Diet is one of the leading factors contributing to prevalence non-communicable diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders. Dietary polyphenols, antioxidant components and anti-inflammatory agents plant-based foods rich diets have been shown modulate neuro-inflammation, adult neurogenesis brain signaling, all which are linked cognitive function. As epidemiological evidence limited results contradictory, aim this study explore association between dietary flavonoid intake health among population living in Mediterranean area.The demographic habits 808 adults southern Italy were analyzed. Food frequency questionnaires (FFQs) used assess intake. Data on polyphenol content estimated using Phenol-Explorer database. The Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire was as a screening tool for status. Multivariate logistic regression analyses associations.A significant inverse higher total flavonoids (Q4 vs. Q1: OR = 0.39, 95% CI: 0.15, 1.00) impaired status found. Among individual subclasses flavonoids, flavan-3-ols (Q3 0.30, 0.11, 0.76), catechins 0.24, 0.08, 0.72), anthocyanins 0.38, 0.14, flavonols 0.76) associated with health. only quercetin 0.10, 0.91).The suggest that may be better individuals.

The prevalence of sleep disorders, characterized by issues with quality, timing, and duration is increasing globally. Among modifiable risk factors, diet quality has been suggested to influence features. Mediterranean considered a landmark dietary pattern in terms effects on human health. However, habits this cultural heritage should also be the context overall lifestyle behaviors, including habits. This study aimed systematically revise literature relating adherence features observational studies. systematic review comprised 23 reports describing relation between different features, duration, daytime sleepiness, insomnia symptoms. majority included studies were conducted basin reported significant association higher lower likelihood having poor inadequate excessive sleepiness or symptoms insomnia. Interestingly, additional outside showed relationship adoption Mediterranean-type suggesting that biological mechanisms sustaining such an may exist. In conclusion, current evidence suggests adhering parameters. plausible bidirectional further investigated understand whether promotion healthy could used as tool improve quality.

Background/Objectives: With the increasing life expectancy and, as a result, aging of global population, there has been rise in prevalence chronic conditions, which can significantly impact individuals’ health-related quality life, multidimensional concept that comprises an individual’s physical, mental, and social wellbeing. While balanced, nutrient-dense diet, such Mediterranean is widely recognized for its role disease prevention, particularly reducing risk cardiovascular diseases certain cancers, potential benefits extend beyond these well-known effects, showing promise improving physical mental wellbeing, promoting life. Methods: A systematic search scientific literature electronic databases (Pubmed/Medline) was performed to identify potentially eligible studies reporting on relation between adherence diet published up December 2024. Results: total 28 were included this review, comprising 13 conducted among general population 15 involving various types patients. Overall, most showed significant association HRQoL, with results retrieved domains suggesting seems play relevant both people affected by conditions inflammatory basis. Conclusions: Adherence provides preventing managing commonly associated populations. Furthermore, it enhances overall health individuals, ultimately supporting more effective less invasive treatment approaches diseases.

Milk contains several important nutrients that are beneficial for human health. This review considers the nutritional qualities of essential fatty acids (FAs), especially omega-3 (ω-3) and omega-6 (ω-6) polyunsaturated (PUFAs) present in milk from ruminant non-ruminant species. In particular, impact on metabolism is discussed, including its effects central nervous system. addition, we presented data indicating how animal feeding-the main way to modify fat composition-may have a potential health, rearing feeding systems strongly affect quality within same Finally, results vivo studies aimed at supporting FA intake models, factors limiting their transferability humans were discussed.

To determine the correlations between dietary and blood inflammation indices in elderly Americans their effects on cognitive function.This research extracted data from 2011-2014 National Health Nutrition Examination Survey for 2,479 patients who were ≥60 years old. Cognitive function was assessed as a composite score (Z-score) calculated results of Consortium to Establish Registry Alzheimer's Disease Word Learning Delayed Recall tests, Animal Fluency test, Digit Symbol Substitution Test. We used inflammatory index (DII) 28 food components represent profile. Blood indicators included white cell count (WBC), neutrophil (NE), lymphocyte (Lym), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte (PLR), neutrophil-albumin (NAR), systemic immune-inflammation [SII, (peripheral platelet count) × NE/Lym], response [SIRI, (monocyte NE/Lym]. WBC, NE, Lym, NLR, PLR, NAR, SII, SIRI, DII initially treated continuous variables. For logistic regression, SIRI divided into quartile groups, tertile groups.After adjusting covariates, scores markedly higher cognitively impaired group than normal (p < 0.05). negatively correlated with Z-score when combined NAR After all positively SII people impairment Higher increased risk 0.05).DII indicators, developing impairment.

In recent years, although life expectancy has increased significantly, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) continue to pose a significant threat the health of global population. Therefore, eating habits have been recognized as key modifiable factors that influence people’s and well-being. For this reason, it is interesting study dietary patterns, since human diet complex mixture macronutrients, micronutrients, bioactive compounds, can modulate multiple physiological processes, including immune function, metabolism, inflammation. To ensure data we acquired were current relevant, searched primary secondary sources, scientific journals, bibliographic indexes, databases in last 15 years with most relevant articles. After search, observed all research on NCDs suggests critical factor shaping an individual’s outcomes. Thus, cardiovascular, metabolic, mental, dental, visual depends largely intake, nutritional behaviors. A high processed refined foods, added sugars, saturated fats increase risk developing chronic diseases. On other hand, rich whole, nutrient-dense such vegetables, fruits, nuts, legumes, adherence Mediterranean improve health’s people.
