Pulicaria incisa Infusion Modulates the Gut Microbiota and Improves Locomotor Activity and Exploratory Behavior in Aging Mice

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
‐Pi infusion significantly improved locomotor activity and exploratory behavior in aging mice; its bioactive compounds may have direct effects on behavior, which may be accompanied by a putative indirect effect involving the gut microbiota. ‐Pi infusion consumption restored commensal Bacilli levels and caused a significant decrease in Clostridia levels

Obesity and Natural Products: Mechanisms, Therapeutic Potential, and Future Directions

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Natural products such as EGCG, berberine, curcumin, and capsaicin modulate key metabolic pathways including AMPK activation, adipogenesis inhibition, and inflammatory signaling. While clinical trials demonstrate modest benefits on body weight and metabolic parameters, translational challenges related to bioavailability, dose feasibility, and regulatory
