1. Metabolic profiling of meat and fish and their impact on human metabolism
Abstract : High intake of meat is frequently associated with increased risk of disease, while the opposite is true for fish; yet few studies have compared meat and fish in terms of both its composition of low-molecular weight (LMW) molecules and its effects on metabolite concentrations in humans. The work presented in this thesis aimed to use metabolomics to get a holistic overview of compositional differences between fish and meat, and the effects of dietary fish or meat intake on human metabolism.

3. Adolescent nutrition in rural Bangladesh : Studies on diet, cardiometabolic indicators, physical activity and fitness in the MINIMat cohort
Abstract : Adolescent nutrition is crucial for curbing non-communicable disease burden among transitioning populations in resource-limited settings. This thesis explored the gender and socio-economic stratification of diet, physical activity (PA) and fitness, and the relationship of these modifiable dimensions of nutrition with cardiometabolic risk among adolescents of a birth cohort in rural Bangladesh.

5. Metabolic consequences of a Paleolithic diet in obese postmenopausal women
Abstract : BackgroundObesity, in particular abdominal adiposity, is associated with elevated fatty acids and pro-inflammatory adipokines, which are linked to ectopic fat storage and insulin resistance. During menopause, there is a redistribution of fat from the peripheral to abdominal depots. READ MORE
