Memory Boost, AI in Colonoscopies, and Surprising Salt Uses

Boost Your Memory at Bedtime
A new study from the University of Bristol suggests that jotting down just five events from your day before bed can significantly enhance memory performance. The technique benefits not only healthy adults but also individuals with Alzheimer's disease. Researchers found those who practiced daily journaling performed better on memory tasks overall.
AI Enhances Colonoscopy Precision
At Fred Hutch Cancer Center, artificial intelligence is lending a hand in colon cancer screenings. A new tool called GI Genius analyzes continuous video footage during colonoscopies to highlight even the smallest details. This technology helps doctors spot polyps that might otherwise be missed, improving early detection and outcomes.
Salt: More Than Just a Seasoning
Salt does more than add flavor to food—it’s a handy home remedy. A saltwater rinse can ease the pain of canker sores and sore throats, while soaking feet in warm salt water can help relieve ingrown toenails. Just follow up with antibiotic ointment and a bandage for best results.
