“Brewing method also tracked with long-term outcomes in a Norwegian cohort of 508,747 adults followed for about 20 years. Filtered coffee drinkers had lower mortality than people who drank no coffee, while unfiltered coffee was associated with less favorable outcomes than filtered coffee.”

“This 2023 review describes evidence suggesting that APOE4, a gene associated with a higher risk of Alzheimer's disease later in life, confers resistance to gut infections in children – a robust contributor to high childhood mortality.”

“Since the invention of the omega-3 index, a host of research continues to emerge showing the importance of omega-3 status in risks ranging from cardiac-associated death to all-cause mortality to dementia and covid-19 severity.”

“Large treadmill cohorts associate higher measured fitness with lower mortality, while a 46-year study of middle-aged men linked the highest fitness category with about 4.9 additional estimated life-years compared with the lowest category.”

“Imaging studies also associate higher visceral fat with increased cancer incidence in some populations, while large cohort analyses link greater waist circumference with higher all-cause mortality.”

“Other observational research in women has associated healthier dietary patterns with modestly lower acceleration on PhenoAge and GrimAge, while large prospective studies associate greater fruit and vegetable intake with lower cardiovascular and all-cause mortality.”

“Dose and retesting must account for baseline status and clinical context. A large randomized trial found that daily vitamin D supplementation did not reduce invasive cancer, major cardiovascular events, or all-cause mortality in generally healthy older adults.”

“The evidence spans prevention, treatment tolerance, physical function, and survivorship. A meta-analysis of prospective studies in breast and colorectal cancer survivors associated higher post-diagnosis physical activity with lower total and cancer-specific mortality.”

“The findings add to the growing evidence that overall body composition -- and not the widely used body mass index, or BMI -- is a better predictor of all-cause mortality. "In other words, the greater your muscle mass, the lower your risk of death," said the study's co-author.”

“FTA: > Drinking tea reduces non-cardiovascular mortality by 24 percent, reveals a study in 131,000 people. "Tea has antioxidants which may provide survival benefits. Tea drinkers also have healthier lifestyles so does tea drinking reflect a particular person profile or is it tea, per se, that improves outcomes -- for me that remains an open question.”
