Mayo Clinic Minute: Does eating red meat affect heart health?
Red meat consumption has long been associated with increased risk of diseases, such as heart attack and stroke. A new study suggests that meat may not be so bad after all. Nevertheless, Dr. Stephen Kopecky, a Mayo Clinic cardiologist, says that limiting red meat in your diet is still important for heart health. Watch: The [...]

Sodium reduction in Turkey breast meat by using sodium anion species
This study aims at reducing the overall sodium content in turkey meat application by using alternative sodium species. Initial experiments studied the sodium absorption across the temperature range of 4 to 90 °C which showed higher sodium content for thermally processed samples over a longer cooking time. Overall, the adsorption rate was found to be slower and was not affected by protein denaturation. Additional experiments studied the sodium diffusion by replacing sodium chloride with alternative sodium salts with comparatively larger anions, which resulted in, 20–46% reduction in overall sodium content of thermally ...

Overlooked Virus Killer
Sales of vitamin C supplements have tripled in the last few weeks…
And the most powerful kind of vitamin C is sold out on Amazon. (More on that in a minute.)
I’m glad to see people turning to vitamin C. But the the chewable form you usually find at the drugstore won’t give you the boost you’re looking for. You see, absorption — or bioavailability — is an issue, and your body can only absorb about 500 mg of this conventional form of vitamin C before you hit saturation. And that’s nowhere near enough.
In a moment I’ll show you a better form of vitamin C… and how you can take ...

Things I know to be true 1 – We are all walking miracles
Back when I was child I genuinely believed that when my mother kissed my knee to make it better, she did actually do that. And as I grew older although that belief faded away in the light of the obvious ‘fact’ of the medical model, it never truly disappeared. Time and again I would reflect on what it meant to be healthy and when my own health challenges began in my mid-teens, some part of me always knew that my mother’s kiss held meaning.
I remember being 16 years old and just about to sit ‘O’ levels, as they were then. I had been having a period for what must have been weeks and I was tired a...

Featured Review: Taxation of the fat content of foods for reducing their consumption and preventing obesity or other adverse health outcomes
ConclusionsWe did not find enough reliable evidence to find out whether a tax on the fat content of foods resulted in people eating less fat, or less saturated fat.We did not find any evidence about how a tax on the fat content of foods affected obesity or overweight.The results of our review will change when further evidence becomes available.Discussing the findings of this review, lead author Stefan Lhachimi said, “A tax on saturated fats could be in principle a good approach to reduce the consumption of so-called junk foods, a group of food products which is fiendishly tricky to define in legal terms. By taxing a main...

Food biodiversity and total and cause-specific mortality in 9 European countries: An analysis of a prospective cohort study
We examined the associations between DSR and subsequent total and cause-specific mortality among 451,390 adults enrolled in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study (1992 to 2014, median follow-up: 17 years), free of cancer, diabetes, heart attack, or stroke at baseline. Usual dietary intakes were assessed at recruitment with country-specific dietary questionnaires (DQs). DSR of an individual ’s yearly diet was calculated based on the absolute number of unique biological species in each (composite) food and drink. Associations were assessed by fitting multivariable-adjusted Cox propor...

A score appraising Paleolithic diet and the risk of cardiovascular disease in a Mediterranean prospective cohort
ConclusionsOur findings suggest that the PaleoDiet may have cardiovascular benefits in participants from a Mediterranean country. Avoidance of ultra-processed foods seems to play a key role in this inverse association.

When the cupboard is bare: Impact of low pay revealed by conference
On a busy opening day of UNISON’s women’s conference – held virtually because of the continuing pandemic – delegates worked hard to ensure they have every chance of getting through the entire agenda.
Irene Graham from Northern Ireland told delegates about that region’s relaunch of the Feminist Recover Plan, which highlights the effects of both the pandemic and Brexit on women.
Conference voted to support the region’s plan and called on the national committee to use it as a model to shape its future work.
Describing the struggle low-paid women workers have to survive on “on the hamster wheel of life”, Laura ...

Update on Plant-Based Diets and Cardiometabolic Risk
AbstractPurpose of ReviewThe number of published studies on the health effects of plant-based diets has increased dramatically in the last decade. The purpose of this narrative review is to update the most recent evidence from large prospective cohort studies and meta-analyses on the effects of plant-based dietary patterns on cardiovascular outcomes and risk factors and total mortality.Recent FindingsMost new data from large prospective cohort studies carried out in the USA, Europe, and Asia continue to show inverse associations between plant-based diets and the incidence of ischemic heart disease and stroke, while less da...

State-of-the-Art Review: Evidence on Red Meat Consumption and Hypertension Outcomes
Am J Hypertens. 2022 May 13:hpac064. doi: 10.1093/ajh/hpac064. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHypertension (HTN) is a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including ischemic heart disease, stroke, heart failure and atrial fibrillation. The prevalence of HTN, as well as mortality rates attributable to HTN, continue to increase, particularly in the United States and among Black populations. The risk of HTN involves a complex interaction of genetics and modifiable risk factors, including dietary patterns. In this regard, there is accumulating evidence that links dietary intake of red meat with a high...
