    Abstract : Dietary fat quality influences the risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. A low-grade inflammation is suggested to contribute to the disease development, often accompanied by obesity. Whereas n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) have been considered anti-inflammatory, n-6 PUFA have been proposed to act pro-inflammatory. READ MORE

    Abstract : Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in most industrialised countries and in developing countries the trend in cardiovascular-related deaths is increasing. World-wide, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an emerging cause of disability and premature death. READ MORE

  5. 3. Diet and sarcopenia risk in community-dwelling older European adults

    Author : Diego Montiel Rojas; Fawzi Kadi; Elodie Ponsot; Andreas Nilsson; Rikard Landberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Muscle mass; Muscle strength; Physical function; Healthy diet; Mediterranean diet; Macronutrients; Healthy ageing; Physical activity; Metabolic syndrome;

    Abstract : The age-related decline in muscle strength and muscle mass can lead to sarcopenia with higher risk of falls, disability, and loss of independence. In this context, healthy dietary habits have the potential to delay onset of physical limitations, thereby promoting healthy ageing. READ MORE

  6. 4. Metabolic Health and Cognitive Function : The Roles of Lifestyle and Shift Work

    Author : Olga E. Titova; Christian Benedict; Robert Fredriksson; Veronica Witte; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : cognitive function; Mediterranean diet; omega-3 fatty acids; MRI; shift work history; sleep; metabolic syndrome; Epidemiologi; Epidemiology; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : The risk of cognitive impairment and metabolic disturbances increases during aging. Healthy lifestyle habits, such as a regular intake of fatty fish and adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MeDi), have been shown to slow age-related cognitive decline and decrease the risk of metabolic disturbances.

  7. 5. Genetic Variations in Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Disease: A Focus on Gene-Lifestyle Interactions and Mendelian Randomization

    Author : George Hindy; Diabetes - kardiovaskulär sjukdom; []
