Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver condition that affects a sizable population of the developed world.

Key Points: 
  • Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a chronic liver condition that affects a sizable population of the developed world.
  • A deeper analysis revealed that pioglitazone in fact increased the Lactobacillus species of bacteria in the gut, which in turn were generating the metabolites.
  • Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and fibrosis: NAFLD is a chronic form of liver disease that affects 25% of the world's population—most likely people who do not consume much alcohol.
  • A gut microbial metabolite of linoleic acid ameliorates liver fibrosis by inhibiting TGF–β signaling in hepatic stellate cells.

Wednesday, December 28, 2022

SAN DIEGO, Dec. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- With mounting awards, burgeoning science, and exponential growth, fatty15 is poised to be a formidable challenger to the omega-3 supplement industry in 2023.

Key Points: 
  • Scientists discovered that C15:0 (pentadecanoic acid) is the first essential fatty acid to be found since omega-3, which was over 90 years ago, and published their findings in Nature's Scientific Reports during May 2020.
  • Essential fatty acids (EFAs) are defined as nutrients that we need to maintain baseline health, but our bodies don't naturally produce.
  • Today, there are only three known EFAs: alpha-linolenic acid ( omega-3), linoleic acid (omega-6), and now C15:0 (an odd-chain saturated fatty acid).
  • "In doing so, we not only provide the absolute highest quality essential fatty acid supplement for consumers, but we hope to raise the bar for the omega-3 industry, too."

PISTACHIOS ARE A POWERHOUSE OF NUTRIENTS

Monday, November 7, 2022

FRESNO, Calif., Nov. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Foods rich in nutrients with antioxidant properties are regularly encouraged as part of a healthy lifestyle, and research suggests that a diet high in antioxidant-rich foods may even help to reduce the risk of premature death.1 While  fruits and vegetables are often thought of as high-antioxidant foods, a new study conducted by Cornell University and published in the journal, Nutrients, produced surprising results2.  Pistachios have a very high antioxidant capacity, among the highest when compared to values reported in research of many foods commonly known for their antioxidant capacity, such as blueberries, pomegranates, cherries, and beets.3,4,5

Key Points: 
  • The researchers used the two different methods to measure the antioxidant potential of pistachios Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) and Cellular Antioxidant Activity (CAA) and found that pistachios have very high level of antioxidant activity.
  • While these tests don't prove a specific health outcome, they suggest a high level of antioxidant compounds within pistachios.
  • Pistachios are high in copper and manganese and are a source of selenium, zinc, riboflavin and Vitamin E. All these nutrients contribute to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
  • "The results of this study confirm the high antioxidant potential of pistachios, which is great news for those looking to add more whole foods with antioxidant nutrients to their diet."

Companies In The Parenteral Nutrition Market Are Launching Olive Oil-Based Parental Nutrition

Thursday, September 29, 2022

LONDON, Sept. 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Olive oil-based parenteral nutrition products are gaining popularity in the parenteral nutrition market trends. The companies in the parenteral nutrition market are focusing on innovating new products such as olive oil-based parental nutrition. The olive oil provides effective nutrition, is associated with fewer infections, and confers greater ease-of-use than other oils such as soybean oil. Soybean oil-based emulsions high in linoleic acid used in parenteral nutrition (PN) could interfere with immune function and may increase the risk of septic complications. Olive oil-based emulsions, high in oleic acid, could have fewer immune effects. For example, in August 2019, Baxter International Inc., a US-based healthcare company launched Olimel N12, a new olive oil-based parental nutrition formulation to meet high protein needs in critically ill patients. The ready-to-use formulation combines a high protein formulation with low glucose content, resulting in the lowest energy to protein ratio.

Key Points: 
  • LONDON, Sept. 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --Olive oil-based parenteral nutrition products are gaining popularity in the parenteral nutrition market trends.
  • The companies in the parenteral nutrition market are focusing on innovating new products such as olive oil-based parental nutrition.
  • As per the parenteral nutrition market analysis , an increase in the geriatric population is expected to contribute to the growth of the parental nutrition market.
