Abstract Intermittent fasting (IF) is associated with enormous metabolic alterations that underpin its diverse health effects. Changes in lipid metabolism, particularly ceramides, and other sphingolipids, are among the most notable of these alterations. This study investigated lipidomic 29–30 days Ramadan diurnal intermittent (RIF) metabolically healthy overweight obese subjects. A prospective cohort 57 adults (70% males, 38.4 ± 11.2 years), an age range 18–58 years was observed prior to at...
Fasting and caloric restriction have been associated with reduced incidence of chronic diseases cancers. These effects attributed to oxidative stress. Since Ramadan intermittent fasting (RIF) has intake, it was hypothesized that RIF would alleviate stress in healthy volunteers. The study designed elucidate the impact on measured by 15-F(2t)-Isoprostane (15FIP). Fifty subjects (23 men 27 women) who intended fast were recruited. Urine serum sampling anthropometric dietary assessments conducted...
This research aims at analyzing the antioxidant concentration and activity of 60 Jordanian crops including fruits, vegetables, wild plants. Antioxidant quantities were analyzed using two analytical methods: total flavonoids Folin Ciocalteu procedures, while activities cupric ion reducing capacity (CUPRAC) as well free radical 2,2-dipicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) methods. The highest polyphenol content (M catechin/100 g fresh crop) was observed in rosemary (101.339 ± 0.501). In addition, flavonoid (mg...
BackgroundNine seasonal fruits were analyzed for antioxidants capacity and content. Scientific information about fruits' antioxidant properties (capacity content) depending on the extraction solvent effect is not widely studied. Therefore, assessment of such remains an interesting useful chore, especially exploring new sources natural antioxidants, functional foods, nutraceuticals. Quantifying content allows screening that are probably involved in prevention and/or treatment oxidative...
The cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in Jordan and many other countries. etiology CVD multifactorial. Dietary factors play significant roles initiation, prevention treatment diseases. aim this study to estimate daily intake nutrients associated with developing among Jordanians, based on Department Statistics household budget survey “JHEIS 2010”, detect any changes these intakes comparison previous JHEIS survey. data 2010 were analyzed for purpose estimating quantity...
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the Glycemic Index (GI) and Insulin (II) values of some types Jordanian honey.Materials Methods: Six honey (citrus, locust pod, Spanish thistle, Christ thorn, mixed flora sugar honeys) were compared with white bread sucrose for their glycemic insulinemic responses, using analysis variance pair t-test.The investigation was done on 14 healthy 9 type 2 diabetic volunteers.Results: In volunteers, all induced lower GI bread.The thorn (45.4%) (50.8%)...
Cereals, mainly bread from plain wheat flour, are the staple food in Jordan. Leavened Arabic is traditional consumed form. Bread also produced other forms by addition of ingredients not present bread. These associated with some nutrient content claims. This study aimed to compare proximate analysis and energy 16 multi-grain breads, white bread, their declared The mean contributions carbohydrate, protein, fat, moisture, ash, fiber were 50.01%, 13.61%, 2.00%, 24.49%, 2.65%, 1.33% weight types,...
Purpose People with food allergies rely to a great extent on restaurant staff have safe meal. The purpose of this paper is acquire novel data evaluate knowledge, attitudes and practices allergy among the restaurant's factors that could be associated these domains. Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional study involving 306 in Amman City, Jordan was conducted using validated self-reported questionnaire. Logistic regression analysis performed identify independently attitude (KAP)....
Introduction: Bread is the staple food in Jordan and there are plenty of bread types advertised as healthy multi-grain breads. These breads have diverse health nutritional effects. This research aimed at studying glycemic insulinemic responses 6 marketed Jordan, addition to local white bread, verifying nutrient claims these Methods: The were obtained 10 participants (5 males 5 females) according standard method. Six test (TB1 – TB6) tested against (WB) a reference. Results: Among all lowest...
Citrus fruits are considered one of the most grown crops worldwide including Jordan with high nutritive and non-nutritive value. The consumption foods that contain natural antioxidants is thought to be an efficient way for reducing risk oxidative stress diseases. Determination antioxidant content capacity allows screening plants probably involved in prevention and/or treatment This study aimed at comparing four fresh Jordanian citrus (namely: orange, lemon, pomelo, mandarin) their (using two...
Chocolate is a preferred food for children and adults. Micronutrient deficiencies are still prevalent worldwide. This study aims to manufacture evaluate type of sugar-free dark chocolate fortified with vitamins minerals. Three types were vitamin D3, B12, iron zinc. The was evaluated in terms chemical composition using FTIR DSC methods, visco-mechanical, sensory stability. studies indicated that the spectrum all chocolates similar control, unfortified chocolate. there no characteristics...
