Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using the Brazilian version of the GloboDiet software. The 24HR method guided by the GloboDiet software was applied by face-to-face (n = 2093) interviews and a second measurement by telephone (n = 1084) interviews with participants from the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil). The adherence rate was calculated using data from control worksheets filled out by interviewers, whereas the Chi-square test was used to assess differences between sociodemographic groups and the participants’ final adherence status. For the interview’s duration, the data were presented as the median and the interquartile range—IQR (Q1–Q3 (25–75%)). Non-parametric tests were used to assess differences among individuals in terms of the total duration and stages of the interview. Adherence rates were 82.8% face-to-face and 68.4% telephone interviews. The total duration of the face-to-face and telephone interviews was 30.7 (IQR, 23.3–40.7) and 35.3 (IQR, 25.3–49.7) minutes (p < 0.001). These results evidence that the GloboDiet software is viable for the routine of an epidemiological study.","PeriodicalId":72810,"journal":{"name":"Dietetics (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47512940","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}

Yet, the consumption of fruits and vegetables remains low in some regions. Methodology: This exploratory quantitative study utilized a web-based survey instrument to probe the likelihood of consumption by Canadian consumers. Canadians who have lived in the country for 12 months or more and were 18 years of age or older were surveyed. Care was given to get a representative sample from all Canadian regions. Findings: Barriers to produce consumption include cost (39.5%), lack of knowledge and preparation skills (38.5%), and confusion surrounding health benefits (6.3%). There is further confusion surrounding the nutrition of frozen vs. fresh vegetables. Finally, respondents were concerned about pesticide residue on imported produce (63.4%). Originality: Although evidence that fruits and vegetables can mitigate disease and that promotion of fruit and vegetable consumption has been a key policy area for the Canadian government, consumers still fail to integrate sufficient fruits and vegetables into their diets. To our knowledge, this is the only study probing consumers on their fresh produce intake in the Canadian context. Public awareness and education about the regular consumption of fruits and vegetables and their nutritional value and health-promoting benefits can increase consumption in many Canadian regions and demographics.","PeriodicalId":72810,"journal":{"name":"Dietetics (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42525240","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}

A participant observation study with weighted dietary records was conducted in August 2019. Enumerators stayed in each targeted household for approximately one week and measured the ingredients and dishes. We compared the dietary intake of farm women in charge of meal preparation (n = 21) between the two regions and examined the contribution of each dish to the intake and the degree of home production for each food item. The results showed no difference in energy intake, but vitamin B2, B12, and C intakes were significantly higher in Vihiga, influenced by their consuming small fish and a variety of homegrown leafy vegetables. The people in Kitui consumed large quantities of homegrown pigeon peas, largely contributing to their nutritional intake. Dietary patterns were similar; common staple foods and tea with sugar accounted for about 40% of energy and protein intakes and fruit consumption was low. There was no difference in foods purchased frequently. These results suggested that promoting locally available fruits and vegetables would contribute to a sustainable supply of adequate micronutrients. Further studies are required to develop strategies to promote healthy dietary habits and improve health status.","PeriodicalId":72810,"journal":{"name":"Dietetics (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43161106","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}

The purpose of the present study was to systematically review the literature for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing saffron supplementation to placebo, or other interventions, in patients with an MS diagnosis. PubMed, CENTRAL, and clinicaltrials.gov were searched for relevant completed or ongoing RCTs. The Cochrane’s RoB tool 2.0 was used, and a qualitative synthesis without meta-analysis (SWiM) was performed. In total, five parallel, double-, or triple-blind RCTs were identified, fulfilling the study’s criteria, and were included in the SWiM. Intervention duration ranged from four weeks to a year. The summary RoB revealed some concerns, or even high risk for overall bias. The included RCTs failed to report particularities of their interventions (exact composition, active compound, safety assays, etc.) and adverse events. The SWiM revealed that according to the results of single trials, inflammation markers (TNF-a and IL-17) were reduced, and MS-specific biomarkers (MMP-9 and TIMP-1) and cognition were improved after saffron ONS, although definite conclusions regarding saffron efficacy with regard to these outcomes cannot be drawn. Two RCTs reported improvement in the redox status of patients receiving saffron, whereas, with regard to depression, the findings were conflicting. Overall, ONS with saffron compounds may prove beneficial in improving antioxidant defense and oxidative stress in patients with MS; however, the evidence appears scattered, heterogenous, and inadequate in terms of making any suggestions regarding the direction of effect of other outcomes. Trials of better design and MS-specific outcomes are required.","PeriodicalId":72810,"journal":{"name":"Dietetics (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45129903","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}

Preventing these improves their quality of life. Blood vitamin B2 (V.B2) and E (V.E) levels influence blood homocysteine (Hcy) levels, which, when elevated, increase the risk of stress fractures. We aimed to determine the effects of V.B2 and V.E supplementation on plasma Hcy concentrations in these athletes carrying the C677T polymorphism in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR). This study is a before–after study in 16 female athletes. It was divided into three intervention periods of V.B2 (28 mg/day), V.E (60 mg/day), and V.B2 + V.E intake, and each period was 14 days. Blood samples were collected before and after each period, and plasma Hcy concentration and each blood vitamin concentration were measured. Plasma Hcy concentration significantly decreased in all periods, but the maximum lowering effect was obtained when V.B2 and V.E were used in combination. The administration of V.B2 might have lowered the plasma Hcy level by maximizing the catalytic activity of MTHFR; V.E might have suppressed cell oxidation, increasing the efficiency of folate in lowering the plasma Hcy level. We propose the combined intake of V.B2 and V.E as effective nutrients to reduce plasma Hcy concentrations in female athletes with MTHFR polymorphisms.","PeriodicalId":72810,"journal":{"name":"Dietetics (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42221502","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}

In 2020, an anticipated 104,610 new cases of colon illness and 43,340 new cases of rectal abnormal growth were expected in the United States. Red and processed meat, body bloatedness, belly fatness, and binge drinking expands the occurrence of colorectal disease. Dietary fibres contribute to faecal bulking, but they are break down by gut bacteria and produce metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). SCFAs are chemical compounds that are mostly made up of acetate, propionate, and butyrate. Acetate and butyrate help to control mucus production and discharge, and thus, protect the gut mucosa. Reduced mucus secretion/increased bacterial catabolism, and fermentation of amino acids resulted in an increase of potentially detrimental metabolites such as branched-chain fatty acids, ammonia, amines, and N-nitroso complex components. Vital roles of fibres include reduction in the time that carcinogens encounter the intestinal lumen and promotion of healthy gut microbiota as well as modification of the host metabolism. The present review focuses on a brief introduction to various dietary fibres and specialised metabolites that can possess beneficial effect on CRC, as well as presenting our current, detailed understanding of various dietary fibres along with their potential effects on gut microbiota and its association with the colon cancer.

Bold, David Swinburne","doi":"10.3390/dietetics1030016","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3390/dietetics1030016","url":null,"abstract":"Male fertility is declining and affects approximately one in seven couples. Reasons for this are multi-factorial and the subject of on-going research, though environmental contaminants (such xenoestrogens) are believed to be contributory factors. Semen parameters can be improved through a healthy diet and nutritional supplementation has also been shown to improve semen parameters, clinical pregnancy and live birth rates significantly. Despite this, in medical care dietary modification beyond alcohol reduction is rarely recommended. The aim of this review was to consider the psychosocial impacts of infertility in males whilst assessing other nutritional and lifestyle interventions that can be used in personalized nutrition care. More tailored nutrition care needs to consider this and the taboo surrounding the male infertility experience. A systematic approach was used. Three electronic databases (CINAHL, Medline and Academic Search Complete) were searched using predetermined Boolean search terms and identified 125 papers for review. Hand searches were undertaken to ensure recent evidence was included. Duplicates were removed and predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied. Narrative synthesis was used for review and to develop preconceptual guidelines. Review data indicates dietary modification or supplementation with antioxidants such as vitamin C, vitamin E, coenzyme Q10, selenium, carnitine and zinc have been shown to improve markers of male fertility and reduce markers of seminal oxidative damage. Also, a Mediterranean style diet is also associated with higher quality sperm counts. Weight loss is beneficial in terms of normalizing endocrine profiles but at present it is not possible to determine if this is the effect of weight loss alone, or the combined effect of weight loss alongside other dietary improvement. Further research is therefore needed to understand the role of the many potential confounding factors. Despite this, infertility is emotionally challenging for men and nutrition, and personalised nutrition and lifestyle therapies have potential to support men trying to conceive. Pre-conceptual nutrition and lifestyle guidelines for men have been developed from this review and the use should be considered as the basis for more tailored nutrition care in practice.","PeriodicalId":72810,"journal":{"name":"Dietetics (Basel, Switzerland)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47742219","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}
