“The results of the study indicate that diets rich in nicotinamide riboside, a derivative of vitamin B3, protect these mice from developing HCC in its most initial stage, when genotoxic stress is damaging cellular DNA.”

“This research was done by my colleagues and mentor, Dr. Bruce Ames, and showed that people eating terrible diets can improve their metabolism and decrease inflammation in just two months if they add micronutrients and fiber to their otherwise unhealthy diet.”

“APOE4-carrying mice that ate a DHA-rich diet retained their sense of smell and the ability to distinguish between objects based on their scent. Researchers fed normal mice and APOE4 carriers a regular diet or one supplemented with DHA.”

“Adults who followed calorie-restricted diets reported slightly higher depression scores than those not on any specific diet. Among people with overweight, low-calorie diets were associated with a modest increase in depressive symptoms, while low-nutrient diets were linked to an even greater increase.”

“It carries an increased risk for poor health outcomes including falls, disability, hospitalization, and death. A key driver in the development of frailty is inflammation, which often accompanies diet-induced changes in the gut microbiota.”

“Their data showed in a leukemia model, the ketogenic diet seemed to make cancer more aggressive in mice who were not also given a PI3K inhibiting drug. However, the combination of a PI3K inhibitor and ketogenic diet showed efficacy in many different cancer types (in mice).”

“Other patterns included the Mediterranean diet, the DASH diet, a plant-based diet, and the Planetary Health Diet. The researchers also examined diets linked to higher levels of inflammation and insulin resistance and the amount of ultra-processed food people ate.”

“However, the researchers cautioned that reduced calorie intake and possible lifestyle changes limited causal conclusions about the diet’s physiological benefits. Together, these studies provide strong evidence that switching to organic food can lower measured pesticide exposure within days to weeks.”

“A low-glycemic index Mediterranean diet and aerobic exercise corrects gut microbial imbalance in people with fatty liver disease. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, or NAFLD, is a syndrome that encompasses multiple states of liver dysfunction, including steatosis (fatty liver), nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, and cirrhosis.”

“This balanced diet that removed grains, dairy, processed foods, and sugars (except for honey). It is great to see some physicians embracing using diet to treat ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease instead of steroids, which suppress the immune system and don't actually treat the underlying issue including microbiome imbalance among other things.”
