Health Alert: Sleep Apnea May Raise the Risk of Fatal Stroke.
Cerebrovascular disease is a group of conditions that affect blood flow to the brain, increasing the risk of stroke, transient ischemic attack, and other forms of brain injury. A review of national mortality data found that deaths among adults diagnosed with both obstructive sleep apnea and cerebrovascular disease increased by an average of about 9% per year between 1999 and 2020.

Diet: Ultra-Processed Foods Make Up Half of Most Kids’ Daily Calorie Intake.
Ultra-processed foods are industrially formulated products that typically contain added sugars, fats, and salt to enhance flavor and extend shelf life. According to a recent review, ultra-processed foods now account for 50–60% of total daily energy intake among children and adolescents in many high-income countries, including the United States. A high intake of ultra-processed foods has been linked to an elevated risk of obesity, metabolic syndrome, early cardiovascular risk, dental caries, and allergic diseases.

Exercise: Sedentary Activities May Raise GERD Risk.
An analysis of data concerning nearly 400,000 adults revealed that each additional hour of daily leisure-time sitting was associated with a 4% higher risk of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), suggesting that reducing sedentary time may help support digestive health.

Chiropractic: Restoring Hip Movement May Help Relieve Chronic Low Back Pain.
In a study of 36 patients undergoing treatment for chronic low back pain, researchers found that improvements in hip mobility were associated with reductions in lower back pain. The findings highlight the close relationship between the hips and lower back, suggesting that evaluating movement throughout the kinetic chain may help identify factors contributing to persistent low back pain.

Mental Attitude: Consistent Weekday Sleep May Help Reduce Anxiety in Teenagers.

🚶‍♂️ TIGHT HIPS? YOUR LOW BACK & KNEES MAY BE PAYING THE PRICE.

Many active adults over 40 think the problem is their back or knees... when the real issue may begin with tight hips.

Signs your hips may be limiting you:

✅ Low back stiffness after sitting
✅ Knee discomfort when walking or climbing stairs
✅ Difficulty squatting or bending over
✅ Reduced flexibility during golf or pickleball
✅ Feeling "tight" when getting out of bed or the car

Why it matters:

• Tight hip muscles change the way your body moves.
• This places extra stress on your low back and knees.
• Over time, poor movement patterns can reduce performance and increase wear on your joints.

The good news:

✔ Improve hip mobility
✔ Restore proper joint movement
✔ Strengthen the right muscles
✔ Move more efficiently

You don't have to stop doing what you love—you may simply need to move better.

📍 Inlet Crossing Chiropractic specializes in helping active adults improve movement, stay active, and enjoy life with greater comfort.

📞 Call today to schedule your evaluation and discover what's really causing your movement limitations.

Move Better. Play Better.

Health Alert: Poor Metabolic Health Linked to Heart Rhythm Disorder.
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions—including central obesity, high blood pressure, abnormal cholesterol levels, and elevated blood sugar—that increase the risk of poor health outcomes. According to a recent review, individuals with metabolic syndrome face a 1.5- to 2-fold greater risk of developing atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm that can increase the risk of stroke, heart failure, and other cardiovascular complications. The authors suggest that chronic inflammation, changes in the heart's structure, and dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system associated with metabolic syndrome may help explain this association.

Diet: Healthy Eating May Protect Cancer Survivors' Hearts.
Cancer survivors face an increased risk of cardiovascular disease due to factors related to both cancer and its treatment. A study involving 10,414 cancer survivors found that those with the healthiest dietary patterns—including Mediterranean-style and DASH diets—had up to a 24% lower risk of developing cardiovascular disease during the 13-year follow-up period.

Exercise: Is Higher Physical Activity Linked to Diabetic Neuropathy Symptoms?
Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is a type of nerve damage that can cause numbness, tingling, pain, or weakness, most often in the feet and legs. A study of 463 adults with diabetes found that those experiencing high levels of physical activity were more than twice as likely to report neuropathy symptoms than those with low activity levels. Because physical activity remains an important part of diabetes management, additional research is needed to determine whether certain forms or intensities of exercise may increase neuropathy symptoms in some individuals.

Chiropractic: Chiropractic Adjustments May Help Failed Back Surgery Patients.
Persistent spinal pain syndrome type 2, also known as failed back surgery syndrome, is a chronic pain condition that can occur after spinal surgery despite technically successful procedures. A systematic review and meta-analysis of 100 studies found that spinal manipulative therapy—the primary treatment provided by chiropractors—was among the rehabilitative approaches associated with significant improvements in functional outcomes over a twelve-month period.

Mental Attitude: Non-Drug Approaches May Enhance Depression Care.
A systematic review of 31 studies found that exercise and bright light therapy may be useful additions to standard depression treatments, particularly for individuals who experience an incomplete response to medication or psychotherapy.

Wellness/Prevention: Being Metabolically Healthy May Not Eliminate Weight-Related Stroke Risk.
Using data from the Northern Sweden Health and Disease Study, researchers report that stroke risk was 14% higher among overweight individuals and 36% higher among those with obesity, even after accounting for metabolic risk factors such as high blood pressure, elevated blood sugar, and unhealthy cholesterol levels. These findings suggest that excess body weight may affect stroke risk through pathways beyond traditional metabolic markers.
