Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a combination of risk factors for chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). These risk factors include obesity (particularly abdominal obesity), high blood pressure, elevated triglycerides, low high-density lipoprotein (HDL)
This project will examine specific factors in breast milk that may impact infant's gut microbiome development, and thereby impact their adiposity and weight gain in early life. An important early-life experience that could meaningfully impact the development of the gut microbiome, as well as future
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) affect principally the gut, causing symptoms that alter intestinal motility, with a multifactorial etiology. The pharmacological and nutritional treatment varies according to the symptoms and activity of each patient. The most commonly used
The overall objective of this study is to investigate a fermented canola-seaweed (FCS) product in obese human subjects with increased risk of metabolic syndrome (MS). We will study the effects of the FCS on glucose handling and related cardiometabolic traits such as dyslipidemia and low-grade
With the rapid development of China's economy, changes in the residents' living habits and lifestyles, increase in dietary calorie intake, and relative decrease in physical activity, the prevalence of overweight and obesity in China has increased year by year. According to the WGOC diagnostic
Low microbial diversity in the intestine correlates with chronic diseases such as Inflammatory Bowel diseases, colorectal cancer, obesity, Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes and more. The incidence of chronic diseases is greater in the industrialized society consuming a diet low in
Diets containing slowly digestible carbohydrates (SDCs), in the form of starch-entrapped microspheres that digest into the ileum, were previously shown to reduce food intake in a diet-induced obese rat model by activating the gut-brain axis. These results suggested that SDCs trigger the ileal brake,
The incidence of both obesity and diabetes are on a staggering rise. Many studies suggest that by 2030, 40-50% of the population will be obese. The prevalence of gestational diabetes (GDM) is also increasing, and was recently reported to be 9%. GDM increases risk of obesity and impaired glucose
The investigators will collect breast milk samples at four visits, at 2-3 days after birth (colostrum) and at 1-3.4, 3.5-5.9, and 6-8.5 months of lactation from well-nourished mothers age ≥18 to ≤40 years, in a systematic, identical way in four countries. The four sites are: Copenhagen, Denmark;
Obesity has been discussed as one of the major diseases that require scientific and technological innovations for its control is obesity and studies indicate that microbiota of obese patients have a high level of intestinal microflora imbalance, with serious consequences such as loss of digestive
With age, several important alterations occur within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, that are responsible for altered microbial environment (e.g. reduced diversity and number of beneficial bifidobacteria and higher populations of enterobacteria and clostridia).
Research over the past two decades
Cellodextrins are small-chain, non-absorbable, oligosaccharides that are produced from the incomplete hydrolysis of insoluble cellulose. Like other oligosaccharides they escape digestion in the small intestine as the human gut lacks the enzymes required to hydrolyse the β-links formed among the
Before academic examination, letter to parents, informed consent and volunteer questionnaire are released to school children and their guardians. We tell the volunteers and their guardians what about this study and invite them to participate this study. Only the volunteers and guardians signature on
