Introduction Muscle injuries are common among elite athletes and compromise competitions and training schedules. Within the interventions to treat a sports injury, the nutritional approach is key to improve the physiological response and maintain the body composition to promote a quick and safe return to the play. Objective Present an overview of the nutritional strategies and recommendations after...
Purpose Sedentarism is a global epidemic that engages 60 to 70% of the global population. A progressive physical activities decline occurs from childhood to adolescence. This study aims to compare extracurricular physical activity among students with and without overweight and to relate it to the level of physical activity of their parents. Methods This cross-sectional study evaluated 375 children...
Purpose The aim of this short review is to present and discuss the available evidence regarding the effects of consumption of compounds with functional properties on economic aspects. Methods Medline (PubMed), EMBASE, and Scielo were used to search intervention studies published between 2000 and 2018 on the effects of functional bioactive compounds ingestion (via diet or supplement use) and economic...
Healthy aging is the individual’s possibility of maintaining the functional ability that enables well-being in older age, along with the maintenance of independence, a crucial factor for ensuring health and quality of life in older people. Loss of muscle mass, strength, and function are relevant threats to independent living and progressively occur with senescence and aging, worsening physical performance,...
Background Safe food production is a vital part of providing nutrient-dense food to meet consumer demand. The production and distribution of food is a multistep system from farm to fork, with the potential for food contamination at many stages on-route. Chemical contamination from agriculture and aquaculture, food packaging and disinfection and biological contamination with pathogenic organisms represent...
Purpose To verify if the bark of Passiflora edulis prevents obesity-related disorders and oxidative stress in db/db mice. Methods Obese male db/db mice (n = 14 animals) were randomly divided into two groups to receive standard chow and water (obese, n = 7 (OB)) or standard chow with bark of Passiflora edulis (BPe) (obese + BPe, n = 7 (OB + BPe)) for 16 weeks. The evaluated parameters in animals...
Purpose Studies on Ethiopian Orthodox Christian (EtOC) religious fasting with vegan diet influencing body composition and blood metabolites remain limited. This study assessed the effect of consuming a vegan diet on changes of body composition and blood metabolites in a group of EtOC religious fasters and associated results with cardio-metabolic health. Methods Participants were 98 EtOCs, with a...
Background Chickpea is an important food legume of the world offering valuable nutrients. Employing the degree of hydrolysis (DH) by the enzyme alcalase and flavourzyme, the functional properties of two chickpea species i.e. Cicer arietinum and Cicer reticulatum was investigated. This includes antioxidant, physicochemical properties and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE-I) inhibitory activities....
Purpose Ascorbic acid (AA) diminishes superoxide and thereby prevents peroxynitrite formation from superoxide and nitric oxide (NO). As the neuropathic pain could be a consequence of a defect in antioxidant defenses and changes in reactive nitrogen species, the present study was designed to investigate the involvement of NO pathway in the analgesic effect of ascorbate in the chronic constriction injury...
