This study offers a comprehensive analysis of the anthropometric and nutritional status among Serbian adults aged 18-64 years, using data from EFSA EU Menu food consumption survey conducted between 2017 2022. Based on nationally representative sample 1139 participants, this research utilized validated 24 h dietary recalls measurements. The results indicate significant imbalances, characterized by heavy reliance energy-dense foods, such as grains, fats, meat, with an underrepresentation...
Abstract Background and Objective Near‐infrared low‐level laser (NIR‐LLL) irradiation penetrates scalp skull can reach superficial layers of the cerebral cortex. It was shown to improve outcome acute stroke in both animal human studies. In this study we evaluated whether transcranial stimulation (TLS) with NIR‐LLL modulate excitability motor cortex (M1) as measured by magnetic (TMS). Methods TLS applied for 5 minutes over representation right first dorsal interosseal muscle (FDI) left...
<p style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 0;">The present cross-over study investigated whether a half-marathon race might impose changes in lipid profile, muscle function, hematological parameters, and oxidative status 10 amateur male runners polyphenol-rich aronia juice may counteract these potential alterations.</p> margin-top: 0; 0;">Subjects (age 30.8 ± 2.3 years) ran simulated (21.1 km), after they had...
<p style="text-align: justify;">Lumbar disc herniation, a growing condition, significantly impacts work productivity, mental health, and quality of life. It alters functional movement patterns causes improper compensatory body positioning, leading to muscle dysfunction. Physical exercise is key treatment for chronic cases. This case study examined 37-year-old male with moderate triple lumbar herniation degenerative changes at L3-L4, L4-L5, L5-S1. The subject...
Long-distance running, especially in non-professional runners, can increase cardiac arrest risk by enhancing platelet activation and aggregation. Polyphenols exert cardioprotective effects positively influencing function. This study aimed to examine the acute of polyphenol-rich aronia juice consumption, before simulation a half-marathon race, on aggregation with leukocytes recreational runners. In this crossover study,10 healthy male runners (age 30.8 ± 2.3 years) consumed breakfast 200 mL...
Background and objectives: Increasing rates of adult overweight (60.7% population) diet-related cardiovascular diseases (52% in Serbia alarmingly call for a change dietary patterns. To be able to identify problems solutions, harmonized comparable food consumption data are needed. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) provided support guidance, through the EU Menu program, conducting Serbian National Consumption Survey on adults from 10 74 years old, including pregnant women vegetarians...
Fatty acids (FAs) composition and desaturase activities can be altered in different metabolic conditions, but the adiposity-independent associations with clinical biochemical indicators of cardiometabolic risk are still unclear. This study aimed to analyze FAs estimated anthropometric, clinical, non-diabetic Serbian women, investigate if these were independent level adiposity other confounders.In 76 non-diabetic, otherwise healthy aged 24-68 years, or without syndrome obesity (BMI=23.6±5.6...
The present study examined the effects of aerobic training alone or combined with chokeberry juice on membrane lipid status and activities antioxidant enzymes in non-athlete women. Participants were randomly assigned into group performing three times per week; chokeberry-training followed same regime additionally consumed 100 ml day control neither trained nor juice. Blood samples collected at baseline end eight-week-long intervention. Membrane fatty acids’ composition was analyzed by...
Aronia melanocarpa berries and their products are rich dietary sources of antioxidant compounds with polyphenolic structures, including anthocyanins, flavonoids, procyanidins phenolic acids. Physical activity (PA) can lead to oxidative stress reduced thiol group human serum albumin (HSA-SH). HSA-SH is the key component system for maintaining homeostasis. In this study, main goal was examine effect aronia juice supplementation before a race on homeostasis in 10 recreational runners, single...
Physical activity could lead to dehydration and post-exercise proteinuria. In several animal studies, it has been noticed that aronia juice consumption shows favorable effects on the kidney function. Therefore, primary aim of this study was examine influence acute supplementation before simulated half-marathon races serum protein profiles reflect both changes induced by proteinuria in ten recreational runners. The were determined (T0), 15 min (T1), 1 h (T2), 24 after race (T3), presented as...
Background and objectives: Since the beginning of 20th century, more than 75% genetic diversity has been lost. As a result this homogenization, thousands cultivated wild food plants are no longer used, although they have high nutritional value. This work aims to develop recipes for new dishes bring biodiversity plate in way that consumers desire. Methods: Prototypes foods were prepared experimental kitchen. Each recipe was blind-tasted, evaluated, ranked according its organoleptic quality...
Intensive physical activity (PA) can lead to proteinuria and, consequently, serum protein profiles in athletes. Therefore, the aim of this study was investigate effects acute aronia juice consumption before a simulated half-marathon race on recreational runners. The pilot designed as single-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study, with 10 male participants who consumed (containing 1.3 g polyphenols) or placebo race. blood levels total proteins, albumin, non-albumin fractions gamma, beta,...
