The triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) is a tool for insulin resistance evaluation, however, little known about its association with coronary artery disease (CAD), which the major cardiovascular death cause, and what factors may be associated TyG index.
Abstract Several mechanisms have been proposed for the beneficial effect of nuts on health. However, Brazil and cashew remain least studied. We aim to evaluate these within an energy-restricted diet body weight, composition, cardiometabolic markers endothelial function in risk women. Brazilian study is a randomised controlled parallel 8-week dietary intervention trial. Forty women were randomly allocated (1) control group: without nuts, n 19 or (2) group (BN-Group): containing daily 45 g (15...
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the association of dietary inflammatory index (DII®) with occurrence cardiovascular events, cardiometabolic risk factors and consumption processed, ultra-processed, unprocessed or minimally processed foods culinary ingredients. Design: This was a cross-sectional study that analysed baseline data from 2359 cardiac patients. Data on socio-demographic, anthropometric, clinical food were collected. Energy-adjusted intake used to calculate DII, classified according...
The American cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) is one of the fruits containing antioxidants in great quantity and high quality. From recent research, it evident that both its products, when consumed chronically or acutely, boost antioxidant effect. Likewise, most studies revealed anti-inflammatory potential polyphenols. Both effects exert direct action mechanisms, by ability polyphenols to remove reactive oxygen species, as well indirect effects, represented these phytochemicals on cell...
Nuts are important sources of antioxidants that combat oxidative stress and improve lipid profile as well vascular function. However, the intake typical Brazilian nuts its acute effect on cardiovascular health needs to be better understood. Thus, present study aimed evaluate a beverage containing cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) Brazil (Bertholletia excelsa H.B.K.) postprandial stress, lipemia, blood pressure adult women aged 20 55 years with cardiometabolic risk. This was an acute,...
Abstract The consumption of food with MUFA has been associated improvement inflammation and oxidative stress in overweight individuals. In the present study, we evaluate effect high-oleic peanut intake within a hypoenergetic diet on inflammatory status markers men. Sixty-four men (BMI 26–35 kg/m 2 , 18–50 years old) participated this randomised controlled study for 4 weeks, allocated into three groups: control (CT, n 22), conventional (CVP, 21) (HOP, 21). They followed (−250 kcal/d; −1045...
The consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPF) has been associated with cardiometabolic risk factors. However, there is scarce literature on the association between UPF consumption, cardiovascular events, and factors in subjects undergoing secondary care for diseases (CVD). Thus, we aimed to evaluate CVD, established CVD. Baseline data from 2,357 participating a Brazilian multicenter study were analysed finding mean 18.7% their energy intake. Higher figures founded an increased presence high...
Bariatric surgery promotes changes in body composition, that can include the loss of bone mineral density (BMD). There is a lack studies on evolution health elderly people who underwent bariatric surgery, general, and when comparing gastric bypass (GB) sleeve gastrectomy (SG) techniques.To evaluate patients with obesity undergoing surgery.This prospective randomized clinical study, was carried out individuals both sexes, ≥65 years, GB or SG met inclusion criteria. Age, gender comorbidities...
Postprandial glycemic control is essential in both healthy and diabetic people, as hyperglycemia predisposes to complications associated with diabetes. The consumption of fiber-rich meals help prevent undesirable changes. This study aimed evaluate the effect one-day chia on response energy intake adults. Single-blind, randomized, crossover design involving adults, normal weight (BMI 18.5–24.9 kg/m2), euglycemic (100 mg/dL), no diabetes family history. They attended laboratory after 10–12 h...
