Blood Pressure Uncontrolled in 4 Out of 5 Hypertensive Americans.

New research suggests that 79% of adults in the United States with hypertension do not have it under control, elevating their risk for heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, and dementia. However, for many of these individuals, their blood pressure readings are only slightly above target levels, suggesting that achieving normal readings is achievable with appropriate lifestyle changes.

Regular Exercise Protects Heart Health.

Using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, researchers found that adults who met physical activity guidelines—at least 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous exercise per week—had a 22% lower risk of cardiovascular disease. Those who exercised at least 300 minutes per week experienced a 30% lower risk.

Treatment for Cervicogenic Headaches.

Cervicogenic headaches are secondary headaches that originate from dysfunction in the cervical spine or neck structures. An umbrella review that identified 31 systematic reviews and one clinical practice guideline concluded that spinal manipulative therapy—commonly used by chiropractors—is an effective non-pharmacological intervention for managing cervicogenic headaches.

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.
