BackgroundAvocado consumption is linked to better glucose homeostasis, but small associations suggest potential population heterogeneity. Metabolomic data capture the effects of food intake after digestion and metabolism, thus accounting for individual differences in these processes.ObjectivesTo identify metabolomic biomarkers of avocado intake and to examine their associations with glycemia.MethodsBaseline data from 6224 multi-ethnic older adults (62% female) included self-reported avocado… Continue reading Associations between Metabolomic Biomarkers of #Avocado Intake and #Glycemia in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis

Dietary #Sodium Intake and Risk of Incident Type 2 #Diabetes
ObjectiveTo fill the knowledge gap of the relation between long-term dietary sodium intake and type 2 diabetes (T2D), we evaluate the association between the frequency of adding salt to foods, a surrogate marker for evaluating the long-term sodium intake, and incident T2D risk.MethodsA total of 402,982 participants from UK Biobank (March 13, 2006 – October… Continue reading Dietary #Sodium Intake and Risk of Incident Type 2 #Diabetes
Untargeted metabolomic analysis investigating links between unprocessed red #meat intake and markers of #inflammation
BackgroundWhether red meat consumption is associated with higher inflammation or confounded by increased adiposity remains unclear. Plasma metabolites capture the effects of diet after food is processed, digested, and absorbed, and correlate with markers of inflammation, so they can help clarify diet-health relationships.ObjectiveTo identify whether any metabolites associated with red meat intake are also associated… Continue reading Untargeted metabolomic analysis investigating links between unprocessed red #meat intake and markers of #inflammation
Ultra-processed #foods and #cardiometabolic health: public health policies to reduce consumption cannot wait
Incomplete understanding of the multiple mechanisms underlying the link between ultra-processed foods and cardiometabolic health should not be an excuse for inaction argue Mathilde Touvier and colleaguesThe effect of diet on health has historically been considered from a nutrient based perspective—for example, excess total fat, saturated fat, dietary cholesterol, calories, sugar, or salt and lack of… Continue reading Ultra-processed #foods and #cardiometabolic health: public health policies to reduce consumption cannot wait
Use of #sugar in #coffee and #tea and long-term risk of #mortality in older adult Danish men: 32 years of follow-up from a prospective cohort study
Tea and coffee are the most consumed beverages worldwide and very often sweetened with sugar. However, the association between the use of sugar in tea or coffee and adverse events is currently unclear.ObjectivesTo investigate the association between the addition of sugar to coffee or tea, and the risk of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, cancer mortality… Continue reading Use of #sugar in #coffee and #tea and long-term risk of #mortality in older adult Danish men: 32 years of follow-up from a prospective cohort study
#Prebiotic #diet changes neural correlates of #food decision-making in #overweight adults: a randomised controlled within-subject cross-over trial
Objective Animal studies suggest that prebiotic, plant-derived nutrients could improve homoeostatic and hedonic brain functions through improvements in microbiome–gut–brain communication. However, little is known if these results are applicable to humans. Therefore, we tested the effects of high-dosed prebiotic fibre on reward-related food decision-making in a randomised controlled within-subject cross-over study and assayed potential microbial and… Continue reading #Prebiotic #diet changes neural correlates of #food decision-making in #overweight adults: a randomised controlled within-subject cross-over trial

Changes in #Coffee Intake, Added #Sugar and Long-Term #Weight Gain – Results from Three Large Prospective US Cohort Studies
BackgroundConsumption of both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee has been reported to attenuate long-term weight gain. Whether the association between coffee consumption and weight gain depends on the addition of sugar, cream or coffee whitener remains unclear.ObjectiveWe aimed to study the associations between changes in coffee consumption, caffeine intake and weight changes by considering the addition… Continue reading Changes in #Coffee Intake, Added #Sugar and Long-Term #Weight Gain – Results from Three Large Prospective US Cohort Studies
