[ad_1] Children and adolescents face greater risk of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) when exposed to antibiotics or a western diet at early ages, according to researchers, including one of Indian origin. A meta-analysis of 36 observational studies representing approximately 6.4 million children showed that any exposure to antibiotics before age five was linked to a three times greater risk of paediatric IBD, and exposure to four or more courses of antibiotics to a 3.5 times greater risk. "Paediatric IBD cases are rising globally, and approximately one in four of all IBD cases are now diagnosed before age 21," said Nisha Thacker, the study`s lead author and a gastrointestinal dietitian at The University of Newcastle in Australia. A unique concern about paediatric IBD is the impact that the inflammation has on a child`s growth and the progression of puberty, so parents should be aware of this condition and the modifiable factors that influence it. Further, lowe

[ad_1] Nutrition is an essential component of every elite athlete's training programme. A recent study from the University of Georgia suggests that athletes' visual range might be improved by boosting their diet with colourful fruits and vegetables. The paper, which was published in Exercise and Sport Sciences Reviews, examines how a group of plant compounds that build up in the retina, known as macular pigments, work to improve eye health and functional vision.  Previous studies done by UGA researchers Billy R. Hammond and Lisa Renzi-Hammond have shown that eating foods like dark leafy greens or yellow and orange vegetables, which contain high levels of the plant compounds lutein and zeaxanthin, improves eye and brain health. "A lot of the research into macular lutein and zeaxanthin has focused on health benefits, but from a functional perspective, higher concentrations of these plant pigments improve many aspects of visual and cognitive ability. In this paper,

[ad_1] Yeast are good model organisms for studying ageing as they share many of the same cellular machinery as animals and humans. According to researchers at the Babraham Institute in UK, healthy ageing is achievable through dietary change without restriction by potentially optimising diet, and that ill-health is not an inevitable part of the ageing process. Scientists have long known that caloric restriction -- intentionally consuming far less calories than normal without becoming malnourished -- improves health in later life and may even extend life.  However, studies in mice show that caloric restriction really needs to be maintained throughout life to achieve this impact, and the health benefits disappear when a normal diet is resumed.  The new research, published in the journal PLOS Biology, conducted in yeast suggests an alternative to calorie restriction can lead to improved health through the lifecycle. “We show that diet in early life can switch yeast onto a

The study, published in the European Heart Journal Global study, showed that fruit, vegetables, dairy (mainly whole-fat), nuts, legumes and fish were linked with a lower risk of CVD and premature death in all world regions. The addition of unprocessed red meat or whole grains had little impact on health outcomes. "Low-fat foods have taken centre stage with the public, food industry and policymakers, with nutrition labels focused on reducing fat and saturated fat," said Dr Andrew Mente of the Population Health Research Institute, McMaster University in Canada. "Our findings suggest that the priority should be increasing protective foods such as nuts (often avoided as too energy dense), fish and dairy, rather than restricting dairy (especial

[ad_1] In India, the monsoon season is widely anticipated because it gives considerable relief and joy to people everywhere from the scorching sun. However, because the atmosphere is already fairly humid and early showers provide enough moisture in the air, this is also the time of day when humidity peaks.  Such weather is frequently characterised by a lack of fresh air in the atmosphere, which is particularly favourable to a wide variety of germs and diseases. Monsoon and Digestion cre Trending Stories Your whole digestive system becomes slow during the monsoon because of the humid weather. Inefficiencies in your digestive system, including your stomach, pancreas, and small intestine, can lead to issues including gas, acidity, bloating, and a persistent sense of fullness. All of these situations are unpleasant! Additionally, because fast food, sweets, and snacks are particularly cruel to your digestive system during the monsoon, the issues get worse. According to Ay
