially helpful鈥攁nd especially challenging鈥攆or people with Parkinson鈥檚 disease. In a new study, patients who received a weekly email newsletter with Parkinson鈥檚-specific exercise tips saw a significant improvement in exercise capacity after 12 weeks.
Simply watching virtual reality (VR) scenes of a warm environment during exercise may influence physiologic processes that control body temperature. Early findings suggest that viewing hot scenes increases sweating, helping the body cool down more efficiently during exercise. Researchers will present their findings at the 2025 American Physiology Summit in Baltimore. The Summit is the flagship annual meeting of the American Physiological Society (APS).
The American Physiological Society (APS) is pleased to announce Wolfgang M. Kuebler, PhD, MD, FAPS, as the recipient of the 2025 Presidential Service Award.
The American Physiological Society (APS) is pleased to announce the recipients of the Society鈥檚 most prestigious and highly competitive awards. Awardees will be recognized for their achievements at the American Physiology Summit, APS鈥� flagship annual meeting, to be held April 24鈥�27, 2025, in Baltimore.
Using cannabis products during pregnancy may negatively affect offspring lung development and function, according to new research.
Short activity breaks throughout the day together with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) every other day can counteract negative changes in heart health associated with a sedentary lifestyle.
Nobel Laureate James Rothman, PhD; Holly A. Ingraham, PhD, FASEB鈥檚 2024 Lifetime Achievement awardee; and George A. Brooks, PhD, FAPS, the American Physiological Society鈥檚 (APS) 2025 Walter Cannon Award recipient, are among the highlighted speakers who will attend the American Physiology Summit. The Summit, APS鈥� flagship annual meeting, will be held April 24鈥�27 in Baltimore.
The American Physiological Society (APS) is proud to announce the successful implementation of Subscribe to Open (S2O), achieving its goal of making 10 of its primary research journals fully open access in 2025 through S2O.
The American Physiological Society (APS) is pleased to announce its leadership election results for 2025鈥�2026.
Body position can affect the accuracy of vital sign measurements that indicate arterial stiffness鈥攁 risk factor for heart disease鈥攁ccording to new research. Sitting down during certain tests may cause a spike in arterial stiffness readings that does not reflect a true increase.
Study from the American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular is the first to examine parallel lung and placental changes in response to prenatal steroids.
New research reveals significant differences in gene expression related to metabolism, inflammation and cardioprotection in the fat tissue of lean and obese mice. These findings could advance the development of targeted therapies for different types of adipose tissue, addressing critical health concerns.
Soaking in a hot tub may be preferable to an icy cold bath after exercise if the goal is to maintain optimum performance, according to a new study. This is especially true for those competing in back-to-back races in a short time span. The research will be presented at the 2024 Integrative Physiology of Exercise conference, Nov. 20鈥�22, in State College, Pennsylvania.
Kettlebell training may help reduce inflammation and increase muscle strength as we age, even in people who have not been physically active in the past. The findings from a new study will be presented at the 2024 Integrative Physiology of Exercise conference, Nov. 20鈥�22, in State College, Pennsylvania.
