Satiety is a crucial factor in the attempt to reduce food intake for long-term body weight loss. Since there is evidence for a negative correlation between cerebral energy levels and food intake, the provision of the primary energy substrate glucose to the brain through oral ingestion of carbohydrates could trigger feelings of satiety. Therefore, w...

We investigated the association between the inflammatory potential of the diet and hearing loss in the context of aging. We studied 3435 French adults enrolled in the SU.VI.MAX 2 (2007-2009) cohort. The inflammatory potential of the diet was estimated by the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII®) using ≥ 3 baseline 24-h dietary records. Subjective heari...

Dyslipidemia is a major health concern associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality. Long-term fasting (LF) has been shown to improve plasma lipid profile. We performed an in-depth investigation of lipoprotein composition. This observational study included 40 volunteers (50% men, aged 32-65 years), who underwent a medically supervi...

The relationship between sodium intake and the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is inconsistent. We, therefore, aimed to summarize the current evidence by conducting a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. We retrieved studies which compared any marker of sodium status between individuals with T2DM and thos...

Glycoproteomics deals with glycoproteins that are formed by post-translational modification when sugars (like fucose and sialic acid) are attached to protein. Glycosylation of proteins influences function, but whether glycosylation is altered by diet is unknown. To evaluate the effect of consuming a diet based on the Dietary Guidelines for American...
