A study has shown that environmental metal pollution is linked to enhanced calcium accumulation in coronary arteries, a condition that rivals traditional risk factors like diabetes and smoking in its impact. This makes metal exposure a critical risk factor for developing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease.To view the original scientific study click below:

The risk of dementia may be influenced long before symptoms appear. New research suggests that avoiding three key midlife risks could help extend the number of years people live without dementia. Those free of all three risk factors experienced roughly 13 additional dementia-free years compared with people affected by all three.
While it’s well known that processed foods can harm health, a new study reveals the problem runs deeper than just excess calories, refined carbs, or unhealthy fats.

A slower walking pace is a common part of aging, but the reason may be more complex than previously thought. New findings suggest that older adults unconsciously prioritize staying upright and stable, even if it requires more effort and energy. Â Although this shift may help maintain balance, researchers found that it can also lead to slower walking speeds, greater fatigue, and a heightened susceptibility to falls.
