The chloroplast is best known for its role in photosynthesis, the process by which sunlight energy is converted into chemical energy in the form of sugar. Research conducted at the University of Nottingham (UK) over several years has revealed the nutritional composition of the chloroplast and the physical pr

Diet quality, beyond total fat, may shape the immune tone of the brain in Alzheimer's-relevant contexts. We examined whether the fatty acid profile and food matrix of high-fat diets (HFD) modulate hip...

Barley is rich in fermentable dietary fiber and phenolic compounds, both of which have recognized benefits for gut health and whose functionality is influenced by processing. Here, four barley genotyp...

Postmenopausal women are approximately twice as likely to develop cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) as premenopausal women. Plant-based diets rich in fruits and vegetables, due to their high content of ...

This study investigated the role of soluble dietary fiber, specifically β-glucan, as a modulator of nutrient-specific food choice and metabolic function using Drosophila melanogaster as a model. Adult...

This study investigated the effects and underlying mechanisms of a fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) and sea buckthorn complex (FS) on blood glucose and lipid metabolism in type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) ...

Increased evidence suggests that moderate activation of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) can delay aging and ameliorate neurodegenerative pathologies. Stevioside (Ste), a natural ze...

Fermented foods are staples in diets worldwide and are known for their health benefits. Microorganisms are the key to fermented food production as they convert raw substrates into digestible, nutritio...

Background: Cheese serves as a dietary source of vitamin K; however, its impact on vitamin K status biomarkers in humans and the role of dietary vitamin K in modulating lipid profiles have yet to be e...

The vaginal microbiota plays a key role in female fertility, yet its interaction with diet and lifestyle remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to assess the influence of the Mediterranean diet (MD)...

This research examined the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of ethanol-modified supercritical CO2 (EtOH-modified sc-CO2) coffee pulp extract after INFOGEST 2.0 in vitro simulated gastrointest...

There is mounting evidence that the neuroprotective benefits associated with olive oil consumption are related to the presence of the phenolic alcohols tyrosol (Tyr) and hydroxytyrosol (HT). In vitro ...

Background: cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome are major contributors to global morbidity and mortality. Dyslipidaemia plays a central role in their pathogenesis. Olive-derived polyphenols,...

Findings reveal fermentation transforms food proteins into microbial proteins, highlighting their role in nutrition, gut microbiome interactions, and potential health benefits.

Walnuts (Juglans regia L.) are attracting increasing interest from consumers, industries, and the healthcare community due to their high content of bioactive compounds, including (poly)phenols, carote...
