Obesity involves a chronic state of low-grade inflammation, which is linked to the development several comorbidities. Recently, very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) has gained great interest in treatment obesity, almost ousting ancient and healthy Mediterranean (MD). However, because these dietary regimens exploit different pathophysiological mechanisms, we hypothesize that adherence MD may play role determining efficacy VLCKD. We enrolled 318 women (age 38.84 ± 14.37 years; BMI 35.75 5.18 kg/m²) assessed their anthropometric parameters, body compositions, (with PREvención con DIetaMEDiterránea (PREDIMED) questionnaire) at baseline.

Abstract The Mediterranean Diet (MD) has garnered increasing attention for its potential protective effects against gastric cancer (GC). MD’s rich content of antioxidants, polyphenols, and other bioactive compounds contributes to ability modulate gene expression, inhibit tumor growth, regulate apoptosis. Studies have shown significant reductions in inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein (CRP), necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) among individuals adhering the MD, suggesting pivotal role mitigating chronic inflammation-associated with development. Furthermore, anti-angiogenic properties, particularly components like olive oil, red wine, fish, tomatoes, offer promising avenues reducing GC risk by inhibiting angiogenesis. Additionally, influence on intestinal microbiota composition underscores maintaining immune homeostasis systemic inflammation, factors crucial prevention. Despite challenges variability dietary adherence scoring systems need further gender geographical-specific studies, evidence supports MD a cost-effective holistic approach Emphasizing nutrition public health is strategy broad implications global prevention initiatives. Therefore, this review explores multifaceted impacts prevention, delving into anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenic, molecular mechanisms.
