Red wine (RW) consumption has been proposed to have a potential health benefit. However, the effect of RW consumption on the brain is not entirely known, mainly when associated with aging. Regular red wine consumers (n = 30) and abstainers (ABST; n = 27) without cognitive impairment were evaluated for brain structural characteristics (Fazekas score...

Background: Available evidence indicates that junk foods, defined as unhealthy foods with high-calorie and low-nutrient value, negatively affect mental and metabolic health of children. This study aimed to conduct a meta-analysis to clarify the association between junk food consumption and psychological distress in children and adolescents.Methods:...

Objectives: prolonged fasting influences threat and reward processing, two fundamental systems underpinning adaptive behaviors. In animals, overnight fasting sensitizes the mesolimbic-dopaminergic activity governing avoidance, reward, and fearextinction learning. Despite evidence that overnight fasting may also affect reward and fear learning in hu...

Background: The current work involved monitoring two biomarkers in the plasma of children with ASD: the cofactor thiamine that is involved in neurotransmitters modulation for acetylcholine, and the compound histamine, which acts as a neuromodulator by regulating the release of other neurotransmitters. This is the first report to highlight the poten...

Background: Childhood malnutrition can have devastating consequences on health, behavior, and cognition. Edible insects are sustainable low cost high protein and iron nutritious foods that can prevent malnutrition. However, it is unclear whether insect-based diets may help prevent changes to brain neurochemistry associated with malnutrition.Materia...

Objective: The ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat, adequate-protein, and low-carb diet. Ketone bodies increase in the blood due to low carbohydrate content and high-fat content in the diet. The most important feature of the ketogenic diet is that it causes the production of ketone bodies in the liver. Ketone bodies are an alternative fuel to glucose...

Background: Based on evidence there are accepted links among early nutrition, epigenetic processes, and cognitive performance. Almond as a nutritious food could exert neuroprotective effects and improve anxiety, learning, and memory.Methods: In the current study, female rats were fed with a diet containing 5% (w/w) almonds during the mating period ...

Objetive: The search for the etiology of Alzheimer's disease has revealed dysregulation of amyloid protein precursors, β-secretase, mitophagy, apoptosis, and Tau protein genes after ischemic brain injury. Due to this and the fact that some flavonoids have demonstrated anti-amyloidogenic effects on AD targets, we aimed to investigate whether they ar...

Chronic low-grade inflammation is associated with a state of diet-induced obesity that impacts systemic tissues and can cross the blood-brain barrier to act directly on the brain. The extent to which pro-inflammatory cytokines released in these conditions affect dopamine presynaptic neurotransmission has not been previously investigated. The purpos...

ABSTRACTThe results of treatment effect of vitamin or antioxidant intake on diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) was inconsistent. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to examine whether these supplements are effective in DPN treatment. We searched seven databases from inception to October 2021. All RCTs of...
