Moderate calorie restriction, as observed in the CALERIE trial, led to changes in gene expression in human muscle cells, suggesting improved muscle health. The study, led by Dr. Luigi Ferrucci, found over 1,000 genes expressed differently between calorie-restricted and non-calorie restricted participants, impacting pathways related to muscle formation, repair, and aging. These findings highlight the potential of moderate calorie restriction in preserving muscle function during aging.

The shadow of a figure dancing on a beach with the sunset behindMusic therapy for pain relief is a burgeoning field, demonstrating remarkable efficacy in alleviating discomfort and enhancing well-being. Recent research delves into the nuanced relationship between music and pain management, shedding light on its potential as a non-pharmacological intervention.

In a study published in Frontiers in Pain Research, emotional responses to both relaxing and favorite music emerged as pivotal predictors of hypoalgesia. This highlights the power of individual musical preferences in influencing pain perception. Subject-preferred music, especially tracks that hold personal significance, showed a superior effect in reducing pain intensity and unpleasantness.

The study involved 63 healthy participants, aged 21.3 on average, who underwent painful thermal stimuli on the inner forearm surface. Participants selected two favorite songs, chosen for their deep personal resonance, along with relaxing music provided by a company. The experiment paired thermal stimulations with music excerpts, assessing pain intensity, emotional responses, and overall music pleasantness.

Results revealed that favorite music significantly reduced both the intensity and unpleasantness of pain compared to scrambled music and silence. This underscores the potential of music therapy as a complementary approach to pain management. Moreover, the incidence of chills, often experienced during emotionally resonant music, played a crucial role in mediating pain perception.

These findings illuminate the multifaceted impact of music therapy on pain relief. Understanding the interplay between subjective musical experiences and pain perception opens new avenues for harnessing the therapeutic potential of music in healthcare settings.
