  • Are Processed Plant-Based Foods Bad for Your Heart? Here's What Research Says

    Are Processed Plant-Based Foods Bad for Your Heart? Here's What Research Says
    Feb 3 2026
    • Not all plant-based foods support heart health — ultraprocessed items may actually increase cardiovascular risk despite their "vegan" label
    • A large French cohort study of over 63,000 adults found an approximately 40% reduction in cardiovascular disease risk when participants ate minimally processed, nutrient-rich plant foods
    • There was also a 38% increase in overall cardiovascular disease risk when diets were dominated by ultraprocessed, low-quality plant-based foods, even if they appeared "healthy"
    • Key red flags include: high sodium in vegan meats and deli slices, seed oils that damage mitochondrial function, refined starches/sugars, and gut-disrupting additives like methylcellulose and gums
    • The most protective plant-based diets are built from whole foods with minimal processing, like legumes, vegetables, fruits, and whole grains

  • Playing or Enjoying Music May Help Protect Against Dementia

    Playing or Enjoying Music May Help Protect Against Dementia
    Feb 3 2026
    • A study of over 10,800 Australians age 70 and older found that people who always listened to music had a 39% lower risk of dementia, while those who often played an instrument had about a 35% lower risk
    • Those who engaged in both listening and playing music had a 33% lower risk of dementia and a 22% lower risk of cognitive impairment
    • Music activates multiple brain regions at once, including those tied to memory, movement, and emotion, making it especially useful for supporting recovery and preserving connections in dementia care
    • Enjoying music at an appropriate volume encourages regular listening, helping you incorporate joyful routines into your daily life
    • Joining a choir or playing an instrument also builds focus, coordination, and social connection. These factors may help keep your brain strong as you age

  • Relearning Basic Movements Eases Chronic Lower Back Pain

    Relearning Basic Movements Eases Chronic Lower Back Pain
    Feb 3 2026
    • Relearning basic movements like rolling, crawling, and squatting restores smoother coordination and reduces the fear-driven stiffness that worsens chronic low back pain
    • A 12-week movement retraining program improved balance, daily function, and confidence by teaching participants how to move without triggering pain
    • A structured walking routine nearly doubled the time people stayed pain-free after a flare, giving them longer stretches of normal movement and fewer recurrences
    • Breaking up long sitting periods by even 40 minutes a day kept pain from worsening, showing that small increases in daily movement meaningfully change back pain trajectories
    • Combining movement retraining, steady walking, less sitting, and mindful daily habits offers a practical, accessible strategy for easing chronic low back pain and preventing flare-ups
