- Do you ever leave your smartphone at home? New research, published in PNA Nexus, which blocked participants’ mobile internet access for 2 weeks, found it improved participant’s mental health and wellbeing. The primary reasons for this were because people did different things such as spending more time socialising in person, exercising, and being in nature. A reminder to us all that 24/7 connection isn’t actually a good thing and we need to take time to disconnect from tech and reconnect with the world and people around us.

- How much meat can we eat without harming the planet? That’s the question posed by a group of Danish researchers in their new modelling study published in Alimentation naturelle. The sustainability researchers from the Technical University of Denmark deduced that each adult should not consume more than 255 grams per week of pork or chicken or two small chicken breasts. Red meat – beef and lamb – were considered off the table entirely. The study concluded that fish and seafood, dairy and eggs were acceptable forms of animal protein, but recommended that our protein needs should be met mainly met by grains, legumes and nuts—without voicing what the negative health consequences might be, including insufficient net protein intake, incomplete amino acid profiles, microbiome disruption, sensitivities to various plant compounds such as lectins, FODMAPs, oxalates, tannins, and saponins.

- Alzheimer’s researchers have been reluctant to move away from the accepted paradigm of Alzheimer’s development. However, the tide is turning as focus shifts to a relatively new theory that the development of Alzheimer’s is actually due to immune system dysfunction triggering an autoimmune reaction against amyloid-Beta and tau proteins, thought to be protective to the brain
- Un nouvel article publié dans Alzheimer’s and Dementia: The Journal of the Alzheimer’s Association describes the development of a ‘vaccine’ designed to target tau proteins in the brain. Strong immune responses against the tau tangles have been seen in mice and non-human primates driving researchers to move towards human clinical trials. Time will tell whether the treatment will be successful or harmful.

- Consumer concerns around the health risks associated with ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are growing, as evidenced by a recent journal article in Food Science and Technology. As concerns grow, calls for stricter regulations around such products also increase, not to mention the ramping up of campaigns to convince consumers of their health benefits and dismiss the use of the NOVA classification system, commonly used to define UPFs
- In a new report, UK-based think tank, Nesta, says the case for additional regulations, based on UPF based classification of foods is weak due the continued confusion over what constitutes a UPF, limited understanding of how UPFs harm health and that they’re unlikely to make significant changes to the consumption of UPFs. Isn’t that a bit like saying: go on kiddos, keep on eating those UPFs and hope you get healthier?!
- Such dismissal of the health harms of UPFs is brought into sharp relief by a new meta-analysis published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine. The review, which looked at data from 8 countries, found that for each 10% increase in UPF consumption the risk of early death also increased by just under 3%
- Rates of “extreme” obesity in the US have jumped exponentially in the past 20 years. A new study published in The Lancet: Diabetes & Endocrinology, found people with a BMI of 60 kg/m2 increased by 210% – approx. 200 pounds above a healthy weight. The findings raise urgent red flags about the cost of ignoring the impact of poor nutrition in favour of a pharmaceutical-based model of healthcare
- Many UPFs contain non-nutritive sweeteners, which come with their own particular health impacts and long-term risks. New research, due to be presented at this year’s American Physiology Summit, finds that regular consumption of the sugar substitute, erythritol, may increase the risk of heart attacks and stroke due to a reduction in nitric oxide production by cells, which leads to increased oxidative stress
- Relying on UPFs often results in a reduction in the consumption of wholefoods, particularly vegetables and fruit, with consequent negative effects on gut health and increased of chronic disease, including cancer. Rates of colorectal cancer in people under the age of 55 are rising at an alarming rate. Now research, published in Nature, reveals that changes to the gut microbiome in childhood could be laying the groundwork for the development of bowel cancers later in life.

- Exposure to radiation from cell phones causes cancer in animals, according to a systematic review commissioned by the World Health Organization (WHO) and published in Environmental International. The review concludes there is “high certainty” evidence that radiofrequency-electromagnetic (RF-EMF) fields from cellphones and other wireless devices is linked to increased risk of gliomas in the brain and malignant schwannomas (peripheral nerve sheath tumours) in the heart, this animal evidence being in line with with limited evidence in humans highlighted by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) Working Group..
- According to the Washington Post, the US Health and Human Services, under the direction of Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, has said that all new vaccines will need to undergo clinical testing against an inert placebo before they can be put forward for approval in a move that underpins the new health secretary’s commitment to transparency around the way vaccines are tested and approved
- No-till agricultural practices are being promoted by global chemical companies as a sustainable and regenerative way to grow food. A claim that is firmly rebutted by a new report from Friends of the Earth (FOE). The report shows heavy dependence on agrochemicals to manage weeds in no-till systems, as global conglomerates seek to greenwash food production practices. Sarah Starman, Senior Campaigner of Food & Agriculture at FOE says major food companies need to transition to true regenerative agricultural practices that protect soil and human health.

- A large, invisible population known as the “missing healthy” are maintaining vibrant wellness through the use of natural health options. But they are being ignored by mainstream medical systems, research and media because they challenge the foundations of today’s pharma-based ‘healthcare’ systems, which continues to demonise natural health options such as supplements to support health and wellbeing.
