Ergothioneine: an underrecognised dietary micronutrient required for healthy ageing?
Br J Nutr. 2023 Jan 14;129(1):104-114. doi: 10.1017/S0007114522003592.ABSTRACTErgothioneine is a naturally occurring amino acid and thiol antioxidant found in high amounts in mushrooms and fermented foods. Humans and animals acquire ergothioneine from the diet through the pH-dependent activity of a membrane transporter, the large solute carrier 22A member 4 (SLC22A4), expressed on the apical membrane of the small intestine. The SLC22A4 transporter also functions in the renal reabsorption of ergothioneine in the kidney, with avid absorption and retention of ergothioneine from the diet observed in both animals and humans. Er...

Longitudinal associations of circadian eating patterns with sleep quality, fatigue, and inflammation in colorectal cancer survivors up to 24 months post-treatment
Br J Nutr. 2023 Nov 28:1-40. doi: 10.1017/S0007114523002714. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFatigue and insomnia, potentially induced by inflammation, are distressing symptoms experienced by colorectal cancer (CRC) survivors. Emerging evidence suggests that besides the nutritional quality and quantity, also the timing, frequency, and regularity of dietary intake (chrono-nutrition) could be important for alleviating these symptoms. We investigated longitudinal associations of circadian eating patterns with sleep quality, fatigue, and inflammation in CRC survivors.In a prospective cohort of 459 stage I-III CRC survivors, four...

Association between Seaweed Intake and Risk of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Prospective Cohort Study
This study aimed to identify the longitudinal association between seaweed and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the Korean population. Data from 148,404 Korean adults aged 40 years and older without a history of T2DM, cardiovascular disease, or cancer at baseline were obtained from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study data. The participants' seaweed intake was obtained using a validated semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, and the diagnosis of T2DM was surveyed through a self-reported questionnaire during follow-up. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for T2DM were calculated using the Co...

Eating time variation from weekdays to weekends and its association with dietary intake and BMI in different chronotypes: Findings from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2017-2018
This study aimed to investigate the associations between mealtime variation from weekdays to weekends (eating midpoint jetlag), dietary intake and anthropometric parameters (weight, waist circumference, hip circumference and BMI), based on individuals' chronotype. The study utilized data from NHANES 2017-2018. Usual food consumption was estimated by calculating the weighted average of participants' food intake on weekdays and weekends. Eating midpoint jetlag, defined as the absolute difference between the midpoint of the first and last mealtimes on weekends and weekdays, was calculated. Chronotype was assessed by participa...

It ´s time: free meals at schools for all
Br J Nutr. 2023 Nov 28:1-14. doi: 10.1017/S0007114523002660. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe link between School Feeding Programs (SFP) and the promotion of healthy eating and health is being explored in studies performed in different countries. The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed flaws and weaknesses in contemporary food systems, with many school-aged children experiencing food insecurity and hunger. There is intense debate among policymakers regarding whether government school feeding programs should be universal or targeted. Countries such as Brazil and India, which have two of the most comprehensive universal free-of-...

The WUT (Weight, Urine Color, and Thirst) Venn Diagram is an Accurate Tool Compared to Urinary and Blood Markers for Hydration Assessment at Morning and Afternoon Timepoints in Euhydrated and Free-Living Individuals
This study investigated the accuracy of the WUT Venn diagram at morning and afternoon timepoints compared to blood and urine markers. Twelve men (21±2 years; 81.0±15.9 kg) and twelve women (22±3 years; 68.8±15.2 kg) completed the study. Body mass, urine color, urine specific gravity (USG), urine osmolality (UOSM), thirst level, and plasma osmolality (POSM) were collected at first-morning and afternoon spot samples for 3 consecutive days in free-living and euhydrated states. Number of markers indicating dehydration levels were categorized into either 3, 2, 1, or 0 WUT markers. Receiver operating characteristics analysis...

Early introduction of ultra-processed foods is associated with overweight and anemia in socially vulnerable Brazilian children
This study aimed to evaluate the early introduction of ultra-processed foods (UPF) and identify its association with overweight and anemia in Brazilian children living in a situation of social vulnerability. A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted in a Brazilian capital. Children aged 12 and 59 months were included. The presence of overweight and anemia was evaluated, as well as the introduction of 12 different UPFs in children's first year of life. Association analysis was performed using Poisson regression, with robust estimates of variances. A total of 561 children were studied; 85.5% had consumed at leas...
