Abstract Objective: To assess changes in daily habits, food choices and lifestyle of adult Brazilians before during the COVID-19 pandemic. Design: This observational study was carried out with Brazilian adults through an online questionnaire 5 months after social distance measures implementation. The McNemar, McNemar–Bowker Wilcoxon tests were used to investigate differences COVID pandemic period, adopting statistical significance P < 0·05. Setting: Brazil. Participants: Totally, 1368...
Background: Insects like Gryllus assimilis have an excellent nutritional profile, including iron. However, the bioavailability of this iron and its effects on intestinal health oxidative balance remain unclear. To enhance acceptance, insects can be used in powder form combined with common flours. Objective: This study evaluates powder, alone or soy flour, bioavailability, health, rodents. Methods: Using hemoglobin depletion/repletion method, 32 male Wistar rats were divided into four groups:...
The study aimed to assess the eating behavior [uncontrolled (UE), emotional (EE), and cognitive restraint (CR)], perceived stress, independently associated factors among Brazilians during COVID-19 pandemic. An online survey was conducted data about 1,368 participants were evaluated. Multivariate logistic regression models performed identify (socioeconomic, lifestyle, habits data) with behaviors stress. Working in frontline (OR = 2.19), increased food delivery 1.49), intake 1.48), number of...
The behavioral changes that arose from quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic may have impacted weight of people. This study aims investigate incidence and predictors gain during period.An online survey was performed five months after social distance measures implementation. Participants recorded their current usual before lockdown. A multivariate logistic regression model performed.Data on 1334 participants were evaluated (33.6y, 79.8% females), 58.8% gained (3.0 kg; 0.1 30.0 kg)....
A asma, uma doença inflamatória crônica comum na infância, é frequentemente associada à exposição a alérgenos e caracteriza-se por hiper-responsividade brônquica, produção excessiva de muco infiltração células inflamatórias. Teorias sugerem relação entre o consumo leite agravamento da no entanto, evidências científicas não confirmam essa associação. O objetivo desta revisão foi analisar efeito do produtos lácteos sobre risco desenvolvimento asma ou quadro. Este estudo revisou 14 artigos...
(1) Background: Exhaustive exercise can induce muscle damage. The consumption of nutritional compounds with the ability to positively influence oxidative balance and an exacerbated inflammatory process has been previously studied. However, little is known about value curcumin (CCM) when mixed whey protein concentrate (WPC). This study was developed evaluate effect CCM-added WPC on control histopathological consequences in tissue submitted exhaustive swimming test (ET). (2) Methods: 48...
This work aimed to evaluate the effects of whey protein concentrate (WPC) admixtured curcumin on metabolic control, inflammation and oxidative stress in Wistar rats submitted exhaustive exercise. A total forty-eight male were divided into six experimental groups (n 8): standard diet group (AIN-93M), exhaustion test (AIN-93M ET), WPC (WPC + CCM), CCM subjected (CCM ET). The swimming was performed after 4 weeks experiment. consumption as well isolated did not alter biometric measurements,...
Spray drying was used to develop two products: whey protein concentrate (WPC) and admixture of microencapsulated curcumin (TWPC). We aimed characterize the concentrate's technological attributes verify whether lactose remains in an amorphous state even after addition turmeric extract containing curcumin, a compound with antioxidant anti-inflammatory properties. Analysis morphology, particle size distribution, Raman spectroscopy, sorption isotherms colorimetry were carried out. WPC TWPC...
Purpose This study aims to identify comfort food (CF) consumption and its associated factors during the pandemic period. The also involves an online survey conducted five months after quarantine started in Brazil. Design/methodology/approach Data on lifestyle, eating habits anthropometric data were collected before pandemic, differences these analyzed. Univariate multivariate logistic regression models performed predictors of CF by gender. Findings A total 1,363 individuals included sample,...
Purpose The purpose of this study is to describe the prevalence a sedentary lifestyle (<150 min physical exercise/week) and associated factors behavior in Brazil. Design/methodology/approach An observational was conducted through an online questionnaire August–September 2020 (5.5 months after beginning pandemic country). Socioeconomic, lifestyle, anthropometric, dietary perceived stress data were evaluated as possible related multiple logistic regression analysis. Findings A total 1,347...
The consumption of unconventional food plants (UFP) can be a strategy to promote and nutritional security, for which it is necessary know their composition. objective this study was analyze the value antioxidant activity ora-pro-nobis, tamarillo bananas biomass (prata nanica). Using standard methodologies (AOAC, 2005), following compounds were analyzed in triplicate: protein, lipids, carbohydrate, calories, moisture, total fiber content, calcium, iron, vitamin C (by titrimetry), carotenoids...
Em meados da década de 70, a partir uma emenda constitucional, as mulheres passaram participar mais do ambiente esportivo. Desde então, houve maior atenção para fisiologia feminina nesse meio, tornando relevante discutir temas sobre melhora no desempenho dessas atletas, tal como o uso anticoncepcionais.
Os exossomos são vesículas extracelulares liberadas por todas as células do corpo e interferem na comunicação intercelular, além de conseguir transportar liberar compostos biologicamente ativos, como medicamentos. Nesse sentido, busca tratamentos inovadores eficazes, a dermatologia analisa o potencial dessas no tratamento patologias área estética.
Background Social distancing used as a measure to contain the spread of SARS-CoV-2, led series changes in eating behavior, including food craving.Purpose We aimed evaluate craving and its associated factors among women men during COVID-19 pandemic.Methods An online questionnaire was conducted, containing data about possible factors.Results 1363 individuals were included survey. Food shown 46.0% respondents. Among women, increased or reduced weight, working/studying pandemic without changes,...
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the most severe global public health crisis last century. SARS-CoV-2 emerged China December 2019, and since then, it been quickly spreading around world. After Europe North America, virus arrived Latin America. Among developing countries, Brazil affected by causalities, which is a concern, social economic disparities may favor its severity. In an attempt to reduce transmission, measures have implemented states, despite lack of assistance from Brazilian...
