Antioxidant supplements and semen parameters: An evidence based review
Many studies have focused on male infertility. There is limited evidence about the influence of nutrition on quality of semen. Approximately, 30-80% of infertility cases are caused by oxidative stress and decreased level of seminal total antioxidant capacity. This study was aimed to review the effects of oral antioxidant supplements on improving major semen parameters such as sperm concentration, motility, morphology, DNA ...
Potential Benefits of Dietary Fibre Intervention in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Abstract: Intestinal dysbiosis is thought to be an important cause of disease progression and the gastrointestinal symptoms experienced in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Inflammation appears to be a major contributor in perpetuating a dysregulated gut microbiota. Although current drug therapies can significantly induce and maintain disease remission, there is no cure for these diseases. ...
Do ginger-derived nanoparticles represent an attractive treatment strategy for inflammatory bowel diseases?
Inflammatory bowel disease treatment challenges Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a broad term that describes conditions with chronic,
recurring immune responses and inflammation of the GI tract, which result in severe abdominal cramping and diarrhea. The two
most common forms of IBD are ulcerative colitis (UC), in which inflammation affects the large intestine, and Crohnâ...
Why Are Omics Technologies Important to Understanding the Role of Nutrition in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases?
Abstract: For many years, there has been confusion about the role that nutrition plays in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). It is apparent that good dietary advice for one individual may prove inappropriate for another. As with many diseases, genome-wide a ssociation studies across large collaborative groups have been important in revealing the role of genetics in IBD, with more ...
The Specific Carbohydrate Diet for Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Case Series
THE PATHOGENESIS OF INFLAmmatory bowel disease (IBD) is thought to be multifactorial, involving a genetically susceptible
individual being exposed to a yetto-be identified environmental trigger or set of triggers. There is growing evidence that IBD may be a disease of Westernization associated with diets high in refined sugars; bread and cereals; proteins, especially dairy; and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty ...
The Effect of anti-TNFα Induction Therapy on the Nutritional Status and Dietary Intake in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Background & Aims: Patients suffering from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at a high risk of malnutrition and retain an altered body composition. We hypothesized that anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) alpha therapy may improve dietary intake and have a beneficial influence on body composition in these patients.
Role of Diet in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is steadily in the rise in Western as well as in developing countries paralleling the increase of westernized diets, characterized by high protein and fat as well as excessive sugar intake, with less vegetables and fiber. An interesting hypothesis is that environmental (food-) triggered changes of the intestinal microbiome might cause a proinflammatory state preceding the development of IBD. ...
Oral chondroitin sulfate and prebiotics for the treatment of canine Inflammatory Bowel Disease: a randomized, controlled clinical trial.
Abstract
Background: Canine inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic enteropathy of unknown etiology, although microbiome dysbiosis, genetic susceptibility, and dietary and/or environmental factors are hypothesized to be involved in its pathogenesis. Since some of the current therapies are associated with severe side effects, novel therapeutic ...
