Take Your Thyroid Medications as PrescribedGraves’ hyperthyroidism is treated with an antithyroid drug, which slows down the production of thyroid hormone, says Nguyen.“To improve symptoms, including those interfering with sleep, treating the Graves’ disease itself is the priority, [because] that’s the underlying trigger,” she says.Antithyroid medication is not the same as thyroid hormone replacement, which is used for an underactive thyroid. “With Graves’ disease, the body is making too much thyroid hormone, so the goal is to bring those levels down,” Nguyen says.In a study of people with Graves’ disease who had sleep issues, normalizing thyroid levels with treatment improved…

An extraordinary high-energy event detected deep in space is giving astronomers a rare opportunity to study some of the Universe’s most extreme phenomena. On July 2, 2025, the China-led Einstein Probe (EP) space telescope spotted an exceptionally bright X-ray source during a routine survey of the sky. The object’s brightness changed rapidly, making it immediately stand out from typical cosmic X-ray sources. The unusual detection prompted observatories around the world to begin follow-up observations. The research was coordinated by the EP Science Center at the National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC), with scientists from research institutions in China…
One of the orchestrators of the Feeding Our Future scam, the fraud that stole a quarter of a billion dollars in pandemic food assistance money in Minnesota, has been captured — in Somalia. The arrest of Abdikerm Abdelahi Eidleh underscored the connection between the scam and the Somali immigration community, which was at the center of the fraud. Prosecutors said the FBI tracked Mr. Eidleh to Mogadishu, Somalia’s capital, where he was taken into custody on Thursday, nearly four years after he was first charged in the U.S. “Eidleh’s capture shows that, if you commit fraud against the American taxpayer…

More time in the sun may help lower dementia risk, according to a large new study. The reason may have to do with daytime light’s effects on circadian rhythms, the body’s internal 24-hour clock that helps regulate sleep, wakefulness, hormones, and other brain and body functions.[1]“Outdoor light is very bright and can help strengthen circadian rhythms, which we think is a good thing,” says Erik S. Musiek, MD, PhD, a researcher, professor of neurology, and a codirector of the Center on Biological Rhythms and Sleep at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. Dr. Musiek was not involved in the…
The theory of panspermia proposes that life, or the ingredients needed for it, can spread throughout the cosmos aboard asteroids, comets, and other rocky objects. When life develops on a planet, powerful impacts can blast material from its surface into space, potentially carrying microscopic organisms or organic compounds to other worlds. Scientists have long debated whether this kind of transfer may have occurred between Earth and Mars (in both directions). More recently, renewed interest in the possibility of microbial life within Venus’ thick cloud layers has expanded that discussion to include Earth, Venus, and Mars. A recent study presented at…
Former Speaker of the House Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., dodged answering questions on the growing influence of the socialist movement after three candidates backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani dominated in primary elections. Mamdani’s political clout was on display Tuesday night after all three House candidates he endorsed — Darializa Avila Chevalier, Brad Lander and Claire Valdez — won their Democratic primaries in New York, beating out more moderate Democrats. Pelosi, a moderate Democrat herself, refused to answer Fox News Digital’s question on her reaction to these socialist candidates coming out as victorious. The 20-term California congresswoman…

(Eventually, she did.)Now Representative Hakeem Jeffries, the New York Democrat who succeeded Ms. Pelosi as party leader and is in line to be speaker if his…
