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.

Low Back Adjustment May Help Treat Common Knee Disorder.

Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is a condition characterized by anterior knee pain that can range from mild to severe and is often associated with abnormal contact or tracking of the posterior surface of the patella (kneecap) against the femur (thigh bone). In a study involving 30 individuals with PFPS, researchers found that spinal manipulative therapy applied to the lumbar spine twice weekly for four weeks was associated with improvements in knee pain and quadriceps strength. These findings suggest that spinal manipulation may play a supportive role in the management of PFPS.

Sleeping in on Weekends Can Be Okay.

While ideally adolescents and young adults would get adequate sleep during the week and wake at consistent times each day, this is not always the case. In a study of nearly 1,100 adolescents and young adults, those who routinely slept in on weekends to compensate for lost sleep had a 41% lower risk of daily depressive symptoms than their peers who experienced insufficient sleep but did not catch up on weekends.

Five Healthy Habits to Build in Young Adulthood.

To set the stage for better health later in life, experts from Stanford Medicine recommend adopting these five habits in your 20s and 30s: regular strength training to build peak bone and muscle mass; consistent cardiovascular activity with less sitting throughout the day; a diet centered on whole, minimally processed foods, such as those found in the Mediterranean pattern; adequate, high-quality sleep—generally more than seven hours per night; and proactive stress management through techniques like exercise, meditation, or breathing practices.

Reversing Prediabetes Dramatically Lowers Heart Death Risk.

Previous research has shown that elevated blood glucose levels can damage blood vessels over time, increasing the risk of heart disease even before diabetes is formally diagnosed. A recent study found that individuals with prediabetes who normalized their blood sugar levels reduced their long-term risk of heart-related death or heart failure hospitalization by up to 58%.

Active Kids and Teens Are Less Likely to Have Backaches.

Using data from the Health Behavior in School-aged Children study, researchers report that youths who engage in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity at least once a week have about an 11% lower likelihood of frequent backache compared with their inactive peers, and those who are physically active at least five times per week have about a 19% lower risk of frequent backache.
