Formulation, morphology, dimensions, and colour scheme, along with other features, are connected with their propensity to reach the food webs and their dangers. Whilst ecological adversities of MPs have drawn considerable interest, the hazards to individuals from dietary exposure have yet to be determined. The aim of this review is to gauge existing understanding concerning MPs in foodstuffs and to explore the problems and inadequacies for threat assessment. The prevalence of MPs in foodstuffs and sugary drinks has been detected all over the world, but most researchers judged the existing information to be not only inadequate but also of dubious value, owing to the notable lack of agreement on a regulated quantification methods and a consistent appellation. Most published papers have highlighted potable water and condiments such as sugars, salts, and nectar as significant food components of MPs for humans. The threat assessment reveals significant discrepancies in our understanding of MP toxicity for human consumption, which hinders the estimate of risk-based regulations regarding food safety. The lack of comparators for evaluating MPs food consumption prohibits dietary MPs risk description and risk mitigation. Researchers and Food Safety Administrators confer various obstacles along with possibilities linked to the appearance of MPs in foodstuffs. Further investigation on the MPs categorization and exposures is essential considering that any subsequent threat evaluation record can contain a comprehensive dietary viewpoint.","PeriodicalId":10944,"journal":{"name":"Current Nutrition & Food Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135437685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Optimal nanoemulsion formulation and stability were achieved through balancing between requisite hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (rHLB) and surfactant concentration (Smix) of nanoemulsions. METHOD: The smallest droplet sizes of OEON: (z -185.1 nm ± 0.85) and TEON (z -130.1 nm ± 0.60), were achieved by using 10 g/100 mL of OEO and TEO with 15 g/100 mL Smix at ultrasonication for 2 min with no phase separation. The size of nanoemulsion droplet and PDI was found to be influenced by HLB value, treatment time, and Smix concentration. Antimicrobial analyses, including a zone of inhibition, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), and time-kill kinetics assay, were performed against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. RESULT: The antimicrobial findings demonstrated that OEO exhibited higher antimicrobial activity compared to TEO (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the OEON and TEON substantially reduced the MIC and MBC values, compared to OEO and TEO against all tested microorganisms (P<0.05). Throughout the time-kill assay, E. coli was reduced by 5 log CFU/ml within 120 minutes, while S. cerevisiae and S. aureus were eradicated after 60 and 120 minutes of incubation with OEON, respectively. CONCLUSION: In turn, TEON reduced E. coli by 5 log CFU/ml and S. cerevisiae by 4 log CFU/ml within 120 minutes, while S. aureus was inhibited within the same time of incubation with TEON. The nanoemulsion formulations of OEO and TEO considerably enhanced the antimicrobial properties, which provides a promising alternative plant-derived antimicrobial for pharmaceuticals and food applications.","PeriodicalId":10944,"journal":{"name":"Current Nutrition & Food Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134969908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although many pharmaceutical agents have been investigated for their potential to prevent or treat NAFLD, currently, there is no standard treatment to manage this ailment. Reports indicate that ginger and its phytochemicals gingerol and zingerone are effective in mitigating NAFLD in experimental study models. Furthermore, randomised control trials have demonstrated that ginger is also effective in preventing NAFLD in both adults and children. Mechanistic studies suggest that ginger mediates these beneficial effects by activating many pathways, such as reducing free radicals, dyslipidemia, and hepatic fat deposition. Concomitantly, ginger also increases antioxidant enzyme levels and insulin-sensitive effects, and all these pharmacological actions provide beneficial outcomes. In this review, the evidence from experimental and clinical trials has been emphasised. In addition, an attempt has been made to identify the gaps for future study to address for the benefit of the medical, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and agricultural businesses.","PeriodicalId":10944,"journal":{"name":"Current Nutrition & Food Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135783971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Guavira pomace was dried and milled to produce guavira pomace flour (GPF), which is rich in antioxidants and dietary fibers (polysaccharides). These compounds are known for their immunomodulatory and antitumor effects. Objective: To investigate whether GPF intake promotes immunomodulation and reduces Walker 256 tumor growth in rats. Methods: GPF was provided to Wistar rats in two different models: 1) 15-day Model, according to which, Walker 256 tumor-bearing rats received GPF (63 mg/200 g b.w./day) simultaneously to tumor growth for 15 days; 2) 45-day Model, according to which, tumor-bearing rats received GPF for 30 days before tumor cell implantation, as well as during tumor growth - it totaled 45 days. After animals were euthanized, tumors were collected and weighed, and tumor cells were isolated for proliferation capacity determination ex vivo. Enzymatic/colorimetric methods were used to determine resident peritoneal macrophages’ functionality, whereas blood T and B lymphocytes were assayed for proliferation capacity, ex vivo, under stimuli Results: The 15-day Model did not show tumor mass or cell proliferation reduction in the treated group. GPF stimulated macrophage response in tumor-bearing and non-tumor-bearing rats. However, there was a substantial reduction in tumor mass and tumor cell proliferation under the 45-day Model. Macrophage and lymphocyte response decreased; it suggested that GPF can directly act in the tumor. Conclusion: Based on these findings, GPF has immunomodulatory and antitumor actions, and ingestion time plays a key role in them.","PeriodicalId":10944,"journal":{"name":"Current Nutrition & Food Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135885455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the treatment of dysmenorrhoea, a variety of pharmacological medications are available, however, they all have significant side effects. Dietary supplements and lifestyle management, on the other hand, were found to have a major influence on the occurrence and control of dysmenorrhea. Objective: The objective of this paper is to study a comprehensive review of the dietary and nutritional supplements with special emphasis on dysmenorrhea. This paper focuses on understanding and interpreting the details of menstrual pain and its effective nutritional diet that can be used as a treatment for avoiding menstrual discomfort. Methods: The selection of data has been done by studying a combination of various research and review papers from different databases like PubMed, NCBI, Science Direct, WHO, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from the year 2000-2022. Results: Based on various papers and literature reviews, we have concluded about various dietary supplements and herbs that can be used to avoid pain during mensuration followed by its all-daily requirement of nutrition on different age groups and efficacy of treatments. Conclusion: According to current evidence, young women should be instructed in the proper use of dietary supplements, nutrition, and vitamins, as well as the inclusion of effective diet and lifestyle changes such as exercise and a well-balanced diet with adequate nutrition, as these are likely to reduce the negative effects of dysmenorrhea.","PeriodicalId":10944,"journal":{"name":"Current Nutrition & Food Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135755448","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
