| 2025 health news worth highlighting
|
| ☕ 1 cup of coffee a day may lower AFib recurrence risk by 39%
|
| “This year, it has become more obvious than ever that our audience has an insatiable appetite for nutrition content, particularly the kind that offers expert insight into how our dietary habits influence our longevity and health span.
|
| “Stories on the potential benefits of coffee, such as this one, covering a study recently published in JAMA, have been of huge interest not simply because they tell us what we want to hear — that a beverage many of us have integrated into our daily routine is actually good for our health — but because they have a surprise element to them.
|
| “For decades now, traditional wisdom has held that caffeine is bad for us, particularly for heart health. Now, clinical trials are overwhelmingly contradicting those long-held beliefs, which goes to show just how important it is to keep asking questions and rely on scientific rigour for the answers.” — Maria Cohut, News editor
