New study links ultra-processed foods to rising colon cancer risk among young adults
Ultra-processed items include boxed soups, frozen meals and products with long shelf lives — foods many Americans grew up eating in the 1970s, 80s and 90s.

☕ Good news for coffee lovers: A daily cup of joe reduces atrial fibrillation (A-Fib) by almost 40%, a UCSF study finds. Doctors usually recommend people with heart issues avoid caffeine, but the findings suggest coffee is not only safe but likely even helps. https://ucsfh.org/49kLQUA
Drink Up: Coffee Is Safe for People with A-Fib
A study found that drinking at least a cup of caffeinated coffee daily significantly lowered the risk of atrial fibrillation, a common heart condition.
