Long-term effectiveness, outcomes and complications of bariatric surgery
World J Clin Cases. 2023 Jul 6;11(19):4504-4512. doi: 10.12998/wjcc.v11.i19.4504.ABSTRACTDietary imbalance and overeating can lead to an increasingly widespread disease - obesity. Aesthetic considerations aside, obesity is defined as an excess of adipose tissue that can lead to serious health problems and can predispose to a number of pathological changes and clinical diseases, including diabetes; hypertension; atherosclerosis; coronary artery disease and stroke; obstructive sleep apnea; depression; weight-related arthropathies and endometrial and breast cancer. A body weight 20% above ideal for age, gender and height is a...

Evidence That Increasing Serum 25(OH)D Concentrations to 30 ng/mL in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates Could Greatly Improve Health Outcomes
Biomedicines. 2023 Mar 23;11(4):994. doi: 10.3390/biomedicines11040994.ABSTRACTAccumulating evidence supports the potential protective effects of vitamin D against chronic diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, autoimmune diseases, cancers, cardiovascular disease (ischaemic heart disease and stroke), type 2 diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, stroke, and infectious diseases such as acute respiratory tract diseases, COVID-19, influenza, and pneumonia, as well as adverse pregnancy outcomes. The respective evidence is based on ecological and observational studies, randomized controlled trials, mechanistic studies, ...

Applying a nutrition security lens to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans to address metabolic health
Front Nutr. 2023 Apr 21;10:1141859. doi: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1141859. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTNutrition security - access to food that promotes well-being and prevents or treats disease, particularly among racial and ethnic minority populations, lower income populations, and rural and remote populations - is a national priority. Leading causes of death and disability in America, such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, and diabetes that disproportionately affect minorities are linked to preventable diet-related risk factors. Mounting evidence indicates that adherence to a lower-carbohydrate dietary pattern is associated with ...

Trimethylamine N-Oxide as a potential risk factor for non-communicable diseases: A systematic review
CONCLUSION: There is a dose-response relationship between TMAO levels and NCDs progression. Therefore, it can be studied as a therapeutic target or prognostic biomarker for dealing with NCDs.PMID:36330632 | DOI:10.2174/1871530323666221103120410

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid biomarkers and risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and mortality
CONCLUSIONS: Higher concentrations of marine-derived omega-3 PUFA biomarkers were associated with a significantly reduced risk of total CVD, CHD, and total mortality. Levels of ALA were inversely associated with a lower risk of T2D but not CVD-related outcomes. These data support the dietary recommendations advocating the role of omega-3 PUFAs in maintaining an overall lower risk of developing cardiovascular disease and premature deaths.PMID:35830775 | DOI:10.1016/j.clnu.2022.06.034

Meal Timing, Meal Frequency and Metabolic Syndrome
Nutrients. 2022 Apr 21;14(9):1719. doi: 10.3390/nu14091719.ABSTRACTIndividuals with metabolic syndrome have increased risk for developing health conditions, including cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Modifiable risk factors, such as exercise and diet, are key components in the prevention and control of metabolic syndrome. Specifically, dietary patterns and habits are extremely successful in controlling more than one of the metabolic syndrome risk factors. Meal timing and frequency have been associated with type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and other chronic conditions. However, there is limited evidence linking ...

Deep Lipidomics in Human Plasma - Cardiometabolic Disease Risk and Effect of Dietary Fat Modulation
Conclusions: We identified several lipids associated with cardiometabolic disease risk. A subset was beneficially altered by a dietary fat intervention, which supports substitution of dietary saturated FAs with unsaturated FAs as a potential tool for primary disease prevention.PMID:35422138 | DOI:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.121.056805

How Your Diet May Affect Your Risk of Breast Cancer
By Stacy SimonHave you ever said “no thanks” to a tempting dessert or eaten only salad for lunch because you were trying to cut back? If so, you’re among many women who try every day to protect their health by eating right. The American Cancer Society recommends eating mostly vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, and less red meat (beef, pork, and lamb), less processed meat (bacon, sausage, luncheon meats, and hot dogs), and fewer sweets. A healthy diet can help reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and certain cancer types.A healthy diet can also help you get to and stay at a healthy weight...
