Dietary proteins are indispensable to human nutrition. In addition their tissue-building function, they affect body composition and regulate various metabolic pathways, as well satiety immune system activity. Protein use can be examined from a quantitative or qualitative viewpoint. this scoping review, we compare animal- plant-based protein sources in terms of effects on health the environment. We conclude that consumption vegetable is associated with better outcomes overall (namely, cardiovascular system) than animal-based product use. The healthier dovetail lower environmental impact, which must considered when designing an optimal diet. Indeed, planet cannot disjointed being. Future research will clarify mechanisms action underlying compared animal sources, fostering agronomic practices influencing public direction benefit both its inhabitants.

The Association Between Adherence to the Mediterranean Diet and Depression and Anxiety Symptoms in University Students: The Mediating Role of Lean Mass and the Muscle Strength Index

Nutrients, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(2), С. 346 - 346

Опубликована: Янв. 18, 2025

Background/objectives: recent studies have suggested that components typical of the Mediterranean diet (MedDiet) are associated with depression and anxiety prevention. In this sense, main objective study was to analyse associations between adherence MedDiet symptoms examine whether relationship is mediated by lean mass muscle strength index (MSI). Methods: a cross-sectional (based on data obtained from Nuts4Brain-Z study) conducted 2023–2024, involving 428 university students, aged 18–30 years, Spanish public university. Depression assessed using Beck Inventory (BDI-II), via General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) tool. Adherence MEDAS questionnaire. Lean bioimpedance, MSI measured dynamometer. ANCOVA models were used test mean differences in scores categories (low < 9 points vs high ≥ points). Serial multiple mediation models, adjusted for confounders, explore role relationships symptoms. Results: students exhibited lower (p 0.05) than did low MedDiet. The analysis preliminarily revealed both acted as mediators anxiety. Conclusion:adherence per se does not appear direct effect because these partially (for depression) or entirely anxiety) explained MSI.

Is there any relationship between plant nutrition and human health? The overall response to this question is very positive, a strong the of plants humans has been reported in literature. nutritional status edible consumed by can have negative or positive impact on health. This review was designed assess importance bioactive compounds for health under umbrella sustainable agriculture. With respect first research question, it found that bioactives (e.g., alkaloids, carotenoids, flavonoids, phenolics, terpenoids) crucial role due their therapeutic benefits, potentiality depends several factors, including botanical, environmental, clinical attributes. Plant could be produced using tissue culture tools (as kind agro-biotechnological method), especially cases underexploited endangered plants. Bioactive production many climate change (heat stress, drought, UV radiation, ozone, elevated CO2), environmental pollution, problematic soils (degraded, saline/alkaline, waterlogged, etc.). Under previously mentioned stresses, reviewing literature, association depending kinds stress observed correlation (or growth factors) might explain these Their accumulation stressed increase tolerance roles. results study are keeping with previous observational studies, which confirmed start from contents, humans. report analyzes pictorial presentation.

There are several types of plant-based diets, with unknown differences across diets on total/plant protein intake and variety plant sources consumed. This systematic review compares total intake, proportion proteins main plant-protein consumed four primarily diets: vegan, vegetarian, pesco-vegetarian semi-vegetarian. We included observational studies reporting and/or in generally healthy adults that were published between 2002 2023. determined (i) % energy from protein, (ii) the relative to (iii) (median contribution each source intake; interquartile range) diets. The broadly classified into United States Department Agriculture (USDA) food-groups: "grains", "nuts seeds", "soy-products" "beans, peas, lentils". 13 intake/sources conducted US, Europe, South Korea. Of these, 7 reported 11 semi-vegetarian ranging 10–17.4%. Vegan had highest (ranging 77–98%) lowest 37–83%). Plant was grains 60–78%). Nuts seeds most vegetarian (7.9%;2.9–10.3%) least (3.7%;2–14.8%). Soy products, beans, lentils vegan (17.3%;16.3–19.9 19.6%;14.6–21.3, respectively) (3.7%;1.3–13.9 8.5%;5.2–10.2) a sources, while mainly relied as source.
