Rising Cancer Rates Among Younger Adults: The Role of Diet and Lifestyle

The notion that cancer is predominantly a disease of old age is evolving. Recent analyses indicate that in the G20 group of industrialised nations, cancer rates are increasing more rapidly among younger populations compared to older ones. This trend has been confirmed by scientists at the American Cancer Society (ACS), who found that younger generations, particularly Gen X and Millennials, are more likely to develop certain types of cancer than Baby Boomers[1]. Half of the 34 types of cancer studied...

Preventing Autoimmune Diseases: New Findings on Vitamin D, Omega-3 Supplements

In a recent comprehensive analysis, researchers have revisited the outcomes of the VITAL trial, a randomised study initially focused on the effects of vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acid (n-3 FA) supplementation on incident cancer and cardiovascular disease. This investigation, spearheaded by Karen H. Costenbader, MD, MPH, from Brigham & Women's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, and her team, delved into the extended impacts of these supplements on autoimmune disease risk. The VITAL trial had included...

Vitamin C and some of its remarkable benefits

Vitamin C (or L-ascorbic acid, hereafter referred to as VitC) is a nutrient with a six-carbon structure, synthesised from glucose, abundant in fruits, vegetables and the kidney and liver of most animals. VitC is a potent water-soluble antioxidant that is produced in most mammals but is not endogenously synthesised in humans, who lack enzymes for its synthesis.[1] Hence we need to consume it to avoid deficiency-related diseases. Many animals can synthesise their own vitamin C. The researchers Axel...
