  • A low dose of daily licorice intake affects renin, aldosterone, and home blood pressure in a randomized crossover trial
  • 2024
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - : ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 119:3, s. 682-691

    • BackgroundLicorice, through the effects of glycyrrhizic acid (GA), raises blood pressure (BP). The World Health Organization has suggested that 100 mg GA/d would be unlikely to cause adverse effects, but of 13 previously published studies none have been randomized and controlled and independently quantified the GA content.ObjectiveOur aim was to analyze the effects on home BP of a daily licorice intake containing 100 mg GA.MethodsHealthy volunteers were randomly assigned to start with either licorice or a control product in a nonblinded, 2 × 2 crossover study. Home BP was measured daily, and blood samples were collected at the end of each 2-wk period.ResultsThere were 28 participants and no dropouts. The median age was 24.0 y (interquartile range 22.8–27.0 y). During the licorice compared with control intake period, the systolic home BP increased [mean difference: 3.1 mm Hg (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.8, 5.4 mm Hg) compared with −0.3 mm Hg (95% CI: −1.8, 1.3 mm Hg); P = 0.018] and renin and aldosterone were suppressed [mean change: −30.0% (95% CI: −56.7%, −3.3%) compared with 15.8% (95% CI: −12.8%, 44.4%); P = 0.003; and −45.1% (95% CI: −61.5%, −28.7%) compared with 8.2% (95% CI: −14.7%, 31.1%); P <0.001, respectively]. In the quartile of participants with the most pronounced suppression of renin and aldosterone, N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide concentration increased during the licorice compared with control period [mean change: 204.1% (95% CI: −11.6%, 419.7%) compared with 72.4% (95% CI: −52.2%, 197.1%); P = 0.016].ConclusionsWe found licorice to be more potent than previously known, with significant increases in BP, after a daily intake of only 100 mg GA. Thus, the safe limit of intake of this substance might need to be reconsidered.

  • The European perspective on vitamin E : Current knowledge and future research
  • 2002
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 76:4, s. 703-716

    • Vitamin E is indispensible for reproduction in female rats. In humans, vitamin E deficiency primarily causes neurologic dysfunctions, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Because of its antioxidative properties, vitamin E is believed to help prevent diseases associated with oxidative stress, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic inflammation, and neurologic disorders. However, recent clinical trials undertaken to prove this hypothesis failed to verify a consistent benefit. Given these findings, a group of European scientists met to analyze the most recent knowledge of vitamin E function and metabolism. An overview of their discussions is presented in this article, which includes considerations of the mechanisms of absorption, distribution, and metabolism of different forms of vitamin E, including the a-tocopherol transfer protein and a-tocopherol-associated proteins, the mechanism of tocopherol side-chain degradation and its putative interaction with drug metabolism, the usefulness of tocopherol metabolites as biomarkers, and the novel mechanisms of the antiatherosclerotic and anticarcinogenic properties of vitamin E, which involve modulation of cellular signaling, transcriptional regulation, and induction of apoptosis. Clinical trials were analyzed on the basis of the selection of subjects, the stage of disease, and the mode of intake, dosage, and chemical form of vitamin E. In addition, the scarce knowledge on the role of vitamin E in reproduction was summarized. In conclusion, the scientists agreed that the functions of vitamin E were underestimated if one considered only its antioxidative properties. Future research on this essential vitamin should focus on what makes it essential for humans, why the body apparently utilizes a-tocopherol preferentially, and what functions other forms of vitamin E have.

  • Body-composition development during early childhood and energy expenditure in response to physical activity in 1.5-y-old children
  • 2012
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - Bethesda, USA : American Society for Nutrition. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 96:3, s. 567-573
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: The prevalence of childhood overweight and obesity has increased recently, but the mechanisms involved are incompletely known. Previous research has shown a correlation between the percentage of total body fat (TBF) and physical activity level (PAL). However, the PAL values used may involve a risk of spurious correlations because they are often based on predicted rather than measured estimates of resting energy metabolism. lObjectives: We studied the development of body composition during early childhood and the relation between the percentage of TBF and PAL on the basis of the measured resting energy metabolism.Design: Body composition was previously measured in 108 children when they were 1 and 12 wk old. When 44 of these children (21 girls and 23 boys) were 1.5 y old, their total energy expenditure and TBF were assessed by using the doubly labeled water method. Resting energy metabolism, which was assessed by using indirect calorimetry, was used to calculate PAL.Results: Significant correlations were shown for TBF (r = 0.32, P = 0.035) and fat-free mass (r = 0.34, P = 0.025) between values (kg) assessed at 12 wk and 1.5 y of age. For TBF (kg) a significant interaction (P = 0.035) indicated a possible sex difference. PAL at 1.5 y was negatively correlated with the percentage of TBF (r = -0.40, P = 0.0076) and the increase in the percentage of TBF between 12 wk and 1.5 y (r = 0.38, P = 0.0105).Conclusions: The results indicate that body fatness and physical activity interact during early childhood and thereby influence obesity risk. Our results are based on a small sample, but nevertheless, they motivate additional studies in boys compared with girls regarding the development of body composition during early life.

  • Glutamate Infusion Reduces Myocardial Dysfunction after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting According to NT-proBNP: Summary of 2 Randomized Controlled Trials (GLUTAmate for Metabolic Intervention in Coronary Surgery [GLUTAMICS I-II])
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - : ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 118:5, s. 930-937
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Glutamate is reported to enhance the recovery of oxidative metabolism and contractile function of the heart after ischemia. The effect appears to be blunted in diabetic hearts. Elevated plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) reflects myocardial dysfunction. In the GLUTAmate for Metabolic Intervention in Coronary Surgery (GLUTAMICS) II trial, the proportion of patients with diabetes had nearly doubled to 47% compared with the cohort used for sample size estimation, and a significant effect on the postoperative rise in NT-proBNP was only observed in patients without diabetes. Objective: We aimed to summarize the pooled NT-proBNP results from both GLUTAMICS trials and address the impact of diabetes. Methods: Data from 2 prospective, randomized, double-blind multicenter trials with similar inclusion criteria and endpoints were pooled. Patients underwent a coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) +/- valve procedure and had a left-ventricular ejection fraction of <= 0.30 or a European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation II (EuroSCORE II) of >= 3.0 with at least 1 cardiac risk factor. Intravenous infusion of 0.125 M L-glutamic acid or saline at 1.65 mL/kg/h was started 10-20 min before reperfusion and continued for 150 min. The primary endpoint was the difference between pre-operative and day 3 postoperative NT-proBNP levels. Results: A total of 451 patients, 224 receiving glutamate and 227 controls, fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Glutamate was associated with a reduced primary endpoint (5344 +/- 5104 ng/L and 6662 +/- 5606 ng/L in glutamate and control groups, respectively; P = 0.01). Postoperative mortality at <= 30 d was 0.9% and 3.5% (P = 0.11), whereas stroke at <= 24 h was 0.4% and 2.6% in glutamate and control groups, respectively (P = 0.12). No adverse events related to glutamate were observed. A significant interaction regarding the primary endpoint was only detected between glutamate and insulin -treated diabetes groups (P = 0.04). Among patients without insulin-treated diabetes, the primary endpoint was 5047 +/- 4705 ng/L and 7001 +/- 5830 ng/L in the glutamate and control groups, respectively (P = 0.001). Conclusions: Infusion of glutamate reduced the postoperative rise in NT-proBNP after CABG in medium-to high-risk patients. A significantly blunted effect was observed only in insulin-treated patients with diabetes. Clinical trial details: This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02592824.

  • Effects of weaning cereals with different phytate contents on hemoglobin, iron stores, and serum zinc: a randomized intervention in infants from 6 to 12 mo of age
  • 2003
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 78:1, s. 168-175
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Weaning foods frequently contain phytate, an inhibitor of iron and zinc absorption, which may contribute to the high prevalence of iron and zinc deficiency seen in infancy. Objective: The objective was to investigate whether either an extensive reduction in the phytate content of infant cereals or the use of milk-based, iron-fortified infant formula would improve iron and zinc status in infants. Design: In a double-blind design, infants (n = 300) were randomly assigned to 3 cereal groups from 6 to 12 mo of age: commercial milk-based cereal drink (MCD) and porridge (CC group), phytate-reduced MCD and phytate-reduced porridge (PR group), or milk-based infant formula and porridge with the usual phytate content (IF group). Venous blood samples were collected at 6 and 12 mo. Dietary intake was recorded monthly. After the intervention, 267 infants remained in the analysis. Results: Hemoglobin concentrations of less than 110 g/L, serum ferritin concentrations of less than 12 mug/L, and serum zinc concentrations of less than 10.7 mumol/L had overall prevalences at baseline and 12 mo of 28% and 15%, 9% and 18%, and 22% and 27%, respectively. After the intervention, there were no significant differences in any measure of iron or zinc status between the CC and the PR groups. However, hemoglobin was significantly higher (120 g/L compared with 117 g/L; P = 0.012) and the prevalence of anemia was lower (13% compared with 23%; P = 0.06) in the PR group than in the IF group, which could be explained by differences in daily iron intake between the 2 groups. Conclusion: Extensive reduction in the phytate content of weaning cereals had little long-term effect on the iron and zinc status of Swedish infants.

  • Changes in basal metabolic rate during pregnancy in relation to changes in body weight and composition, cardiac output, insulin-like growth factor I, and thyroid hormones and in relation to fetal growth
  • 2005
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 81:3, s. 678-685
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: The total energy cost of pregnancy is largely due to an elevated basal metabolic rate (BMR). Large variations in the BMR response to pregnancy have been reported, but the factors associated with this variability are incompletely known.Objective: The objective was to identify factors associated with variability in the BMR response to pregnancy.Design: In 22 healthy women, BMR, body weight (BW), total body fat (TBF), fat-free mass (FFM), circulatory variables, serum concentrations of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), and thyroid hormones were measured before pregnancy and in gestational weeks 14 and 32. BMR and BW were also measured in gestational weeks 8, 20, and 35. Fetal weight was estimated in gestational week 31.Results: In gestational week 14, the increase in BMR correlated significantly with the corresponding increase in BW and with the prepregnancy percentage of TBF. Together these variables explained ≈40% of the variability in the BMR response. In gestational week 32, the increase in BMR correlated significantly with the corresponding changes in BW, TBF, FFM, IGF-I, cardiac output, and free triiodothyronine. The increase in BW in combination with fetal weight or with the elevated concentration of IGF-I in serum explained ≈60% of the variability in the increase in BMR.Conclusions: Weight gain and the prepregnancy percentage of TBF—ie, factors related to the maternal nutritional situation—are important factors with regard to the variability in the BMR response to pregnancy. Thus, it is important to consider the nutritional situation before and during gestation when assessing pregnancy energy requirements.

  • Hydration of fat-free mass in healthy women with special reference to the effect of pregnancy
  • 2004
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 80:4, s. 960-965
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Knowledge of the biological variability of the hydration factor (HF), ie, the ratio between total body water and fat-free mass, is important when calculating total body fat by means of the commonly used two-component model, which is based on estimates of body weight and total body water. The effect of pregnancy on the biological variability of HF, and consequently on the precision of the two-component model, is unknown.Objective: Our goal was to assess the effect of pregnancy on HF and its biological variability.Design: HF was assessed in 33 women planning pregnancy and in 17 of these women during gestational weeks 14 and 32 and 2 wk postpartum. HF was calculated by using estimates of body weight, total body water obtained by means of deuterium dilution, and body volume measured by using underwater weighing.Results: In the 17 women who became pregnant, HF was 0.718 ± 0.023, 0.723 ± 0.031, 0.747 ± 0.017, and 0.734 ± 0.020 before pregnancy, in gestational week 14, in gestational week 32, and 2 wk postpartum, respectively. The biological variability represented ≈2% of average HF in the nonpregnant state. The corresponding figure was >3% in gestational week 14 but ≤1.7% in gestational week 32.Conclusion: The two-component model for assessing body fat is as appropriate during late gestation as it is in the nonpregnant state, although its precision may be impaired when applied during the first part of pregnancy.

  • Comparison of the impact of bovine milk beta-casein variants on digestive comfort in females self-reporting dairy intolerance : a randomized controlled trial
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - : Oxford University Press. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 111:1, s. 149-160
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Lactose malabsorption (LM) is a major cause of digestive discomfort from dairy products. Recently. a role for bovine beta-casein A1 has been proposed. Objectives: We examined whether there are distinct symptoms of digestive discomfort due to either lactose or differing bovine beta-casein types. Methods: Women (n = 40; age: 25.2 +/- 05 y) with self-reported varying dairy tolerance underwent a 50-g lactose challenge. Based on postchallenge LM and digestive discomfort, participants were classified as either lactose intolerant (LI; n = 10, self-reported intolerant, diagnosed lactose intolerant), nonlactose dairy intolerant (NLDI; n = 20, self-reported intolerant, diagnosed lactose tolerant), or dairy tolerant (DT: n = 10, self-reported tolerant, diagnosed lactose tolerant). In a double-blinded randomized sequence, participants consumed 750 mL conventional milk (CON; containing Al and A2 beta-casein and lactose), a2 Milk (A2M; exclusively containing A2 beta-casein with lactose), or lactose-free conventional milk (LF-CON; containing Al and A2 beta-casein without lactose). Subjective digestive symptoms and breath hydrogen (measuring LM) were recorded regularly over 3 h, and further ad hoc digestive symptoms over 12 h. Results: LI subjects experienced prolonged digestive discomfort with CON milk. A2M reduced (P amp;lt; 0.05) some symptoms (nausea: A2M 8 +/- 3 mm compared with CON 15 +/- 3mm: fecal urgency: A2M 4 +/- 1 compared with CON 10 +/- 3 mm), and attenuated the rise in breath hydrogen over 3 h, relative to CON milk (A2M 59 +/- 23 compared with CON 98 +/- 25 ppm at 150 min; P amp;lt; 0.01). In contrast, NLDI subjects experienced rapid-onset, transient symptoms (abdominal distension, bloating, and flatulence) without increased breath hydrogen, irrespective of milk type. Conclusions: In LI individuals, LM and digestive comfort with lactose-containing milks was improved with milk containing exclusively A2 beta-casein. Furthermore, self-reported dairy intolerance without LM (NLDI) is characterized by early-onset digestive discomfort following milk ingestion, irrespective of lactose content or beta-casein type.

  • Mobile-based intervention intended to stop obesity in preschool-aged children: the MINISTOP randomized controlled trial
  • 2017
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. - : Elsevier BV. - 0002-9165 .- 1938-3207. ; 105:6, s. 1327-1335
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Traditional obesity prevention programs are time-and cost-intensive. Mobile phone technology has been successful in changing behaviors and managing weight; however, to our knowledge, its potential in young children has yet to be examined. Objective: We assessed the effectiveness of a mobile health (mHealth) obesity prevention program on body fat, dietary habits, and physical activity in healthy Swedish children aged 4.5 y. Design: From 2014 to 2015, 315 children were randomly assigned to an intervention or control group. Parents in the intervention group received a 6-mo mHealth program. The primary outcome was fat mass index (FMI), whereas the secondary outcomes were intakes of fruits, vegetables, candy, and sweetened beverages and time spent sedentary and in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Composite scores for the primary and secondary outcomes were computed. Results: No statistically significant intervention effect was observed for FMI between the intervention and control group (mean +/- SD: -0.23 +/- 0.56 compared with -0.20 +/- 0.49 kg/m(2)). However, the intervention group increased their mean composite score from baseline to follow-up, whereas the control group did not (+ 0.36 +/- 1.47 compared with -0.06 +/- 1.33 units; P = 0.021). This improvement was more pronounced among the children with an FMI above the median (4.11 kg/m(2)) (P = 0.019). The odds of increasing the composite score for the 6 dietary and physical activity behaviors were 99% higher for the intervention group than the control group (P = 0.008). Conclusions: This mHealth obesity prevention study in preschool-aged children found no difference between the intervention and control group for FMI. However, the intervention group showed a considerably higher postintervention composite score (a secondary outcome) than the control group, especially in children with a higher FMI. Further studies targeting specific obesity classes within preschool-aged children are warranted.
