A major, long-term study published in JAMA found that moderate daily consumption of caffeinated coffee or tea is associated with a lower risk of dementia and slower cognitive decline. The greatest benefits were observed at 2-3 cups of caffeinated coffee or 1-2 cups of tea per day, with no added protection from higher consumption. Decaffeinated […]

The moderation trap: “Balanced” eating advice may be fueling a stress epidemic
New research reveals that moderate, regular consumption of ultra-processed foods is most strongly linked to chronically high cortisol levels. This creates a harmful biological trap, making the common “everything in moderation” advice ineffective and potentially harmful for metabolic health. Consuming ultra-processed foods then triggers inflammation, which further stimulates cortisol production. This self-reinforcing loop disrupts hormonal […]

A pinch of reality: Landmark heart failure study upends century-old salt doctrine
A major international trial found that while reducing sodium improves patients’ daily symptoms and quality of life, it does not reduce hospitalizations, emergency visits or mortality. Led by Dr. Justin Ezekowitz, it randomly assigned over 800 heart failure patients across six countries to either receive standard care or intensive counseling to limit sodium to 1,500 […]

The protein illusion: New study finds human cells struggle to absorb nutrients from plant-based meat
A new study challenges the protein equivalence of plant-based meats, finding that the human body may not absorb protein from a plant-based meat analog as effectively as it does from chicken. The research used a simulated digestion model and found that peptides (digested protein) from the plant-based product were less water-soluble and larger, making them […]

How ancient wisdom and modern science can conquer the bloat epidemic
Modern medicine is reframing persistent bloating as critical feedback from the body, indicating deeper imbalances in the gut microbiome, diet or stress levels, rather than a minor inconvenience. The shift from whole, fiber-rich foods to diets high in processed foods, refined sugars and artificial additives has disrupted the gut microbiome, leading to excessive gas production […]

A plate of prevention: Major study finds Mediterranean diet cuts women’s stroke risk by nearly one-fifth
A 21-year study of over 100,000 women found that those who most closely followed a Mediterranean-style diet had an 18% lower overall risk of stroke, including a 16% lower risk of ischemic stroke and a 25% lower risk of hemorrhagic stroke. The protective diet emphasizes whole, plant-based foods (vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts, whole grains), fish […]

For conditions like hypertension, daily choices regarding diet, exercise and stress management can significantly improve health, often reducing or eliminating the need for medication and can even reverse severe heart disease. The goal is not necessarily to abandon medication but to use lifestyle modifications to create a healthier foundation, allowing for lower doses. Medication acts […]

Beyond the bowl: A heart-health revolution starts at breakfast
Breakfast is a critical opportunity for heart disease prevention, shifting from a focus on high-fat, processed foods to a strategy emphasizing whole grains, fruits, vegetables, lean proteins and healthy fats. Landmark research established the life-saving power of dietary fiber, finding that high fiber intake (e.g., an extra 10 grams daily) can reduce heart attack risk […]

How modern diets are failing our skeletons
Peak bone mass is reached in early adulthood, after which gradual loss begins. Diet plays a decisive role in building strong bones early and slowing loss later, impacting long-term mobility and independence. A holistic approach is needed, including magnesium, vitamin K, protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which all work together to build and maintain skeletal […]

The preservative paradox: Examining benzoic acid’s role in food, health and history
Benzoic acid and its salt, sodium benzoate, are widely used synthetic preservatives effective at inhibiting mold and yeast in acidic processed foods, beverages and personal care products. Classified as “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS) by the FDA at low levels, its long-term safety is debated due to concerns about chronic, low-level exposure and potential synergistic […]
