One of the first questions that comes up is whether food can genuinely protect the heart. Among all eating patterns studied over the past few decades, one continues to rise above the rest:…

It often starts quietly. Someone might notice they’re more tired than usual, or that their clothes fit differently even though nothing in their routine has changed.
