Hey crew, Max here! 👋 The last days of spring are ticking down, and — surprise — science still refuses to nap. This week we raided fresh papers on brain-saving exercise hormones, shock-wave gadgets for Parkinson's feet, and blood tests that predict if you'll need help tying your shoes long before you actually wobble. Think of it as a turbo-charged warm-up lap before we sprint into summer (and yeah, that "summer body" is more mitochondria than six-pack).
Top 3 things you'll learn this week: 🥇A dirt-cheap blood marker that shouts "frailty alert" years ahead of time. 🥈 How pulsing blood flow may quietly fray your brain's wiring — and what to do about it. 🥉The first frog aging clock (because limb regrowth envy is real).
