Emerging Studies Highlight Exercise’s Expanded Role in Cardiovascular, Metabolic and Mental Health

A surge of exercise science studies is redefining how movement can combat disease and boost health.

Singapore’s NUS team found that brief, low-energy magnetic field exposure during development enhances poultry muscle quality and reshapes the gut microbiome, suggesting new metabolic and food-production applications.

Researchers spotlight Zone 2 cardio (60–70% max heart rate) as the sweet spot for fat oxidation, mitochondrial health and disease risk reduction.

A large meta-analysis in the British Journal of Sports Medicine shows 150 minutes of weekly moderate exercise outperforms common antidepressants in easing depression.

These findings underscore a growing consensus: tailored, evidence-based exercise interventions are potent, non-invasive tools for preventing and treating cardiovascular, metabolic and mental health conditions.

Soy Lecithin Lowers Cholesterol as Tesco Promotes Five-a-Day Push

New Evidence on Cholesterol and Produce Intake

A recent double-blind trial in Brazil found that a daily 500 mg soy lecithin capsule reduced total cholesterol by more than 40% and LDL by up to 56% within two months in adults aged 58–70 with hypercholesterolemia. These findings suggest soy lecithin could serve as a low-risk adjunct to dietary and pharmaceutical interventions, pending larger trials.

Meanwhile in the UK, Tesco has rolled out an enhanced “Five-a-Day” campaign to help families boost fruit and vegetable consumption. By gamifying purchases through Clubcard stamps, adding new in-store offers and free fruit checkouts for kids, Tesco aims to address data showing fewer than 1 in 10 children and 1 in 5 adults meet recommended intake levels.
