Hey there! I have some exciting health news to share with you. First off, the STAT Summit in Boston is just around the corner, and there are still tickets available. The lineup of speakers looks incredible, and it’s a great opportunity to network and gain valuable insights. If you can’t make it in person, there’s also a 50% discount for the virtual pass, so you can still be part of this amazing event.

Now, let’s talk about the unexpected role of vitamin D in cardiometabolic health. New research suggests that vitamin D supplements may have a positive impact on blood pressure, cholesterol, and insulin levels. This is great news, especially for older adults, as vitamin D levels tend to decrease with age. However, it’s important to approach supplementation cautiously and consult with a healthcare professional to determine the right dosage for you.

In other health news, there’s a groundbreaking case study showing that stem-cell therapy could reverse type 1 diabetes, as well as interesting discussions about body roundness as an indicator of heart disease risk and the impact of ultra-processed foods on health.

It’s always important to stay informed about the latest developments in health, and I’m thrilled to share these updates with you. Remember to take care of yourself and stay healthy!

Take care,

Summy

Stay Well!
