Associations of fats and carbohydrate intake with cardiovascular disease and mortality in 18 countries from five continents (PURE): a prospective cohort study - The Lancet

http://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(17)32252-3/fulltext

"Interpretation

High carbohydrate intake was associated with higher risk of total mortality, whereas total fat and individual types of fat were related to lower total mortality. Total fat and types of fat were not associated with cardiovascular disease, myocardial infarction, or cardiovascular disease mortality, whereas saturated fat had an inverse association with stroke. Global dietary guidelines should be reconsidered in light of these findings."

"A group of 39 highly rated male members of the German Chess Federation were enlisted to play more than 3000 15-minute games against computers matched to their skill levels while taking modafinil, methylphenidate, or caffeine. The researchers reported that players taking modafinil and methylphenidate won more games overall, though they pondered their moves longer, causing them to sometimes lose on time."

"The positive association surprised Lieb. “Our hypothesis [had been] that it’s not possible to enhance subjects who are already working at top performance,” he said."

"Conclusions

Optimization of dosing, timing, and scheduling of the press-pulse therapeutic strategy will facilitate the eradication of tumor cells with minimal patient toxicity. This therapeutic strategy can be used as a framework for the design of clinical trials for the non-toxic management of most cancers."

The relationship between peripheral blood mononuclear cells telomere length and diet - unexpected effect of red meat

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4944490/


Conclusions

Unexpected correlation of telomere length with the frequency of consumption of red meat indicates the need for further in-depth research and may undermine some accepted concepts of adverse effects of this diet on the health status and life longevity.

Gut-Microbiota-Brain Axis and Its Effect on Neuropsychiatric Disorders With Suspected Immune Dysregulation. - PubMed - NCBI

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/26046241/





FINDINGS: Various afferent or efferent pathways are involved in the MGB axis. Antibiotics, environmental and infectious agents, intestinal neurotransmitters/neuromodulators, sensory vagal fibers, cytokines, and essential metabolites all convey information to the central nervous system about the intestinal state. Conversely, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, the central nervous system regulatory areas of satiety, and neuropeptides released from sensory nerve fibers affect the gut microbiota composition directly or through nutrient availability. Such interactions seem to influence the pathogenesis of a number of disorders in which inflammation is implicated, such as mood disorder, autism-spectrum disorders, attention-deficit hypersensitivity disorder, multiple sclerosis, and obesity.

Vegetable Oils Consumption as One of the Leading Cause of Cancer and Heart Disease | Niknamian | International Science and Investigation journal

http://isijournal.info/journals/index.php/ISIJ/article/view/252/197



Abstract

This review takes a deep look at increases in the incidence of cancer and heart disease after
the introduction of industrial vegetable oils in the world. Most vegetable oils are highly
processed and refined products, which completely lack the essential nutrients. Omega-6
Linoleic acid from vegetable oils increases oxidative stress in the body of humans, contributing
to endothelial dysfunction and heart disease. The consumption of these harmful oils which are
high in mega-6 polyunsaturated fats results in changing the structure of cell membrane which
contribute to increasing inflammation and the incidence of cancer.
