Epidemiologic studies have reported relationships between maternal high folate and/or low B12 status during pregnancy and greater adiposity insulin resistance in children. The goal of this study was to determine the effects folic acid supplementation (10 mg/kg diet), with (50 diet) without B12, on adult female offspring glucose homeostasis. Female C57BL/6J mice were fed 1 3 diets from weaning throughout breeding, pregnancy, lactation: control (2 diet acid, 50 B12), supplemental no (SFA-B12),...
The Astragalus armatus Willd. plant's phenolic constituent extraction and identification were optimized using the ultrasound-assisted (UAE) method LC-MS/MS analysis, respectively. Additionally, cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC), beta carotene, power, DMSO alcalin, silver nanoparticle (SNP)-based method, phenanthroline, hydroxyl radical tests utilized to assess extract's capacity, while neuroprotective effect was examined in vitro against acetylcholinesterase enzyme. This study...
Introduction The consumption of soft and energy drinks poses a significant risk for non-communicable diseases, such as diabetes heart disease. Studies in Saudi Arabia have reported elevated soft/energy drinks, but nation-wide data is not available. Therefore, this study aims to explore the prevalence its associated factors among representative sample adults. Methods present research secondary analysis 2021 Sharik Diet Health National Survey (SDHNS). Current used on socio-demographics,...
Aspergillus fumigatus is a universal pathogenic mold. Invasive aspergillosis disease can affect persons with weakened immune systems. Natural immunostimulators are very important in improving the response contradiction to various diseases. In current study four varieties of honey samples (nigella, moringa, sidr, and pumpkin honey) which coded as NS, MO, SI, PU honey; were used evaluate diastase invertase enzyme activities. Eight groups mice fed varieties, after injecting half them invasive...
Introduction: Iron deficiency anemia is the most common type of according to World Health Organization. Females are more likely be affected than males. There several factors causing iron anemia, such as increased loss iron, decreased intake and utilization iron. limited research studies evaluating risk that cause among female medical students in Saudi Arabia. For this, study aimed identify prevalence undiagnosed (IDA) young university if there any correlation between IDA including dietary...
Recently, a multiplex ELISA (Quansys Biosciences) was developed that measures ferritin, soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR), retinol-binding protein (RBP), C-reactive (CRP), α¹-acid glycoprotein (AGP), thyroglobulin, and histidine-rich 2. Our primary aim to conduct method-comparison study compare five biomarkers (ferritin, sTfR, RBP, CRP, AGP) measured with the Quansys assay widely-used s-ELISA (VitMin Lab, Willstaett, Germany) use of serum samples from 180 women children Burkina Faso,...
Background: Overweight and obesity (OO) are significant public health issues, many elements, including genetics, epigenetics, sedentary lifestyle, comorbid conditions, psychological environmental pressures, have been linked to OO. More than 2 billion people presently impacted by the global epidemic, which is still advancing relentlessly. It a concern major contributor healthcare costs, because it increases chance of developing conditions such as heart disease, stroke, type diabetes, chronic...
Nutrition surveys suggest that <10% of Canadian adults have inadequate riboflavin intakes. However, biochemical deficiency [erythrocyte glutathione reductase activity coefficient (EGRac) ≥1.40] has been reported in 41% young adult women living Metro Vancouver. Chinese ethnicity comprise >25% Vancouver's population and are postulated to poorer status than those European because they could be less likely consume dairy products fortified wheat.
Background and objectives Dietary nitrate (NO3) plays an important role in human physiological processes. In the past, inorganic NO3 was viewed negatively due to its link with carcinogenic effects, notably nitrosamine formation stomach; yet, current perspectives acknowledge as a potentially beneficial dietary element. Nutrition professionals (NPs) are crucial promoting awareness health academic settings. The study aimed evaluate knowledge of NPs Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, regarding biological...
Growth charts (GCs) are essential tools for monitoring children’s growth and overall health status. The extent to which healthcare professionals in Saudi Arabia (SA) use national international GC, adhere standardized practices remains unclear. This study aimed investigate current GC among practitioners SA. A cross‐sectional was conducted on 193 SA who completed an online questionnaire that assessed their characteristics related the of GC. Descriptive, bivariate, logistic regression analyses...
This study investigated the microbiological and toxic heavy metals contamination in smoked-dried fish, evaluates their health risk implications. Fifteen widely consumed fish species were sampled randomly, aflatoxins, mercury “Hg,” cadmium “Cd” lead “Pb” concentrations evaluated though standard guidelines. The results revealed that flesh Hg level ranged from 0.085–0.258 mg/kg, Cd concentration 0.092–0.204 Pb varied 0.173–0.329 mg/kg; mean freshwater tissue was lower, when compared to levels...
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic forced Saudi Arabia to implement several measures including mandatory home confinement, banning entry many cities, and suspending religious activities.

Date fruit is a functional food endowed with several pharmacological properties resulting from its diversified composition of nutrients and secondary metabolites. It often stored for long periods after harvest; however initial nutritional organoleptic are not always preserved. This study aimed to test the effect three doses γ radiations (0.6, 1.3, 2 kGy) on some Deglet Nour Ghars dates during ten months. pH, titratable acidity, contents total polyphenols, flavonoids ascorbate as well...
