Despite this, current eating habits diverge significantly from established dietary recommendations, namely the MD among young university students. The eating habits of young people are characterised by a high consumption of energy-dense foods and a low consumption of vegetables and fruit. Thus, university canteen food services are essential in promoting a healthy and sustainable diet. This systematic review aimed to identify the strategies for promoting adherence to the MD and healthy diets in Higher Education food service. This systematic review was based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Of the 39 studies that were retrieved, all focused on strategies to improve healthy eating, and none specifically used the term \"Mediterranean\". Studies were conducted in different countries worldwide. Architectural nudges, discounts on healthy food and nutritional information were identified as successful strategies, especially among females and students with higher nutrition education. A combination of nudging strategies in food service is a promising way to promote healthier food habits.","PeriodicalId":14087,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition","volume":" ","pages":"1-26"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143585385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To determine whether SA improves the disease rather than merely suppressing its progression, we assessed its effects using farnesoid X receptor (FXR)-deficient mice to provide a model of advanced hyperlipidaemia. Fxr-null mice were fed with a 5% SA-supplemented diet for nine weeks and showed significant decreases in the levels of liver triglycerides (p < 0.05), total cholesterol (p < 0.05), serum low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (p < 0.001). The expression levels of fatty acid-synthesizing genes (Fas and Scd1) and cholesterol-metabolizing genes (Hmgcr, Hmgcs, and Abca1), were significantly reduced. Furthermore, the SA supplementation has altered the gut microbiota and significantly increased the abundance of the genus Oscillospira (p < 0.001) and Parabacteroides (p < 0.01). These results suggest that SA improves lipid disruption and influences the composition of the gut microbiota in the Fxr-null mice.","PeriodicalId":14087,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143537108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It investigates how the gut microbiome develops and changes across life stages, focusing on the influence of dietary factors. The review explores how early-life feeding practices, including breastfeeding and formula feeding, shape the infant gut microbiota and have lasting effects. In elderly individuals, alterations in the gut microbiome are associated with increased susceptibility to infections, chronic inflammation, metabolic disorders and cognitive decline. The critical role of diet in modulating the gut microbiome throughout life is emphasised, particularly the potential benefits of probiotics and fortified foods in promoting healthy ageing. By elucidating the mechanisms connecting food systems to gut health, this review provides insights into interventions that could enhance gut microbiome resilience and improve health outcomes across the lifespan.","PeriodicalId":14087,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition","volume":" ","pages":"95-121"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142864223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lactating Wistar rats and their pups were divided into four groups based on litter size and maternal kefir intake. Sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene in breast milk revealed the predominance of the Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteriota phyla. Offspring gut microbiota exhibited clustering tendencies in kefir groups with varying genus abundance. Additionally, maternal kefir intake led to increased levels of butyrate acid in offspring faeces (> +30%, p > 0.05).

Data from the 2007 to 2020 NHANES were analysed using multiple logistic regression, restricted cubic spline (RCS) regression, and subgroup analysis.
