A review of 13 research studies has revealed startling findings: Spending more than eight hours a day engaging in sedentary behavior without adequate physical activity increases the risk of heart disease by 60%. This risk surpasses that of obesity and even compares to the mortality risks associated with smoking. Sedentary behavior—commonplace in modern lifestyles—has become a silent epidemic with wide-ranging effects on physical and mental health.
Fatty liver disease, also known as MASLD (Metabolic Associated Steatosis and Liver Disease), is a condition that affects more than one in three people worldwide. Despite being so common, most people don’t even know they have it because it often doesn’t show symptoms until it gets worse. If untreated, fatty liver disease can lead to serious problems like inflammation, scarring (fibrosis), cirrhosis, or even liver failure. The good news? Catching it early and making some lifestyle changes can reverse the damage and improve your liver health.
Recent research from Florida State University has uncovered a groundbreaking link between gut health and cognitive decline. As we age, or after antibiotic use, the diversity of gut bacteria often diminishes. This allows harmful bacteria, such as Klebsiella pneumoniae, to thrive, potentially migrating to the brain and triggering inflammation. This phenomenon may accelerate memory loss and cognitive issues similar to those seen in aging brains.
