Most people think of COVID-19 as a lung disease. That’s a big part of the story. But now, as the pandemic stretches on, it’s clear there is another danger to worry about.
Many doctors assumed that once people recovered from COVID, they could carry on with their lives normally.
Two new studies show this may not be true. The disease may leave patients with lasting heart damage.
Your cellphone is a potential source of a coronavirus infection.
And there has been evidence for years that cellphone radiation raises the risk of brain cancer.
Now, a new study published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology Letters shows that your phone may damage your health in another way.[1]
Researchers found that halogenated flame retardants in the plastic parts of TVs can migrate into the air and into dust particles.
You may already feel the connection…
When you feel nervous, angry, excited, sad, or other emotions, it affects not only your brain. You may also feel it in your stomach.
Now, a major new review confirms the gut-brain connection. And it shows that when you add to the good bacteria in your intestines by taking probiotics, you may also boost your mood.
If there was any doubt before, there should be none now…
Chocolate is good for your heart.
Past studies have shown that chocolate lowers bad cholesterol and prevents atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat.
And now, new research provides perhaps the strongest evidence yet that eating chocolate improves cardiovascular health.
The massive study followed 336,289 people for nine years. It found that eating chocolate more than once a week led to an 8% lower risk of heart disease.
America is heading toward a diabetes disaster.
Nearly 90 million people in the U.S. have prediabetes. Don’t let the “pre” fool you.
Prediabetes is a serious condition. It means that your blood sugar levels are elevated and heading toward full-blown diabetes and all the health problems that it entails…nerve damage, kidney disease, vision loss, heart disease, strokes, and more.[1]
Along with all those issues, diabetics often die early.
If you can avoid heart disease and cancer, chances are you will enjoy longevity.
That’s because these illnesses are by far the biggest killers in the U.S. Just over 43% of Americans die from heart disease or cancer. They take more lives than all other medical conditions combined.[1]
The ways to prevent heart disease are well known: Keep your weight, blood pressure, and bad cholesterol under control.
