The Lancet Public Health, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 8(11), P. e899 - e904

Published: Sept. 20, 2023

The WHO Global Oral Health Status Report, published in 2022, highlighted the alarming state of oral health worldwide and called for urgent action by integrating into non-communicable diseases (NCDs) universal coverage initiatives. 3·5 billion people have diseases, surpassing all other NCDs combined. detrimental role sugars as a risk factor has also been well documented. Despite evidence, are not part current NCD framing, which focuses on five factors (ie, 5 × 5). remain sidelined, disproportionately affecting poor disadvantaged populations. In this Viewpoint, we advocate integration approach towards prevention control NCDs. An expanded 6 framework would recognise growing evidence reiterate need to strengthen action, resource allocation, policy development We present rationale for, benefits of, an detail recommendations guide efforts improved priority, investment, equitable outcomes NCDs, including health.

Beyond Plants: The Ultra-Processing of Global Diets Is Harming the Health of People, Places, and Planet

Global food systems are a central issue for personal and planetary health in the Anthropocene. One aspect of major concern is dramatic global spread ultra-processed convenience foods last 75 years, which linked with rising human burden disease growing sustainability environmental challenges. However, there also calls to radically transform systems, from animal plant-derived protein sources, may have unintended consequences. Commercial entities moved toward this "great plant transition" vigor. Whether motivated by profit or genuine concern, effort has facilitated emergence novel "plant-based" commercial products devoid nutrients fiber, sometimes inclusive high sugar, industrial fats, synthetic additives. These other ingredients combined into often assumed be healthy lower calorie content. available evidence indicates that many these can potentially compromise at all scales-of people, places, planet. In viewpoint, we summarize reflect on discussions presented Nova Network meeting "Future Food", had particular focus encroachment supply, including plant-sourced alternatives (and collective therein) finding their way fast-food chains.

This more nuanced discourse considers complexities refocuses priorities value towards mutualistic solutions, co-benefits individuals, local communities, ecology.

Physicochemical Properties of Yanggaeng with Added Tempeh Powder

Preventive Nutrition and Food Science, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 28(4), P. 514 - 519

Published: Dec. 27, 2023

In this study, we investigated the physicochemical and antioxidative properties of traditional Korean confectionery, Yanggaeng, when various amounts tempeh powder (TP) were added.We replaced a portion white bean paste in Yanggaeng with TP at percentages 0% (CON), 2% (TP2), 4% (TP4), 6% (TP6) by total weight.The proximate composition results showed that TP6 exhibited highest crude ash protein contents, but its moisture content carbohydrate lowest compared to CON.Tempeh addition altered colorimetric increasing L* value, b* browning index; however, did not alter a* value.The also gradually decreased pH Yanggaeng.The Brix value was TP2; TP4 TP6, decreased, these formulations lower values than CON.Furthermore, induced capacities, as evidenced 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical scavenging activities.The study demonstrate alters capacity.

The prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is likely to be approaching 38% the world's population. It predicted become worse and main cause morbidity mortality due hepatic pathologies. particularly worrying that NAFLD increasingly diagnosed in children closely related, among other conditions, insulin resistance metabolic syndrome. Against this background concern awareness patients with low; one study, almost 96% adult USA were not aware their disease. Thus, studies on therapeutic tools used treat are extremely important. One promising treatment a well-formulated ketogenic diet (KD). aim paper present review available publications current state knowledge effect KD NAFLD.

Low-no-calorie sweeteners exert marked compound-specific impact on the human gut microbiota ex vivo

International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 74(5), P. 630 - 644

Published: July 4, 2023

Low-no-calorie sweeteners (LNCS) are used as sugar substitutes part of strategies to reduce the risk chronic diseases related high intake (e.g. type 2 diabetes (T2D)). This study investigated how a range [tagatose (TA)/maltitol (MA)/sorbitol (SO)/stevia (ST)/sucralose (SU)/acesulfame K (ACK)] impact gut microbiota T2D subjects and healthy human adults using ex vivo SIFR® technology (n = 12). The cohort covered clinically relevant interpersonal T2D-related differences. ACK/SU remained intact while not impacting microbial composition metabolite production. In contrast, TA/SO ST/MA were respectively readily gradually fermented. ST particularly TA/SO/MA increased bacterial density SCFA production product-specifically: SO acetate (∼Bifidobacterium adolescentis), whilst MA/ST propionate (∼Parabacteroides distasonis). TA exerted low specificity it butyrate for subjects, yet subjects. Overall, LNCS highly compound-specific effects stressing that results obtained one cannot be generalised other LNCS.

Sağlık, biyolojik ve genetik faktörlerin yanı sıra sosyal, ekonomik çevresel faktörlerden de etkilenmektedir. Bir ülkenin, sağlık sonuçlarını iyileştirmesi geliştirmesi için sağlığı etkileyen sosyoekonomik yapının, sağlığın sosyal belirleyicilerini belirlemeli geliştirmelidir. Bu çalışmada amaç, OECD ülkeleri arasında temsil eden göstergelerin ülkelerin sonuçlarına etkisini yıllar içinde incelemektir. Çalışmada, 2000-2020 yılları arası verisi mevcut olan sonuçlarından doğumda beklenen yaşam süresi (DBYS) bebek ölüm hızının (BÖH), çevre, fiziksel davranışı hizmetleri faktörlerinden, gayri safi yurtiçi hâsıla (GSYİH), işgücüne katılım oranı (İKO), işsizlik (İŞZ), yüksek-öğretimli nüfus (YÖN), nitrojen oksit (NOX), sülfür (SOX), PM2.5’e maruz kalma (PM25), alkol tüketimi (Alkol), günlük sigara (GünSig), şeker alımı (Şeker), yağ (Yağ), doktor sayısı (DrSay), hastane yatak (HasYatSay), toplam harcamaları (TSH), istihdam (TSveSI) çocuk aşılama oranı/kızamık (CocukAO) ile ilişkisi incelenmiştir. Çalışmada yöntem olarak panel regresyon analizi uygulanmış veri seti üyesi ülkelerinin dönemi analize dâhil edilmiştir. Analiz sonucunda, GSYİH, YÖN, Şeker TSH’nin, DBYS’ne etkisinin pozitif yönlü anlamlı, Alkol, GünSig SOX’in ise negatif anlamlı olduğu tespit BÖH’ına ise, TSH’nin Hükümetlerin, tütün politikaları ilgili alacakları önlemler, DBYS’nin uzamasına katkı sağlayacaktır. Bebek azaltılmasında sonuçlarının iyileştirilmesinde, SOX’nin azaltılmasına yönelik yapılacak politikaların güçlendirilmesi gerekmektedir.
