Spray-dried pulse consumption does not affect cardiovascular disease risk or glycemic control in healthy males
Candice N. Cryne,Jesse M. Veenstra,Branden R. Deschambault,Marzouk Benali,M. Marcotte,Joyce I. Boye,Susan M. Tosh,Edward R. Farnworth,Amanda J. Wright,Alison M. Duncan +9 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the effect of chickpea, lentil or pea for 28 days did not significantly affect serum lipids, homocysteine or glycemic parameters in a sample of 21 healthy adult males, indicating the effectiveness of different pulse types on traditional biomarkers of cardiovascular disease as a preventative measure.

La historia del uso de la soya en México, su valor nutricional y su efecto en la salud
TL;DR: The effects of the different components of soy, in particular its protein and the isoflavones on health, the mechanism of action of soy protein to reduce cholesterol and triglycerides, and insulin secretion, as well as its glycemic response, and the recommendations of soyprotein consumption to obtain a health benefit are shown.

Dietary Modulation of the Human Colonic Microbiota: Introducing the Concept of Prebiotics
TL;DR: By combining the rationale of pro- and prebiotics, the concept of synbiotics is proposed to characterize some colonic foods with interesting nutritional properties that make these compounds candidates for classification as health-enhancing functional food ingredients.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of dietary patterns on blood pressure were assessed in a clinical trial, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, where the subjects were fed a control diet that was low in fruits, vegetables, and dairy products, with a fat content typical of the average diet in the United States.

TL;DR: Genistein inhibited the EGF-stimulated increase in phosphotyrosine level in A431 cells and scarcely inhibited the enzyme activities of serine- and threonine-specific protein kinases such as cAMP-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase kinases, and the Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzymeprotein kinase C.

TL;DR: The effect of different foods on the blood glucose levels was fed individually to groups of 5 to 10 healthy fasting volunteers, and a significant negative relationship was seen between fat and protein and postprandial glucose rise but not with fiber or sugar content.

Fruit, vegetables, and cancer prevention: A review of the epidemiological evidence
TL;DR: It would appear that major public health benefits could be achieved by substantially increasing consumption of fruit and vegetable consumption, and in particular in cancers of the esophagus, oral cavity, and larynx, for which 28 of 29 studies were significant.
