Unhealthy lifestyle, stress and exposure to chemical are believed to increase the risk of developing thyroid disorders. Medication and surgery are commonly used to address thyroid diseases. Despite the advancement in medical technology, it was unfortunate that there had not yet to be any potential cure for hypothyroidism. Treatment in the form of synthetic thyroid hormone cause patients to suffer from the symptoms of hypothyroid, despite their thyroid hormone levels being balanced. Whereas the limitation of surgery is patient might need to rely on synthetic thyroid hormone for their lifetime after the thyroid gland is removed. Approaching thyroid disease and autoimmunity from a holistic level and seeing the body as an interconnected system is the better way to address disease. Many recent studies show dietary intervention offer a promising result in treating thyroid diseases. Therefore, a strict eliminating diet to soothe gut inflammation, restore digestive health, and address autoimmune diseases from a holistic approach could be the best way to prevent or treat thyroid diseases.","PeriodicalId":90227,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional disorders & therapy","volume":"8 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.4172/2161-0509.1000224","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42386371","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}

Methods: The changes of nutrition parameters and lipid and plasma amino acids profiles induced by immunonutrition and standard nutrition sipping were evaluated in 30 patients with cystic fibrosis in comparison with 55 control healthy subjects. Results: BMI, plasma prealbumin, transferrin were significantly deteriorated in patients with cystic fibrosis as well as plasma amino acids and lipid profiles in comparison with control subjects. Serum level of triacylgycerols significantly decreased in the cystic fibrosis patients after immunonutrion support. Immunonutrition lead to the elevation of glutamic acid, methionine, arginine and ornithine plasma concentration while the plasma concentration of glutamine, glycine, valine, threonine and tryptophan significantly decreased. Conclusion: Immunonutrition leads to the significant decrease of serum triacylglycerols and to the changes in plasma amino acids profile in the cystic fibrosis patients with malnutrition that may reflect an activation of immune system.","PeriodicalId":90227,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional disorders & therapy","volume":"08 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.4172/2161-0509.1000239","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70450138","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}

Family income, physical activity and sleep duration were important determinants impacting the risk of overweight/obesity in adolescents. Strategies which focus on collaboration among health sectors and education sectors, increasing awareness on adolescent adequate duration of sleep at night through mass media and training for parents at school level should be given to encourage their children to involve themselves in more physical exercises, sports and outdoor activities.

Then 100% of malnourished children with or without edema presented acidosis; that represents 80% of these 30 children.

The aims of the present study were to investigate 1) the associations between BMI and body fat in old adults, and 2) whether more sophisticated measures of body fat are stronger associated with cardiovascular risk than BMI. In the current cross-sectional analysis, the participants‘(N=232, 65-92 years) body fatness was estimated using BMI, waist-circumference, DXA (fat mass, visceral fat mass) and cardiovascular risk factors (blood lipids, glucose metabolism, blood pressure) were assessed. BMI correlated highly with fat mass measured by DXA independently from age tertiles and in both genders. In general, body fatness was positively related to several cardiovascular risk factors and this was persistently observed for all the different measures of body fatness. However, fat measures were not associated with total cholesterol or LDL. Sensitivity analysis indicated that BMI ≥ 25 identifies 70-100% of participants with the above mentioned cardiovascular risk factors outside normal range. We conclude in BMI is highly correlated with body fatness in old Icelandic adults. DXA measurement of body fatness is not better in estimating cardiovascular risk in old adults compared to simple BMI.","PeriodicalId":90227,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional disorders & therapy","volume":"6 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70449682","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}

This study analyzed the factors affecting stunting and wasting in children 0-59 month's old in Northern Ghana using secondary data from Feed the Future Northern Ghana survey data. The study found that the prevalence rate of stunting was 37.14%, 35.79%, and 25.11% for the Northern, Upper East and Upper West regions respectively, while the prevalence of wasting was found to be 11.11%, 11.24%, and 7.31% for these regions. The study also found that the age of child, household total expenditure, region, age of the head of household and household access to safe drinking water were found to be significantly associated with both stunting and wasting. Furthermore, the gender of child, and household location in an urban area, were also found to be significantly associated with only stunting while household access to productive capital was also found to be significantly associated with only wasting. In conclusion, these factors identified should be taken into account when designing interventions on malnutrition in Northern Ghana.","PeriodicalId":90227,"journal":{"name":"Journal of nutritional disorders & therapy","volume":"8 1","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70449615","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}

Study samples (three ml) were drawn once before 20 weeks and second sample was drawn at the time of delivery in red vacutainer tubes. Serum was analyzed for routine investigations (hemoglobin, TSH, glucose challenge test) and magnesium levels (using thiazole yellow spectrophotometrically). At 2.2 mg/dL (2.4 + 0.1 mg/dL) and 5 (4.9%) had serum magnesium levels <1.5 mg/dL (1.3 + 0.1 mg/dL). There was significant positive correlation between serum magnesium at <20 weeks with gestational age at delivery. Also, the correlation between serum magnesium at term with gestational age at delivery was positive and statistically significant. However, the correlations were not significant between maternal serum magnesium levels with baby weight at <20 weeks; at term and APGAR score at <20 weeks; at term.
