Should Fiber Be Listed as an Essential Nutrient?

Nutritionists from University of Otago argue that fiber should be listed as an essential nutrient citing extensive evidence that adequate intake benefits body weight, cholesterol, blood sugar, and blood pressure, and lowers long-term risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, colorectal cancer, and premature death. This designation would elevate fiber’s importance in dietary guidelines and public health policy, encouraging greater intake to support long-term health and disease prevention.

Nearly Half of American Adults Projected to Be Obese by 2035:

If current trends continue, it is estimated that 47% of adults in the United States—about 126 million people—will be obese by 2036, a five–percentage point increase from 2022. Experts warn that without population-wide interventions to reverse course, the nation will likely experience age-adjusted increases in heart disease, diabetes, certain cancers, and premature death.

Walking Reduces Fatigue in Colon Cancer Patients:

Among more than 1,700 patients with colon cancer, researchers observed that those who began regular walking within a year of diagnosis experienced meaningful reductions in fatigue over the following two years. These findings add to a growing body of evidence supporting physical activity as an important component of cancer care.

Chiropractic Patients Less Likely to Experience Longterm Opioid Use.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of two randomized clinical trials and 18 cohort studies found that patients receiving chiropractic care for spinal pain were 73% less likely to become long-term opioid users, and the likelihood of later opioid prescription was even lower among those who initiated chiropractic treatment within 30 days of spinal pain onset.

The Nutrition–Pain Connection:

Pain is not just structural, it’s also chemical and neurological. Poor nutrition can increase inflammatory chemicals in the body, making pain signals stronger and more persistent.

When patients combine chiropractic care with better nutrition, many notice:

• Less joint and muscle soreness
• Faster recovery from injury or workouts
• Improved flexibility and mobility
• More consistent energy levels

Rather than masking pain, this approach supports the body’s ability to heal and regulate itself.

Grandparenting Linked to Better Brain Health.

According to recent research, older adults who help care for their grandchildren—even on a limited basis—tend to score higher on memory and language tests than peers who are not involved in their grandchildren’s lives. The findings suggest that staying socially and mentally engaged through grandparenting may help support brain health as we age.

Unprocessed Carbs Linked to Lower Dementia Risk:

Using data from the UK Biobank study, researchers report that a diet rich in fruits, legumes, and whole grains was associated with a 16% lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease, whereas a high intake of ultra-processed carbohydrates was linked to a 14% higher risk of the neurodegenerative condition. These findings suggest that diets emphasizing slower-digesting carbohydrates that minimize blood glucose spikes may help support brain health and reduce dementia risk as part of broader healthy aging strategies.

Heart-Healthy Lifestyle Really Does Reduce Heart Attack Risk:

The American Heart Association’s Life’s Essential 8 is a set of health-related behaviors and clinical measures—including not smoking, achieving adequate sleep duration, maintaining a healthy weight, eating a nutritious diet, engaging in regular physical activity, and having healthy levels of blood glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure—that are associated with a reduced risk of cardiovascular disease. Using data from the UK Biobank, researchers found that individuals who met all eight metrics did indeed have a substantially lower risk of heart attack, and among those who did experience myocardial infarction, the event occurred later in life compared with individuals with fewer optimal metrics.
