• Best Foods to Help You Live a Longer, Healthier Life, According to Research (healthline.com) — A Fountain Valley-based bariatric surgeon at Orange Coast Medical Center is highlighting how anti-inflammatory, whole-food diets and even moderate coffee intake can support longer, healthier lives. The piece explains how Mediterranean-style eating, rich in plants and healthy fats, may reduce disease risk, while warning that red meat, sugary drinks, and ultra-processed foods can shorten life expectancy.
