Diet and Mental Health: Review of the Recent Updates on Molecular Mechanisms.

TL;DR: Molecular mechanisms underlying the putative beneficial effects toward brain health of different dietary factors, such as micro- and macronutrient intake and habits,such as feeding time and circadian rhythm, are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silibinin Restores NAD⁺ Levels and Induces the SIRT1/AMPK Pathway in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.

TL;DR: Treatment of mice and HepG2 with silibinin abolished oxidative stress, and inhibited PARP activation thus restoring the NAD+ pool, indicating silib inin as a promising molecule for the treatment of NAFLD.

High intake of dietary advanced glycation end-products is associated with increased arterial stiffness and inflammation in subjects with type 2 diabetes

TL;DR: It is suggested that a chronic high dAGE diet could lead to a vascular dysfunction and inflammatory activation, contributing to the development of vascular complications in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polyphenols and neuroprotection: Therapeutic implications for cognitive decline.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the potential mechanisms involved in age-related cognitive decline or early stage cognitive impairment and current evidence from clinical human studies conducted on polyphenols and the aforementioned outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effect of Dietary Polyphenols on Vascular Health and Hypertension: Current Evidence and Mechanisms of Action

TL;DR: In this article , the authors explored existing evidence from studies conducted on humans and summarized the mechanisms of action of dietary polyphenols on vascular health, blood pressure and hypertension, and concluded that adopting a plant-based dietary pattern including a variety of polyphenol-rich foods is an advisable practice to improve blood pressure.
