Key result
Healthy lifestyle habits modulate gene expression via epigenetic pathways to lower chronic disease risk.
Why the study?
Unhealthy eating habits characterized by excessive fat, sugar, salt, and lack of fiber are major causes of chronic diseases and reduced lifespan in contemporary society.
Does a nutritious diet and healthy lifestyle improve health and lifespan compared to unhealthy eating habits?

May signal rising cardiometabolic risks amid Vietnam's food surplus; leaves open targeted dietary policies for CVD prevention.
Following the green revolutions, the industrial revolution, and the fourth industrial wave, the quantity of food, goods, and products that serve human life has reached unprecedented levels. Advancements in agriculture productivity, production, and processing technologies, as well as smart supply chain control, have contributed to the "surplus crisis" of food in most countries, including Vietnam. The majority of the world's population consumes diets with excessive levels of fat, sugar, salt, and a lack of fiber. These unhealthy eating habits are known to be the main causes of chronic diseases, acting as silent killers of the health and lifespan of contemporary human society. Fortunately, a new trend of nutritious diets rich in fiber, positive thinking habits, exercise, and a harmonious lifestyle has been discovered as a "reform pill" for humans. This article presents a synthesis and update of relevant research achievements, with the ambition to positively adjust unscientific eating habits and change negative thinking and behavior to improve the health and lifespan of human society.

Le et al. (2023) conducted a review in Chronic diseases. Dietary behavior and lifestyle was evaluated. Unhealthy dietary behaviors and physical inactivity increase the risk of chronic diseases through epigenetic mechanisms, whereas a fiber-rich diet and regular exercise promote health by modulating gene expression.
