“A 2019 study in mice found that lifelong choline supplementation prevented Alzheimer's disease and preserved cognitive function. Researchers fed mice susceptible to developing Alzheimer's disease a regular diet or a diet supplemented with choline from early life to old age.”

“COVID-19 infection severely burdens the cardiovascular system, aggravating preexisting cardiovascular morbidities and triggering grave events, such as exacerbation of heart failure or acute coronary syndromes.”

“These findings suggest that sudden physical exertion and emotional upset increase the risk of acute MI. However, robust evidence demonstrates that regular physical activity is crucial for preventing cardiovascular disease, including acute MI, especially among inactive people.”

“Endurance exercise, such as long-distance running, swimming, and cycling, improves metabolism and reduces the risk of disease and death, especially from cardiovascular-related conditions.”

“Those receiving the combined treatment also experienced decreased cholesterol, triglycerides, and hsCRP (a marker of inflammation). However, the combined therapy did not reduce the residual risk of fatal and non-fatal stroke, coronary revascularization, and cardiovascular disease-related death.”

“Authors of a new report aimed to determine the dose-dependent effects of lean beef consumption as part of a Mediterranean dietary pattern on heart disease risk. Recent research suggests that lean, unprocessed red meat can be included in a heart-healthy dietary pattern.”

“The participants who consumed the highest amounts of ultra-processed foods were 58 percent more likely to die from cardiovascular disease, 52 percent more likely to die from ischemic heart disease or cerebrovascular disease, and 26 percent more likely to die from all causes of premature death.”

“Just 20 minutes of exercise daily reduces heart disease risk in older adults. The benefits of regular physical exercise on cardiovascular health are well established. However, most studies investigating the benefits of exercise have been conducted in younger adults rather than older ones, for whom cardiovascular disease risk is greatest.”

“The PET scans revealed that nearly 10 percent of the study participants had detectable brown fat. Those who had brown fat were less likely to have type 2 diabetes, abnormal lipid levels, coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, congestive heart failure, and hypertension.”
