Nutrition knowledge and skills enable individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) to make food choices that optimise metabolic self-management and quality of life. The present study examined the relationship between nutrition knowledge and skills, and nutrient intake in T2DM. A cross-sectional analysis of diabetes-related nutrition knowledge and nutrient intake was conducted in 124 T2DM individuals...

• We investigate relationships between red deer intake of rapeseed and spruce bark. Bark biomass consumption increases above a threshold temperature in spring. This coincides with change the bark’s concentration starch. do not find significant influence on bark stripping. The distribution population density ( Cervus elaphus ) are increasing several regions Europe. may cause severe damage commer...

Summary Background & aims Breastfeeding is the gold standard infant feeding. Data on macronutrients in relation to longitudinal body composition and appetite are very scarce. The aim of this study was investigate human milk at 1 3 months association with during early life healthy, term-born infants. We hypothesized that infants receiving higher caloric would have more fat mass satiate earlier. ...

Understanding nutrient intake of anorexia nervosa (AN) patients is essential for the treatment. Therefore, estimates of total energy and nutrient consumption were made in a group of young women (19 to 30 years) with restricting and binge purge subtypes of AN participating in an ecological momentary assessment study. Participants completed three nonconsecutive 24-hour diet recalls. Mean nutrient...

Web-based 24-h dietary recalls and questionnaires were obtained from 553 Dutch well-trained athletes. The total energy and macronutrient intake was compared between discipline-categories (endurance, team, and strength) within gender, and dietary inadequacy, i.e., too low or high intakes, according to selected recommendations and guidelines, was evaluated by applying a probability approach. On a...

It is generally thought that macronutrients stimulate intake when sensed in the mouth (e.g., sweet taste) but as food enters the GI tract its effects become inhibitory, triggering satiation processes leading to meal termination. Here we report experiments extending recent work (see Zukerman et al., 2011 [1]) showing that under some circumstances nutrients sensed in the gut produce a positive fe...

OBJECTIVE To estimate the potential impact on cardiovascular health of modifying dietary intake of saturated fat across the New Zealand population, and whether this would be appropriate and feasible. METHODS First, a literature review of meta-analyses was conducted to estimate the magnitude of reduction in risk for cardiovascular events in response to a reduction in dietary saturated fat inta...

background: the purpose of this study was to assess the energy and nutritional intakes of female aerobic athletes in two different social - economic classes.   methods: the subjects were 99 female aerobic athletes aged between 15 to 50 years old. the dietary and energy intakes were based on 2 day 24 hours food recall. the demographic details were assessed by anthropometric measurements includin...

Previous studies have demonstrated that meeting the dietary recommendations for macronutrients was significantly associated with higher cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) levels in adults. However, the relation between the status of micronutrient intake and CRF still remains unclear. This study examined the association between micronutrient intake status (based on adherence to the dietary referenc...

BACKGROUND New genetic loci, most of which are expressed in the brain, have recently been reported to contribute to the development of obesity. The brain, especially the hypothalamus, is strongly involved in regulating weight and food intake. OBJECTIVES We investigated whether the recently reported obesity loci are associated with measures of abdominal adiposity and whether these variants aff...
