Metabolic profile of healthy, normal-weight adults with low satiety responsiveness
The aim of this study was to characterize the metabolic profile of healthy, normal-weight adults presenting with low satiety responsiveness. Individuals were categorized with low or high satiety responsiveness (LSR and HSR, respectively) based on the satiety quotient (SQ), a marker of satiety responsiveness, which was calculated following two isocaloric breakfast test meals offered while participants were inside the whole-room indirect calorimete…
Effects of the Covid-19 associated United Kingdom lockdown on physical activity in older adults at high risk of cardiovascular disease
Introduction Physical inactivity and sedentary behaviour are linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease, infections and dementia, as well as placing a significant economic burden on healthcare systems. The implementation of COVID-19 pandemic lockdown measures aimed at reducing virus transmission posed challenges to the opportunity to be physically active. This study investigates how the first UK COVID-19 lockdown affected objectively meas…
Knowledge and beliefs about dietary inorganic nitrate in a representative sample of adults from the United Kingdom
Objective: Evaluate knowledge and beliefs about dietary nitrate among United Kingdom (UK)-based adults. Design: An online questionnaire was administered to evaluate knowledge and beliefs about dietary nitrate. Overall knowledge of dietary nitrate was quantified using a twenty-one-point Nitrate Knowledge Index. Responses were compared between socio-demographic groups. Setting: UK. Participants: A nationally representative sample of 300 adults. Res…
The economic burden of dementia in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs)
The future of human malnutrition
The major threat to human societies posed by undernutrition has been recognised for millennia. Despite substantial economic development and scientific innovation, however, progress in addressing this global challenge has been inadequate. Paradoxically, the last half-century also saw the rapid emergence of obesity, first in high-income countries but now also in low- and middle-income countries. Traditionally, these problems were approached separat…
Assessment of dietary nitrate intake in humans
Acute effects of video-game playing versus television viewing on stress markers and food intake in overweight and obese young men
Body composition indices of a load–capacity model
Objective Fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM) are frequently measured to define body composition phenotypes. The load–capacity model integrates the effects of both FM and FFM to improve disease-risk prediction. We aimed to derive age-, gender- and BMI-specific reference curves of load–capacity model indices in an adult population (≥18 years). Design Cross-sectional study. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure FM, FFM, appendicula…
Sugar consumption and global prevalence of obesity and hypertension
Objective The nutrition transition model provides an integrated approach to analyse global changes in food consumption and lifestyle patterns. Whether variability in food availability for consumption, lifestyle and sociodemographic factors is associated with the worldwide prevalence distribution of overweight, obesity and hypertension is unclear. Design Ecological analysis. Setting Country-specific prevalence estimates of overweight, obesity and …
