Blood Pressure Uncontrolled in 4 Out of 5 Hypertensive Americans.

New research suggests that 79% of adults in the United States with hypertension do not have it under control, elevating their risk for heart attack, stroke, kidney disease, and dementia. However, for many of these individuals, their blood pressure readings are only slightly above target levels, suggesting that achieving normal readings is achievable with appropriate lifestyle changes.

Ultra-Processed Foods Linked to Higher Mortality Risk in Cancer Survivors.

Among 802 cancer survivors, researchers found that individuals with the highest intake of ultra-processed foods—industrially formulated products often high in added sugars, fats, and salt—had a 48% higher risk of mortality over the following 15 years compared with those consuming fewer processed foods. This association persisted even after adjusting for overall diet quality. The findings suggest that factors associated with industrial food processing, such as inflammation and metabolic disruption, may independently contribute to poorer long-term outcomes.

Secondhand Smoke Increases Cardiometabolic Risks.

Using data from the STEPS survey, researchers found that regular exposure to secondhand smoke at home or work is associated with higher risk of several cardiometabolic conditions, including high blood pressure (13%), metabolic syndrome (12%), high cholesterol (18%), and diabetes (16%). Exposure in both settings—at home and at work—nearly doubles the risk for these conditions.
