Emotional eating (EE) is food consumption in response to feelings rather than hunger. EE related unhealthy intake and abdominal obesity (AO). However, little evidence exists about the association between dietary patterns (DPs) EE−AO interaction DPs. DPs allow describing combinations that people usually eat. We analyzed of with adults (≥18 years) AO (WC ≥ 80/90 cm women/men, respectively; n = 494; 66.8% women;) or without (n 269; 74.2% women) a cross-sectional study. Principal component...

Introduction. It has been reported that even with the same body mass index (BMI), there are subjects metabolically healthy or unhealthy phenotype. The main determinants of phenotype type and distribution fat, ectopic fat accumulation, genetics, lifestyle factors. Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) disengage mitochondrial respiration from ATP synthesis result in heat production, which turn is related to energy expenditure and, thus, accumulation. association UCP1 -3826A/G (rs1800592), UCP2 Ala55Val...

Metabolically healthy (MH) and metabolically unhealthy (MUH) phenotypes can be present in any subject independently of their body mass index (BMI). However, factors related to the presence these are poorly understood. Therefore, aim this cross-sectional study is describe prevalence characteristics associated with MH MUH Mexican subjects different BMI categories. Anthropometric biochemical parameters were evaluated after 12 h fasting. HMW (High Molecular Weight) adiponectin insulin levels...

Appetite regulation has been recognized as a promising target for the prevention of obesity, which become worldwide health issue. Polymorphisms in genes hormones or receptors including Leu72Met ghrelin and Gln223Arg leptin receptor could play role dietary intake, hunger, satiety process. The aim this study was to analyze subjective appetite assessments, relationship these polymorphisms. Subjects (n = 132) with normal BMIs were enrolled. Dietary intake analyzed 3-day diet records.

Abstract Background The ACTN3 gene is primarily expressed in fast skeletal muscle fibres. A common nonsense polymorphism this R577X (rs1815739), which causes an absolute deficiency of α‐actinin‐3 protein and alterations metabolism. Considering metabolic are influenced by nutrition genetic factors, as well lifestyle we hypothesise a possible association the with alterations.

Obesity is a globally prevalent metabolic disorder characterized by an increased number of adipose cells and excessive fat in adipocytes. Herbal medicines, such as ginger, have shown potential treating obesity inhibiting adipogenesis reducing adipocyte hypertrophy. Ginger contains bioactive compounds, particularly gingerols, which demonstrated anti-adipogenic and/or lipolytic effects. However, research on the effects 10-gingerol tissue remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate effect...
