Ultra-Processed Foods Linked to Higher Mortality Risk in Cancer Survivors.

Among 802 cancer survivors, researchers found that individuals with the highest intake of ultra-processed foods—industrially formulated products often high in added sugars, fats, and salt—had a 48% higher risk of mortality over the following 15 years compared with those consuming fewer processed foods. This association persisted even after adjusting for overall diet quality. The findings suggest that factors associated with industrial food processing, such as inflammation and metabolic disruption, may independently contribute to poorer long-term outcomes.

Poor Fitness and Sleep Nearly Double Heart Risks in Seniors.

Using data from the UK Biobank study, researchers found that a low daily step count (fewer than 7,500 steps) combined with sleeping fewer than 6.5 hours per night at age 62 was associated with an 84% higher risk of major adverse cardiovascular events—such as heart attack or stroke—during the following eight years.

Secondhand Smoke Increases Cardiometabolic Risks.

Using data from the STEPS survey, researchers found that regular exposure to secondhand smoke at home or work is associated with higher risk of several cardiometabolic conditions, including high blood pressure (13%), metabolic syndrome (12%), high cholesterol (18%), and diabetes (16%). Exposure in both settings—at home and at work—nearly doubles the risk for these conditions.

Regular Exercise Can Protect the Body from Chronic Stress.

Allostatic load refers to the cumulative physiological wear and tear on the body from chronic stress, typically measured using a combination of biomarkers—such as blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, inflammatory markers, and stress hormones—that reflect strain across multiple body systems. In a study that tracked more than 3,300 adults from age 31 to 46, researchers found that those who seldom or never exercised had higher allostatic load than participants who frequently met physical activity guidelines, suggesting regular exercise may help protect the body from the harmful effects of chronic stress.

Lumbar Disk Herniation Management.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of 43 studies found that conservative treatments such as therapeutic exercise, manipulative therapy, and spinal traction—interventions often used in combination by chiropractors—are effective for improving pain and disability in patients with lumbar disk herniation.
