The consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) is associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). However, an updated and comprehensive assessment of the global burden attributable to SSBs remains scarce. Here we estimated SSB-attributable T2D and CVD burdens across 184 countries in 1990 and 2020 globally, regionally and nationally, incorporating data from the… Continue reading Burdens of type 2 #diabetes and #cardiovascular disease attributable to sugar-sweetened beverages in 184 countries

Late #eating is associated with poor #glucose tolerance, independent of body weight, fat mass, energy intake and diet composition in prediabetes or early onset type 2 #diabetes
This study investigates the impact of habitual late calorie intake on glucose metabolism in adults with overweight or obesity and diet or metformin-controlled prediabetes or type 2 diabetes independently of body weight, fat mass, energy intake or diet composition. Participants (n = 26) were classified as Later Eaters (LE) if ≥45% daily calories were consumed after 5 pm… Continue reading Late #eating is associated with poor #glucose tolerance, independent of body weight, fat mass, energy intake and diet composition in prediabetes or early onset type 2 #diabetes
#Breakfast energy intake and dietary quality and trajectories of #cardiometabolic risk factors in older adults
Highlights•Eating 20−30% of daily energy in breakfast links to less adiposity in older adults.•It is also related to less triglycerides and more HDL cholesterol (HDL-C).•A high-quality breakfast is linked to better adiposity, HDL-C, and kidney function.•Healthy breakfast habits relate to healthy aging by improving heart risk factors. ObjectivesNot skipping breakfast is associated with a better… Continue reading #Breakfast energy intake and dietary quality and trajectories of #cardiometabolic risk factors in older adults
Better #diet quality is associated with reduced body #pain in adults regardless of adiposity: Findings from the Whyalla Intergenerational Study of Health
Highlights•Better diet quality had a direct (beneficial) effect on pain.•Higher consumption of core foods was related to less pain in women, but not men.•Adiposity did not mediate the relationship between diet quality and pain.•Strategies for pain management should consider diet quality. AbstractDietary intake has been associated with pain and physical function, but it is unclear… Continue reading Better #diet quality is associated with reduced body #pain in adults regardless of adiposity: Findings from the Whyalla Intergenerational Study of Health
The Role of Dietary #Magnesium in #Cardiovascular Disease
In the past 20 years, a large number of epidemiological studies, randomized controlled trials, and meta-analyses have found an inverse relationship between magnesium intake or serum magnesium and cardiovascular disease, indicating that low magnesium status is associated with hypertension, coronary artery calcification, stroke, ischemic heart disease, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, and cardiac mortality. Controlled metabolic… Continue reading The Role of Dietary #Magnesium in #Cardiovascular Disease
Urinary #tartaric acid as a biomarker of #wine consumption and #cardiovascular risk: the PREDIMED trial
Background and AimsModerate wine consumption has been associated with lower cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in older populations. However, wine consumption information through self-reports is prone to measurement errors inherent to subjective assessments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between urinary tartaric acid, an objective biomarker of wine consumption, and the rate… Continue reading Urinary #tartaric acid as a biomarker of #wine consumption and #cardiovascular risk: the PREDIMED trial
Impact of #coffee intake on human #aging: Epidemiology and cellular mechanisms
Highlights•The regular consumption of moderate doses of coffee attenuates all-cause mortality•Coffee intake attenuates age-associated diseases (cardiovascular, stroke, cancer)•Coffee and its main components (caffeine, chlorogenic acids) control stress adaptation•Coffee intake preserves the main biological mechanisms of aging AbstractThe conception of coffee consumption has undergone a profound modification, evolving from a noxious habit into a safe lifestyle… Continue reading Impact of #coffee intake on human #aging: Epidemiology and cellular mechanisms
Added #sugar intake and its associations with incidence of seven different #cardiovascular diseases in 69,705 Swedish men and women
Introduction: The adverse health effects of sugar-sweetened beverage intake are well-established, but the implications of overall added sugar intake remain unclear. We investigated the associations between intake of added sugar and various sugar-sweetened foods and beverages and risk of 7 cardiovascular diseases in 69,705 participants aged 45–83 years (47.2% female) from the Swedish Mammography cohort… Continue reading Added #sugar intake and its associations with incidence of seven different #cardiovascular diseases in 69,705 Swedish men and women
#Chocolate intake and risk of type 2 #diabetes: prospective cohort studies
