Loneliness is more common among older adults because they're often not in contact with people through routine activities like work. Isolation is associated with increased risk of heart disease, dementia, stroke, depression and premature death.

If you're like most people, you've probably stretched the truth at a doctor's appointment. That could look like lying about how much you drink each week, how much you exercise, your depression symptoms or your thoughts on taking a new medication. In fact, a University of Utah study found that anywhere from 60% to 80% of adults lie to their doctors about their lifestyle habits.

When that broken promise is 50 years old and the consequences are deep and far-reaching, we are talking about a whole different level of suffering.

Participants on the non-processed food regimen burned more fat, had lower systolic blood pressure, and lower levels of glycated hemoglobin compared to the processed one.

Where we live plays a much bigger role in our health than previously understood. As much as 80% to 90% of our health outcomes depend on external environmental factors in our wellness ecosystem.
