Health Alert: Risk Factors for Chronic Post-Concussion Headaches. Headaches are common in patients
recovering from traumatic brain injury (TBI), with most resolving within three months. However, 1 in 4 such
individuals will continue to experience headaches for a year or longer. An analysis of data from the
Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic Brain Injury study identified the
following predictors for recurrent headaches in TBI patients: younger age, severe TBI symptoms, fatigue, neck
pain, and vision problems. Journal of Headache and Pain, March 2024
Diet: Probiotics In Kombucha Mimic Fasting, Reduce Fat Stores. An animal study conducted at the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill found that microbes in kombucha tea can alter gene expression
related to fat metabolism in worms in a manner similar to intermittent fasting. Future research is needed to
determine if these benefits extend to humans. PLOS One, April 2024
Exercise: Active Lifestyle May Protect Against Pain Linked to Prolonged Sitting at a Desk. An analysis
from a long-term study that included more than 2,000 German workers found that the risk for musculoskeletal
pain in employees who spend most of their workday sitting is 30-46% greater among those who rarely, if ever,
engage in leisure time physical activity. Journal of Occupational Medicine and Toxicology, March 2024
Chiropractic: Chiropractic Helps Radicular Low Back Pain Patients Avoid Opioids. Among a group of
more than 2,300 patients with new-onset radicular low back pain, those who initially sought treatment from a
doctor of chiropractic were 68% less likely to receive a subsequent prescription for tramadol, a less potent
opioid, in the following year than patients who first received usual medical care. BMJ Open, May 2024
Mental Attitude: Mood Disorders May Affect Teen Driving Privileges. According to a recent study,
adolescents with anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder are 30% less likely than their peers to obtain a driver’s
license. Additionally, teenagers with mood disorders are more likely to be involved in motor vehicle collisions
and to lose their license. JAMA Network Open, April 2024
Wellness/Prevention: Blood Test Shows Promise in Early Detection of Pancreatic Cancer. Due to nonspecific
symptoms, pancreatic cancer is often only diagnosed at advanced stages when a good outcome is less
likely. Researchers have developed a blood test that looks for small RNA particles and larger DNA fragments
linked to early-stage pancreatic cancer with a 97% accuracy. Once approved, it’s hoped this blood test can serve
as a non-invasive tool for early pancreatic cancer detection.

Health Alert: Cardiac Comorbidities Can Worsen Knee Replacement Outcomes. Among a sample of more
than 380,000 patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA), researchers observed that those with preexisting
cardiac comorbidities (such as congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, valvular dysfunction,
and arrhythmia) have an elevated risk for adverse outcomes including a longer hospital stay, heart attack, acute
kidney injury, transfusion, thromboembolic events, and infection. The authors conclude, “As our use of TKA
rises, a lower threshold for preoperative cardiology referral in older individuals and early preoperative
counseling/intervention in those with known cardiac disease may be necessary to reduce adverse outcomes.”
Clinics in Orthopedic Surgery, April 2024
Diet: Vitamin C May Benefit Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients. Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory
disorder that usually affects the small joints in the hands and feet. A recent animal study found that a vitamin C
supplement given to mice with rheumatoid arthritis stimulated changes in the gut microbiota that led to a
reduction in several inflammatory biomarkers. The findings suggest that vitamin C has a role in the
management of rheumatoid arthritis. Bioscience Trends, April 2024
Exercise: Just an Extra 1,500 Steps a Day… For patients at elevated risk for heart disease, a recent study
found that increasing one’s daily step count by 1,500 steps can reduce the risk for cardiovascular disease-related
death by 10%. Circulation, April 2024
Chiropractic: Treating Frozen Shoulder. Adhesive capsulitis, also known as frozen shoulder, is described as
a painful restriction of the shoulder’s range of motion. Among a group of 20 adhesive capsulitis patients, those
who received a multimodal treatment plan that included specific exercises, heat therapy, and manual
therapies—an approach that patients may encounter in a chiropractic setting—reported significant
improvements with respect to pain, function, and range of motion. Cureus, January 2024
Mental Attitude: Spending Time in Nature Benefits Kids’ Mental Health. Researchers from the Frank
Porter Graham Child Development Institute at the University of North Carolina report that the more green space
(parks, trails, and other nature settings) within .75 miles of a young child’s home, the less likely they’ll
experience symptoms of a mood disorder by age five. JAMA Network Open, April 2024
Wellness/Prevention: Even Small Vision Issues Lead to Worse Grades. To underscore the importance of

Health Alert: Gene Discovery May Offer New Avenue to Combat Alzheimer’s. In a recent study that
included individuals at elevated risk for Alzheimer’s disease, researchers observed that those who did not
develop the neurodegenerative condition carried a gene variant that helps the brain more efficiently remove the
beta amyloid plaques from the brain that are a hallmark of the disease. If scientists are able to develop a therapy
that mimics the gene’s effect in the brain, it’s hoped that Alzheimer’s cases may be reduced by up to 70%.
Columbia University, April 2024
Diet: Intermittent Fasting Benefits Intestinal Health. Intermittent fasting is a dietary strategy that alternates
between periods of eating and fasting, typically within a structured time frame each day or week. A recent
animal study found that intermittent fasting is associated with reduced inflammation and improved glucose
control in the small intestine, which suggests this dietary practice may improve intestinal health.
American Physiology Summit, April 2024
Exercise: Sedentary Behaviors Raises COPD Risk. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a
chronic lung disease that makes breathing difficult, and it is a leading cause of death in the United States. An
analysis of data from several long-term studies found that for every 2.8 hours an individual averages per day
watching television, their risk for COPD doubles. BMJ Open Respiratory Research, April 2024
Chiropractic: Manual Therapy’s Impact on Ankle Dorsiflexion. For individuals with reduced ankle
dorsiflexion following a lower limb injury, a recent study found that ankle joint mobilization and calf muscle
massage are effective interventions for improving ankle range of motion. Doctors of chiropractic are trained in
the use of these and other therapies in the management of musculoskeletal disorders of the extremities,
including the ankle and foot. Journal of Bodyworks and Movement Therapies, January 2024
Mental Attitude: Long Commute and Musculoskeletal Pain Linked to Burnout. Questionnaire completed

Health Alert: Don’t Use Tap Water for Nasal Rinse. Individuals with sinusitis and allergic rhinitis often find
relief using a nasal rinse—like a neti pot. However, officials from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
remind users to use sterile water and avoid using tap water. The primary reason is that tap water may contain
microbes like the amoeba Acanthamoeba that can lead to a severe and potentially deadly infection.
Emerging Infectious Diseases, March 2024
Diet: Nutrition Education Benefits Adolescents. A recent literature review found that not only do nutrition
education interventions help teens make healthier food choices, but they may also experience an improved selfimage. Frontiers in Nutrition, March 2024
Exercise: Physical Activity Reduces Atrial Fibrillation Risk in Type 2 Diabetics. Past research has shown that
type 2 diabetics are at elevated risk for developing atrial fibrillation, a heart rhythm disorder that can lead to stroke,
heart failure, and other cardiovascular complications. In a recent study, researchers observed that diabetics who
engaged in at least 214 minutes a week of moderate-intensity physical activity a week had a lower incidence of atrial
fibrillation than less active diabetes patients. Cardiovascular Diabetology, March 2024
Chiropractic: Chiropractic Care for Trigeminal Neuralgia. This case study involved a 55-year-old female with
trigeminal neuralgia that failed to respond to conventional treatment. A chiropractic examination revealed joint
dysfunction at several levels of the cervical and thoracic spine, as well as trigger points in the trapezius and levator
scapulae muscles. The patient underwent a multimodal treatment plan that included spinal manipulative therapy,
mechanical cervical traction, and focused radial shockwave therapy that led to a significant reduction in her
symptoms that maintained at a six-month follow-up appointment. The authors conclude, “The lasting nature of the
pain reduction provides a compelling argument for the long-term benefits of chiropractic intervention in the
management of [trigeminal neuralgia].” Cureus, February 2024
Mental Attitude: Depression Linked to Increased Heart Risks in Women. University of Tokyo researchers
analyzed data concerning 4.2 million adults and found among women, depression is associated with an elevated risk

Health Alert: Early-Life Tobacco Exposure May Set Stage for Type 2 Diabetes. New research suggests that
individuals exposed to secondhand smoke during gestation or early life have up to a 22% elevated risk for type 2
diabetes in adulthood, while those who start smoking during adolescence may be up to 57% more likely to develop
type 2 diabetes. American Heart Association, March 2024
Diet: Healthy Diet May Keep Muscles Strong. An analysis of dietary questionnaire data collected from 528
middle-aged and older adults revealed an association between greater adherence to a healthy eating pattern, such as
the Mediterranean diet, and both a stronger grip and greater muscle mass in the arms and legs. The findings suggest
that consuming a healthy diet may preserve muscle mass in aging adults. European Journal of Nutrition, April 2024
Exercise: Carrot or Stick? In a recent study, researchers observed that a system offering small rewards for meeting
physical activity recommendations and small penalties for non-compliance resulted in more significant
improvements in exercise behavior than a reward-only or penalty-only system. Leiden University, February 2024
Chiropractic: Conservative Treatment for Tennis Elbow. For patients with lateral elbow tendinopathy, a
systematic review that included twelve studies found that a conservative treatment plan that includes manual therapy,
electrotherapy, and exercise may provide greater long-term benefits and a lower risk of recurrence than
corticosteroid injections. Doctors of chiropractic often manage patients with tennis elbow using such a multimodal
approach. Shoulder Elbow, March 2024
Mental Attitude: Establish a Cognitive Baseline. Experts from Northwestern Medicine recommend individuals
begin undergoing cognitive assessments at midlife to both establish a baseline and to measure their thinking and
memory skills over time. Neuropsychologist Dr. Sandra Weintraub notes, “All of us go to the doctor every year, and
we know our blood pressure and heart rate, our sugar levels and bone density… But at no time are we ever told what
our baseline cognitive functioning is. Because we know aging can bring potential problems with your thinking
abilities, it is very important to know how a person is functioning even in their 50s or 60s. That way when those agerelated changes start to occur, we have a baseline to know if you have changed or not.”
Northwestern University, February 2024
Wellness/Prevention: Greenspace Access and Dementia. Using data from the Healthy Brain Project, researchers
observed that greater access to green spaces is associated with a reduced risk for dementia for residents of
socioeconomically disadvantaged neighborhoods. The findings suggest that measures to make parks and natural
spaces easier to access could reduce the incidence of dementia in less affluent areas.

Health Alert: Shortage of Primary Care Providers Leading to More Emergency Surgeries. Primary care
providers (PCP) are essential for identifying health issues early on when they’re easier to manage. However, in areas
with a PCP shortage, individuals are more likely to seek care for health issues once they’ve progressed to the point
of requiring emergency treatment, which may lead to worse outcomes, including complications. The findings
highlight the need for greater access to healthcare services for individuals in underserved areas.
Health Affairs, March 2024
Diet: Healthy Diet Can Aid in Stress Management. The Mediterranean diet is an eating pattern focused on fruit,
vegetables, nuts, fish, olive oil, and whole grains while avoiding red and processed meats, dairy, saturated fats, and
refined sugars. A study that looked at data from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study found that greater
adherence to the Mediterranean diet pattern is associated with greater resilience to stress among middle-aged and
older adults. Nutrition Research and Practice, April 2024
Exercise: Yoga Provides Unique Cognitive Benefits for Women at Risk for Alzheimer’s. According to a recent
study, older women at risk for Alzheimer’s disease who participated in a yoga intervention experienced greater
improvements with respect to subjective memory complaints, brain connectivity, and anti-inflammatory gene
expression than women who performed memory training exercises. Translational Psychiatry, February 2024
Chiropractic: Treatment for Mechanical Neck Pain. Mechanical neck pain is a term used to describe neck pain
that results from the application of stress or strain on the anatomical structures of the neck. A recent study that
included 78 mechanical neck pain patients found that a treatment plan that included a combination of manual
therapies and therapeutic exercises—an approach commonly used by chiropractors—provided significant
improvements with respect to pain, disability, and function. Physical Therapy, March 2024
Mental Attitude: After-School Activities Can Harm Teen Mental Health. While parents are often advised to
encourage their teenagers to participate in afterschool sports and other activities to bolster their college resume and
facilitate healthy social growth, a recent study found that overloading a teen’s schedule can have detrimental effects
on their mental health and academic performance. Economics of Education Review, March 2024
Wellness/Prevention: Green Spaces Lower Osteoporosis Risk. Using data from the UK Biobank study,
researchers report that residents of neighborhoods with more greenery may have a 5% lower risk for osteoporosis.
The researchers speculate this may be due to the effect greenspaces can have on reducing air pollution, which can
benefit bone health, as well as an increase in physical activity that previous studies have associated with greater
access to parks and natural spaces. Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, March 2024

Health Alert: Oral Bacteria Linked to Accelerated Colon Tumor Growth. Researchers from the Fred
Hutchinson Cancer Center report that when swallowed, a subtype of the common oral bacteria Fusobacterium
nucleatum, called Fna C2, can accelerate tumor growth in the colon and may contribute to up to 50% of colon cancer
cases. It’s hoped this discovery will help scientists craft more effective treatments for colon cancer.
Nature, March 2024
Diet: Unhealthy Diet Before Surgery May Impair Memory. Ohio State University researchers report that rats fed
a diet high in unhealthy fats in the time leading up to surgical procedure experienced increased inflammation in the
brain that hindered their memory during recovery. On the other hand, rats given a supplement of omega-3 fatty acids
did not experience any post-surgical cognitive impairment. Brain, Behavior, and Immunity, February 2024
Exercise: Exercise Boosts Beneficial Hormone in Breast Milk. Adiponectin is a metabolic hormone that helps
regulate glucose levels and fatty acid breakdown. In a recent study, researchers observed that new mothers who
engaged in vigorous exercise experienced an increase in adiponectin in their breast milk that can benefit the
metabolism of their offspring, potentially reducing the risk for childhood obesity.
Frontiers in Nutrition, December 2023
Chiropractic: Two Manual Therapies That May Benefit Patients with Knee Pain. When trigger points affect the
function of the gluteus medius muscle, it can lead to altered gait, reduced hip stability, misalignment of the patella,
and increased force on the knee, all of which can contribute to patellofemoral pain syndrome. A recent study found
that for patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome associated with gluteus medius trigger points, positional release
technique and myofascial release technique–two manual therapies that may be provided by doctors of chiropractic—
are effective treatments for improving pain, function, strength, pressure pain threshold, and quality of life when
combined with exercise therapy. Journal of Pakistan Medical Association, February 2024

to progress to hypertension than participants in an aerobic exercise group. JAMA Network Open, February 2024
Chiropractic: Neck Pain Affects Walking Ability. Examinations of 14 older adults with chronic neck pain
and 36 seniors without neck pain revealed that when walking with head movement, chronic neck pain is
associated with a slower, more laborious, and asymmetrical gait. The authors of the study speculate this
alteration in walking ability may be the result of structural instability and proprioception impairments in the
cervical spine. Doctors of chiropractic often address chronic neck pain and its associated symptoms with a
multimodal approach that includes manual therapies and specific exercises.
Frontiers in Medicine, February 2024
Mental Attitude: Childhood Bullying Can Result in Long-Term Mental Health Issues. In a recent study
that monitored nearly 10,000 boys and girls from age 11 until 17 found that those subjected to bullying at age

Diet: What Are “Naked” Carbs? Individuals looking to make healthier food choices may be confused by the
term naked carbs. In essence, naked carbs are added sugars found in sugary drinks and pre-packaged snacks that
cause a rapid spike in blood sugar levels when consumed. On the other hand, dressed carbs are those found in
whole foods accompanied by vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber that are absorbed more slowly into the body
without a corresponding spike in blood sugar levels. The Conversation, March 2024
Exercise: Exercise Helps Concussion Recovery. For children and teens who sustain a mild-traumatic brain
injury, new research suggests that engaging in at least 40 minutes of total moderate-to-vigorous exercise a day
