Ghanim H, Mohanty P, Pathak R, Chaudhuri A, Sia CL, Dandona P. OBJECTIVE: We have previously shown that 300 kcal from glucose intake induces a significant increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and nuclear [...]
“Cancer metabolism” or stress metabolism typically involves an excess of the adaptive hormones, resulting from an imbalance of the demands made on the organism and the resources available to the organism. Excessive stimulation depletes glucose and produces lactic acid, and causes cortisol to increase, causing a shift to the consumption of fat and protein rather [...]
Low dairy intake in early childhood predicts excess body fat gain. Suboptimal dairy intakes during preschool in this cohort were associated with greater gains in body fat throughout childhood. Calcium and body fat in peripubertal girls: cross-sectional and longitudinal observations In this group of girls, an inverse cross-sectional association between calcium intake and body fat [...]
