Background: Obesity remains a global epidemic with over 2.8 million people dying due to complications of being overweight or obese every year. The low-carbohydrate and high-fat ketogenic diet has rising popularity for its rapid weight loss potential. However, most studies have maximal 2-year follow-up, therefore long-term adverse events remain unclear including the risk Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD). Results: Based on current evidence PubMed Google Scholar, there is no strong indication advantageous loss, lipid profile, mortality. When comparing hypocaloric low-fat diet, may be faster until 6 months, however, this then appears equivalent. Ketogenic diets shown inconsistent Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) changes; perhaps from different saturated fat intake, dietary adherence, genetics. Case reports 2-4-fold elevation in LDL Familial hypercholesterolaemic patients which mostly reversed upon discontinuation. There also concern about possible increased ASCVD mortality: low (< 40%) carbohydrate intake been associated mortality, high fats, animal product consumption can increase trimethylamine N-oxide, cardioprotective foods are likely minimally ingested. Conclusion: short-term positive effects larger reductions. by 2 years significant differences cardiometabolic markers. Therefore, raises question, excluding those who critical need lose fast, worth potentially higher risks mortality while further awaited?

The gut microbiome is a heterogeneous population of microbes comprising viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. Such essential for sustaining host equilibrium, its impact on human health can be altered by variety factors such as external variables, social behavior, age, nutrition, genetics. Gut microbes’ imbalances are related to chronic diseases including cancer, obesity, digestive disorders. Globally, recent findings show that intestinal have significant role in the formation cardiovascular disease (CVD), which still primary cause fatalities. Atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, inflammation, some inherited variables all risk variables. However, studies found correlations between metabolism, flora, dietary intake. Variations diversity changes their activity thought influence CVD etiology. Furthermore, microbiota acts an endocrine organ, producing bioactive metabolites TMA (trimethylamine)/TMAO (trimethylamine N-oxide), SCFA (short-chain fatty acids), bile acids, substantial wellness multiple mechanisms. purpose this overview compile current evidence highlighting intricate links microbiota, metabolites, development CVD. It focuses how dysbiosis promotes heart failure, atherosclerosis. This review explores normal physiology potential techniques targeting bacteria treatment using various microbial metabolites. also examines significance treatment, supplements, prebiotics, probiotics, antibiotic therapies, fecal transplantation, innovative approach management As result, metabolic pathways become increasingly attractive targets intervention.

Inflammation is a physiological condition characterized by complex interplay between different cells handled metabolites and specific inflammatory-related molecules. In some pathological situations, inflammation persists underlying worsening the state. Over years, two membrane transporters namely OCTN1 (SLC22A4) OCTN2 (SLC22A5) have been shown to play roles in inflammation. These form OCTN subfamily within larger SLC22 family. The link these proteins has proposed based on their chronic inflammatory diseases such as asthma, Crohn’s disease (CD), rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Over a decade ago, longitudinal multiomics analysis was pioneered for early disease detection and individually tailored precision health interventions. However, high sample processing costs, expansive measurements along with complex data have made this approach to precision/personalized medicine impractical.

Maternal obesity and/or Western diet (WD) is associated with an increased risk of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in offspring, driven, part, by the dysregulation early life microbiome. Here, using a mouse model WD-induced maternal obesity, we demonstrate that exposure to disordered microbiome from WD-fed dams suppressed circulating levels endogenous ligands aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR; indole, indole-3-acetate) and TMAO (a product AHR-mediated transcription), as well hepatic expression Il10 (an AHR target), offspring at 3 weeks age.
