Lifestyle change plays a crucial role in the prevention and treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). In recent years, diet soft drinks that emphasize “zero sugar and zero calories” have become all the rage, but whether diet soft drink consumption is associated with MASLD is not clear.MethodsThis study included data from the National… Continue reading Association between diet soft #drink consumption and #metabolic dysfunction-associated #steatotic liver disease: findings from the NHANES

Examining the Association between #Coffee Intake and the Risk of Developing #Irritable #Bowel Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Abstract: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a highly prevalent disorder of braingut interaction with a significant impact on quality of life. Coffee is a widely consumed beverage with numerous bioactive compounds that have potential effects on human health and disease states. Current studies on the effect of regular coffee consumption on the risk of developing… Continue reading Examining the Association between #Coffee Intake and the Risk of Developing #Irritable #Bowel Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Enhancing Vision: Exploring the Link Between Vitamin #C and Reduced #Cataract Risks – A Physician’s Perspective
As physicians continually explore avenues for promoting overall health, recent research has shed light on a potential ally in the fight against cataracts – Vitamin C. This essential nutrient, long celebrated for its immune-boosting properties, is now gaining recognition for its potential role in reducing the risk of cataract development. In this blog post, I… Continue reading Enhancing Vision: Exploring the Link Between Vitamin #C and Reduced #Cataract Risks – A Physician’s Perspective
Vitamin #B12 is a limiting factor for induced cellular plasticity and #tissue repair
Transient reprogramming by the expression of OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and MYC (OSKM) is a therapeutic strategy for tissue regeneration and rejuvenation, but little is known about its metabolic requirements. Here we show that OSKM reprogramming in mice causes a global depletion of vitamin B12 and molecular hallmarks of methionine starvation. Supplementation with vitamin B12 increases the efficiency… Continue reading Vitamin #B12 is a limiting factor for induced cellular plasticity and #tissue repair
Multi-omic network analysis identified #betacellulin as a novel target of #omega-3 fatty acid attenuation of western diet-induced nonalcoholic #steatohepatitis
Clinical and preclinical studies established that supplementing diets with ω3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) can reduce hepatic dysfunction in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) but molecular underpinnings of this action were elusive. Herein, we used multi-omic network analysis that unveiled critical molecular pathways involved in ω3 PUFA effects in a preclinical mouse model of western diet induced… Continue reading Multi-omic network analysis identified #betacellulin as a novel target of #omega-3 fatty acid attenuation of western diet-induced nonalcoholic #steatohepatitis
Inhibition of ALDH2 by quercetin glucuronide suggests a new hypothesis to explain red #wine #headaches
The consumption of red wine induces headaches in some subjects who can drink other alcoholic beverages without suffering. The cause for this effect has been attributed to a number of components, often the high level of phenolics in red wine, but a mechanism has been elusive. Some alcohol consumers exhibit flushing and experience headaches, and… Continue reading Inhibition of ALDH2 by quercetin glucuronide suggests a new hypothesis to explain red #wine #headaches
Consumption of ultra-processed #foods and risk of multimorbidity of #cancer and #cardiometabolic diseases: a multinational cohort study
It is currently unknown whether ultra-processed foods (UPFs) consumption is associated with a higher incidence of multimorbidity. We examined the relationship of total and subgroup consumption of UPFs with the risk of multimorbidity defined as the co-occurrence of at least two chronic diseases in an individual among first cancer at any site, cardiovascular disease, and… Continue reading Consumption of ultra-processed #foods and risk of multimorbidity of #cancer and #cardiometabolic diseases: a multinational cohort study
The Potential Role of Vitamin #E in Managing Non-Alcoholic Fatty #Liver Disease: Insights from Japan’s Aichi Medical University Study
Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) has emerged as a significant public health concern, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Characterized by the accumulation of fat in the liver without excessive alcohol consumption, NAFLD can progress to more severe conditions, such as non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and cirrhosis. While lifestyle modifications remain a cornerstone in managing NAFLD, recent… Continue reading The Potential Role of Vitamin #E in Managing Non-Alcoholic Fatty #Liver Disease: Insights from Japan’s Aichi Medical University Study
Effect of Dietary #Sodium on Blood #PressureA Crossover Trial
Dietary sodium recommendations are debated partly due to variable blood pressure (BP) response to sodium intake. Furthermore, the BP effect of dietary sodium among individuals taking antihypertensive medications is understudied.Objectives To examine the distribution of within-individual BP response to dietary sodium, the difference in BP between individuals allocated to consume a high- or low-sodium diet first,… Continue reading Effect of Dietary #Sodium on Blood #PressureA Crossover Trial
