The association between diet quality and chrononutritional patterns in young adults
ConclusionFor the general young adult population, meal timing needs to be considered. Food choices made by this cohort may be poorer during evenings when the desire for energy-dense nutrient-poor foods is stronger. However, meal timing may be less relevant for young adults who already engage in healthy dietary patterns. (Source: European Journal of Nutrition)

The intake of ultra-processed foods and homocysteine levels in women with(out) overweight and obesity: The Rotterdam Periconceptional Cohort
ConclusionThis study showed that a higher intake of UPF is associated with increased tHcy. Better knowledge and awareness of the nutritional quality of the diet in the periconceptional period may contribute to 1-CM and subsequently improve pregnancy course and outcome.Trial registration number and dateNTR4356, November 2010.

The association between obesity severity and food reward in adolescents with obesity: a one-stage individual participant data meta-analysis
ConclusionsA limited relationship was demonstrated between obesity severity and food reward in adolescents, although a lower preference for sweet could be a signal of severe obesity in a linear trend. Obesity is likely a heterogenous condition associated with multiple potential phenotypes, which metrics of body composition may help define.Clinical trial registrationsNCT02925572:https://classic.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02925572.

Dietary protein and blood pressure: an umbrella review of systematic reviews and evaluation of the evidence
Discussion/conclusionThis umbrella review showed uncertainties whether there are any effects on BP from the intake of total protein, or animal or plant proteins, specifically. Based on data from two SRs with milk protein, it cannot be excluded that certain types of protein could favourably influence BP. (Source: European Journal of Nutrition)

Diverse impacts of red palm olein, extra virgin coconut oil and extra virgin olive oil on cardiometabolic risk markers in individuals with central obesity: a randomised trial
ConclusionThe three oils, each of which has unique phytonutrient and fatty acid compositions, manifested statistically similar cardiometabolic effects in individuals with central obesity at risk of developing cardiovascular diseases with distinct circulating antioxidant properties.Clinical trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05791370).

Effects of resveratrol on the anthropometric indices and inflammatory markers: an umbrella meta-analysis
ConclusionThe findings suggest the beneficial effects of resveratrol supplementation on reducing general and central obesity, as well as decreasing some inflammatory markers. Nevertheless, further high-quality research is required to prove these achievements and also evaluate resveratrol's effects on other inflammatory markers. (Source: European Journal of Nutrition)

Comparison of the impact of saturated fat from full-fat yogurt or low-fat yogurt and butter on cardiometabolic factors: a randomized cross-over trial
ConclusionThis study suggests that short-term intake of SFAs from full-fat yogurt compared to intake from butter and low-fat yogurt has fewer adverse effects on plasma lipid profile.ClinicalTrials.govNCT05589350, 10/15/2022. (Source: European Journal of Nutrition)
