The stress of heart failure is remembered by the body and appears to lead to recurrent failure, along with other related health issues, according to new research. Researchers have found that heart failure leaves a 'stress memory' in the form of changes to the DNA modification of hematopoietic stem cells, which are involved in the production of blood and immune cells called macrophages.

In the US, over 45% of the population has either diabetes or pre-diabetes 1. The absolute majority of those with diabetes have type 2 diabetes, which is usually associated with excess visceral fat and poor cardiometabolic health. This is not good. Why? Because a diagnosis of diabetes is very likely to shorten your life. A diagnosis of type 2 diabetes at age 30 can result in a 14 to 16-year shorter lifespan 2.
