For migraine patients with concurrent neck pain, a recent study found that a treatment approach combining manual therapy, exercise, education, and lifestyle strategies—commonly used by chiropractors—may help reduce migraine intensity, frequency, and disability. The findings suggest that migraineurs who do not respond to usual care or self-management strategies may benefit from a more comprehensive, multimodal approach.

Low Zinc Levels May Increase One-Year Mortality Risk in Dementia Patients.

Zinc helps the brain work properly by supporting communication between brain cells and playing a role in memory, learning, and overall mental function.

Future studies will evaluate whether zinc supplementation can improve outcomes in dementia patients with low zinc levels.
