The culinary medicine elective “Prospective Physicians For Fibre” improves fibre intake and nutrition knowledge in German medical students
Ready-to-eat food intake associates with PHQ-9-based depression in US adults
Ready-to-eat food intake frequency is associated with PHQ-9-based depression in the NHANES. Given the high popularity of ready-to-eat foods in the US, these findings have important public health nutrition implications, and warrant additional research and targeted interventions to promote healthier meals sold by food outlets
Secular Trend Analysis of NHANES Data Suggests Only Modest Increases in Health-Related Lifestyle Advice Delivered by Health Professionals
Chronic non-communicable diseases are widespread in the US and exert a high burden on its society. Poor lifestyle habits contribute to this contemporary public health crisis. To address the prevalence of non-communicable diseases and related risk factors in Americans, we studied trends in US health professionals' delivery of health-related lifestyle advice. The major aim was to identify trends and long-term directions in the predicted probability…
Food literacy in Venezuelan adolescents
Food literacy reflects personal behaviours around healthy eating and is an important skill for individuals to make healthy dietary choices. The present cross-sectional study investigated food literacy and the ability to identify n = 43 foods of plant origin in n = 1322 Venezuelan adolescents aged 15–17 years in the city of Puerto La Cruz, Venezuela. With only n = 14 correctly identified plant food items (median; IQR: 12), the performance in this …

International medical electives during and after the Covid-19 pandemic - current state and future scenarios
Clinical electives in China
In recent decades, China has quickly transformed itself into a modern, urban, technological and economic powerhouse. China’s medical education system is internationalizing and attracting a considerable number of foreign students seeking medical degrees and other clinical experience, such as observerships, in China. Although the majority of international students in China come from low- and middle income countries, China’s rise towards the world’s…
Shiftwork Is Associated with Higher Food Insecurity in U.S. Workers
The number of shift workers has increased substantially within the last decades to keep pace with the increasingly complex societal need for 24 h services. Shift work has been associated with unhealthy lifestyles and a lower overall diet quality. Little is known, however, with regard to food security and consumer behavior in shift workers. The present study sought to address this gap in the literature, exploring a sample of n = 4418 day workers a…
Bowel Health in U.S. Shift Workers
Working outside of regular daytime hours is increasingly common in current societies and poses a substantial challenge to an individual's biological rhythm. Disruptions of the gastrointestinal tract's circadian rhythm and poor dietary choices subsequent to shiftwork may predispose the shift workforce to an increased risk of gastrointestinal disorders, including constipation, peptic ulcer disease, and erosive gastritis. We investigated bowel healt…
Plasma Leptin and Adiponectin after a 4-Week Vegan Diet
Adiponectin and leptin are important mediators of metabolic homeostasis. The actions of these adipokines extend beyond adipocytes and include systemic modulation of lipid and glucose metabolism, nutrient flux, and the immune response to changes in nutrition. Herein, we hypothesized that short-term intervention with a vegan diet might result in an improvement of plasma concentrations of adiponectin and leptin and the leptin/adiponectin ratio. We i…
Nutrient Intake and Dietary Acid Load of Special Diets in the NHANES
Western diets are characterized by a high dietary acid load (DAL), which has been associated with adverse clinical outcomes, including type-2-diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Effective dietary strategies to lower DAL are urgently warranted. Plant-based diets (PBD), including vegetarian and vegan diets, are an effective measure to reduce DAL. Notably, not every individual wishes to adopt a PBD. Instead, many people rely on special diets promising …

Diet and Consumer Behavior in U.S. Vegetarians
An increasing number of individuals adopt plant-based diets for their potential health benefits. Understanding vegetarians' dietary behavior in the context of their socioeconomic background is essential for pro-vegetarian messaging and to influence public beliefs about plant food consumption. Thus, this study sought to investigate diet and consumer behaviors in U.S. vegetarians. This is a cross-sectional, population-based study with data from the…
A Vegan Diet Is Associated with a Significant Reduction in Dietary Acid Load
The composition of diet strongly affects acid-base homeostasis. Western diets abundant in acidogenic foods (meat and cheese) and deficient in alkalizing foods (fruits and vegetables) increase dietary acid load (DAL). A high DAL has been associated with numerous health repercussions, including cardiovascular disease and type-2-diabetes. Plant-based diets have been associated with a lower DAL; however, the number of trials exploring this associatio…
