The most common chronic liver disease worldwide, metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects approximately 30% to 40% of the general adult population, including approximately 60% to 70% of individuals with type 2 and approximately 70% to 80% of those with .

The presence of MASLD is associated with increased morbidity and mortality due to liver-related complications, hepatocellular carcinoma, cardiovascular disease, and certain extrahepatic cancers.

This Review summarizes the pathogenesis, epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of MASLD.

Cut out processed foods for a few weeks, and you’ll be amazed how good healthy foods can taste.
When switching to a low-salt diet, for example, everything might taste like cardboard at first.

But research shows that over the next several weeks, taste buds adapt.

✅ Participants started preferring the taste of salt-free soup over salty versions.
✅ They added less salt themselves the longer they stayed on a low-salt diet.
✅ By the end of the study, soup tasted just as salty to them—even with half the amount of salt.

If you've ever been on a sodium-restricted diet, you know how salted foods can start tasting too salty. You just naturally start favoring less salty food.

A similar thing can happen with fat, too.
➔ The less fat we eat, the more sensitive to fat our taste buds appear to become, which may lead to spontaneous reductions in butter, meat, dairy, and eggs.

Salt may override this effect, so it may be helpful to cut down on fat and salt simultaneously.

There is a brain component to this, too.
➔ People who regularly eat ice cream (which contains sugar and fat) have a dulled dopamine response when drinking a milkshake. Once we’ve dulled our dopamine response, we may then overeat in an effort to achieve the degree of satisfaction previously experienced.
➔ In contrast, diets rich in whole plant foods don’t lead to a deadened dopamine response––even with the same number of calories. So, they help us achieve natural satisfaction without overeating.

The longer we eat healthier, whole foods, the better they taste. Don’t believe us? Go ahead and put it to the test!

People in the blue zones live active lives where they’re nudged to get up and walk or move around about every 20 minutes. They walk to their neighbors’ houses, through the fields, or up rocky mountain paths. They do housework and chores by hand, not automated robot vacuums. Research has validated that moving like the people in the blue zones can not only improve your physical health but also boost your productivity, mood, and creativity.

Spending 20 to 30 minutes walking outside can lower stress by 20% and just 10 minutes can deliver serious mood-boosting benefits. There’s also a study out of Stanford University that suggests walking can increase creative thinking. Participants were able to produce 50% more ideas while walking vs. while sitting. Another reason to start a Walking Moai at work—walking meetings can help you brainstorm!

Safety Specialist Ashely Carr at Sunsweet Growers, part of the Blue Zones Project Yuba-Sutter Worksite program shares, “A lot of our groups, especially our leads, supervisors, and managers, actually get out and connect on their walks, which allows them to talk about life, family and have that community aspect while they’re getting their steps in, walking, and challenging each other…having a moment to step away from our day-to-day tasks.”

Paano maiwasan ang kidney disease?
Hindi lang ito tungkol sa pag-inom ng tubig. Maraming Pinoy ang nagkakaroon ng sakit sa bato dahil sa kombinasyon ng sobrang alat, uncontrolled high blood at diabetes, at ‘yung ugaling tiisin lang ang sintomas hanggang lumala.

Ang totoo, tahimik ang kidney disease sa simula — wala masyadong nararamdaman. Pero kapag lumabas na ang manas, bula sa ihi, o madilim na ihi, madalas medyo huli na.

Kung may risk factors ka (high BP, diabetes, family history), regular check-up ang pinakamahalagang hakbang. Kidneys mo ‘yan — hindi napapalitan, kaya mas mabuting maagapan kaysa magpagamot sa huli.

Aerobic exercise alone won’t guard against age-related muscle loss. Peter Landless shows why resistance training improves insulin sensitivity, reduces visceral fat, and lowers mortality risk—independent of walking. Two strength sessions a week can change your future.
