““The reason that we want to help spread the word is two-fold,” said Amy Miller.
“People are interested in coming here to work in health care. Obviously, we’re so grateful to be here. But I want the community here to know that it’s working and to continue with that momentum. And I want to let people in the States know that this is an option, that it’s a real option.”

Global health impacts of plastics systems set to double by 2040 #health

Global health impacts of plastics systems set to double by 2040
The adverse health impacts associated with emissions across the full life cycle of plastics could double by 2040 unless immediate action is taken, new research suggests. The study identified health harms at every stage of the life cycle of the plastics we use: from the extraction of fossil fuels, the feedstocks for more than 90% of plastics, and material production to their eventual disposal or release to the environment.

"There are several reasons for the lack of vacation time in the USA. One of the big reasons is the broken #healthcare system. Health care costs are so huge, that the per hour costs of health care are very high.

Belly fat linked to heart failure risk even in people with normal weight #health

Belly fat linked to heart failure risk even in people with normal weight
Carrying extra fat around the waist may be more dangerous than the number on the scale suggests. Researchers found that belly fat was more strongly linked to heart failure risk than BMI, even in people with normal weight. Inflammation seems to play a key role, helping explain why this type of fat is especially harmful. Measuring waist size could offer a simple way to detect hidden risk earlier.

Fathers’ tobacco use linked to metabolic changes in their children #health

Fathers’ tobacco use linked to metabolic changes in their children
A new study in mice suggests that a father’s nicotine exposure could influence the metabolic health of his children. Researchers found that when male mice consumed nicotine, their offspring showed changes in how their bodies handled sugar, including differences in insulin and glucose levels and altered liver function. These shifts may be linked to a higher risk of diabetes and related metabolic diseases.

Microplastics may be quietly damaging your brain and fueling Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s
Tiny plastic particles may be quietly threatening brain health. New research suggests microplastics—now widely found in food, water, and even household dust—could trigger inflammation and damage in the brain through multiple biological pathways. Scientists estimate adults may consume about 250 grams of these particles each year, and some can accumulate in organs including the brain.

Rising carbon dioxide levels now detected in human blood
Rising carbon dioxide levels are being detected within the human body, with new research warning a key blood marker for the gas could near its healthy limit within decades if current trends continue. The findings are especially relevant for children and adolescents, whose developing bodies will experience the longest cumulative exposure to rising atmospheric CO₂.

the best non-medical feature about West Coast General Hospital is definitely the atrium/waiting room.
Nice natural light. Running water. Naturally planted foliage. Calming, quiet and comfortable even though all around the edges it is go go go.
I am waiting for Tree to finish her MRI. It is a mobile unit that attends WCGH for three weeks, then goes to other hospitals for 7 weeks i think, on a rotation. It is not fancy. you have to go outside to access it which really sucks in the cold and rain.
But it is there and makes a big difference.

This simple habit could help seniors live longer and stay independent
Cycling might be one of the simplest ways for older adults to stay healthier, longer. A 10-year study in Japan found that seniors who rode bicycles had lower risks of needing long-term care and dying—especially those who didn’t drive. Continuing or even starting cycling later in life still delivered noticeable benefits. The results highlight biking as a surprisingly powerful tool for maintaining independence and well-being.

Insomnia and sleep apnea together dramatically raise heart disease risk #health

Insomnia and sleep apnea together dramatically raise heart disease risk
Struggling to fall asleep and stopping breathing at night may be a far riskier combo than previously thought. In a study of nearly a million veterans, researchers found that having both insomnia and sleep apnea dramatically raises the risk of hypertension and heart disease. The two conditions don’t just coexist—they interact in ways that intensify strain on the heart. Addressing sleep problems early could help prevent cardiovascular disease before it starts.

Long-term alcohol use linked to a sharp rise in rectal cancer #health

Long-term alcohol use linked to a sharp rise in rectal cancer
Drinking heavily over many years is linked to a higher risk of colorectal cancer, especially rectal cancer, according to new research tracking U.S. adults for two decades. People who drank heavily throughout adulthood faced sharply higher risks than light drinkers. Former drinkers did not show increased cancer risk and had fewer precancerous tumors. The results suggest that quitting alcohol may help lower long-term cancer risk.
